Quitting smoking weed
 

Anyone else done this? I've been smoking pretty much every day for the past 2 years and at least once a week for a long time before that.
Because of the career I'm getting into doing drug testing I have not smoked for the past week. The first couple days were fine but now the past 3 days I havent slept for more then an hour at a time and maybe a total of 3 hours a night.
I'm not sure if its me not blazing that is causing this or not. I do get insomnia from time to time when I'm really stressed out. Obviously I have a huge change coming up so I'm stressed too.

So the question for the ppl that have quit. Did anything out of the ordinary happen?

i know a few people who smoke strictly for falling asleep

for me if i smoke i cant fall asleep for like 2 hours lol

i'm a fairly regular smoker who's taken 1-3 month breaks from time to time, never really had any effects

You live in Surrey right? wanna get high? I have some real good Kush right now :D





All joking aside ya it happened to my buddy as well, you just have to stop worry and thinking about it your probably doing that while trying to sleep so its hard to fall a sleep and why you could be waking up.

try the indica

im on like day 3 lol

gonna try and quit till i do that RS contest for my 420th fail, then its no more smoking... except for april 20th


first month i would say would be the hardest.. you get the withdrawls and realize insomnias a bitch.

reminds me when i was sober for 2 months straight in vietnam.. could barely sleep for shit

ur best bet is to try some sleeping pills or soldier it for another few weeks for ur body to accept the changes

Just the hump, gotta make it over that. I definitely wasn't a regular and probably once a week or so for a solid few years. I just stopped, it felt better for me? :e-shrug:

I've been debating whether or not to pick up cigs just to see if I have the willpower to quit haha

^ i walked by the gas station earlier and had such a urge to pick up a pack of belmonts.

and i dont even smoke cigarettes :lol anymore..


i use to be a real big smoker in high school but i think i had the willpower to quit smoking so easily cause i was more addicted to the green. :cry:


also the not being able to sleep could also be caused by your stress like you said... mixed with the weed withdrawls.... cuz i know its a bitch to fall asleep right away when you got to much things on your mind.. maybe you should try to bust a nut before you sleep? i hear thats almost the same as burning out :lol


hope your quitting goes well penner!

Anyone wanna buy a vaporizer?
I'll throw in a free pipe..

edit:
I guess I can throw in an electric coffee grinder too... I dont drink coffee..

This is the perfect starter package for someone just starting..

what kinda vape you got bud i have some buddies that might be interested PM ME all info

FS thead for vapo yet?

take NON-ADDICTIVE sleeping pills...but then u need to get off those...maybe some crack or something?

i was thinking about selling my volcano as well... but then it has too much sedimental value to me lol

Rubbing one out before bed is a good time.

Way too much sentimental value. Everytime you've vaporized with your buddies, you did it with the volcano too :lol

Everytime I blaze, I get super tired and sleepy. But man, it feels good for that while..

If I dont get laid I do that pretty much every night.
Sometimes it actually wakes me up more. lol

you should post the pic of the bag lol its shrunk a bit since you last used it

try taking some melatonin... you can get it at your local drug store
works wonders if you have insomnia

Melatonin doesnt really work for me.
I popped 20 mg of it and I still couldnt fall asleep

melatonin ftw

This awesome bag? :thumbsup:

i smoked pot pretty heavily for about 3-4 years thru the end of highschool and a few years after. started tapering off for about a year, and then quit outright about 5 years ago.

easiest way to quit is to just remove yourself from the lifestyle. my pot lifestyle was hanging out and smoking weed with my friends every day. to quit, i had to make new friends and do different things.




ps: i love how open and liberal people are talking about an illigal activity online.

Fuk I really need to quit smoking weed, I said on jan 1st I wud quit for a month straight, but I was too hung over from nye and the only way to cure that was by blazing lol .. Fail! Been goin strong for the last 6 years and I'm only 20 yrs old lol can't be goood

Longest I quit was 3 months but it was voluntarily. After first few days it becomes easier, and make it like a challange to go day by day.

Oh, also what I found really helps is to keep a bit of weed tucked away somewhere. I notice that when it's at easy reach it acts like a safety net and I can hold out longer lol.

does anyone get emo when they blaze?

recently - past month or two ive found that during my comedowns i get really emo

like i blaze with my buddies and its all good, but then when i get home and head to bed, ill just think of really negative downer thoughts that get me depressed and make me feel insecure... is that weird? i talked to a buddy of mine he said it kinda happens to him too but not as intense

my mood = the opposite of when i drink. ie when i drink all my insecurities momentarily go away and i feel like king shit

but when i blaze i feel unreasonably insecure about my life and become emo

for that reason alone ive been trying to take a break and smoke less
