I Need Support.

[TheHundred$]

Hey everyone.

I really have grown to like this forum a lot. Even before I registered I have been browsing this forum pretty much since Recovery was announced as Relapse 2. I almost wish I would have signed up then because I would have a pretty decent post count.

Anyways since I get on this forum everyday I decided that I could make that a useful part of my day. I have some problems that I want to fix that I have wanted to overcome for sometime and I have not had the willpower or motivation to do so. I though hmm maybe I could post my problems on this forum and keep a log.

I will start off by telling you what I want to accomplish and some details.

I love to smoke Marijuana, it started out when I was younger with doing it occasionally, then as I got older in highschool it has become everyday since. I know people say you can't be addicted to Marijuana but I think mentally you can. When all your buddies smoke weed just as much and when your whole immediate family smokes weed it's kinda hard to avoid. I want to quit because... Well it has just made me damn right lazy, it gave me terrible grades in college and it has basically made me a bum. Not to mention that I am numb to everything... Nothing is as fun as it with weed, I just wanna sit home, I dont go do as many things and I have this overall feeling of depression and worthlessness.
I tried to quit a few times and recently made it a week but soon I tried just one more puff and there I am again smoking everyday.

I want to quit smoking starting Monday July 12th. I just was wondering if I post about how I am doing and how far I have made it would you guys all give me feedback and support? I realize I am just a nobody right now but I promise I'm here to stay. Once I overcome this problem maybe I would try some other ones.

Sorry for the long post.

That was a nice read man,I feel you tho,had similar problem.I think that if you really foucus you could stop.But it`ll be harder for you since all your friends and people around you smoke so they`ll always be like:"c`mon take just one,it wont make any difference"and shit like that,but it will make difference,once you try it again you`re fucked.So at least for 1st few weeks try to not be as much with those people as you want,its a sacrifice you need to make if you really want to quit.Plus if you have a strong will you can be with them,but still be careful.Its easy to start but hard to quit,I hope you can make it

Of course we'll support you. We're family.

And I agree with what BILI said, try to stay away from those people for a while, and you should make it.

I'm glad you're thinking of quitting and i wish you the best of luck with it, but can I just ask why you're quitting on that particular day? Surely if you really wanted to quit, then you'd quit straight away?

Thanks!

and @ sophie I am quitting on monday because I know I am going to smoke this weekend and I want to kinda get it out of my system by toking it up before I have to give it up and well.. get it out of my system lol. I think Monday would be a fresh start at the beginning of the week and if I set a day to do it, it makes it easier than just saying okay i'm starting now. I can now enjoy the weekend and smoke it up knowing that on monday its D Day.

[classthe_king]

It really is, anyone who says they are addicted to weed is a pussy

Really good decision homie , you can do it if you really want, you only need to amuse yourself with something else bro (exchange your hobby to a healthy activity), i recommend you leave this forum ASAP and amuse yourself with something in your real life such as your favorite sport and never make tipsy with these materials again . Internet makes pple sorta lazy you need some real movement

Good Luck

Best thing to do is if your ever tempted, just think of all the reasons you wanted to quit in the first place. All the bad things that happen when your addicted. Maybe like write a list of all the good reasons to quit and then you can look over it if your tempted.

Also give your self some sort of motivation. Like the money you'd usualy spend on weed - put like half of it aside and aim to buy something nice or something you really want with it. That way, you have something to motivate you to not spend it on weed.

Good luck and dont get disheartened if you smoke again after your starting datees. That could easily happen - it aint gunna be a really quick process that means you suddenly stop. Just think about the negatives rather than the positives.
