unfortunatly after many attempts at trying to stop smoking dope...i have failed. I stopped smoking the very few cigerettes that i did, yet i love my weed too much. ok, not as much as the person that i said i would stop for, yet it's so difficult because my friends all smoke, as do most of the other people around me.
what can i do to get around this one?

You really need to re evaluate the reasons you want to take it and feel you can't stop.
I always hated those "hash cookies" that tourists eat in Amsterdam, butI used to cook fish with weed (not skunk) and it was really nice, and I don't mind hash fudge.
Although it's not the same high as you get when smoking.... it's the pleasure of smoking a joint or whatever that is truly hard to break.
In all honesty, if you are enjoying smoking weed, and you smoke with your friends, you are not going to stop...
Tell him to stop drinking alcohol, and you'll stop smoking weed :yes: .
Sounds fair.
If you enjoy smoking, I don't see much of a problem to be honest...
Weed sort of self-regulates its use anyway...if you smoke too much for too long and your life veers off track, the paranoia and anxiety of that realisation will start fucking up the cannabis trips...so you've got no option but to quit and get yourself sorted out.
yea i agree with this, it's the reason why i cut down alot but still haven't stopped, i'm not sure if you have a problem as such luby, unless you're smoking the guts of a half o a day or something, i think you'll be alright.
I don't want to stop really, but being a singer i know that smoking isn't going to be a good idea. he doesn't mind me eating it, it's jsut the smoking part he doesn't like.
there's nothing wrong with that tbh, 3 joints a week is nothing compared to what some smoke, if you like the buzz and you can handle the buzz well then there should be no reason to stop imo.
I agree weed can do this. Schizophrenia is not only having an alter ego where you suddenly become Mr. Hyde after a few spliffs. It may take the form of sudden, extreem mood swings and depression.
Ive been through a period of smoking about £10 of north london skunk a night. After a while the paranoia started; hearing friends talking about me when they were actully talking about another friend, thinking my weed was laced with crack to make me smoke more and more of it, thinking my parents had sent me to university and payed for friends to look after and help me (yes at one point I had become so detached from reality that I actully believed this). Then the major mood swings started and I started huge arguments with friends over tiny, non-important things.
I am now trying to stop smoking weed aswell and am going to the psychiatrest on friday as my doctor thinks i may now be bi-polar.
yes it even gets me a bit paranoid now and again ...thats part of the buzz ...
it doesnt make me fucking shizo ...simply cos that aint in my make up.
if it's there it may well bring it on.
if it aint ...it going to create it ...you people need to avoid mind altering substances full stop.
I agree with rolly, symptoms may occur because of underlying mental issues etc not brought on solely due to the drug.
There is an old thread about it if anyone is interested, cannabis linked to mental illness.
If you would like to find out a bit more about schizophrenia the page on the Sane website is really informative. It includes the following statement -
It is likely not to make a completely sane person insane, but whats a completely sane person?
Luby; Cutting down because of someone else is never going to work, you either give up because you want to or you dont. 3 spliffs a week isnt going to affect your voice that badly.
As for those who have replied - the amount Trinity smokes may not seem a lot to you, but she was asking for advice on how to stop, not on whether she should stop.
Pardon?
It does not really work as a relaxing smoking mixture but it does give you that "Herbal" taste and enjoyment of smoking.
I stumbled upon this find (not intentionally). Its a pretty nasty way of making you feel sick every time you have a joint, but i kinda works...
Speak for yourself! :yes:
