Marijuana becoming a problem

considerateAvocado8135 September 15th, 2023

Hey all I've been smoking

Marijuana for about 12 years now I never had a problem until recently.. i feel like it's becoming a crutch I've been abusing it smoking it way too often its clouding my judgement making me make stupid purchases etc. Holding me back so to speak especially in my professional life way too many missed opportunities for what.. im struggling with getting it out of my life.. suggestions?

you already made the First BIG step many people can not seem to grasp acknowledging this has become a problem. that is the first step in any problem knowing it is one.

The second is hard too in deciding what to do and sticking with it. perhaps cutting use out all together is your goal many things you can try the success is dependent on you being your own accountability in stopping if the urge to use comes up

I used to be like this. And it creeps to where you are hiding it. I can tell you I don’t regret one bit stopping. One day at a time. It might mean removing yourself from people or places that make it “easy” to smoke. But try one day without. And then another. Find a hobby.


my life has grown in leaps and bounds since I stopped.

Thank you all for your help little update on life here I've quit smoking it all together made big moves.. im currently working in an oilfield position which requires clean testing just the little bit of motivation a guy needed to make better choices. Not trying to brag or anything but since acquiring this job I've made huge moves in the right direction.. the money helps too! Don't miss the hold it had on me one bit.. so what I'm saying is If I can do it so can you!! Be happy love yourselves take care everyone!
