- Quitting weed now is harder than ever- It is legal recreationally or medically in a lot of places- There are dispensaries everywhere with a wide selection- The stigma of smoking weed is less. In the past stoners had a bad stigma, not anymore- All of this makes it hard to quit weed if you want to quit- But it's doable. I've been smoking weed for over 25 years and I was able to quit- It wasn't easy and I failed countless times trying to quit- But eventually my mind and body were ready to quit weed
