Quitting cannabis was the best thing i did certainly this year and i’ve been thinking about how I can celebrate the day when it has been 1 year since i last smoked weed! The old me would probably celebrate by rolling up a huge joint, kicking back on the porch and sipping on an ice cold beer to help with the after-dry-mouth effect of the joint! hah!
The new me wants to do something physically challenging, like a mini-triathlon, or running up a mountain, or doing another sky-dive!! Any suggestions out there, please send me a comment! I would love to get some ideas – I want it to be something exhilirating adrenalin pumping – something that makes me feel ALIVE and helps me to acknowledge the great work i’ve done this year to stop smoking weed.
How To Stop Smoking Pot

If you’re wondering how to stop smoking pot, consider this. All you need to do is think about ‘why’ you want to quit weed. Once you have answered this question for yourself, the ‘how to’ will become clear and you can begin to take the steps necessary to quit smoking pot once and for all.
There is a distinction here between ’stopping’ and ‘quitting’. In my 20+ years as a marijuana addict, I had stopped many times…but i had never quit. Why? I believe this is because I never asked myself the question ‘Why do i want to quit weed?’. Instead I had just jumped right in to taking action steps to ’stop smoking weed’…and ofcourse these actions gave me results…but not long lasting results.
It’s all about the ‘Why?’…

Help Stop Smoking Marijuana
Posted by Stop Smoking Weed Now in Quitting Weed on November 10th, 2009
If you think you need help to stop smoking marijuana, my suggestion is to firstly get clear about why you want to stop. Until you figure this out for yourself you will find it near impossible to quit smoking weed. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but it is my truth, and I speak from experience of mire than twenty years addicted to marijuana!
My single clear reason for quitting was for my son, who was only about 3 months old at the time I quit. I didn’t want to be a drug addict parent raising this magnificent being of light! I wanted to quit weed so that I could put the best me forward to parent my son – he deserved it and so did I. Hid birth gave me the opportunity to step up in a way I had never before experienced. I am so grateful.
Stop Smoking Naturally

I was able to stop smoking naturally by combining a number of methods and taking massive action. It all started with mindset, and I suppose if I go a little deeper, it took me going into my heartspace to find out what it is I truly desire. I discovered what I knew to be my truth – the freedom that I sought from smoking weed, had turned on its head to become like a prison entrapping me in a cycle of desire to change my state daily through using pot. I was in a constant state of dis-ease with myself – always wanting to move away from the here and now. In discovering this, I realised that what i truly want is to be free of my addiction to marijuana, and to feel truly free in my natural state.
Quitting Smoking Pot
Posted by Stop Smoking Weed Now in Quitting Weed on November 3rd, 2009
Have you ever stopped smoking weed? In my 20+ years as a pothead, i had stopped many times. The length of time i stopped for varied from a few days, a few weeks, a few months, and even a year once (i think, though my memory is still a bit hazy). Quitting smoking pot however, is a different ballgame alltogether.
Imagine never having to have thoughts, cravings, or put out any more energy around how to score, when your next smoke is, how red your eyes look, trying to straighten up to meet people who are straight! Imagine being completely free from your desires, your addiction to pot.
Quitting Pot Smoking
Posted by Stop Smoking Weed Now in Quitting Weed on November 2nd, 2009
Quitting pot smoking is the single greatest action i’ve ever taken in my life. Period! The more distance I get from my life as a marijuana addict, the more I reflect on how incredible it was that for all those twenty plus years smoking weed, I never realised I was an addict. As I was able to stop for periods of time – a week, a month, even a year at one stage i think – I didn’t believe that ‘I was one of those addicted people’! Far out! How wrong I was! At the same time, it was an immense relief to me to have the realisation that I was addicted to weed. It was at that very moment that my life changed – it was a sweet gracious moment that I will be forecer grateful for.
About Smoking Pot

My nephew recently asked me about smoking pot. I told him ‘yes’ i had tried it. He asked me what it was like. At this point internally i was kind of freaking out. I didn’t want to promote it or make out like it was a great thing, but at the same time i needed to offer him some truth of my experience. I said to him that it could be a fun thing to try with your friends once or twice, but that for some people who like it too much, they could end up addicted to it and unable to live without it. I said I had also seen some friends go from smoking weed to trying and using other harder drugs regularly, and that this was very sad for me to see my friends wasting their lives away.
Effects Of Quitting Weed
Posted by Stop Smoking Weed Now in After Smoking Weed, Quitting Weed, Weed Detox on October 31st, 2009
There are many positive effects of quitting weed. Here are just some of the physical effects I have experienced;
1. Clear headed – especially in the morning.
2. I can breathe easy – no coughing.
3. My throat is no longer sore – I think I just got used to having a sore scratchy throat and then continued to self medicate through the day (by smoking weed!)
4. Energy levels – are just UP and going through the roof – probably helped by the fact that I’m now working out 4 or 5 times each week. I seem to have more energy when i expend more energy – which proves what I read once;
“Energy is maintained by exertion, not lost by it.”
Addicted To Weed
Posted by Stop Smoking Weed Now in Quitting Weed on October 30th, 2009
I never understood that i was addicted to weed, until i did some online research and got to reading the twelve questions on the Marijuana Anonymous website. It was when i answered ‘yes’ to almost all these questions that i had the gob-smacking realisation that i was addicted to weed.
This is when my life changing (oprah ah-hah) moment! Fro this point i was able to then seek some help and begin to make changes to support my desire to rid myself of this addiction and live my life free from addiction.
Until you have your own ‘ah’hah’ moment when you accept yourself as addicted, you will never be able to make the shift for good.
I truly wish you love and respect your choices.
I Quit Weed
Posted by Stop Smoking Weed Now in After Smoking Weed, Quitting Weed, Weed Detox on October 29th, 2009
It’s been almost ten months since i quit weed. I was speaking to a close friend this morning and she congratulated me and told me she had stopped smoking weed two weeks ago. I feel so happy for her even though she is at the start of her journey…
At the same time i felt so proud of myself for having these ten months between my old life as a marijuana addict and now. I cannot rave enough about how great i feel to be free from my pot addiction. On the outside nothing has changed…but on the inside I have a real sense of freedom – the freedom that i sought from smoking pot over twenty years ago. How ironic!
