By the way, marijuana can be psychologically addictive for people who are weak minded, a weak addiction but an addiction nonetheless . While you may not be addicted some people can be. I say even if your father isn't paying you, you should try to take a break every once in awhile just to prove to yourself you can, if you can't even go a week without resisting the urge to smoke then you may have a problem.

I'm not one to smoke constantly, but I space it out so it isn't like... ALL THE TIME. I personally believe I have a strong mind, and I will be able to do the break without a problem :p
You could just stop getting high for 2 months.
yeah i'm pretty sure your dad knows that if he loses the bet you'll still go back to getting high to be honest, i'm sure it's just a way for him to get you to stop doing it for a while in the first place as he thinks it might be beneficial if you at least took a break that or he's just stupid

When you win money you give it all to me cause you sniffed my mxe and ate my spice for 5 months. LOL

Youre a little bitch... youre trying to bring the total of money that you fucked your parents out of with your fuckin self proclaimed "downs witchcraft" bullshit, while managing to be racist, a total prick, a bad son and give a bad reputation to stoners and downs syndrome people everywhere. And if you think quitting weed is hard, try dealing with the demon of narcotics that leans over my shoulder all the time... even though Ive never really been physically addicted, for I dont even know how long, about 6 months, Ive been taking 300-600mg's of morphine anywhere from one to four or five days a week, with various other drugs interspersed, benzos (ambien, flexeril, ativan), random opiates (methadone, vicodin, percocet, tramadol), and lots of adderall and caine. Shortly before this period started up, I was introduced to heroin by a pretty close associate and weed dealer, I found the only drug that stands up to weed... and sorry guys... but heroin is fucking heaven.. but I feel like it has a piece of my soul even worse than the pills do. For like 3 months I was doing it 1-5 days a week, and then they had to kick it after being hooked fucking bad each putting a G of good white H up their noses. I was so fucking mad when that ride ended at first... I still dream about it all the time, doing lines, oh god.. I have to stop myself all the time from planning to get money around and calling my guy in the southside hood and have him round me up a nice half gram or gram pack... Guys, I have a confession; I dont really get high anymore unless I smoke ALOT of medical, wake n bake, or some good fucking narcotics, wether its coke, amps, heroin, morphine or oxy... Ive made for myself a bed that I have to lay in... and its not one that everyone finds themself in, even though people try to stereotype that with the gateway drug thing... Ive desensitized myself to drugs by the sheer fucking amount Ive done since I got into them, every last drug I could get my hands on from dxm, morning glory seeds, acid, salvia etc. as well as smoking weed every day for the last 3 years with my only breaks longer than a few days being when I was on tether and when I was in the county jail. So take T breaks guys... and dont become a pill poppin, heroin snortin, cigarette smokin, 3 time felon 19 year old...
No I'm not? I didn't start the bet with him, he started it with me. I wouldn't have made the bet, because THAT would be FUCKED up. He's the one who is doubtful of my capabilities and he has bad assumption/ incorrect knowledge on Marijuana, and is ignorant that there are everyday people who can use Marijuana on a daily basis, as he says "You can't live off pot" and he started of in a slur saying such as "You need water to live, and shelter" and at that point it kind of put me over the edge. I believe one of my biggest issues is how vague I come out, and I try to explain in as much detail as possible, but it's always difficult to fully explain myself. I apologize if I led you guys into thinking otherwise :/ (or maybe you think I'm making excuses for being "a bad son and a total prick", but than the contradiction comes into play, as soon as I say that statement you're automatically going to assume its that way, but in reailty I just find it ironic as some would [b]ass[/b]u[/b]me[/b] that. My oh my, life is quite interesting.

taking a break is going to accomplish nothing especially with the whole "i want to prove to my dad" thing. Hes going to have the retarded attitude of "oh looks like he took a break to make some money to buy more weed, hurr derr." And its going to accomplish nothing. If you really give a shit about what that moron thinks of you and/or attitudes toward weed/drugs, than you could try taking a break for longer and prove you dont need a stupid bet as a motivator to stop smoking. To be honest, you are wasting your time, money, and weed with this bet if you are attempting to change his views. If he isnt going to listen to facts and what not then he definitely isnt going to be moved by this. I bet you anything that at the end of this bet he is going say, "hey you went all of this time without it, why do you need to keep doing it?" As dumb as that argument is, its gonna happen. You cant fix retards. To be honest, i wouldnt give a shit if i was accepted or respected by a moron like him.
I don't care to change his views... I wish I could.. But he's so annoying to talk to, I don't even wish to change his mind on any subject, just how he replys when he doesn't favor your side can be annoying :( I bet he will say that as well, and I've already come to the agreement that I won't change his mind. In my eyes, he's helping me out a lot more than he can imagine. I had been planning a break from New Years for 2 months [i]anyways[/i] and I had told my mom and him, because I wanted to get a job and I wanted to take a break because of how beneficial it is (you almost save more money in the long run, if you space it out like I do) and so they way I look at this "bet" is a chance for me to be clean by mid January at least, and to find a job before Feb 20 (that'll be 2 months after my bday and 2 months before 4/20) and than I will start smoking than, and I won't bring up the bet until than and than I will have all the money saved up from not buying shit, and it'll help me towards getting some shit I have wanted. To clarify on the "space it out" I mean when I do start up again, if I don't smoke everyday instantly, but slowly work up to that within 2 months than I'm saving a lot of money again.
[QUOTE=FreeHugs;33690525]My stepdad thinks that I am "addicted" to Marijuana, and there is "noway" I can last 2 months without smoking it. He constantly says "YOU CAN'T SOLELY LIVE OFF OF POT" and so he bet me that I couldn't take a 2 month break, so he said 50 dollars if I started today, and I told him "No, because I just bought more" (and he said I was "THAT" addicted because I couldn't) and than he doubled it to $100. It's ironic because he's going to be feeding my "addiction" come Feburary 12th, I'm going to buy a half oz and a eigth... He thinks he's clever by doing a "drug test on me every week" and he wanted to do it this week, because "I can if I wanted to" but I explained how that's horrible for my body, flushing it out is... and he continued to say that Marijuana was horrible for my body... Maybe i'll pick up spice for 2 months (;[/QUOTE] so you're going to stop smoking weed and smoke synthetic cannabinoids that are actually addictive and cause actual health problems, unlike weed? yeah. all for $100. great plan. maybe you should just skip to heroin instead
I just wouldn't smoke at all, then buy something else with the money or better yet, give it back. Or maybe say, you can have the $100 back if you watch The Union or something. Maybe he'd be a bit more understanding then.

ESPECIALLY if you're going to take the money. Be honest to both him and yourself, and then when/if you go back to smoking, you'll get much more baked!

Just take the bet, for your own self-worth prove that you can stop smoking. Just saying "Oh I could stop if I want to" isn't good enough. Actions speak louder than words, and you'll be proud of yourself if you can manage to do it. Besides once you start toking again, your tolerance will be down. I haven't smoked in over 25 days (probation test on the 20th; I get tested potentially once every three months) and I'll be toking within an hour after my test, but I'm proud of myself for having enough self-control to stop smoking to make sure I pass.

I've gone 6 months without getting high (And I don't know when I'll smoke again), I think you can last two months.
[QUOTE=Meader;33736628]It's a lot easier to quit something when you know you're not quitting for good...[/QUOTE] hmmm, thats an interesting thought. What if you get smokers to quit for lets say a month, then they can start again then take another month off. Eventually their tolerance will lessen and they wont smoke as much as before and eventually notice that they dont need it.

This is used to spread out the impact of withdrawals, thereby making them easier to cope with. In reality any technique will work, because it's not about the quality of the quitting technique but rather the determination and vigilance of the user. You have to want to quit more than you dislike the "pain" (physical and mental) associated with withdrawals. Weed is really easy to quit because the withdrawals are very mild. I find that when I'm not smoking I crave it, but don't NEED it. Same thing with cigarettes, except cigarettes are a bit more persistent. And most people DO know that they don't need it. Especially those who want to quit and were willing to take steps like this. I'm sort of taking the long way to say this (I feel I do this frequently, but fuck it, my excuse is I'm baked.) but I'm basically saying though that's an interesting technique I've never thought of before, but it sounds like a bursted way to cut down on smoking frequency. I've done this before and not smoked cigarettes for weeks or a month, and then started again. I started slow like I did when I first started smoking, but eventually just fell into the old habits and smoked a lot. Tolerance builds back up much quicker than it gets torn down, ESPECIALLY if you've already learned to tolerate a certain quantity. Sorry about that mind-dump lol.
You should make another thread in a couple of days about another problem that you face in your life. That would solve this issue.

Take some T3's and when they come up on your piss test start crying and explain to him the Weed was just a cover-up for your growing Heroin addiction and make a big emotional deal about it, then when he starts crying and shit tell him you were just fucking with him. Hah, yeah, that would show him...
