It's the 11th day since I stopped smoking weed, and I'm fiending harder than I have since the first three days. Maybe it's because it's 4/20. There is some synthetic cannabinoid blend around, but I'm not going to smoke it tonight because IM ACTUALLY TRYING TO STAY SOBER. and also I'm worried that if I smoke it I'll just get paranoid about failing a drug test. But I think I am reaching that stage where my brain is reregulating itself and I feel very irritable, anxious...etc...etc. But I'm gonna stay strong. Talking about it with my roommates made me feel better so I thought sharing it with yall would to. <3

hey man this is the first 420 i havent smoked since i was 12 so close to 20 years

just try to do other things to have ya mind else where be strong and u can do it
 
Well I know when I stopped smoking cigs back in the day it took me about 3 weeks for the mental obsessing to go away. And I've also read in a lot of research that 3 weeks tends to be the magic number for forming new habits or breaking old ones. That doesn't apply to hard drug habits imo but for more controlled/daily type habits I believe it does.

Good luck is there any reason other than drug test that you want to stay off it? I fucking love pot lol. Prob the only drug I've ever done that didn't have an obvious negative impact on my life. Although I'm sure it makes me slow or stupid to some degree Ive never really been sure.
 
Honestly, not really. But I did promise my mother I would stay sober for a while, and this whole being sober for more than four hours at a time (not including sleep) is something I haven't experience for about three years.

I'd also feel like kind of an asshole at my AA/NA meetings.
 
I'm smoke free today myself as I have to take a physical for my job and that includes a drug test. Only 3 days in to and its hard when you wake up to "happy 4/20" txts. I know if I do smoke I'll just get paranoid about my drop anyways and not enjoy it.
 
I find playing a lot of video games helps takes my mind off things if that helps.
 
FInd other activities that keep you busy. I play Bass guitar in a band, I DJ, and lpay video games. Also work out // train // etc.
 
this also for me the first weed-free 420 in a loooong time. I'm glad for it though. Weed is insanely addictive, really, even though it's less harmful than other addictive drugs. I would say that I often crave weed more than hard drugs. So it's worth quitting if you spend too much time and money on it and and all it does is make you lazier, hazier and ...... crazier!
 
this is my first 4/20 not smoking since I was 14! and it feels great, although it didn't feel so great at first. I really was regretting why I even wanted to stop smoking, but eventually you'll realize how much better you feel. You may not be sleeping or eating that much right now but trust me it comes back. good luck
 
' You in here for marihuana, marihuanas not a drug.... I used to suck dick for cocaine..You ever suck dick for weed??'

Sorry,i couldnt help myself..its 4:04am and its been a big night..11 days and going strong? You through the worst of it..I had a heavy weed addiction from 13-25.maybe 20 days in all without weed. I was given larezopam to help sleep..try that perhaps? With all the extra time try exersizing..it will wear you out and release endorphines..

A few days and you'll be good to go. Appetite will ho through the roof,and you wont believe the amount of spare time you have...or have wasted on the weed.all the best..sorry to take the piss at the start.
See ya mate, from the land down uder
 
Haha no need to apologize! I felt very awkward at my first AA meeting and kept thinking of that very scene!

Apparently modern day super potent marijuana can actually be addictive, although for me I believe it's a combination of a compulsive personality and chronic boredom more than anything else. I have a friend who claims to go through real detox (throwing up and shit) when she doesn't smoke weed.

There's also very little chance a doc will prescribe me any kind of drug that has a 0.000001% chance of being abused for a while, because although I hadn't yet developed a habit I began dipping my toes in to the cess-pool that is heroin, and they know it.
 
Good to hear you didnt take offense.. How do you go sleeping?? I had insane dreams for 2-3 weeks..but I had a bad habit of waking up at midnight for a grille then straite back to sleep..

Its more of a habituall thing than a physical addiction. It was part of my routine for so long i didnt know what to do with myself? Ended up reading books ( i dont like reading) and enjoying life..

However,not to put u off... But i have ab addictive personality and ended up with first binging on mdma hard out( come down w no weed was faaaaarked) then had a daily coke habit for 7 months and now amphets... Sometimes I wonder,and my mum even says this-maybe I shouldve kept smoking weed???

Watch out with the hammer..or you really will know what a physical addiction withdrawal is all about
 
weed is not addictive IMO, and FOR SURE nobody throws up from withdrawing from weed lol. that person obviously just likes making up stories. it's all in your head man. soon enough you'll enjoy not being high all the time, but for now it will be hard until you get through it. good luck
 
I disagree with the naysayers--weed can be addictive. it all depends on the person's psychology--and how often use is. Anything done regularly for an extended period of time will be come a habit--enjoyment merely reinforces it.

I'm in the same boat you are and 4/20 was indeed a test. I've tried filling my days with work and getting some exercise in towards dusk so i get all the effects weed normally gives: tiredness, hunger, and the endorphin kick from exercise.

It still sucks but 'tis getting better as the time passes

I got excited for a minute

then back to reality


Absolutely, anything can be addictive. What's addictive is not the substance, but the chemical response. In my opinion, anything can give you that feeling.
 
If i were in your shoes I wouldnt smoke the spice (the "Incense") Because its a more powerful high. Its kind of like spooking (Huffing). I've looked it up it kills brain cells and cuts of oxygen to get you high (which I find wierd because to me it just feels like weed but a little more potent).
 
Try some Diphenhydramine about 25mg it helps with anxiety. Or visoril. (Both OTC meds)

Are you sure about that? I've had people tell me the same thing about nitrous and I know that's not true.

FYI, I threw that shit out anyway.
