Trying to Quit Marijuana After Long Term Steady Use?

Question by AK4ALL2DAY0: Trying to quit Marijuana after long term steady use?
Iv tried quiting over the past few months.. Its just so difficult after all I’v been doing is smoking the herb plant. My passed summer was a blunt infused daze (Smoking an 8th a day does that. Mind you I worked 5 days a week this summer, pulling in 300-500 every two weeks, 100% of that money was spent on WEED, food, & gas), my fall & winter sorta became one. Now its January & not sure where my life’s going. I’m currently trying to finish all my hs credits to graduate on time..but its so difficult to sit down & do hw when all I want to do is smoke… Now I know plenty of people that smoke as much as me & can handle their sober days fine. But with me it’s an entirely different ball game. If I’m not high I’m angry, sad, depressed, or just spacing out not knowing what to do with my self. I’m involved in a team sport, but I become less excited about it has the days go on.. I’m finding myself not being self motivated for anything. Earlier this December I had a 5 day break (first time in several months) & that may not seem like much to you, but believe me. By day 3 of that break I couldn’t even motivate myself to go outside, or hang out with any of my friends. Hell my mind was half gone & what part was left was moving so fast & all over the place that I couldn’t even get myself to sit down to watch Netflix or play Skyrim.

This is plea, all I’m asking is for a plan. I need help being able to redirect my thoughts, my actions & impulses.

I’ll probably never be able to quite weed for good.. But I would at least like to go 30, 60, 90, or at least 360 days before burning my next blunt.

Oh, & please don’t tell me to use any prescription drugs, my mothers life was ruined from prescription abuse (watch Requiem for a Dream if you wanna know what I’m talking about, My mom was saved in time & shes not like the lady in the movie (yet) but still long term affects will always be there).

Back in the day a lot of people always said pot was not addictive. I know I was addicted for many years but still functional at least. It can be a psyhcological addiction but who care it still has the same effect on your lifestyle.
It took me about 4 times over a period of a couple of years to actualy stop smoking pot. I still like the smell of it but I just don’t smoke it. At parties I will just pass it to the next person & I am still asked to roll joints for some friends who can’t acquire that knack.
I don’t miss it & I didn’t miss it even after I stopped the last time in 1986.
You are very much addicted & I think you need to seek professional help not just here on Yahoo Questions.
