I’m a marihuana addict. I can’t seem to kick the cravings. Every time I think I have it beat, the craving to use grows stronger and more often. Today is day 172 of sobriety and I’m literally on my toes, going to grab my keys to get in my car and pick up some ganja. I know I shouldn’t and that I’ll regret it… sometimes I think I’m predisposed for cannabis abuse, that I’m wired to use.
I’m not giving in. I’m going to work on a project and keep myself busy.
i never really had a great experience with marijuana I always had some sort of hallucinatory experience.
maybe you can pick a good activity to replace the marijuana activity
If you do a hypnotherapy course they can make the smoking of cannabis so uncomfortable for you that you know when you smoke it you can become so paranoid that you can never smoke it for as long as the conditioned reflex response remains in place.
They can do the same for alcohol or any addiction if you are prepared to be hypnotised.
Hope you can kick the habit. Generally speaking , it is not good for schizophrenia or psychotic disorder. Do your best, I believe a large part of my recovery(?) is due to getting rid of marijuana use, and I am someone who rarely hears auditory hallucinations and visual ones rarely sees and then even negative symptoms aren’t always an issue either. I’m almost near normal I would say, slow or anxious but neither is beyond what is normal for someone less bright or someone prone to anxiety
