How to quit smoking weed.?!
Question: i have been smoking very often (at least 5 times per week) for about 6 years now. 95% of my friends smoke, most people i meet smoke...so its not like i can just take it out of my life easily. i really like smoking weed, it is the only thing that relaxes me after a hard day of work (i dont really drink too often). i like being high and doing pretty much anything when im high.
the main downsides that are causing me to want to quit are: i tend to be too lazy and antisocial, i cant keep up a decent conversation with someone i dont know...mainly girls (when im high). my work has not really suffered, because i love what i do and can do it even when im high. it is impossible for me to "only smoke sometimes or rarely". it is all or nothing for me. i have tried to quit many time and the longest ive gone is 3-4 months. i just cant imagine my life 100% without weed...but i need to meet some girls and i dont right now

First of all, a word of encouragement - good job with your decision to quit! If you've done it for 3-4 months, that's better than most people, so just try to make your goal a little bit higher. Tell yourself you'll quit for 4 months and when you reach your benchmark, keep it going for another month and before you know it, you'll be out of the woods. =)
Try to pick up a hobby that'll consume your time. The busier you get, the less time your brain will have to worry about your addiction.
Good luck and I hope this helps.
Start doing cocaine!!! You will forget all about that weed in no time at all!!!! Ha-Ha-Ha!!!
cold turkey - or dont quit
Attend NA meetings
go to a clinic no joke. you are addicted pretty bad.
Just get help from a friend who doesnt smoke and have him hangout with you and make sure you dont buy any or you can go to a counsler
the first step for quitting weed is to get it out of your life.
give me your bag, any bongs, one hitters, bubblers, pipes, vaporizers, roaches, resin balls, shake, everything.
trust me.
well yeah thats the concequences
but i understand.
my advice is just to put it down, get rid of it and dont pick it up again. keep yourself busy with other things.
the best way to quit smoking is to QUIT SMOKING.
find some stoner chicks. chicks like to get high too. but quiting is nothing, its not addictive, so just dont do it. everyone i know smokes, and when i quit, it didnt bother me to be around it at all. so either just do it, or dont.
To be able to quit, you have to actually want to quit, not just want to get laid.
I have been smoking for eight years, every single day, and my husband and I recently decided that we want to quit and are lucky enough to have each other as support, but the key is WANTING to quit!
YEAH. i've been there before..weed is stupid ...at least to me it is right now, i could care less what other people think about it right now. And it's not like I am just judging people who smoke it, bc i used to go out with someone who did it 6 7 times a day, and I did it too but i realized how ridiculous it was and stopped. I don't need weed to make me feel "relaxed or happy" FUCKK that. I care more about my life, and don't wish to ruin it with weed F that.
That's IT?!?!?, weekly?????????????? shut up! you're just trying to attract some underage hoochies and seem like a "Bad ***". Come on, grow up and stop if you want to! The only thing you're addicted to is attention.
i dont think you're physically addicted at all if thats what your afraid of. the problem is your mentally addictive because you use weed as a crutch to get through the day. if you want to quit, start working on the areas of your life that you think smoking improves. if its your social life, work a little harder to make new friends and branch out. have that group of friends youve always wanted. you may think smoking makes you more of a smooth talker to the ladies, and maybe it does. quitt now and try to break out of that shell. maybe youll find you never needed it to begin with. nows the time so seize the day...
I hate to say this, but it sounds like you are a firm believer in the notion that smoking weed ought to be ok for you. When it comes to people like you (and I am really trying not to be condescending, I am sorry if it sounds that way) I think you need a good slap in the face. I have lost some friends and family to drug addiction - and I am not making the comparison between weed and meth/heroin/cocaine - and addiction is just rotten. If you want to be rid of it, just keep smoking it. Eventually you might end up in trouble with the law. Enough times of it, you might end up in prison. Having your temperature taken with a meat thermometer from a guy named Molly might just be enough to cause you to give it up.
I believe that weed is addictive and no one can change my mind on that. However, to get away from any type of drug or alcohol addiction is to get out of the environment you are in, find new friends that do not abuse drugs, whether its marijuana or over the counter drugs, or even prescription drugs. Form other habits to meet other people; bowl, go to church, etc. To stay off of any drugs you have to stay away from EVERYONE who abuses drugs. You can also go to Narcotics Anonymous which people hesistate to do, but its actually quite great and makes you feel good in addition to keeping you off of drugs. Most of all, you have to WANT to be drug free! Good Luck!
If your Friends are smoking as well as u, and you want to stop... Then you need to get better friends. Apparenty your current friends are "Dope Heads" And there are better people out there. But Either way if u dont want to loose yoiur firends then tell them ur quitting, Stop Immidently, and dont even think about doing ti again, Maybe take up Ciggerattes?
you really dont need to quit. quitting gives it a title which just sucks and means commitment.
just cut back... make it so that you only smoke when you need relief. that's what i'm doing about smoking cigarettes. only smoke when you're really edgy and start to freak out. maybe when you're tense but then hold off.
find a distraction. take up knitting or something meditative. read a book maybe? or just sleep instead. find a good video game. i hear WoW is good ;)
you could always change your friends
or set aside a smaller amount of money to buy weed with so you have less and want it to last longer. get a smaller bowl. or have a spliff instead of a joint.
or you could smoke some not so potent pot for a while with a maximum amount per sitting and get used to how that feels. you could cut back to just the weekends.
i like the relief smoking better. so far it's worked the best for me when ever i've tried to quit.
DONT TAKE UP CIGARETTES
it just gives you another addiction to handle in the future. same with drinking. if you need another addiction make it a productive one. smoking is bad for your lungs anyway.
you could always take up baking. the other kind of baking.
in my 17 years of living i have NEVER heard of anyone being addicted to weed!! its not like its coke or meth or evn x if fukin weed.. which comes from a plant and isnt mixed with any kind of chemicals... i think that u just like bein a pot head and bein lazy... like seriously if u really dont wanna be on weed as much as u r now then u would find a way to let it go!!
but i'll be ur friend!!
