Marijuana Addiction & Recovery Support Group

i think it might be time to weigh up whats more important to you, Take drugs and be homeless hungry and broke or kick the habit and be able to live a less stressful life!

In your curent position is it realy worth while continuing on the path of self destruction your on??
your only 18 hun and have your whole life ahead of you. we are hear for only a short time so please make the most of it instead of wasteing what time you have in a drug induced attemt to escape.
it may be time for you to become an adult and look out for yourself.
There is heaps of help out there but they cant help you if you wont help yourself. no one can do it for you.

I went into $30,000 debt in a matter of under 5 years to support my "drug habit" - %100 percent pot (of course some of it was the irresponsible lifestyle that went along with it.)

Now, over 6 years after I maxed out those 6 credit cards, I've been making monthly payments and owe under $3,000. That is a miracle.

I've been clean and sober 3 1/2 years now through marijuana anonymous and AA. I know there hasn't been much discussion of the 12 steps here on this forum.

Think about step 1 "We admitted we were powerless over marijuana, that our lives had become unmanageable"

You could even read the Life With Hope MA book on that chapter and think about how it applies to your life, and consider a meeting. They have them online at www.ma-online.org

Good luck. You are SO not alone.

Hey,

What happened then? You were so confident you were going to kick it. Whats going wrong in life that is making you feel that you need this stuff? Why do you need it?

I had over $1,000 this summer and it was spent on gas, fixing my breaks, weed and cigarettes. WONDERFUL isn't it? Now I have like $30 to my name. I am scared to add up how much of that was spent on the reefer, but I can't imagine spending $900 in one week on drugs. Maybe if it was blow, but shit girl!

When I had a financial crisis and maxed out all my credit years ago, I had to look at my daily, weekly and monthly spending, and logged every dollar spent. Guess which expent was the biggest when I counted the top three of food, rent and weed? You guessed it.

I am so glad to have that monkey off my back and I couldn't have done it w/out MA and AA.

The first thing to do is think of what this is costing you beyond finances...is it worth the fear or guilt or pain? I began a spiral into serious self hatred toward the end of my pot abuse. There is life out there! I am just now figuring that out myself. Thinking of you!
