Drug testing with marijuana use?

Question

i am in my 40's and have smoked pot most of my life. i now only smoke on occasion and am trying to quit. i have custody of my 1 year old grandaughter. her mother walked out on her when she was 4 weeks old. she now has a lawyer and is bringing me back to court. i am so afraid they are gonna drug test me and i will lose my grandaughter. what do i do? please help!!!!!!!

Answer 1

You should quit but if it's too late to quit (like less than a month until court) then you should take Niacin. It has some bad effects of your body (ie sweating, redness, etc) but it will help you keep your granddaughter. But really TRY to quit!

Answer 2

I hate to break the bad news to you but they hair test and they will know you have used and how long. I know people who have tried to use products but most don't work. The labs are pretty good and if it comes back inconclusive you are screwed too.

But, if you can show the court that you have quit and overall you have been a good parent, the Judge might still view it in your favor. There are so many factors involved. Talk to a lawyer and be honest with him.

My heart goes out to you..I wish they would just legalize pot !

Answer 3

I found a technique called Emotional Freedom Technique ie EFT. It is not drug related nor is it any cost to you to quit. I had a friend who was smoking pot and had him use it. He had no cravings after using it once. You can find the information for EFT at www.emofree.com  It is free to join, and there are forums for extra help. I recommend you get a coach to get you past the psychological cravings. No. Pot is not physically addicting, but it is a powerful habit to stop. I know. I'm married to a pot smoker, and to be honest, it drives me nuts. It is not healthy either. Your grand daughter is more important. Think of how this will affect her, in the long run, if she is taken away and replaced again.

Answer 4

stop smoking. marijuana is not addicting so just stop. ur granduaghter is more important

Answer 5

You have absolutely NO CHOICE but to quit.

COMPLETELY.

Once you get past the first four or five days, you won't even miss it. Pot is not addictive in the classic, medical sense of the word. But it is a very stubborn habit.

You'll just have to replace it with something else.

Like one or two glasses of wine. NO MORE.

Answer 6

Stop buying or growing it(Cut off your source)...then you won't have the temptation to smoke it. THEN....the problem is all gone.  It comes down to a plant or your grandaughter.  In my opinion a human life is much more important than a drug, and if you want to quit anyway, just do it now.  The longer you keep "trying" the longer you won't quit.  Honestly, you have full control of what you do, so please take responsibility and quit your habit, so you can fully care for your grandaughter, who I'm sure you love.

Answer 7

stop smoking and if you lose because of the smoking it serves you right

Answer 8

First thing to do is quit. It takes a week to get out of your system I think. And dont eat anything with Poppy seeds in it, that can pop positive too.
