I think the majority of people smoke it just to "look cool" especially in the clubs, parties and bars. Once or twice a month I'll smoke a blunt with a couple of friends of mine if they all choose to, but theres no harm in that as long as you smoke weed privately with friends and don't cause problems with people while your high. And marijuana is not addicting, that has been proven, its usually the addicting bull like cigarettes, crack, cocaine , and garbage like that can harm your body. You know how a lot of people say "I smoke cigarettes because I'm always stressed" its all in the mind, people will come up with anything. Whoever is quiting or has quited, more power 2 you... Don't let peer pressure fool you into smoking again, its not worth it. |
I felt lightheaded but I didn't go throw up. I didn't like it at all, along with the Black Mild cigar that followed. |

That's cool that you do no harm to other people while doing weed, but what about yourself? You're doing the most harm to yourself since you're the one smoking it. Here are some before and after brain scans. There's more but I can't be bothered to quote an encyclopedia:

I agree that weed is less addictive than cigarettes because nicotine is one of the strongest addictions out there, being physiological. however, saying weed is not bad for you is pretty stupid. though no one really overdoses on it or anything, people do stupid on it like drive or take public transportation and act retarded. being from NYC i see this all the time, though i'm not saying everyone here is a pothead lol.
the first time i had cigarettes and actually inhaled (the first few i ever had i didn't really know how to inhale) was on my fire espace and i nearly fell off but my friend was with me so he kinda helped me out lol |

Your link did not work by the way. I very rarely smoke weed btw. Just this year I remember smoking it 8 times and I'm planning to quit that bull because its not worth it. I only started smoking it about 5 years ago because of peer pressure with my cousins and yes your right I did contradict myself. Its better than 5 years on cigarettes which can really your lungs up and I don't drive or go to any public places when I get high, I went to a movie theater once with my girl and I was all ed up and I felt like everyone was staring at my girl and trying to take her from me, I was so paranoid. Anyway , New Years eve will be the last night I smoke..so you know I'm going to go out with a BANG. |

You know what they say about new year's eve:
My new year's resolution is.....blah blah blah......and end up breaking it the next month. I'm not saying you will but I hope you succeed in your battle against teh weed. After all this is what this thread is kind of about. By the way i would have sworn posting a correct link, but here it is. Just copy and paste:

I quit one year ago and it was easy. Because I read this book:
The Easy Way to Stop Smoking by Allen Carr. Just look it up on Amazon and read all the reviews!! I also loaned this book to two other people and they quit too. |
