Want to stop smoking pot?

Question

Been a smoker for about 10yrs and want to try to give up but need help. I went on a holiday and was unable to smoke my usual daily amount but because of being away from it all i didn't seem to care (very surprising)!

I ended up being able to have some a day and a half after nothing and instantly noticed a bad change in my personality and parenting style.

Now I'm back home i can't seem to stay away from it.

Help please i just want to be normal.....

Answer 1

all i can say is push...just stay as far away as you can from it, thats what i do because i have an athletic career ahead of me

Answer 2

consult wid a doc ... seek medical help

Answer 3

if you want to stop then just stop. if you have side effects then you have become mentally addicted and need counseling.

though its not physically addictive mentally you can get hooked just like, food, shopping, gambling, etc.  

Answer 4

Pot is not physically addicting. So,  just quit like I did.  Stop it, just stop it..... I took courses at the local community college and read books to arrive at a fantasy.  Pot makes you fantasize  That is all So fantasize doing something else....You can wean yourself off by drinking beer or wine..

Answer 5

just think of how horrible it is that you are a pot-smoking parent.  change your lifestyle, and get rid of all your pothead friends.  you are an adult, and a parent.  start acting like it.

Answer 6

If you want to stop, you will have to have the will power to do it. Attend MA (marijuana anonymous) meetings, do it for your health, or, and this is a biggie, do it because your kids deserve a mother who is drug free, wants them to be healthy (not breathing second hand smoke), is not high around them, has her wits about her in case of an emergency, etc. Good luck.

Answer 7

its hard...just get a bunch of people who care about you and support you to help. Give them all your pot and tell them not to let you have any, and make sure they check on you everyday. Its much easier if you have people there trying to help you through it.
