Should i stop smoking weed ? -
My boyfriend said he-s gonna dump me if i don-t stop smoking, but u was a smoker when we met 15 years ago. plus i only smoke at the weekendCaptain Sarcasm is absolutely right, this is what it does to your brain. (That goes double for you Anonymous)http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3402/3508…
I work in rehab and have seen the young lives that are ruined by it, although there is no documented evidence as some -pot heads- will surely tell you, but EVERY cocaine and heroin user I-ve met (100s of them) started off on cannabis.You don-t have to stop just because he wants you to. The only time you should stop is when you one to. By doing that the want to quit will be there and when you finally do the need to smoke weed will be gone. Weed is an amazing thing put here on earth. Some respect it when others do not. Looking at the big picture its not worst than cigarettes or alcohol. The only Reason weed isn-t legal is because the government cant tax it. Also they would never make it legal because it doesn-t bring in money. People will go to a store to buy alcohol and cigs but they will never go to a store to but weed. Since it is way easy to grow ect. Also weed should be legal though because less people die by it than booze and smokes. No ome smoking weed will go out and kill someone the most you wanna do is bake a frozen pizza. Other than that the most damage from smoking weed is to your lungs from the tobacco but at least it doesn-t have the awful chemicals in it. Your boyfriend is probably lost into all those above the influence commercials. They over exaggerate. Also you only smoke on weekends now how bad is that? If it makes him feel better only smoke one day a week. Also if you have to quit then he should have to quit a bad habit too. And if he drinks or smokes make him quit that too, its only fair.I am not going to get involved in the argument about whether weed is good for your or not....that is debatable. Its not great for the lungs, but is less harmful to the brain than alcohol....it is supposed to be helpful for people who suffer from autoimmune conditions and stomach pain...for some people its medicine, but other people use it in a bad way or too much too often....
That isnt really the issue here though. The issue here is your freedom and autonomy, and your relationship with this person you care about. Your boyfriend sounds like he is being controlling and a hypocrite, but also like he cares about you.
I personally would not surrender my autonomy or let my boyfriend boss me around, but I would talk to him about it and try to work it out. The relationship doesnt have to end. He probably doesnt really want to leave you he is just trying to look out for you in his own misguided way. Smoke if you want to smoke, but communicate your needs and feelings to your boyfriend. You can care about him without obeying his every command.-Captain Sarcasm is absolutely right, this is what it does to your brain. (That goes double for you Anonymous)

Well, apparently published research does suggest changes in neural network.
Relatively insignificant ones.
-I work in rehab and have seen the young lives that are ruined by it, although there is no documented evidence as some -pot heads- will surely tell you, but EVERY cocaine and heroin user I-ve met (100s of them) started off on cannabis.-
So? Every alcoholic started at soda pop.
This, is more of a society problem than a cannabis problem.
Don-t you think that a mindset required to take first cocaine/heroin dose will be similar to one required to smoke weed in a society there it similarlynted as something similary -evil-?

Did you not know that it-s linked with paranoid scizophrenia? I knew this young officer from Luton, did you bother to look at my link to show you what it-s obviously done to your brain?-
Hmmm?

I would say no, just keep smoking weed. Especially if you have been a smoker for 15 years. I would advise to stay away from alchohol though as it is simply poison. If it is your health he is worried about, pick up a vaporizor as it will cut down your risks of lung damage. What would give him the right to try to control you like that anyhow? Is he that much better than you? My advise is to find something he really likes and tell him you will make a deal, he quits that and you-ll quit weed.
This will be a bluff of coarse, just make sure it is one he cannot call. This will shut him up. If he still leaves you, gimme a call !!
J/KWell it is illegal. It is bad for your lungs (lung cancer, emphysema, etc. just like like cigarettes).
I-d just talk to him about it. Ask him why he wants you to quit. Is it the legality? Maybe he doesn-t like you when you-re high. People act differently when high. He might find you insufferable to be around while you-re stoned. He may just like you better sober is all. I-m just speculating, though. You-d just have to ask him and base your decision on that.screw him if hes gonna dump u over weed, if he really cared about u it wouldnt matter if u smoked weed, if he met u when u were smoking weed whats the difference? he should have the same feelings for u if u smoked or didnt smoke, dump him b4 he dumps u and get a bf that loves u for who u areYou will feel so much better after you haven-t smoked for a few weeks. It is probably going to be hard but you can do it! Trust me -- the results are way worth it.
You will feel more like yourself and your brain will be less foggy. I know that might seem like it-s a load of crap, but try giving it up for a few weeks and see if you notice the difference.He says that because he cares about you. Weed can destroy your life. It starts with -I-m just smoke on the weekend- and then it ends up destroying your life. Stop smoking weed now or it-ll be harder to turn back later. And anyway, it-s not cool.try this out. quit weed and start drinking heavily in no time he will prolly be begging you to start smoking again. esp. if your like me a very happy high person vs. a very dumb mad drunk. thats why i stick to pot.Is your boyfriend or weed more important you decide, but if my girlfriend ever ask me to stop i wouldn-t cause smokin trees its like a habit to me.yes of course you should stop, but i guess ur ur own person and can make decisions for urself. well hopefully u can make a good choice and kno the consequencesno
he should let you make your own choices, nobody likes an overly conrtolling bf or gfCannabis damages the synapses in the brain. You decide!keep up the smokingIf hes gonna dump you over weed hes an idiot.Just talk to your BF and ask him why it bothers him so much now if he use to smoke!You have a tough decision to make. Good luck with that.What kind of boyfriend is that!?It would probably be the best thing that you will ever do in your life!No. Unless you want to.go 3 or 4 months without smoking weed, trust me it-s so worth it
