I'm not sure if you're still on this site checking it...but I have an addiction to weed that I have recently quit. I am 8 months pregnant and I was a big pothead before I got pregnant. I could smoke two to three blunts with a few bowls in one day and I loved it. But I wasn't making anyone close to me happy...aside from my two best friends(one was my pot dealer) who smoked with me. But I've spent sooo much money on pot and it's ridiculous. I could spend $200 on weed and go through it within over a week IF I smoked by myself. But I loved having blunts to smoke with friends. I'm a giving person in general so it was all I had to give at that point and my pothead friends loved me for being so giving. But eventually it just became too much of a problem for me and I was dealing with an abusive boyfriend. So after I found out I was pregnant, I broke up with my boyfriend because he was so mentally and emotionally abusive. I didn't want the stress of him to kill my unborn baby. I had quit for the first two months of my pregnancy while I went to live with my grandma for a month of it to try and get better. I decided to come back home to my mom's and I quickly went back to smoking due to my terrible morning sickness. I finally got the strength to quit probably about 4 weeks ago..maybe less. I lost count after I forgot to keep counting so now I don't care if I don't know how many days its been. As long as I stay sober for my child and I. I also don't want weed to be in my system when I give birth...I'm pretty sure its mandatory here in MN and I don't know how big of deal they make about that kind of stuff. I hope I've stopped soon enough. I had such a hard time quitting. I had trouble sleeping, I was nauseas, irritated/agitated, I got very restless, I zones out a lot, and I was extremely depressed/anxious. Now I feel better than ever (: and I am glad I quit. I have my bad days and cry when all I want to do is smoke a smoke/bong/blunt. But I just keep strong and realize I don't have the money for it and it doesn't make my life any easier. Plus, how can you be a mature responsible mom if all you're doing is smoking pot? It's just not good for a child to be in that type of environment even though I was okay with thinking it was all alright some months ago. Reading your posts have helped me gain even more strength and courage. Thank you :). Hello!

He has an incredbily bad cough and scarring on the lungs. He has seen a specialist but of course, his mother and family only believe this is due to cigarette smoking. They also believe he has given up smoking. He lies to his family about that to protect his mothers feelings as she had a younger brother that died of lung problems several years ago. His mother has smelt smoke on him recently and begged me to call her if he is smoking.. I want to tell her all as he is very close to her and I think that maybe by her knowing all, it may be more motivation for him to quite before it is too late. I am concerned that his cough is getting worse and the specialist told him to give up smoking..yet alone dope smoking which they do not even know about.. I know he is going to resent me for letting his mother know but I am starting to think that witholding it is not wise either. What should I do ?? Hi,

I just hit day 14 and I feel like I've beaten this. I was a daily smoker for about 15 yrs. The first few days are the hardest, believe me it gets easier. knowing that you're not going to smoke tonight or tomorrow etc, is rough. It was like there was nothing to look forward to. It does eventually pass. You will begin to wonder how you could continually fill your body with toxic smoke on purpose. Don't get me wrong, I still miss the feeling. Weed used to control my life now I am back in control. Good luck to you all and you CAN do it!!! Hello all. I just hit day 14 and I feel like I’ve beaten this. I was a daily smoker for about 15 yrs.

People can change, but, and I am no phsycologist (not even sure i can spell it ! lol) your friend needs to be the one who wants to give up. I stopped smoking ciggies a few years ago, and I only achieved that when i really wanted to stop myself. Just giving it a go doesnt normally work. He needs to stop for himself first. how you get him into that frame of mind, I am not sure. In australia there is a place called the Cannabis Clinic, maybe there are drug dicsussuin groups in N. Ireland. If he meets some people that have been able to give up, heres what they have to say, that might motivate him. I am at 5 weeks now and I tried many times to stop, never thought i could. But here I am ! Good luck, take care. Trevor Lisa,

Im not a dope smoker but someone very close to me is and we have fallen out over it and how much his attitude has changed due to the amount he smokes. I need advice on what to do because I want to help him, i cant cope with the violence, shouting,anger, being paranoid beyond anything you can imagine and the lack of not wanting to do things...he just wants to sit at home and smoke. Its heartbreaking. At the start of our relationship he was loving, caring and full of life, taking me for dinner, clubbing, really anywhere i wanted to go. I gave him chance after chance to come off it and get "us" back again but everytime he only lasted a day or two. I maybe shouldnt be on this site but i need advice on how i should help him...what would you guys expect from the people you love?? Can people really change back to who they were before they starting smoking heavy?? I want to say a HUGE well done to all of you... you are all doing really well and you all should be proud of yourselves. Take care Hi my name is Lisa im from N. Ireland.
