I need help stopping but i dont wanna go to rehab or tell my family about my use. How can i stop without making a big deal out of it. Ive stopped before only because i got prego then a year later i started using again n i havent stopped since. Any tips on how to stop? Ive been trying by myself little by little by smoking way less then i usually do but theres times when i just say fuck it n smoke the usual amount everyday. Please help! Ill try anything.

Try the book Relapse prevention by alan marlatt.

It's based on CBT so non of that religious junk all the other methods are steeped in (except some meditaiton shit which I didnt like and any book on CBT seems to lever in now days but up to you if you are into it or not ).

Make sure you only get the first edition tho cos the second is just a bunch of anecdotes, not a proper method for sobriety like the first.

You'll just have to stop using it. Delete all the phone numbers of fellow users or dealers, and get rid of your paraphernalia.

Just do it. Mind over matter. It is gonna be the hardest thing you've ever done, there is no easy way around it. Tapering off stimulants isn't an easy proposition. If you're gonna try tapering you need to change your route of administration. If I were you I'd stop smoking and start taking it orally. If you are self medicating for ADD/ADHD symptoms, maybe find a doctor to put you on Adderall and use the Adderall like opiate addicts use methadone.

Keep posting here because if nothing else, at least you'll find support and empathy.

Good luck!

Try stopping on your own. If you cannot do it, then you might need to re-evaluate what you have to do and who you want to tell. How badly do you want to stop and what are you willing to do to stay clean?
