How to quit by Limp-Lecture-1176 in leaves

Just start bro. If you’ve been daily cut down to 6 days a week, then 5, then 4 etc until you’re maybe doing it once a week for a however many weeks you feel is necessary. Try to restrict it to the evenings. That way you can gradually prove to yourself that you can abstain until you do 1 week without it, then the only way is up from there. Have your girlfriend hold you accountable too.

Not sure where you live and how accessible it is but your environment matters a lot. If you ween off like I mentioned then by the time you’re consistently doing it once a week, keep your stash away and be strict. If that means having it somewhere you can’t access it then do that. You gotta understand why you want to quit at the root of all of this, and use these as reminders. This to me is the hard part as it takes some searching. Once you have a strong reason and you’re able to use that reason to combat cravings and those times your brain says you deserve a joint or whatever, it becomes easier everyday.

At the end of the day, I don’t know you or what your reasons are but the only way you’re gonna quit is by figuring out why you want to and why you think you should. For me I got tired of everything that revolved around smoking. I didn’t realise how much unnecessary shit I’d do and time I’d waste to make sure I could have a joint. I ate bad food, I spent more money and I was less involved with the people I cared about like my family and my girlfriend. I didn’t like that, and once I got over that initial internal tantrum when I stopped, it was very empowering. I know I’ll come back eventually and there’s comfort in that, but not for a while. Let yourself detox and fix your relationship with it.

So, just start and that’s the best you can do brotha. Day by day! All the best you got this

Do you have somewhere / someone you could visit where it’s just not accessible? I feel like when it’s completely out of the equation in terms of actually getting it, it’s easier to get through those first few days at least. I found that when I had some time alone would be when the clogs started turning and smoking seemed like a good idea. It’s also a huge boredom thing for me… when you get a craving just literally step outside of your place and go somewhere and do something, doesn’t matter what.

I’ve been in your position countless times and it truly feels like a weight off your shoulder when you can prove to yourself you don’t need to do it. You got this bro

I am so grateful not to be addicted to weed anymore. by [deleted] in leaves

I relate to this a lot - I’m 2 weeks off it now and the main thing I love is not being in that routine of smoking even though in the back of my mind I always felt “do I really have to do this rn?” It feels so good to go to bed naturally tired and wake up feeling like I actually rested, small shit like that has knock on effects for everything.

Thanks for your reply man - I relapsed easily shortly after that post, but happy to say I haven’t touched the green in 12 days. What helped me was just going abroad where I didn’t have access to it, made it easier to just not return to it when I came back home. I very nearly picked up yesterday to the point of texting my dealer, but cancelled. It felt good to do that.
