Ways of quitting cannabis

I totally agree with stroonz, that's basicly what I've been trying to say but many people here know I don't word things so well and take different approaches to make my point..

but to everything you said- definately. Like to stop smoking weed, you just need to stop smoking, and willpower, not much at that. The worste that has happened from smoking daily and then stopping, to me, is being a little depressed, but without any craving for weed, because I don't go to weed to make me feel better when i'm in need, rather to improve things.

I think if you start to look at weed like coffee, something you need daily, and not a drug that needs respect, that is when problems arise.. It seems to have alot to do with a healthy "relationship" with the weed.
 
ermm...shit ok i'll say it again.
hey the whinner and big stroonz, you guys are wrong. Absolutely positively 100% incorrect. and do you realize how many times you have contradicted yourselves in just the last 2 posts alone?
i would point it out and post it but i am already feeling wrong about even posting again on this thread, and feel like asshole.
and besides, just opinion...but I don't think the OP is even real. I mean the more I looked it over it kinda seems like someone made that up with the intention of then replying to and arguing against it.

haha just my imagination probably ~~

If it's real, thats cool. someone trying to gather info on helping another out of a harmful or problematic lifestyle. sounds like a kind woman.
dude it has been pouring rain here,with intense thunder one day!so rare for my town. I might be a little frazzled,

if i don't smoke i cant eat, sleep, and i get terrible sweats when i'm asleep.
Enough proof that for ME marijuana is addictive, and my body is accustomed to being high and is affected by lack of thc.
 
I was forced to quit because I moved to a place where I couldn't grow it. About 6 years of daily smoking the best stuff you can get. I was a bit cranky for a couple of weeks and had some trouble sleeping...but alcohol took care of that problem. Quitting weed was cake compared to cigarettes or smack

In medical literature? What's your point. In medical literature you can also find doctors saying that Cannabis causes Cancer... you can find just about anything in medical literature when it comes to Cannabis.

robble robble robble, "you're wrong I'm right, btw you contradicted yourselves."

LOL Where in any of my posts in this thread have I contradicted myself. I've been consistent with my story and information... pfffttt

If you cant contribute to this thread, using examples that are sound. Then just don't bother posting at all. If you're going to be one of those internet d-bags, as I mentioned before. Who just comes into this thread to start trouble, without having any data to back up their statements. Then why waste your time?

If you think Cannabis is addictive, that's your problem. It's not addictive. If you abuse it, then you try to quit, and it becomes troublesome. That has nothing to do with the plant itself. Plenty of people have quit successfully after smoking for LONG periods of time without any problems. Other people do have a problem, you know why they do? They lack discipline. Blaming it on the plant, is just ridiculous. There's more people who can quit without a problem than there are who cant...

I agree 100% with shroonz and star. Cannabis is not addictive in the traditional sense of the word "addiction. There is no physical W/D Symptoms.

Back when I was a heavy user of cannabis and had to take a break/days off I experienced psychological symptoms however which have been mentioned already such as insomnia, lack of appetite, and desire to smoke pot.

These go away after a few days. I suffered from opiate addiction in the past (pods/oxy/you name it) and it is NOTHING in comparison. Weed just requires some self control and you will be fine. Remember, the person controls the use the substance, not the other way around. Stay strong %)

damn everyone is blowing that bitch up. And you mite not be able to like physically addicted to weed but some do have trouble quitting casue they like it so much. Like you can get addicted to milk. I think you guys are looking at it wrong. and we need places like this for people who do want to quit. so chill she aint trying to get us off drugs. But with me ive had to quit usually i just replace the void with something. Either alchol or cigs. Which is weird casue both are much worse for you. Also i cut down drastically for almsot a year when i got with my ex. She didnt approve of weed but i still would sneak some hits when she wasnt around and it made me sad but honestly sex with hot chicks is better than smoking a blunt wit yo homies.
 
I really don't see how cannabis could be addictive if you are responsible and don't smoke it like you would cigs, and if you don't use it to cure bordom!! There should be a sticky in CD that is like.. "Do not abuse cannabis, respect it and it will respect you!!"

About that girl who fucked for weed, it was most likely because she is a slut, and free weed is always nice. I highly doubt she did it because she REALLY NEEDED THAT GANJA!!!!1
 
lol big stroonz...well i often do go against the grain, and it is fun most of the time. sometimes you get splinters though ;)

you're right about it being shit-easy to quit. all im saying is that it is as addictive as something like tea or chocolate (i.e. a mild, herbal-type drug), but more damaging because it alters your brain a lot - like a mild shrooms or acid. it is the safest healthiest intoxicant. emphasis on toxic in intoxicant. so thats not saying a lot about it. it is a great medicine. too bad so many retards are polluting its collective consciousness with their wigger bullshit.
 
I say this with a nice attitude, people might aswell just be ranting about how anything in excess is addictive.
 
quitting weed is no problem if you just take your mind off of it.. you might have a little bit of trouble sleeping for a couple days but nothing bad at all really..

the one thing i noticed that i would consider a "withdrawal symptom" is that you have nightmares or very intense dreams for about a week or two. other than that its no problem if you're not convincing yourself its a big deal...
 
^^^and the same goes if you take barbiturates instead-if you are trying to eliminate pain, insomnia, relax your agitation and enxiety or depression. The minute you stop those also, your symptoms are back and you try to get back onto them, not because you are addicted so much per se, but because you want to eliminate your original symptoms which were there in the first place before you started on them. What is addiction can be, therefore, confusing! Cure the underlying problems and there would not be a need for anything!
Caution and balance is important with anything. Getting help for your underlying problems is something one needs to do, if whatever they
take is unmanagable.
 
Hmm. Many people make the claim that marijuana is not addictive in any way yet they provide no evidence supporting such claims. The burden of proof lay with the claimant.

I know plenty of people in NA who are struggling to stop their marijuana use. Some people evidently have issues with their marijuana use. It seems that, in my experience, self-help grounds like the NA fellowship can help people to stop smoking marijuana, at least for a time.
 
^^^Repeat, it is their underlying problems they are not addressing, below the surface which they should be looking at, first and formost! Addictive personality-has developmental issues of early childhood. Even cigarette smoking or alcohol addiction, fall under this! It is a cratch when addiction is there, for the underlying issues. Organizations that deal with addictions, deal at the same time with their underlying issues, which creates addictions. No underlying issues, no addictions! Self control is there!

I've never seen a study that proves cannabis causes cancer. There are, however, many good pieces of documentation concerning cannabis withdrawal syndrome.

Additionally, its self-reported by a large number of heavy users. Why would they falsely report symptoms such as anxiety, sleeplessness, lack of appetite, and gastrointestinal disturbances? Obviously, its not a withdrawal syndrome as severe as that caused by opiates or benzodiazepines, but it clearly does exist. Its both self-reported by addicts, and documented in the medical literature. If you wish to continue blindly refuting my statement based upon your opinion only, feel free, but I stand by my assertion that cannabis withdrawal syndrome is real and certainly does exist.
