Has anybody had lasting success using weed as means to stay clean? If I just smoke a bowl when I get a craving for something else, i tend to forget about it and ease into a nice mellow weed high.
 
That's how I stay clean from dope , I smoke pot everyday and it really helps me to not think about using heroin. Marijuana is a magical gift from the Gods =D
 
I think it can definitely help as long as you don't smoke too much weed. If you start smoking too much your tolerance will skyrocket and you'll stop getting "high enough," and before you know it your mind will start wandering towards the harder drugs.

If you can do it in relative moderation that would be best (like wait until evening to smoke instead of smoking all day, every day).
 
For me I still got cravings for opiates when I tried this method of smoking weed instead. Like no amount of weed really did it for me, or obviously recreated that feeling I get from opiates, like I was trying to trick myself into thinking.

It does it's job for a little while but for me eventually I still got the cravings and wanted something more.
 
for me, i unknowingly quit smoking cigarettes upon starting to blaze on a regular basis. havent bought a pack in months and i never even planned on quitting haha!

Congrats on the quitting!!! :)

I seem to crave a cigarette even more after smoking weed though. I don't know it's like the icing on the cake kind of thing.
 
this is one of the main reasons cannabis should be legalized

i just recently quit smoking cigarettes, when i smoke weed i get massive cravings.. lucky you :)
 
Yeah i started using ecstasy/speed friday and saturday nights now that i smoke up more i dont get the urge because im so chilled out from the bud, now i lean towards LSD every month or so, it has changed my perspective on other drugs alot! and id say for the better
 
My friend used it for opiate withdrawal but I dont think its too effective. He swears it does help a bit to take your mind off of it but not too much especially with the pain in the beggining stages
 
helped me permanently kick cocaine and cigarettes.

also helps me cut down on my drinking when i'm aiming to do that.
 
seems to me less people would be addicted to nicotine if weed was legal.

OT - i find weed to be a trigger..once i get high i want something else to spice up the experience. i couldn't be happy just doing one drug all the time. have to have some variety.
 
weeds my primary addiction, so i guess it does stop me from using harder drugs, but i usually dont want do harder drugs unless i have a pot supply so it pretty much a double edged sword. for me weed is far more addictive than any opiate go figure
 
keeps me from drink and blow, two drugs which are far more harmful than herb could ever be
 
I agree that smoking a lot of bud will make you crave something harder once your tolerance builds. actually, weed helped me pretty much quit smoking cigarettes and it really killed my taste for alcohol. i'm really glad for that
 
Yup I used it for staying away from harder drugs for three months now and it still works. Haven't been so clean in like two years.
 
if you read through my post history, i've had a pretty extensive drug use past.

above average i would say.

I now exclusively smoke weed only, i'll drink maybe once in a blue moon, but i don't even smoke ciggs anymore.

I only smoke weed now. it has helped me quit everything including smack and ciggs.
 
wonderful isn't it? my best mate and i find MJ incredably useful for this purpose.

when we felt 'the itch' before we would go out and get wrecked on massive cocktails of drugs; acid, shrooms, mdma, ketamine (with spliff and beers ontop). now when we get 'the itch' we just get totally ripped, like to the point where you can barely lift the spliff for the next toke and end up with half a cookie in your lungs because you cant stop laughing.

probably helps that we're getting headies rather than nasty-ass mids nowadays.
