How can i help my cousin stop Smoking weed/pot? -
ok he like smokes because he thinks it makes him feel betterhe has been cought once in school and now the cops found him buying it
he smokes reguraly
i just scared that he can be high and die from car crash because he drives high
or when he buys the weed someone pulls out a gun and shoots him
im just scared for his well beingSmoking weed/pot is possible the -healthiest- way to artificially raise your generally mental well being. Marijuana is much healthier than alcohol and other -street- drugs. It has absolutely no permanent damage to the body. Studies have found that marijuana actually boost the amount of dopamine in the -happy- pathway during use and in-between use. Don-t worry about someone pulling a gun, its marijuana not cocaine, the money is not worth the trouble to a dealer. As for getting caught, tell him to stop being such an idiot.You do know that weed is not that big a deal and he is defienatly not going to get shot over it. Your cousin is fine he is just trying to live life to the fullest while he can. If you serouisly think he has a big problem which smoking -regularly- is not a problem at all. You should just talk to him about addiction and all you can do is inform him on mental addiction b/c you cant get phsyically addicted to weed and its up to him what he does with it. Just leave your cousin alone and how are you going to critize something you-ve never tried.I can understand your position, you are concerned for the well fare of someone close to you. The media and the US government has done a horrible job in how they have portrayed marijuana. It is a great way to relax and escape after a hard day of work. Explain to your cousin that as long as it does not get in the way of his obligations and that it stays recreational, it isn-t a problem. Also advise him to get a regular dealer, who isn-t shady and knows your cousin well. Tell him that when he smokes weed, he should do it in the house, and not go out while high. This way he won-t be a danger to himself or others. I hope this helps, I smoke weed myself, and I-m a straight A college student at UC San Diego, so understand that weed doesn-t mess up everyone-s life.First, it-s important to understand that one person cannot make another person do or stop doing something. You should continue to show how much you care. I have many family and friends with similar habits (myself not included) and I find that when they are involved with people who are not into -that- and/or activities that are not revolved around -that-, it forces them to follow the majority. So if you care bunches and have the time create a pot free group revolved around pot free activities.
Good Luck!
PS @Erik: but many ppl have died from the recklessness of those with impaired judgement, including innocent children. Don-t be completely ignorant hun.K people don-t really fckin shoot you, or even rob you when you-re buyin pot unless you-re pickin up by the pound then there may be a risk you-ll get jumped at the very worst, I dunno what kinda neighborhood you live in or anything but damn...
It-s not even as impairing as people make it out to be.
Sht man I don-t even consider pot a real -drug- compared to some real heavy stuff, there-s a lot worse things he could be using.
Worry about him when he starts snortin fckin heroin that is a drug that I promise will learn him what trouble really is.Calm down, it-s ok.
Driving while high isn-t as good as driving sober, but it-s not as bad as driving while texting, driving while talking on the phone, driving while doing your makeup, or driving with distractions like kids in the back seat. So don-t worry about that, chances of him getting in an accident are pretty low.
As far as getting shot, lol, don-t worry about that. Guys who sell weed aren-t going to shoot their customers. If they did that, they wouldn-t have anyone to buy their stuff anymore.
You shouldn-t worry about him. Weed is not as dangerous as adults try to make you believe.

So, try to legalize it. When drugs are legalized they are safer to purchase, regulated and studies have shown that wherever drugs are decriminalized or legalized, drug use decreases and drug rehabilitation treatment programs are more effective. He obviously has a minor problem with marijuana but i wouldn-t be too concerned. Some people don-t care if they hurt others because they are addicted to a drug. Marijuana is not that addictive. He might just not care.listen. Its his choice. I smoke but not regularly.(PLEASE DO NOT RAG ON ME I AMA AWARE OF THE RISKS!) If he is aware of the risks let him do it. Dont be a nag. If he isn-t aware of the risks (addiction car crashes negative affects on brain development)well just bring him facts about how its bad for you but alot of people use it to cope with society cause they fell like there unpopular and have family and other issues it makes you just not care about any of that stuff wen your high.well it-s his choice. If he says he wants to quit he can go to a recovery center if he dosn-t want to then it-s his choice..you can-t force him.
Hope this helped,
