Trying to Quit for Good

General

Hi guys, new member here :slight_smile: thanks for having me.

Ive been an on and off heavy user of weed for 10 years. Im from the UK so preferred method for most of us here is a “Spliff” (Tobacco+Weed). Anyway, ive quit before but stupidly made the decision to start smoking again. Im finding it harder this time to quit than before (i know this is due to age + more time smoking). I find my hardest time where i have the most cravings is during the day and i spend alot of time mentally thinking/fixating about smoking a spliff and this can literally replay in my mind for hours and i find it difficult to concentrate on other things. This in the past has caused me to relapse and phone my dealer for my “last bag” (it never is).

Thankfully i havent picked up anything on this attempt and am soldiering on. Any advice on the cravings guys and what works for you to beat them and any advice on not constantly thinking about weed would be great.

Thanks to everyone who reads and/or replies.

Hi! Thanks for sharing and congratulations for quitting weed. Once you get through the first month you will feel better, at least that has been my experience. My suggestions for getting through cravings are to take some nutritional supplements like a multivitamin high in b complex, extra vitamin D3, and extra vitamin C up to 4,000 milligrams a day spaced out through the day. Also make a list of why you are quitting and keep it on you so you can read it when you get cravings. You can do this! :hugs:
