How do I stop using drugs?

I have a drug problem. I need to stop using drugs, but it's gotten to the point where I can't even imagine a world without them. I started smoking at 14, began using marijuana shortly after that, and started pills, cocaine, duster, etc when I was 16.
So ITT: Your drug experiences, how you got clean, suggestions, etc.




Just smoke heaps of weed whenever you want something heavier.
At least you'll live longer and maybe get the chance to change your mind. The other sh*t'll kill you.

That's not making anything better though. I realize weed isn't addictive, but just gorging myself on bud instead of giving in to other temptations is not solving anything. I've been off everything including nicotine for about two days now and I'm really on-edge.
I think it will be worth it in the long-run though. Drugs have gotten me into so much trouble in my life; it's not worth it at all. I want to live independently and completely temptation free. I want to become a Christian and live how God wants me to. I just need to become a better person.

I'm just saying if you're going to give into any temptation you should probably make it weed.
Might give you a chance to have a good deep think about yourself and how you behave, too.

god isn't real bro.

taken it from my personal experience.
the sober life after the high life, is the new high life.
once you have control of yourself, you've won,
and all those who never tried it and left in the dust behind you.
just f**kin stop using em cold turkey and check out paradise.

>I want to become a Christian and live how God wants me to
clever OP, very clever

I don't plan on giving in to any temptation though. I posted this thread seeking some backup or adviceice from someone who does not use drugs. I want to know what I can do to fill the void that drugs left.
Also, I don't know why everyone thinks hallucinogens cause you to think deeply about things. I have to admit I thought this a few days ago. However, in hindsight, weed just distorts your perception to the point where you believe you're thinking deeply. When it wears off, you either A. Forget about what you were thinking or B. Realize your thoughts were actually quite elementary and not helpful at all. Think about that next time you get high; it's very true.

cold turkey,
paradise, paradise
start becoming successful & find some joy

Do drugs to escape your drug addiction. Simple as that.

Try a new drug. Like DXM.

Is there anything I can do as a catalyst for this whole cold-turkey thing? What are some good hobbies I could take up?

100% not trying to troll. I'm starting to think it's important to have faith. I don't think I can do this whole life thing alone. I need guidance and if Christianity can provide that for me, I'm down. This is coming from a previously devout athiest, btw.

Been there, done that. I don't need a new drug, I need NO dugs.

Pick up a biology textbook instead. It will provide all the guidance you need.

This almost has to be a troll. I mean, I feel like it's a troll but sh*t man, I just don't know anymore.

look up Narcotics Anonymous meetings in your area. go to as many as you can. it will help you resist the urge if you're serious about getting clean. i can say this from personal experience: it f**king WORKS
don't worry about anyone laughing at you or anything. people at NA meetings are the nicest people you'll ever meet.

reggae music
gardening
working out
job
something you have interest in
music instrument
it's as simple as this
people want to enjoy stuff,
people do not want to get arrested by police
with that in mind, find something that brings you change and grow up. mature. get older.
ever forward, backward never.
life sucks, but living is an art. you are in control of your ups and downs. you paint it.

The Rastafarian religion has always fascinated me. I don't think I would be able to do it though, namely because of the lack of Rastafarian churches in Eastern Kentucky. I probably couldn't stick with it without some fellow Rastafarian's.

Go camping in a remote area. Bring lots of food and water obviously. If you go through withdrawl, there'll be no place to get anything.

I smoked weed every day for about a year, quit cold turkey when my money dried up.
Oh god, the boredom...

I quit everything cold turkey on 4/20... approaching my one year anniversary of sobriety... punctuated by two raves where i did some ecstasy... but i think replacing an everyday habit with a twice a year habit was a great step... especially since i cut weed out of my life.
I had been trying to quit for awhile, but i would pretty much just break down once a week and smoke, until i eventually found some goals and priorities that i could put ahead of myself and focus on.
It's kind of hard to smoke weed when you know you have to go to work tomorrow.
It's kind of hard to smoke weed when you know you have to study 5 hours a day just to pass calculus.
It's kind of hard to smoke weed when you know it messes with your workout.
It's kind of hard to smoke weed when you know you need to use your drug money to invest in the stock market.
Eventually i just had so many other obligations that I didn't have time for weed anymore... worked pretty well. I missed it the first month, but after that you just kind of forget about it. The thought of smoking weed disgusts me now less than a year later.
I can't believe it... 7 days until it's been a year since i quit...
Also that dude going on about sobriety as the new high is totally right... I'd been walking around in a fog for so long that when i finally came out of it it was like another high.


This almost has to be a troll. I mean, I feel like it's a troll but sh*t man, I just don't know anymore.

Seriously? Does nobody come on web at all anymore with a serious topic? Has it gotten so bad that whenever I come to anonymous with a 100% legit concern everyone thinks I'm trolling? That's why I don't go to bee anymore.
Besides, even if I was a troll, this is actually a productive thread. That makes formulating an equally productive response worthwhile.

lol rasta has no church.
do good, follow your heart.
release yourself from mental bondage.
rastas can be completely different from one another, but they still follow their heart & do good. listen to rubadub, roots, dancehall, learn to f**kin dance & have a good time.

One of my friends found god on a mission trip and used that as his catalyst for change.
I don't know whether God is real or not, but I believe that the
Christian experience is a powerful one, and if you can find something positive out of it to make a life change then I say go for it.
You can start by just going to your church and seeign if they offer a youth group, or charitable group that you can go be a part of for one hour a week. Just find some positive people or organizations.
I joined a car club, a gym group, a study group, and I go to all of my company picnics and events. Their are positive people to be found all over the place, you just have to go where they are and let them in to your life.

I would definitely go for the job, but NO ONE is hiring around here. It's a bitch. However, I think I want to go pick up an acoustic guitar and learn to play now; it's been my dream since I was a little kid.

Great insight. I've been on a few trips with the youth group at one of the churches around here. I'm going tomorrow evening and hopefully I'll keep going.

start at mcdonalds,
apply everywhere,
don't look like a bum,
your attitude is what will get you hired & get you promotions.

I got drunk a few times and smoked cigs at 13. I started DXM occassionally when I was 14, and continued for two years. I started smoking weed just before turning 15. Tried shrooms and LSD at 16, and still use those two sometimes, and weed whenever I can.
I had to stop DXM because I was doing it every weekend, which is unhealthy. I was also taking about a gram or more for each trip, and weighed 120lbs, which meant I was doing more DXM and weighed less than the majority of all ab/users. I was slowly going crazy, hallucinating while sober, getting depersonalized, losing touch with reality, becoming very paranoid, and all the while believing I was coasting down a path to spiritual enlightenment like some sort of cough medicine prodigy. This level of DXM abuse combined with my teenage hormones was probably what did it, because I haven't heard many similar stories (though I haven't heard of many people doing the same doses at the same frequency).
When I was 15 I also started experimenting with deliriants- first I went for datura, then DPH. They each have a place in my heart, but most people dislike them. Datura especially.
I hope to eventually buy pure MDMA to try, and will extract DMT for myself and close friends in the semi-near future. I grow mushrooms, have grown weed but do not currently, grow datura, and grow a cactus conatinging mescaline which I have not yet tried, but will someday.
I just read

That's not making anything better though. I realize weed isn't addictive, but just gorging myself on bud instead of giving in to other temptations is not solving anything. I've been off everything including nicotine for about two days now and I'm really on-edge.

Ditch all dealers, friends, contacts, hangers on involved in the scene.
Avoid contact with things tha will make you fall back into your old way of doing things.
Don't have alcohol, drugs etc. where you live. Make sure it is a f**king hassle to get them.

Have someone administer your money for you.

don't give up o nthe job.
You'd be surprised what a good impression, nice clothes, a smile and a firm hand-shake, looking the hiring manager in the eye, and some polite conversation can do.
I got a job at Pedernales Electric for 14.25 an hour when they WEREN'T hiring just because i went in and made an awesome first impression on the hiring manager.
By "not hiring" they just mean they aren't actively looking for new employees, you just need to show up and make them think "we have to have him." Or, "We can't let him walk out the door."
Good on you with the guitar, but remember the difference between a worthless dreamer and a good person is that the dreamer is constantly planning and never doing, while the regular person is starting somewhere, anywhere... just as long as they are taking a step in the right direction.
Don't think, do. Pick up that guitar and tune it... if you don't know how, youtube it. Then learn all of the notes... and ad infinitum until one day you're f**kin kenny chesney.
Don't put off for tomorrow what you can do today, that's where it all starts.
I'm this guy.

I started with one simple choice, and now I'm at a place in my life that I couldn't even imagine a year ago. And I'm still improving, still taking it one step at a time, in one year I hope to be even more improved form where i am now.
May the best of your todays, be the worst of your tomorrows.

I found God too or he found me ... whatever, right? The feeling is different and it's new, there's peace of mind and random moments where I just smile. But preaching is something I don't do except someone who likes the way I carry myself specifically asks me. I've long discovered this feeling is indescribable and my efforts to tell others how to feel it is futile. Just live and learn.

Well, it was solely the mention of christianity that turned me against it. No big deal though, you can believe it if it seems right to you. Good luck with getting clean.

What goes into a man's mouth is not what makes him unclean. What comes out of a man's mouth causes him to be unclean.
Smoke, drink, pop pills, just love and respect god by respecting his people. Christianity isn't about repression, it's about kindness, acceptance and bettering the world. At least... it was until the filthy Catholics and protestants got a hold of it.

This.
Anyways, for me, anxiety kinda kicked my ass recently. Top it off with being laid off last November and having absolutely jack sh*t to do, I spent a whole month smoking cheeba and after that started getting jittery and sh*t. Basically going stir crazy.
Anywho, it would trigger panic attacks and sh*t, so weighing out being stoned and wigged out of my mind or bored and fairly sane, I choose the latter.
For me, it definitely did get easier as I stayed cleaner for longer. Been smoking(marijuana) since 2000 with a few dabbles with meth and just a pinch of ecstasy. I quit meth cold turkey after a year and some change, though I did have the help of heavy marijuana use during that time.
I hate to say it, but another addiction did help me kick a worse(IMO, flame me trollf**s if you dare) habit. Though instead of another drug I'd recommend you take up hobby or sport. Maybe even bowflexing.

god damn am i glad i'm a fa**ot OCD lightweight who freaks out by smoking half a gram of weed
if not for that i would have done every drug under the sun by now, and never looked back

I know... Whether it's tangible or not, it's definitely real. I felt so on edge today, so I just closed my eyes and spoke with Jesus. Afterwards, I had such peace-of-mind. It was incredible. Call it a placebo effect, but I think faith has the potential to be the most potent drug in my life.

My friends completely support me. With us, there's never been an issue of peer pressure or pushing drugs on eachother. Sometimes, some of us would quit smoking weed for awhile when we were younger. The ones who still toked were proud of those who didn't. Well-until we all started smoking again, then it didn't really matter.


I know... Whether it's tangible or not, it's definitely real. I felt so on edge today, so I just closed my eyes and spoke with Jesus. Afterwards, I had such peace-of-mind. It was incredible. Call it a placebo effect, but I think faith has the potential to be the most potent drug in my life.

God is just being human, it's in our genes so to say. The more you let it grow naturally the more unbelievable it can become.


That's not making anything better though. I realize weed isn't addictive, but just gorging myself on bud instead of giving in to other temptations is not solving anything. I've been off everything including nicotine for about two days now and I'm really on-edge.
I think it will be worth it in the long-run though. Drugs have gotten me into so much trouble in my life; it's not worth it at all. I want to live independently and completely temptation free. I want to become a Christian and live how God wants me to. I just need to become a better person.

Protip: Don't quit smoking cigarettes at the same time as drugs. That'll make you go apesh*t within a few days. Quit smoking after you quit other drugs.


I'll have such a hard time doing that though. I love my friends a lot and can't imagine not having them in my life.

It's hard, and TBH I pussied out and just MOVED THE F**K AWAY because I didn't have it in me to cut my friends out of my life. I still see them every now and then (once in a blue moon), but they are no longer influences on my life and I'm able to push my life in a more positive direction.
I still know ONE person in my new city who I can get anything under the sun from. But he doesn't bring sh*t over to my house or give me stuff for free all of the time, and he lives 40 minutes away... I've only used him once so far and I consider him "special occasion guy."
You HAVE to surround yourself with positive influences, and keep negative influences to a minimum. The people around you are always trying to bring you to their level, if they're below you they'll constantly pull you down, if they're above you they'll constantly pull you up. Choose where you want to be and hang out with people who are already there.
Birds of a feather don't flock together. Flocking together makes birds of one feather.

yeah out of my drug friends,
2 are still my friends,
f**k the rest, they'd exploit the sh*t out of me


Protip: Don't quit smoking cigarettes at the same time as drugs. That'll make you go apesh*t within a few days. Quit smoking after you quit other drugs.

Let's just say certain events in my life have made cigarettes the most important things for me to quit right now.

how old are you?
like highschool, or college
or like real world job age?

In the area where I live, it's a challenge to find someone who DOESN'T at least smoke weed. That makes users around here a little less manipulative, because it's sort of the social norm. However, there still are some who could be sharing a bowl with you one minute and holding you at gunpoint the next. Those are the kinds of people I need to avoid.

lol yeah out of all my old drug friends I only still talk to 2... they were the only ones who really cared, and I think it's funny how many of them were just influencing me or hanging out with me to get to my dealer, or to toke with me.
Although I'm not really mad, I put myself in that situation and these are the consequences.

Highschool.


Highschool.

your doing fine,
now you just need to grow up haha

Sup anons?
I have a drug problem. I need to stop using drugs, but it's gotten to the point where I can't even imagine a world without them. I started smoking at 14, began using marijuana shortly after that, and started pills, cocaine, duster, etc when I was 16.
So ITT: Your drug experiences, how you got clean, suggestions, etc.
Pic slightly related... kinda.

What drugs are you focused on / doing most heavily right now?

I've done tons of drugs...I'm glad to say i stick to marijuana
Anything else isn't too kosher...That's my 2 cents


What drugs are you focused on / doing most heavily right now?

Mainly marijuana, cigarettes, and pills like DXM and Zanax.


Mainly marijuana, cigarettes, and pills like DXM and Zanax.

in highschool i quit pills forever (triple C was still one of my best memories)
smoked weed, it led to depression.
now i smoke weed a few times a year and sober is the most fun.


Highschool.

oh lol really?
Just high school?
I think you'll be okay, focus on you, and find something you enjoy. Find some careers that you might like and figure out soem degree paths to take you their. Don't let college come around just to find yourself unprepared.
High school is about f**king around and getting a bunch of sh*t out of your system, and getting into college so that the temptation to f**k up won't be there as much and you can focus on your life.

hmmm it sounds like you're a tard

hmmm it sounds like you're a tard

bro it's just weed it's not like your addicted to smack. just don't do it. that sounds way too simple i know, but it works!

Yeah, but it's hard to give up all the vices in my life. Once I quit cigarettes, but smoked weed every day. Another time I smoked cigarettes and quit weed for 4 months. Recently, I've been doing everything I can get my hands on. It's sad.

you're a pothead. deal with it. you will never accomplish anything in life.

My step mothers father told me to never do drugs, About a week before dieing of cancer So i never did, I used to do it with friends occasionally but after he told me that i stopped doing it completely i despise users now.. Just don't f**king do it, I don't even see why anybody uses unless for medicinal purposes the cons outweigh the pros by a quite a lot..

I f**king love my drugs and achieve great success on them. Get off that bullsh*t and get on opiates, the drug of champions.

Almost everyone in this thread is a scrub.
And OP is a teenage fa**ot who thinks smoking pot and popping some bars makes him an addict. You don't f**king know what an addiction is. Just stop and that's that; it's not f**king difficult at your stage. And you don't need to look to god or Alice in Wonderland, either. Humans are an alien experiment anyways.

It takes a couple weeks of being cold turkey to resist urges, do something productive or with meaning so that you will loose interest in staying at your friends getting baked or what ever you do. Once you feel you are a superior person compared to them, your half way there.
