Marijuana Withdrawal : A Short Guide

By Mark Walters

This is a short guide on how to stop smoking marijuana. I highly recommend you to stick to this step by step process for a minimum of 21 days, 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 need 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 those who write their goals tend to reach their goals more often than those who don't write their goals 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: Know exactly why you want to quit 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 know your inner reason, you will have a strong enough reason to achieve your goal of becoming sober.

Once you have clarity, you will have all the motivation you need to see you through the tough times. Without this clarity, you will almost certainly fail, because when you feel tempted to smoke, you will have no good reason not to.

Step 3: Don't keep it a secret.

There is power in telling others that you will stop smoking marijuana. That's because once others know, there is that added pressure to really achieve your goal so you won't lose face. This is a simple little trick to help you get that extra motivation to do what you promised you would do.

Step 4: Find something more productive to do with your time.

If you are currently smoking a lot of marijuana, then you probably don't spend much, if any, time doing activities other things. That is why you want to discover those passions that you used to love prior to smoking before. - 31816
