im thinking about it. In college perhaps i wont smoke weed?

like i dont see anything wrong with smoking weed but its gettting old. And i dont want to have to worry about getting caught in college cause u can get kicked out for that right?

I am thinking Maybe i will not smoke weed in college and only smoke when i am home (christmas and spring breaks, summer vacation, etc)

What do you think about this? Cause i like getting drunk much more and u cant really get in trouble for drinking (maybe with your girlfreind but not the police hahaha).

You can't REALLY be this stupid...

Oh yes he can...Have you read other threads posted by this douche?

give quitting a shot, it can't be a bad thing. if you're chronic, slowing down is always tough for the first 2-3 days but you'll come out of it. by tough i mean you may get headaches, you may be irritable, etc. the withdrawal symptoms aren't that bad. i do believe there is a chance of getting addicted to anything under the sun, and pot is no exception. however, with the right personality type and situation, it can be especially addictive. something else you might realize when slowing down is that your sleep will be fitful and your dreams extremely vivid and powerful. not sure why this is, perhaps it has something to do with not remembering many dreams while you are in the midst of what some refer to as "marijuana psychosis" - what you enter when you become a chronic user.

don't be afraid to contact someone to ask for help - even just to talk about it and educate yourself some more on the topic.

my advice to you would be: if you're off to college - don't make it your "thing". the last thing you want is to be associated with it. it's one thing to be "cool" about it, but you don't want to attract any attention or a bunch of stonies that basically legitimize their own drug problems by associating with you. i don't mean to group pot in with all the other junk out there because personally i don't see it that way, but you get the idea. you're heading into an exciting time... don't be a stoner the whole time. make sure you enjoy a significant amount of time and people while you are clear-headed. people will respect you more that way and see that you're more than just the token pothead (pardon the pun). honestly - people like that are a dime a dozen these days, and they almost seem to use their uber-pothead as a status symbol. pretty lame... be yourself first and let all other things be secondary.

:cool:

What you choose to play hard with is no one's business but yours.
But if you're not working hard enough, you don't deserve the victors' spoils.

I'm curious about those referring to it as though it's an addiction to "quit"...what gives? I dabbled in some of that in college and high school, and had no problems "quitting" whenever. I'd smoke once in a while when the mood struck me (probably once a month or so), and since college I just haven't touched the stuff.

Cigarettes I can understand "quitting", and coffee, but pot? Is it that addictive for some people that they actually have to force themselves to "quit"?

Its not addictive but u have to conciusly quit. Like i get offered to smoke weed for free every day multiple times

Like a month ago i went down the shore for 9 days and didnt smoke weed and it wasnt difficult and i hardly even notice

If you're not 21 you can get in trouble for drinking. Somehow, I don't think you're 21.
