September 2nd, 2010
i started smoking on halloween and now i can’t quit. im 14 years old. what should i do? my mom was addicted to drugs and she is now involved in narcotics anonymous. i don’t want to tell her im addicted because im afraid she’ll hate me. she always hated drugs so much. weed is taking over my life. all i ever think about is how to get weed, and when to smoke weed. i was even stealing change from around the house and from my little sister just to get weed. how do i quit?
i know i’m addicted. i feel depressed when i don’t smoke it, so i always smoke it. i use it when im sad, i think i know im addicted. that was not the question. thankyou to the other answers though.

First of all, try to stop buying it. It is all in your head. It’s a habit. If you don’t buy it, then it’s not around for you to smoke.
Try not to be around other people that are doing it.
You must find a reason to stop. For example prejudice. Believe me, the people who are against weed are many and also realise what you’ve been through.
Smoking weed could possibly cause you harm.
Change your routine’. Take up jogging, get a new hobby, get a new job, start working out, or better yet, try adopting someone less fortunate than yourself. Spend some money on them instead of weed. Not only will you get a wonderful “rush”, but you’ll really make someone’s day (or year). And you’ll take your mind off yourself and onto some kid who could use a friend or a new basketball, or an old lady who needs her house painted, or her plumbing fixed. See the tear in someone’s eye who is so grateful they are speechless because they know they can never repay you.
Willpower isn’t the most important aspect. The addiction is not physical; it’s all in your mind. The trick is to stop smoking and find something that makes you interested at the same time, taking your mind off weed and moving your leisure time in a different direction.
Good luck!
You just have to quit. Pot isn’t physically addicting in the same way that many other drugs are. You won’t have any withdrawal symptoms when giving it up but that doesn’t mean it’s easy.
Get involved in other stuff and keep busy so you aren’t thinking about it. Whenever it comes into your head tell yourself, “No, I don’t want that!!” even if you’re telling yourself that over and over. Just keep it up and find something else to think about, something else to do.
Your not addicted to pot.
Your just an impulsive teenager.
How do you quit?…….Don’t buy it.
Don’t hang out with people who smoke, don’t buy it and get a constructive hobby. You are too young to like smoking like that.
On a deeper level, getting high is a way to forget about your problems and not care. This does not make them go away. Figure out what issues are underlying you wanting to smoke pot. This will be hard since you are a kid, but ask an adult to maybe get you counseling. Or, talk to one at school.
It’s not addicting.
Nothing bad will happen to you if you just stop. There’s no physical pain or anything. Just remember if you really want to quit just do it. It’s all in your head.
