YoYo waddup waddup what is gooD? Writing this post because I have found myself smoking joint after joint non stop all year round, for the past 10 years. I discovered weed at an early age , started smoking an 8th a day in school because I was selling it, I managed to move a good few ounces a day at 15 years old, every day I was stoned through out my school career, after school it was buying it every single day, not one day goes by that i am not stoned, I have a stoned way of life, I just made an attempt to go the gym, now i can't be bothered and want to buy another bag of weed, get stoned and play xbox.
I NEED HELP!!!!!
Yep, you do. Hopefully Fleur or one of the regulars on the weed board will come by and toss you a line. Go to an NA meeting and talk or listen...pot is addictive no matter what anyone tells you. I smoked for years, but I don't miss it at all...it saps your energy and motivation. The only way to stop is to stop.

Welcome to the board.
I smoked pot for over 25 years every single day of my life. What a waste when I think about it. I haven't touched in more than 3 years and believ me I've never felt better. i'm not a slave to pot anymore.
If you want to quit, the first thing, you must do according to my experience, is that you really, really have to make the decision that you want to quit. Quitting weed is not easy. The first few weeks and months are hard but then it gets easier. Take vitamins, especially Omega 3. Drink lots of water. Go to the gym. Read as much as you can on addictions. I just about read every book a rock and roll musician wrote on his addiction. Go outside for walks. Take care of yourself. Check out the Internet for some marijuana anonymous Web site.
Let us know how you are doing.
Looking forward to reading you again.

Ok So since my first post, I bought that bag of weed, played xbox, watched movies, stayed up all night having joint after joint. By 7am I finished all my weed and slept until 2pm. I woke up, had no weed and what I would usually do is FIND THE MONEY, AND BUY MORE WEED. But not today, today I went STRAIGHT TO THE GYM!!! I ran for hours on end, done some weight lifting, then back to running. I Discovered today That I LOVE RUNNING and that my Nike Air Max Really are amazing running shoes!!!
After the gym I sat in the sauna for half an hour, where I met two apprentice pot heads talking about how their going to get kicked out of school for smoking, They went to the same school as me And they Knew me, because I Beatboxed at a school Talent show on my last day of school, I was higher than a motheruf***er during my performance, They remembered me from that and encouraged me to do more with my beatboxing.
When I left the sauna I felt slightly motivated, even though my whole body was aching, I felt like hopping on to a bus into the city, going to an open mic night and doing a beatbox. But naaah I was to tired, now I am home and realising that all this time, I have been taking part in stupid childish f***ing games, I havnt let my mind and brain grow strong and smart, Im still a stupid little f***ing kid like these kids I see in school, I havnt changed a bit since school.
I have no education, and I can't drive because I totalled my own mothers car, I took it out drink driving one night when I was 16, I wrote the car off and was caught by the police.
Now as I try to piece my life together I realise, I have no education, no job, no girlfriend and no car. All I really have is my health and the ability to roll a good joint.
Im 18 years old, 19 in 2 months, Its time for me to grow up, make a man out of myself, find an educational route to take and stick to it for 3 years, so by the time I'm 23 I'm qualified enough to get into a University.
I have nothing to do for a year, I can VERY EASILY buy an 8th a day for the next year, or stop smoking, keep up the gym and find a good path to take.
Much appreciation to the website counsellors, GOD BLESS you guys, I can't explain this to my Mum, Dad or Brothers Because they would Be Heartbroken, they already know my situation and that I am a big time pot head.
yours sincerely

Sounds like you're off to good start...what's up for tomorrow? Check back in...
Way to go Ganjaddict!
You are doing great. Keep it up. The first few days, you will feel tired. You wil feel like something is missing in your life and of course that will be the habitual daily joint. But don't let it get to you. When that happens, take a nap, go to the gym, go outside for a walk, drink water, listen to music, read, come here and spill out your guts and say all that you've got to say. Don't let temptation get you. Mind over matter, mind over matter, mind over matter!

Ok so still not bought any weed, today I slept in till about 4pm. Woke up and went straight to the bank, had to take money out for a dealer who let me "borrow" a bag of weed for a couple weeks.
When I was out I ran into a few hood rats, they were rolling up so I stayed, socialised and had a few cheeky tokes.
As I allow time to let all the fog clear out my brain, I feel myself growing wiser to the real world, Its hard out there for guys like me to make it with education, how am I ever going to move out of my moms house? get a wife? get a car? get a job? or run a successful business?
I have to screw my head on big time,
Pray For Me.
God Bless

Ok so since my first post Iv been to the gym ONCE, every other day has been a ganj binge, seriously, joint after joint, the money goes fast, and the weed goes faster, I have a serious problem, I don't think I can EVER stop it, seriously. My body and brain is to dependant on it, My body NEEDS that burn of a joint going down my throat, constantly.
However when i amnt stoned everything is a lot more easy and simple, I can conversate easier etc etc. When Im stoned All I need is my xbox and junk food on end, and some hip hop.
seriously but, I don't know what its going to take to quit, because I can't, No one around me smokes it, no one around me asks me for social smokes, I AM THE ONE, that is around others, constantly supporting the drug, and using it, Its me who is the pier pressure, I am the bad influence If you get me???
How the hell can I stop my habit, the gym obviously isn't the answer, WILL POWER is the answer I think...... but it seems I have no will power... please man, how the hell can I quit this s*** :(:(:(

Ganja,
Nobody said quitting weed was easy. It was the most difficult thing I ever did. I smoked weed for more than 25 years on a daily basis. Yes, at first its really hard but you can do it. Just put it in your head that you don't want so be stoned all the time, that you would rather not smoke weed and enjoy life on its onn terms. I have a bunch of friends who smoke weed, and sometimes even around me but that doesn't mean because they smoke it, that I have to smoke it.Quitting weed was my own personal decision. I wanted to stop being a darn slave to the darn thing. I was sick and tired of spending money on weed, looking for it, getting it, being miserable if I didn't have it, having to hide to smoke it, etc. etc. but most importantly I was sick and tired of being stoned all the time.
Make the decision not to smoke weed. Its not the end of the world. Take it an hour at a time, a day at a time, half a day at a time if that is what is needed. Everyday that you don't smoke a joint, reward yourself with something. I bought myself something every month that I went without weed with all the money that I saved. I even went on a trip to Brazil after having quit for a year. I've bought myself books, jewelry, cloths, paid for a yoga instructor course. I could go on and on and on.
You are young. Enjoy life. You do not need weed to go through life. Go out and take a walk as many times as you have to during the day and enjoy nature.
Also, go to the drugstore and get some Omega 3-6-9. I found that helped me alot and plus drink water until you feel you can't drink anymore.
Let us know how you are doing. Be strong.

Hi Ganja
You are making a good start by realising that you want to quit. Smoking is a way of life - but its not the way you want, you want to make things better and get that education. Once you tell your mind that a clean body is what you want, you will find it does get easier to control your mind.
Fleur helped me alot - it will only do you good to listen to her she knows!
Strongs and love!

Theirs so many people on here confused. Cannabis doesen't contain a single addictive substance, though you can become habitually addicted to it. Don't blame the weed, it is ultimately down to you how often you smoke, your not addicted to heroin, and believing your a slave to the weed will only make the addiction stronger. Addiction is actually more of a dependency, especially in most of the western world were its illegal to possess, making quality inconsistent and prices extortionate, the most damaging part of the dependency from personal experience is the anxiety experienced just to make sure you have a few joints to smoke. In an ideal world, this anxiety wouldn't exsist because we could grow our own. The lack of motivation people claim they have because they smoke weed is a sorry excuse for there own laziness, stop smoking throughout the day and just smoke before bed, if you don't have the mental discipline to achieve at least this, then you should really consider quitting all together which is extremely simple, you simply STOP, you'll toss and turn for a few nights, your mind will run away with outrageous thoughts, slight paranoia, but in all honest there are no physical withdrawal symptoms, it's all I'm your head. I stopped for 6 months to prove to myself I could, then started again like I never stopped, 8th a day usually in the evening now. In a world were weed is still largely illegal, stoners have an obligation, I believe, to use it responsibly and not give the corrupt media institutions more ammo to turn the unbothered masses into more anti-weed drones.
helpful.
I've been hooked on weed for few years an I haven't got the will power to completely quit. Iv stopped a couple of times for a week or so but once I get the idea of getting a bag into my head its just a matter of time because its too easy and next minute its in my hand. An iv recently iv got in the habit of getting a more harder drug which is just as easy. I want to nip this in the bud b4 im addicted agen. Please can anyone tell me of any tricks I can do to take my mind off it wen it comes into my head. I really want to stop for good. B4 I f*** everything up. Please any suggestions??????
