Hey Veeky Forums. im a neet addicted to weed (who lifts). how do i quit? posting here because related to health

I did it with a guide. Everyday you are reminded that withdrawl symptons will pass and some encouraging words.
Too bad that controlled smoking doesn't work for me as I fall back into bad habits.

Why should one quit if you can vape it like the gods want you to?

Cannabis lowers your testosterone by inhibiting GnRH release in the hypothalamus. Only a short term effect but if you smoke everyday it is also lowered everyday.

fucken this.
i dont know how my stoner mates dont get the fear and the dread bit. i suppose its all relative to ones inner core beliefs

Chemical addiction is not real. Addiction science is pseudoscience. It is a habit, and you must kick it unless you wish to develop psychosis, or a multitude of other mental issues that can occur as a result of consistent usage.
Also all stoners are really fucking annoying.

waow thats a really strong existenial crisis you haven't sorted for yourself yet, im for sure not ever gonna be able to smoke now xD

you stop buying it and stop using it. don't overthink this shit

Telling an addict "just stop" is like telling an incel "just pee yourself"

>just pee yourself

O-okay..my pants are soaked, what now

I just read a big article in Men's Health that was all about the possible benefits of weed to overall fitness. Apparently a pretty good amount of athletes like to smoke a bowl post-workout to help them relax and recover.

Could just be bullshit but I've smoked after a workout and have noticed some benefits.

Inform your mother, she'll know what to do.

You ever suck dick for weed?!

The first two weeks are the hardest. Personally I think it helps to have one last hurrah before you quit cold turkey. Smoke up what you have left and as you smoke the last of it, just tell yourself this is the last time you're smoking and enjoy it while you can.

Then just don't buy more. You'll be bored and maybe depressed for those first few weeks but after that it's easy.

That's one nice piece of propaganda you've got there, user. Mind if I save this?

find a very good reason to quit. A reason that makes relapsing not worth it mentally. Also try not to stay up late. keep exercising and find a hobby to replace your smoking

I quit porn. my reason was to prove that I could do it. made it so much more gratifying when I could resist the urges.

Just stop? Weed does not cause physical addiction. I smoked for years and then just decided to stop and that was it, never felt like doing it again. Any addiction to it is all a mirage imagined by you.

Let yourself run out, then don't buy anymore. First couple days you will really want a puff, but feel more awake. Then you start getting odd anxieties, appetite and sleep disturbance, other minor BS. Withdrawal (inb4 not addictive yes kids, cannabis withdrawal is mild but real for the habitual smoker) kind of peaks after a week and then you gradually start feeling better and better.
Brain and body normalizes with logarithmically diminishing returns during 3-6 weeks. If you can keep it to a one day per week thing after a good break you get the max benefits with no BS. Habitual smoking is only good for killing time chilling, obliterates your stash, cash and comes with negs upon cessation.

t. guy who's on a much needed tolerance break.

Thank you for posting that link.

At one point in my life I was burning through quarters of good ass weed every couple days, smoking from morning to night for DAYS on end, only leaving my room to go to the bathroom and eat food. I smoked a whole blunt of some dank ass purp and it got me half-high for about 30 minutes. I just kinda burned myself out on the shit and just lost that craving for it completely. Running is my high now.

You haven't smoked enought, or you haven't tried to quit.

Hardest time when you're quitting is at night. I always smoke before bed and when I quit for a week last month I couldn't sleep for shit and had cold sweats. My sweat literally stunk of weed. It increased my appetite though which was good 4 gainz

Drop acid and day after smoke weed

can confirm, highly effective

You're an absolute moron. Ethanol addiction can be so severe that cold turkey quitting can kill you from withdrawal.

This guy has the best opinion in the thread.

this is a lie you get withdrawal symptoms and nightmares from quitting if you smoke strong every day for years
fucking faggot
that doesn’t mean its real

Well, I used to be a fat virgin neet who also happend to be a weed addict(it was not habit it was addiction cuz i could not quit that easy). I did like three tabs of acid once and I helped me realise that weed was just garbage(for me at least), It just made slugish, hungry and anti social.

What the fuck do you mean "it's not real"?
Are you saying that people who died from ethanol withdrawal were killed by their imaginations?
You're a fucktard back peddling from your fucktard statement.

>easy. stop buying it
this
i could easily smoke an O a week, i just could not afford it anymore, so i stopped buying it, not a single withdrawal symptoms, maybe a little irritable for the first few days but that's about i

>smoking an ounce a week
I will never, ever understand how people can do this. I'm smoking brick weed that's 3 years old and ounce a week even of this shit would keep me on Pluto 24/7

Lol if you dont understand that sober, you are a fucking moron. Everything will fade, and the only thing that truly exists is this moment. So make sure you are enjoying it, it is the only thing that is real and permanent. If you enjoy smoking weed, just smoke it, who gives a fuck. If you enjoy playing basketball, play it, we are all going to die and the sun is going to explode who gives a shit what you do with your life.
My point is, the meaning of life is to enjoy the moment and reproduce, so we can continue this great thing called evolution.

>who gives a shit what you do with your life
this
>the meaning of life is to reproduce
fucking dropped

Make green dragon. It makes your weed last longer, easier to control the dosage.i feel it has smoother highs and I don’t get munchies on it

I want to do this. What recipe did you use, alcohol or vg? How many drops do you usually need?

Fuckin my favorite thing to do
>long day at work
>bust ass at gym
>smoke a fat bowl & take a hot shower
>melt on sofa for an hour
Helps me get out of work mode and ease into the evening

>if you smoke heavy everyday for years
well yeah if frank 6 cups of coffee everyday for years i probably wouldn't be able to leave my house without it, doesn't mean it's addictive(like coffee lol) and it doesn't mean it should be illegal.

>le epic bong rip
Stoner pussy is beat.

This is how I do it

>decarb your weed
>set up a double boil I just place my jar I store it in in a pot with water
>add the weed and the highest proof drinking alcohol you can get
>simmer it in the alcohol for a while, don’t let it boil too much (you’ll just cook off the booze and waste it)
>strain out the leaves and put into dropper bottle

As for the dosing each time it’s a little difference I start with a full dropper and go from there. It takes about an hour to really kick in, I feel like the high is way cleaner like I don’t get munchies, you don’t get that feeling when the high rolls in on (say you smoke a little too much) it’s almost unnoticeable, until you try and do something and realize how high you are

I also save the leaves from the first round and leave it to soak with alcohol until I make some more, I use this second round in foods in particular or use it topically, I once dumped a bunch of the second runs in a bath and I felt like I got pretty high

stop rolling them and see how far you get holding the weed trying to suck the smoke in while your hand is burning.

...

You just need to stop for long enough to see the benefits of not smoking. Benefits include: none or lessened paranoia, better memory, higher iq/mental clarity, probably better mood, but at least more regular mood, more money from not buying weed. Pretty significant benefits. You'll probably see most of those within two weeks of not smoking anymore. From there, feeling those benefits will motivate you enough to not smoke anymore. That's what happened to me. The upsides of not smoking heavily outweighed the upsides of smoking, and now I don't even think of going back.

FUCK QUITTING WEED I SMOKE on the DAILY

So OP shouldn't want to improve himself, or conceptualize his future self and aim towards a goal by sacrificing immediate pleasures? What a stupid statement.

lol I regularly get high in a cemetery to contemplate the impermanence of life

faggots ITT saying its hard to quit weed are just that. mentally weak, faggots.

Weed messes with your hormones and esp for guys who lift and eat a lot. It’s gonna be harder to shed fat when you smoke pot.

over half a decade of smoking and smoking every day for the last 3 years, only having a break during work hours.
after quitting where i work seemed different because i had never been there sober

This. There are buddhist monks who sit and watch human corpses decompose for days as a form of meditation. Some Hindu gurus even coat themselves in the ash of burned human remains that they cannibalized earlier. Being scared of death is futile for obvious reasons.

>addicted to weed
Weed is not addictive unless you are mentally ill with no self control who is addicted to what you think is self-destructive behavior. Even then, its just a bad habit; physically harmless with no addictive qualities.

My withdrawals last for one to two weeks. During that time I have greater anxiety, an increased chance of having a panic attack, and can hardly - if at all - eat or sleep. According to two different psychologists I have therapy with I have something called cannabis use disorder.

Not eveyone is the fucking same.

>being scared of death is futile
no, thats not true. fear of death is absolutely necessary for life on earth. at least a healthy fear until you can make progeny

>an increased chance of having a panic attack
>an increased chance
If you are having panic attacks at all then you are already mentally ill. weed won't change much.

>natalists in 2018

>>addicted to weed
>to what you think is self-destructive behavior.

Can you elaborate? I don't understand at all what you're trying to say here.

Can

You see weed as a negative thing so you torture yourself with it because you are mentally ill

Yeah I know, I try to stay off for as long as I can. Just don't want anyone thinking it's not something you can't become dependant, or that it can't be difficult to quit. People with conditions arent weak. No one chooses to have these problems or to have been conditioned to behave in such a manner. Every day is a battle to remind yourself you don't have to be the person those around you programmed you to be from birth.

Oh, I'm not certain that applies to me exactly. I'll think about it though, thanks for the perspective.

All I did was pretend I was joining military. Try a placebo

Can you explain your perspective further? What does reality look like to you? Understanding your world in a coherent way is a good first step towards a healthy mind.
>No one chooses to have these problems or to have been conditioned to behave in such a manner
Everything you have ever perceived has been perceived because you choose to experience it, whether consciously or unconsciously. It's true that you have been conditioned to behave a certain way, but the responsibility of that conditioning is wholly on your shoulders. Don't blame the mechanism for acting as a mechanism.

>baby's first existential crisis
What does this have to do with weed?

M8, are you right leaning politically? Cause thats exactly the mindset that all righties have when they talk about nignogs being subhumans that have higher inclination towards crime and what not and that all their problems are their own fault.

You miss the possibility that if you could recreate 2 worlds perfectly and plant 2 exact clones (healthy and visually) you will have both of those clones and up with perfectly identical lives if you compare them. Since crime is usually a resultant of poor early life, instead of calling people out for their life choices we should help as much of them economically. Pls tell me if im wrong.

> cycling gives you large hips

wtf

No it doesnt, pes

I get high about once every two weeks on average. I have a very nice bong that filters the smoke out a lot and use ice to get really smooth hits with no coughing. It's quite nice to do the odd time and it's legal where I live. Must suck balls being a weakling with no self control that becomes dependent on a fucking plant.
