I was forced to quit toking by the wife about 4 weeks ago.. long time smoker, like 27 years now.

Smoked prob just under a quarter a day.

I was surprised it wasn't that hard to just quit... but I had some bad withdrawals some days. Def want to strangle someone, but I decided to just have a beer or two lol

You'll hack up black shit for 2 weeks or more, guaranteed. I also had some lung/chest pain at times but subsided. Most like from hacking the black shit up.

All in all, it wasn't as bad as I thought, and Im also easily addicted to shit.

I did sneak In a toot the other night in the shed as the wife was well.. that time of month I guess. Fuckin bich :p

Good luck OP!

Talk to her so she can let it out and move past it. Communication is huge. If you're a good listener she might let you keep your balls.
Well, after standing by her for 13 plus years, lately quit toking like she demanded, hand over my paychecks as demanded, tried going above the petty bs lashing out at me for everything, moved her mom into my basement after her stroke so she could retire and pay cheap living costs, spent $30,000 renovating a living room/bedroom/full kitchen etc for her... after moving across Ontario to buy a house closer to her dad who was terminal cancer...

I'm the big bad asshole.

So I bought some bodhi packs... that was fireworks. She spying on what I buy now too. Lmfao

Fuck me, what bs.

Sorry you're getting the 'treatment'. I was given a similar demand many years back. Never even raised my voice, all I said was, fine, but you're paying the bills from now on! Y'all know how that worked out!
Sometimes all you can do is be the best 'you' that you can be. Never doubt yourself without reason! Best of luck brother;)

You know, maybe I'll try that.
I do all the finances and taxes too.

I'll stick to the 'high' road i suppose. I got two amazing daughters and they make me the happiest regardless.

Enough of my ranting :p
Back to the weed channel!!

Cheers!

Your gonna be depressed for awhile getting off weed but in the long run you will feel better.
There should be no reason to be depressed, if it was something you wanted to do and not forced. Don’t put unnecessary pressure on yourself.

Good luck OP.

"So does anyone have any tips on how to quit the herb cold turkey?"

Quit cold turkey. Push through the initial hump. Could be as much as six months to a year. For me, took 1 year before I stopped having daily nicotine cravings when I quit smoking cigarettes. For three years I got occasional cravings. Seven years later and im so happy i quit paying for my air, and perhaps I'm even more angry at big tobacco when I realize what they took. i didn't get shit from smoking except stinky clothing and further away from the life I want. Still chasing it..

It will get easier each day. Just change your mind when you try and talk yourself back into it. take responsibility for what you put inside of you. and for what you think. I drank so much in my life when I quit it did some weird shit to me. I am not an alcoholic by any means of the definition and i absolutely should be for how much I've consumed over a good span of time. Cold turkey and a stubborn mind, simple as that. I still keep alcohol and occasionally take a few shots of peach schnapps, or a glass of champagne, but seldom have cravings, and never go to gas station and buy those four loko things anymore. I remind myself each day reading the news about how someone killed someone in a DWI and is going away for life. I also never go to bars. More danger..

I think a healthy fear of things can set you straight. I straight up think AA/Recovery programs and their psychological conditioning and Christian values are the back-end of full of shit capitalist schemes, perhaps connected to the very forces selling this shit.

I don't smoke weed often but I love the plant and love growing and I hope you find your peace

Hmmmm.......... since pot has always been my source of happiness to counter all traumas and negative vibes in general and a guide to the path of inner peace (sort of), ever since I first started before the dinosaurs, you get no good quitting advice from me!

Other than to maybe just start up again and weigh the consequences. And keep on keeping on with this weed forum. They might not be as bad as all that! (the consequences that is)

BTW- I been smoking the crap out of this cannabis for decades now so I am just a little biased in that regard in more ways than one

:cool:

I've found weed to be easy as shit to quit. I've been smoking daily for 20 years, and about a year ago I realised that I need to cut down.

I smoke for two weeks or so after I harvest and then I sell it all, go dry for 8-10 weeks and then repeat.

Just do something else...fill your time up with other shit. It's not really that big of a step to take. If you are active and out the house, you won't miss it that much.

I find I enjoy smoking a thousand times more when it's earned than when I was smoking Daily for 20 years.

Best tip I found for me was to grow. If I'm growing weed I can just look at it and be relieved, and don't need to smoke it. I tried quitting when I wasn't growing and it never worked.. now that I grow, when I get cravings I can just look at my plants and it soothes it a lot.

Another tip. Don't tell yourself you are quitting. Tell yourself you just don't want to smoke for a while. If I can't have something ever again, I want it...if I know I can have it whenever I want but choose to abstain it's no big deal..

I've heard this from a lot of people who have quit. If you are treating it like a permanent ban you will want to start up again asap out of pure spite.

I refuse to hear it, weed, addiction and withdrawal shouldn't be in the same sentence that's lame :-(

We might want it, we might crave it but it's not physically addictive, I've craved tea and going fishing but that doesn't make it addictive.

I smoked last on Thursday night week before last. I got done with my antibiotics yesterday, but still going to go a few days more to make sure my tooth doesn't show it's ass again. ($3K+ for a root canal and crown, or $150 to pull it. I still haven't decided which I will do)

On camp night I take out some of my stash, clean and roll a couple joints. That has been enough to relax me.
