I want to quit smoking... can i just do marijuana instead? -
ive been smoking since i was 15, i did marijuana for like 11 times already for the past 2 months... i wanna quit smoking!help!
ok...I quit smoking on Jan 20th of this year...Its all in your head. I am 29 and started smoking when I was 14. You just have to make up your mind that you are never going to smoke again no matter what. Don-t give yourself a choice, in your head, you have to convince yourself that smoking is no longer an option. I promise you will get used to it. I feel so much better, I cant even explain it. I had forgotten what it felt like to actually breath a deep breath into my lungs. Feels good! Its all about what your telling yourself. Prepair yourself for what is going to happen. You have to know what to expect. You WILL try to reason with yourself. You will tell yourself that it is ok to have just one, just this one time, its ok, you can handle it. NO you can-t...it is the addiction, just know that this will happen and be prepaired to tell yourself no. Don-t start smokin pot instead...Stupid, Stupid, Stupid. and no matter what anybody else says...mental addiction is more powerful than physical addiction, so...just cause weed isn-t physically addicting don- t mean nothin. Just give it up all together...you can do it.
Good Luck...
that it-s better for you is not what I-ve heard, I can remember hearing on a tv program that marajuana is much more toxic, and smoking one joint is like several cigarettes. By all means research this. Look up the American cancer societies website for good tips and possible support for quitting. Your local hospital may have groups as well. Get to know yourself, when do you usually crave a cigarette? Can you avoid those situations, or have an alternative activity planned? Be patient with yourself, some people can just go cold turkey, others may try dozens of times before the change sticks, just DON-T give up.
smoking is smoking. no matter what the substance. if you INHALE it, that is carbon monoxide into your lungs. there is just as much harm from cigarette SMOKE as there is Pot SMOKE....
Oh yeah there-s a smart idea buddy...take up smoking weed to quit smoking cigarettes...then maybe when you want to quit weed...you can start smoking crack...or maybe shoot some heroin...
**idiot**
Are you smoking the mj? If you are then you are still smoking. Try switching to a REALLY nasty brand of cigarette for a while to aid you in quitting. That is what I did, two years ago and have not smoked since. Good Luck
i know it is difficult to quit smoking. find an altenative. like always eat candy. your mouth would be busy. in that way, you may forget smoking.
If marijuana will help you quit tobacco, go for it. It takes an average of 7 tries to quit, so do everything you can. Marijuana is considerably better for you health-wise and is not physically addictive, so you should be able to stop it whenever you want.
