Guys, I don't even smoke that much but I feel I'm way too dependent on weed.
Like, to the point where a day is good/bad depending on if I can smoke or not.
Thing is, I don't actually dump all my money into it or anything like that. I'm NEET tier and pretty poor so I don't actually have the luxury of getting incredibly stoned, yet I still really enjoy getting high.
I'm pretty much sat here with a tiny bit of weed left and its literally getting to me that this is my last bit. My thoughts are ranging from "will this even get me that high" to literal depression. It's fucking annoying.
So I want to give it up. Because I'm rather tired of my life revolving around the green shit, as good as it can be.
Problem is though, I can't just give it up casually. I'm a depressant by nature and I'm genuinely rather lonely. The few friends I do have all smoke as well.
Deep down idk if it's my depression, my lack of life/money or the actual weed that's doing a lot of this shit to me, but simply because of the fact that I feel dependent on a drug that I can't afford, I wanna give up.
Anyone with similar issues or whatever, even non weed/drug related, any advice? I really feel lost right now.
actually very common for those who arent happy with there standard of living to turn to substance abuse/dependency. I think the best thing you can do right now is focus on opening your social circle, meet some new people. If you are into minatures, go paint in the Warhammer stores. Go to a club get fucked and meet some new people, ask some friends if there are any parties etc.
I get nervous about talking to total strangers so for me I just go to a smallish party get down a few drinks and im smooth sailing.
I don't make too much money either, and I can tell you it's a strain if you let it get to that point. I've been instituting a reward system for myself; call it short-term coping. Basically, I go out, do things, go about my day, and then I toke. Not too much either, just enough to feel it. If you can go without it for 3 days, then you will appreciate it more, not to mention your tolerance will go down and less becomes more.
In other words, distract yourself. Be it work, job, gf, hobby. When your friends offer, just politely decline. You don't "need" that shit to have a good time. You "want" it.

I'm feeling the warhammer stores right now. I have a pretty respectable collection from my teen years that I never really got to use. Living in London it's actually pretty hard to find a circle for them.

Yeah I try and make myself proverbially earn it if I have it.
Like, I'm not gonna get high if my room is dirty, or I havent tried to get a job. I'm gonna hopefully end up back in college so I can actually study to distract myself.
I still like getting high obviously, but I feel it should be something rewarding, not something that makes me think about life every time.
