Hello amber:

I've been smoking a little longer than you - bout 40 years. The cool thing about pot, is you can just stop with no ill effects. I've stopped dozens of times over the years. It ain't no big deal. Oh, you'll feel anxious for a few days, but that's all.

If you can't do that, then you have bigger problems than smoking dope.

It may not be physically addicting but it is habit forming, not that easy to just quit when you've been living the high life for a while. Cold turkey is the way to go but if you can't, cut back more and more until you can kick it. You'll save a ton of cash in the process.

You are not dependent upon marijuana - you only think you are. Just stop using it and try looking at life again and you'll see that you don't act stupid any longer. Apparently you have forgotten how to be sober. If you don't get a kick out of it or get high any longer it means that you are getting immune to it and have to do more and more to get high or the THC content is not that much in whatever you are now smoking. Just quit cold turkey and you won't suffer any withdrawl like alcohol or cocaine.

Just stop, in my younger wilder day but it is a matter of will power. You stop, so you get bothered a few days.
If and when you really want to stop you can.

I have been toking for about 24 years,stopping for the odd week or 2 here and there.stuff in the uk is really bad some of it sprayed with fibre glass beads that they use in the white line for road marking ! also heard that some has been sprayed with lead ,putting people in hospital in germany ! not good why can`t the government make it legal to grow a few plants for personal use over here.Gordon brown our current dictator wants to re classify it back to a b rating going against all the advice from the medical profession,i wanna move to canada or dam..Just stop smoking if i can do it anyone can !
If you roll your joints with tobacco that will do far more harm than the weed

i smoke a lot of pot. i love it. and really, pot is not addictive. it has no element in it that makes it addictive. you just have to keep in mind you control the mj, it doesnt control you. if the ganja lost its effect, how is it affecting you then? and you know, if you FORCE yourself not to eat when your high, you can actually LOSE a lot of weight because youll train your body to say no to food when your craving it [not to the point where you starve yourself though] and when you get hungry, DRINK TEA! its the best

On one occasion i stopped smoking for 3 weeks when i went to greece to get married.Didn`t wanna risk taking any with me ,so bit the bullet and stopped.
On returning to the Uk i was all ready to give up for good ,but a freind had a batch of killer White Widdow so could not help myself !
Had had a couple of cans of stella the night i indulged smoked a fat one,then wanted to go for a pee,while i was standing up having a pee i blacked out and fell to the floor,my feet were up against the door so my wife could not get in to see what had happened,i came round on the floor got up walked into the bedroom and passed out again.
My wife got me to phone the nurse,i explained what had happened,the nurse told me not to smoke weed and drink alcohol at the same time...Good advice

I have been smoking for a year and a half myself... at least 10 joints per day. I used to smoke with a good friend of mine and one day we just got over saturated and it made us not even appreciate a joint from then on... we decided to quit.. I was not that bad but because he smoked for a lot longer (10 years) he fell into deep depression and paranoia... he is suffering from insomnia and hates himself and all around him... he belives that everyone hates him and is plotting against him.... My advice to you If you are abusing smoking... I mean more than 4 joints per day it will eventually really screw your head... If however you can limit it to a couple of joints per week there is no harm in it.... Its so easy to quit... but you have to do it in time before it will be too late.
