- It’s easy to smoke weed and get on with your day- I know I did, especially during the first 20 years that I smoked- I didn’t think I had a problem with weed. I thought I could just smoke less or stop smoking anytime I wanted. But I never wanted to stop. Why?- Everything was better when I was high. Or so I thought- And when I tried quitting about five years ago, I would just cave in and smoke some weed. And just say that I will stop tomorrow or next week- I would convince myself that I didn’t have a problem with weed. That weed was not making my life worse. And all the things I want to do with my life can start tomorrow or next week- But that was not true. I had to admit that I had a problem with weed. I was addicted to weed- It wasn’t until I admitted to myself that I had a problem, that I could finally quit
