Please add-in any tips you way feel helps(in any way)
Some tips: 1. Listen to you preferred music, 2. play games on the computer to take you mind off things. 3. avoid thinking,talking fantasizing about it. 4. exercise often and try yoga at least once before sleep. 5. Write down the Pro's and Cons. 6. think of all the people you've hurt and things you've did/neglected to get that sweet bowl. todays close to three months quitting this hell for me let me know your stories... I wish you all good luck quitting..... | ||

Hi ,
I'm addicted to weed , it doesn't matter if I miss a day , I still chase my addiction. I'm the Classical nurse Jackie syndrome. My family does not have a clue , I am suffering mentally with depressing because of it . I am a song writer with important people wanted to connect to me , my addiction stops me from achieving my goals. I need to make a change for the rest of my life , for me mostly . | ||

I have set a date in my mind , I'm reaching to connect to someone that can guide me , just an ear and advise. When I'm straight I need to be high , when I'm high I dream of being straight , it's a mess and I'm tired now , I have success waiting on me in the music business . The addiction keeps from my calling , I want to be free. I went straight for a while and succeeding in recording my first professional song , that I would love to share . Sunwing airlines had contacted me for the song for a vacation commercial . My addiction stops me dead in my tracks , so many friends in the movie and music business that await me , and I just put thing off , again and again because my addiction seems to be running my life, I want to take it back.
This is my first time reaching , it's killing my soul , the person I am is being held prisoner from the addiction. Robby jones | ||

I am not addicted to weed. just nicotine. a friend recently quit cigarettes. he started vaping. and enjoys it. organic flavors. can wean down on the nicotine to just vegetable oil and flavor. less harmful chemicals. It can be something to replace the habit of preparing and smoking. Is it a healthier choice?. maybe. maybe short term.

The 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous enables millions of alcoholics/addicts get and stay clean/sober "one day at a time".
As a good friend says: "Going to meetings sucks ... being a practising addict/alcoholic sucks worse !" Why not give your local NA meeting a call - It might just give you your life back as it does for millions. All the best.
