In need of advice...
I smoke weed since my early teens and started daily usage around the age of 19 years old. I’m 25 years old now and since then I have only stopped smoking on counted occasions and for no more than 3-4 weeks. The last time I took a pause was because my daily usage was becoming too heavily and affecting my daily life, at that time stopping was easy. After I stopped I began a healthy lifestyle (exercise daily and good diet) that continued for almost an year, until one year ago where I started increasing my usage (5 joints a day atm), I’ve become lazy, moody and with no motivation at all and stuck in a circle of smoking, work, sleep, food, smoke, smoke, smoke……
I tried stopping cold turkey but the psychological withdrawal symptoms are too much and I find myself going back to smoking or vaping, are there any techniques to spot the craving?
This might be a long shot but if any anons know about an HOLLISTIC approach to this wholes DETOX process it would be much appreciated but, but all advice will be read and comprehendend.
Thanks in advance

If it doesn't work (It's really hit or miss) then just stop gradually.
You need to break the habit too for example. You smoke one with your coffee in the morning ? Skip the coffee, drink Orange juice and run a mile.
After work you usually get on the couch and play vidya when smoking ? Break that habit, pick up your dusty guitar and play for an hour or just go for a walk.
Also don't keep an emergency stash "just in case" once you stopped. If you don't have any, you won't smoke. You may get bored and think of that but it'll pass eventually.

Think hard about why you want to quit
Go so far you even create a list
Create a list of postive and negative effects from smoking
Create a list of things that motivate you to stop and things that stop you from changing
It's all about creating a good vision of what you realy want and whats stopping you
if you really want to stop, just stop

Do I smoke weed and eat brownies
I'm 2 weeks off after smoking daily for like 8ish years. Honestly it hasn't been hard mentally. Weed became a convenient thing to do after work but it became my whole night. When I was high I was content but I wasn't doing anything, just getting couch locked and consuming media. I want more out of life and honestly I'm a much more productive person when not high. My rule I've set for myself is that I won't buy or have any around, but if I'm out with friends and they want to smoke before seeing a movie or something, I'll do that.
The night sweats are the worst though. I agree that weed isn't physically addictive but there's definitely withdrawl symptoms

>INB4 night sweats
>What is physical withdrawal symptoms
night sweats = physical symptoms
physically addictive = physical symptoms
not physically additive = physical symptoms
>physical =/ physical
nice logic.

Weedfags are always in denial.
It's NOT addictive and it cures cancer and shit man!
When I quit last year, I picked up another thing to do to replace it. I used to smoke in the evening and just play Vidya/chill out, and when I quit I picked up anime and just bought things like root beer or other snacks to snack on.
It made it substantially more bearable.

weedfag reporting, trying to get off it. know its addictive and shitty to do
Highjacking OPs thread, how does weed affect gains? I mean, does smoking once a week/every two weeks negatively impair your lifting?
