This is a guide on how to stop smoking marijuana. I highly recommend you to stick to this step by step process for a minimum of 3 weeks, as studies have shown that you can develop a new habit by doing something 21 consecutive days in a row.
Step 1: Write down your personal goal of quitting marijuana.
You want to write down that you are determined to stop smoking marijuana and the reasons why you want to do so. By writing down your goal, you will have better success achieving it. Studies have shown that people who write their goals are much more likely to achieve them than those who don’t write them down.
Be as specific as you can when writing down your goals. Reasons, dates, targets and rewards should all be clearly detailed. You can keep this information private, or you can share it with a close friend or two if you feel that you would prefer some support.
Step 2: Be clear on why exactly you want to stop smoking marijuana.
The most important step is to find out your own inner reason. You want to dig deep inside and find out the core reason you want to quit smoking pot. Once you figure out that deep inner reason, keep it at the forefront of your mind and come back to it whenever you feel tempted to smoke again.
Step 3: Don’t keep it a secret.
It helps to share your goal with others. The reason being that once others know, there is a certain added pressure to follow through. You will also have moral support available to you when you most need it.
Remember that it is something to be proud of, rather than feel ashamed about. You are making a change for the better and those close to you will be pleased for you, and will be more than happy to help you in any way that they can.
Step 4: Find a replacement activity.
If you are a chronic pot smoker, then you probably don’t spend much, if any, time doing anything else. Therefore, your mind is always thinking about smoking, because it has nothing else to occupy itself with.
