I must be severely addicted because smoking weed has become a part of my everyday life to the extent that i will not go to class, work, or even to get something to eat unless i have smoked some marijuana. I feel like it is so important but when i do smoke it…it doesn’t even make me feel very good, sometimes i actually feel worse. I think i am so addicted because it just feels like a routine that i have gotten so used to…i get satisfaction out of the act of packing it and rolling it…and not much from the actual effects because i am so tolerant to it! Please give me some serious feedback from people who have quit for significant periods of time? Thanks!

My smoking is pretty bad. I started in 2004 @ age 19 as a social smoker, now I’m hitting 2 packs a day.

When I quit I want to go to sleep for 8-9 hours so that my body will have a head start on getting it out of my system. BUT, I dread how my body will react. Any idea of what it’ll be like?

I don’t want to push myself so hard that I die. I am 42 now. What is a good thing to do for aerobic exercise? How slowly should I start?

What signs should I look for to be sure I am not pushing to hard?

My boyfriend is a smoker trying to quit, but is having difficulty. I fully encourage his attempts, but he is having motivational issues. How can I help motivate him while still being supportive?

I’m just curious about why an antagonist of Herion has little affect on smoking cigarettes. I know much of smoking is psychological, but the affects of nicotene is bizzarly different when the half life of methadone dwindles.
Now that I have quit smoking after a 10 year stint the withdrawals are fairly difficult, but not nearly as bad as they were when I quit for 4 years, some 15 years ago.
Part of my reason for quitting was to save money I felt I was simply wasting. Another issue was that I was afraid my treatment program ( lifer at the clinic w/ ZERO dirties) could be masking the damage from smoking?
ADDED:after reading a couple of answers-
I am aware of it trading addictions. Personally I screamed to my local ADAHM board for the 2 years I was waiting to get it here in Columbus Ohio.
I pleaded that I was needing it for pain management. At the time the state government had it so clamped down for anyone to get that my H habit worsened. I lived and live with the stigma that the H way was a WRONG way to manage pain. Well no SH!$ ! Would not this be a good enough reason to educate and distribute? Of course not. Then ,and even now to a certain degree I get these pangs telling me, “Paul, you did what you could do to deal with it all. Of course if they just would have understood that I had a real need to maintain the normal state of mind that the illegal substance afforded me things could have been much much better for all concerned. ..then I feel the unsettling conspiracy pang-” waiting is how you get punished”.
Sorry about that. I never talk openly about this for a reason.

My girlfriend has been smoking for a few years before I came into her life and now since we are at 6 months I told her that I want her to start quitting because I **** smoking.

She has cut down to almost 3 a week when shes around me, but when she is with her friends (current smokers) or is drinking then she chain smokes non-stop.

It’s obvious that her trying to quit isn’t really cutting it and I want to find a way for her to be able to quit throughout the whole day everyday.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Keep in mind any attempt of me to take action by force results in her getting quite pissed at me, which stresses her more and makes her smoke more, so I’m trying to find an easier way for both of us

Thank you
