As many of you know I became addicted to smoking marijuana to the point of smoking 20 to 30 spliffs a day!
Every time I pack it in...the main problem is the anger(none violent)
I'm prone to giving verbal abuse and emotional out bursts off line and online.
Has anyone here been through the same and is the grass greener on the other side, when you finally quit for good or get the addicition under control ( like become an ocassional puffer instead of all the time) How do I loose this anger I'm feeling....I've not smoked for nearly two weeks now.
:confused:

Not me personally, but I've known friends who've gone through the same. Peaks of restlessness and defensive upset behavior. Unfortunately most of them are still addicted.

I jest not, 2 an hour it adds up. It's like any other addiction stars off small and grows. I've rarely used any other substance for the last 8 years or so. Like if you drink or take anything else and smoke the mix pollutes the high of the smoke. And you tend to smoke less because it basically bollocks you if you smoke a lot mixed with drink.
So I rarely drink that was once another addicition
:) 20-30 i can barely smoke that amount of cigarets :)
..agression and possible depression are completly normal after that kind of addiction - i've been there! personaly i don't know how you managed to be agressive while stoned as hell but it probably has to do with your feelings for yourself (this was truth in my case):) i recommend physical excersise and meditation! trust me this works! :)

I'm half way there, been smoking 21 years most days. I lasted a month without some time this year. I get good stuff but know what you mean about the bad stuff had that in the past.

I'm fine when stoned, it's when I've got none. I exercise when stoned and when straight. Sometimes I feel useless etc, but it's anger about the crap in the world and other people that does it mostly.

Lol alright mate. They've broken for different periods of time before, sometimes a few (2?) months but ultimately they just weren't committed. Its a constant going back and forth with them plus some of their friends get them back into the habit.

One of my mates has been smoking for roughly the same amount of time. He's probably the worst one especially since he refuses to admit his addiction.

Actually, my son became extremely aggressive when smoking loads of shit. He was quite violent whereas normally he is a very quiet non aggressive person.
He stopped about 9 or 10 years ago after nearly losing his wife and family because of his violent outbursts.
Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Maybe a measured with-drawal in steps, in stead of cold turkey, would work better?

You beat me to it Byrdsmaniac!
I was going to suggest a very gradual withdrawal. When I came off anti-depressants (Seroxat) after having post natal depression, I just stopped the lot and I flipped! I was as mean and nasty as can be.Real venom. Horrible time for me and anyone around me.Took me about 3 months to recover.
I don't recommend cold-turkey!

Regardless the time you have used a drug, the slope has and always will remain a flat one. When you understand this completely your body will need no assistance from anything but your own mind.
I smoked every day for about 13 years then quit immediately for over 6 months.
I then returned to the daily smoke for another 5 years maybe and quit for good last December. No side effects whatsoever.
All you need to do is get yourself so paranoid that you cannot sleep for a week or two.
Quitting is easy after that ;)

It is funny how different people react diffrently to the same substance, I smoked more or less constantly for 18 years (except 2½ years when I was pregnant and breastfeeding) and the times when I dont feel like smoking for a while I get a bit sweaty for a couple of days and I dream more (the reduction of dreams is the only negative thing I feel it does to me) but thats all, and I dont feel I "neeed" to smoke either!
But I would agree that in your case a withdrawal period and lots of excersise sounds like a good idea!
Love and good luck
You dont need the stuff anyway

I have never suffered from a serious addiction, thank God, but there is an interesting thing about pot that me and several of my friends have experienced somewhat recently. I used to have no problem whatsoever smoking all night long, but now I really can't handle more than like 2 hits. After that point, I kind of have a dissociative experience and it really sends me on sort of a bad trip. At least 3 of my good friends have had the same thing happen to them. 2 of them used to smoke all day, every day. Has anyone else experienced this?

have you tried packing in the dope but not the fags? i find they are a good substitute for giving up dope- if you quit both then its a sharp shock....

You should be able to work it out without me stating the obvious. There are various ways of supporting and feeding a habit, the method suggested by chattanova was not mine.

I'm totally with ya on this... I was deeply addicted to it for over ten years, smoking day in day out and I know 20-30 spliffs a day is realistic.. At one point I got up to about 50 hot knives a day, with spliffs in between. That is all I did with my life for a while.
It even got to the point where I would leave half a spliff for the morning, wake up, spark it up and go to my front room to get the gas fire on, have a few hot knives and THEN have a wash and a cuppa, go back to the front room, possibly have 10 in a row and then something to eat. Then go back to my front room and sit there all day smoking them..
Then my money ran out!!!
It was a nightmare for a while, I went 2 days without sleep and was bitchy as hell to say the least..
I then had nearly a year off it and felt so much better.. I have a smoke from time to time and enjoy it, but I've promised my self I will never go back to how I was, and so far I've stuck to it..

Smack..maybe a regional term..hmm is that herion? I know that herion helped me get off all the other drugs that I was on. Wiped me slate clean. Now I have 20 needle marks on my arm..I call them freedom marks!!!

Yeah, smack is heroin... I was thinking about banging it up in my eyes so not to leave track marks on my arms, or maybe directly into the sole of my foot will be better.. hmmm :rolleyes:

a mate of mine has recentyl given both up and avoiding alcohol too :eek:
2 months in maybe now he has realised that it was the mix of baccy (hand rolled ) with weed that was doing it , he is looking good and not nearly as angry ranting as he would admit he had been , i think when the time is right for you you feel it and can capitalise on it :D
