It's not a waste of money; it's fun and relaxes you.

KingJD31 · 07-23-12, 09:00 PM

money shouldn't be the issue being weed is cheap but for me atleast I would always get in a daze where I literally couldnt get my eyes off t.v no motivation nothing, good move

I quit years ago because I knew without a doubt that years of use (and probably abuse) was affecting my health. That's a pretty good reason to stop.

withdrawals suck cauk... but I think I need to stop too...

I used to smoke alot of weed, for years in fact. The drug testing for the workplace put an end to it years ago though. Every once in a while I'll fire one up with an old freind and get really comfortable, but it's not how I'd choose to live my life any more. I'd have never accomplished half of what I have if I'd been smoking an ounce of weed a week. that shit steals your time and motivation. your better off without it. If you are a heavy smoker it probably means your an addictive personality since weeds not addictive, be careful of what you pick up next. Alchohol is some truly wicked shit man physically addictive and you could kill someone while your on it.

9 years? you could TAR 3000 square feet of driveway with your lungs alone..................

quitting weed is easier than quitting cigs. just be strong for 2 to 3 weeks, you'll be fine. also, if you hangout with bunch of stoners, you might need to start hanging out with people that don't smoke.

Nicotine is the reason for this,most addictive substance known to man................

nicotine itself isn't bad for you, it's the tar that ***** up your body.

No but it is the glue that keeps your craving ongoing..........

I disagree with this. When I used to smoke cigarettes, I can remember times when I'd be smoking a cigar with friends, and still craving a cigarette. There's something else in the cigarettes that make them incredibly addictive. You can chew nicotine gum, wear the patch, smoke e-cigs, etc., but you'll still crave the cigarette. Why would you still have a nicotine craving, if you were getting nicotine?

I've had many friends get hooked on weed and overdose on it. Glad you're stepping away before it kills you.

Good luck, guy.

I was a heavy smoker for a lot of years. Quitting was tough, but you do save a lot of money. Try putting some of the money you would have used on weed (a little at a time) and take a trip with it; that way you'll see the value (other than health) of quitting smoking.

Marv001 · 07-26-12, 07:43 PM

Good luck man. You can do it. You will save a ton of money and have time and motivation to get a lot accomplished in your life.

I spent years being a 24/7 smoker, switched over to just smoking late at night, I like it much better that way.

Pay me back and maybe there will be good karma.

Cheme82 · 07-26-12, 09:31 PM

I've never liked week, tried it a few times and never liked the way it makes me feel. The only time I liked the effect is about 6 years ago when I puffed on a joint twice because my left knee had been killing me for about a week. That shit was like a miracle. In minutes I was jumping up and down and doing squats and shit. It was really funny. At that moment I told myself that unless they have some good pain meds for when I'm old and hurting everywhere, I would smoke weed then. But by that time I have nothing to worry about, whatever I'll achieve will be done by then.

SteelRain · 07-26-12, 09:36 PM

good luck

Tell me about it bro. I'm in Texas so if caught they probably would have chopped my leg off and thrown me in the hole for a year.

easyliving · 07-26-12, 09:53 PM

as another poster said money shouldn't be an issue weed is very cheap. as far as smoking quitting is the right decision I smoked in college from time to time but haven't smoked since I graduated gotta move on with life and take responsibility. Now I can't .even stand the smell of it

pattymayo · 07-26-12, 09:55 PM

Weed is cool in high school before you've done any real drugs. I think once you turn 21 (at the oldest) you shouldn't smoke weed anymore. Its a drug for fukkin teenage losers who have no responsibilities and who nobody expects shit out of. Much better drugs out there if you want to use drugs, and that don't involve inhaling smoke which cannot be good for you.

Plus, are there even any additives in weed like nicotine in cigs? I smoked weed a lot when I was young but never got any physical withdrawal symptoms when I quit, its all mental.

it's actually the other way around

weed very damaging to the developing brain

parents should do everything they can to keep drugs away from teens imo

i'm not against drugs or alcohol just think think it should be strictly for adults

Depends on the person I guess. I kinda look at alcohol the same way, it's for fukking loser college kids who have no responsibilities.

Weed otoh, I see nothing wrong with sitting on the couch at night and smoking a doobie while watching a movie or surfing the web.

great decision,
the benefits are endless

EasyHustlin · 07-27-12, 01:51 AM

Weed gives you the best nights sleep

TheMetsSuck · 07-27-12, 05:23 AM

weed is nothing. i've quit weed and dipping habits and it wasn't too hard. trying to get off the xanax is a different story. I was doing ok and holding out until i read online going cold turkey can kill you and seizures are likely. **** that....guess ill puss out and go with the tapering down method. lame

wait what? weed actually has therapeutic effects on people that have cancer and other illnesses. can you say the same about other drugs you are thinking of?
