Quiting Weed (lemm.ee)

Hey all,

I couldn't find a community for helping quit weed but I thought this place might be close for it.

I've quit so, so many times before and I'm tired of the rollercoaster I'm on. I quit, my life gets better, I smoke, my life gets worse. I feel like every time I quit, it just takes one lapse in judgement to go back into it, and it can happen anywhere any time. I need help and I don't know who to talk to.

I saw that N-acetylcysteine can help quit, and I'm wondering if anyone else knows about this or has experience with this supplement?

As a very regular user and the child of drug counselors, I wish you the best of luck. This of course a willpower thing but it's also about reinventing your life to limit the scenarios that encourage your use.

I think you've got this. If the desire to change leads you to act to change these habits, you'll be in a better place to make those changes.

And let this be a warning to you about other drugs and your potential susceptibility to them! Pot might be just pot in a lot of people's minds but it is still a habit forming substance.

Yep. I'm not against folks smoking at all, but one man's medicine is another man's poison.
