You need to cut the ties with those that enable you to it, whether they are friends or what have you. It is going to be difficult, but if you hang out with people that buy and/or use, then you are placing yourself in a position that is going to disrupt your progress as you quit.

It is wonderful that you have come to this conclusion on your own. I wish I was as wise as you when I was your age. Rememberpoe has some great suggestions for you to follow. Just think of all the doors that will open for you that have been shut for you until now. I’ll be back with a post we read earlier that would interest you. YOU can do this!!!

unfortunately, marajuna addiction is a tricky one to get over. This is mostly because there is no physical withdrawl symptoms; it is a compleately (well, mostly) psychological addiction. The fact that you are willing to quit means you are already one step there, but you can’t do it on your own. The hard fact is: you need your parents help. If you are serious about quitting, they probably won’t be mad at you. They maybe unhappy and upset, but they will get you the help you need. Ultimately, if you turn to someone, any trusted adult(School Counselor, Aunt, Grandma, etc), you will likely be able to overcome your addiction and find the help you need. Otherwise, you probably won’t get the assistance you need. It’s a hard truth to accept, but it’s much more plausible to get help. Did I mention get help?

The best way to try and quit is actually simple. Most people think that they should quit cold turkey and done. This is simply untrue. For me atleast after trying to quit multiple times, i finally realized that I had to do it a little at a time. I break it down like this. If you smoke all the time then try and cut it in half. After you have sucesfully cut the habbit in half, and are comfortable with that, then you cut it in half again. Once you get to once a week take it to the next level and make it every two weeks. After you have done this succesfully it will then be time for once a month if this is even nessasary. Now this is if you have to take it all the steps which some do and some do not. Keep track of your smoking habbits with a calander to look and see the last time that you smoked. The calander will give you a sense of accomplishment. people can only quit if they truely want to. Many people say they want to quit, but do not truely want to. If you want to quit believe me my way is the way to go.

Did you tell your friends that you are quitting? If they are good friends they will support you. If they’re not good friends then get rid of them.

i think its good that you want to quit smoking. so do i. it has cost me my boyfriend whom i love very much. it’s time to stop but im scared that i won’t be happy without it. i know that sounds stupid, but it’s true. i’m wondering if you have any advice for me. everyone around me smokes too so it’s not that easy to just give it up.

I agree with what the person said about the calendar, it gives you a sense of accomplishment to see the days you have not used. I believe anyone including me can give up this habbit but truly need to be committed to change. Its easy to get stuck in old patterns
