Hope tht helped!Well most people are addicted to something whether it be alcohol or food or drugs in one way or another. Your choice, and it is a choice, is probably not the worst but it is also not the best. It will require real will power to stop. You have to want to stop. Consider the money you will save and put it toward something else instead that you really want, Consider the health implications (lung cancer?) or if need be replace one addiction with another healthier one. Good luckI know what you mean. Many people say its not addicting but I definatley think its mentally addicting to say the least. The best thing to do would be to go to rehab or go to the doctor and talk to them about it. They are not going to call the police on you or anything especially when you are trying to quite.Go To Rehab.Ive been an avid pot smoker too :) the only thing that has given me the -will- to quit was my pregnancies, and honestly i didnt even quit till i had too (mandatory drug-testing on newborns, ill lose my kids if one is born w/ it in their system). Is there a specific reason u need to quit? The motivation of jail, a job or losing something over it might be the only thing to -make- u quit. Personally, i dont think pot is addictive, its in the mind...its not like drinking, or doin another kind of -harder drug-, even smoking cigarettes is way harder to stop and we all kno it kills us :) I cant really give u a suggestion on how to quit, but being around ppl who smoke wont help...so the first step would be getting rid of ur friends and contacts...but it doesnt sound like u have a -problem-. Thats just my personal opinion! :)
