stop smoking marijuana

I started out only smoking 2 to three times a month but it quickly became an everyday thing. I feel as though its the only thing that keeps me happy. I want t try and quit but I know its going to be very hard.

I have been smoking for the last 4yrs and would like to stop. I am married with 3 kids and my hubby and I smoke. I only smoke once a day at night when the kids go to sleep. To some smokers thats not a lot of times, but I still want to quit. I hate smoking I have tried so many time but always hop back on the wagon. It’s hard becuase my husband smokes and when I try to quit he doesn’t. Being around it just makes me want to smoke more. Like the others it’s a habit. I get a little buzz but nothing I should want to do because there is no benefits from it. I find that when I have something to do I dont think about it much. I was happy to find this site, because I know that I am not the only one that is having a hard time quiting. I will try not to smoke tonight. Maybe I will start a smoke journal or something. or start slow and only smoke on the weekends. we’ll see. I ahve said all this before and I am still smoking. :( :( :( :(

My friends and I smoke weed very regularly and I’ve had enough now, but its going to be hard because they have no intention of stopping and they always smoke in front of me. But I am going to give it 100%, and I hope that next month I will be off it for good.

I’ve been a toker for 30 years now. I have quit twice before for extended periods, but have been regularly smoking for 5 years now and every time I stop I absolutely come unglued. I don’t really have a choice now, I spend most of my time trying to get away from my wife and kids to have a bowl or two and then lie around in a stupor, and then repeat the cycle. I just want a new life, without the lies and the desire to die. I really have a lot going for me, talent intelligence, people like me, but I always let them down, because I’m such an out of control fiend. It’s day 3, and I’m feeling no stronger. I can really empathize with the other posters; I’m a mess, and the only way out is through the misery. I feel like such a pussy.

Hmmmm.

Quitting is going to be hard for me.

I live in Canada, there are only two other countries on the PLANET according to UN statistics that smoke more weed on a regular basis than us, and they’re both poor African nations.

My country is unreal for smoking pot, Ontario; my province, has been deemed the highest rated area for adult marijauana consumption on the planet, at an astonishing 32%. Yes 32% of Ontario’s 13 million residents smoke marijuana on a regular basis, and I’m one of them.
We put Jamaican’s to shame, TOO SHAME. I went there, and felt America had a higher pot following than jamaicans. They usually have bunk outdoor shit that got no attention payed to.

The reason Canada has the craziest chron is cause of our climate, and our consumption rate. With a high consumption rate, theres a high demand, which means it needs to be grown year round. Which means for half the year, all of the marijauna going around is the DOPEST INDOOR/HYDRO shit ever, because our climate is so cold. This turns weed growing into a science for Canadians, because we have to create tropical environments indoors for them, and the end result is a perfectly CONTROLLED environment for Chronic growing, thus producing the best chronic the world has ever smoked. I mean when its -25 outside in January, you really should be growing that shit with equipment to ensure its survival and success.

Marijauana is everywhere, it dirt cheap, any time I’ve been outside of Ontario, or Canada, the pot is more expensive, and the POT IS SHITTIER. Dealers in the US sell their dope with labels and names, then slap on expensive prices. But in Canada they just say how it was grown, and it’s dirt cheap, and the pot is better than any “og kush” or “purple haze” you’d get in America. It’s either Hydro, Outdoor, or Indoor Organic. All of which are scrupmtious.

There are constant marijuana busts in my town of only 25,000. And if you go for a nature walk on any of the trails during august your more than likely to stumble accross a planet.

For the just of it. I live in one of the hardest areas to quit smoking marijauna because its mentioned and talked about everywhere. It’s on the TV, the radio, with your friends, on the street. I walk down the street and have to walk by frigin “Purple Haze Bong Shops”, “Happy Daze Head Shop”, and “Altered Native Parlour”, with all these crazy ads for bongs, and chronic.

I need to quit, but it’s going to be impossible with the constant reminders, and dirt cheap prices. It’s kind of hard living here without hooking up a bag of tree, because cops don’t give a shit about it, teachers smoke it, doctors smoke it, everyone smokes it, everyone has it. I’ve literally seen a 90 year old woman with a cane, take a huge rip of a bong for her first time, and just walk away like it was nothing at the Marijauana Festival Week in Toronto.

Enough’s enough, everything I do is weed related, and I just need to quit.

Any suggeswtions?

I have been an extremely heavy smoker for a few years now (1.5-2 oz per week). It started when i was sixteen and was a lot more casual back then. Now as soon as i leave class i light up on campus property (its pathetic). As soon as i get home im twisting one up, its like i cant enjoy a second of life without smoking. I dont even really get high anymore. All my friends here at school are based on weed smoking. I barely know one person who doesn’t smoke. I am bi-polar and off meds for a few weeks now (my dr wants me to quit smoking weed so in my infinite wisdom i quit taking the pills and bought a qp). Its been 2 weeks since ive been on the pills and i am slipping back into bad places. I realize that if the meds are going to work properly and if i am to have any relief from this disorder i must quit smoking. Its just so difficult because its engrained in my every day habit. Its such a large part of my life, i feel utterly useless and pathetic.

I have too much periphenalia to break it or throw it away (>$5000). Ive began selling it off, thinking of buying another dirt bike with the money in hopes that i can ride all summer instead of sitting in a dark room watching movies and tv smoking blunt after blunt. I feel i am too weak to conquer this.. I keep thinking about the roaches piled up in an ash tray at home. I want to smoke them so bad but i dont at the same time. I havent smoked since last night, but so much drama (not pot related) has happened since then and i cant calm down. I hope i can be strong till the end of the night.

Has anyone else had problems concentrating without weed? I love biochemistry but i cant get my head into it without being high. Maybe its just not for me

ever since after my christmas break i have thought about quitting smoking weed nearly daily. I have not smoked weed all day and was online searching marijuana when i stumbled upon this site. a sign? I am scared to quit, and am unsure why. But i know if i sat down and though about it i’d come up with some reasons. All my friends smoke weed. My boyfriend. Will life be boring without it? Will i get moody? Sad? I am unsure. And this scares me. I am dying to smoke that little nug i’ve got but am trying to be stronger….better than that. This is hard. I hope i can do this.

I quit. Im not a junkie. Im not a loser. I am not a addictt. I am stronger. I am better. I will not settle for less I will kick it and it will be apart of my past. I do not like the people in association with it. I do not like how I act under the influence. I do not want my kids to follow me!!! NEW DAY NEW ME!!! EVERYBODY STAY STRONG AND MAKE A TO DO LIST AND DO THE LIST NO MATTER WHAT!!! DO NOT ANWSER YOUR PHONE OR STRAY FROM YOUR TO DO LIST AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO BREAK THE HABIT.

Its night one.Wake up from sleep,.Edgy.I cant let this get in the way of my Art and get anti social.I think if i put ice in a bong and hit it,just once,get that in control,tell my chick to stop harrassing me on the low 2 do it…It will be better.Baby steps.
I tried 2 save my brother from drugs,got into God heavy,he died on the mfn floor at 19.8yrs ago right.So ive made 90 days before…boring. My sinuses get fd up from bud.Gotta do something,but its one of the few things I dig.Quitting is bs for me without a Miracle.So Im hoping,but being realistic of my days to in a Fd up world,war,disease,economy….Gustopo goverments.OH GOD!!!
Well at least I cut back and be aware,maybe eat it as well.
But a blame game in my heart for my Brother…because im mister NO BUD…face reality wierd S.Cant do it.A Miracle or,ice,and slow down.Its a blame game with or without,and I tried and im trying now and FTW.Me as a no bud,no Snoop Dogg White Boi does not work for this Artist.Sorry people.I love U,But Fuc the world.Armageddon is on the brink society is a aggresive sriful A-HOLE And I dont care.But I will try.

Well I’m not feeling so frusterated today. I’ve accepted that I’m broke and I simply can’t afford any pot right now. My kids come first. I’ve decided to use this current situation to attempt to keep my brain focused on anything but pot. I’ll make it through the night, accept I may not have many friends left. I was visiting a fellow Chronic, who was out too. But she had a friend coming to visit, and well I actually felt Jelous because she was also talking about going to the food bank, and asking for only a few items. Meanwhile I’m literally wasting away, trying to make sure my kids don’t go hungry. So I concluded although I am jelous and pissed off, it is ultimatly MY PROBLEM. And well, only one person can deal with it. ME I need luck LOL
I am going to join Belly Dance lessons.
