Trying to stop cannabis

[mfjmfj]

I didn't realize how many people are trying to quit. I use to have a good handle on controlling my pot smoking but in the last 2 months I can not kick the habit. I'm usually very good a the start of day, telling myself...ok you can do this but by the time i get home I talk myself, creating all kinds of excusses to smoke. Now I'm getting concerned because for once I feel out of control and I don't like it. Does anyone know how long it takes to get ones lung back to good shape after quitting?
This is what pot has done to me: my memory is hit or miss, my lung capacity is bleek, I eat too much at night, I don't dream (at least I don't remember), I seem to have lost alot of my sense of smell and taste, I use way too much eye drops, I'm alway worried about my red and tired looking eyes, and the fact that I cannot concentrate on things very well.
thanks,

Can anyone else relate to my situation at all. thanks for your read.

Sure I can relate, my lungs and memory are crap too, I am also trying to stop.

Cannabis Abuse Addiction

I think allot of us can relate to that, allot of people who smoke dope heavily have problems with their lungs, memory and concentration. From what I have heard our lungs will always be permanently damaged from smoking marijuana, but mine did feel like they improved after a month or two of quitting, at least to a certain extent, I stopped coughing up so much brown tar like stuff anyhow.

How much do you smoke, have you tried to detox before? Are there any underlying reasons why you smoke, or do you just like to get high?

Questions

Today is day 70 without weed. I still don't sleep well and have bouts of depression and anxiety. How long will this continue and is there anything I can do to improve my situation. I smoked daily for about ten years.

Most people find the majority of detox symptoms are usually gone after a month or two. But it can vary depending on the individual, we all heal at different rates, what I would say is eat right, limit your caffeine intake, get plenty of exercise and give it another few weeks, if you feel the need there’s always the option of seeking professional treatment for your anxiety and depression. But there’s a good chance if they are detox symptoms, that they will clear up in another month or so. Did you suffer from anxiety and depression before you quit marijuana?
