adice for quitting/decreasing marijuana use

My marijuana use is through the roof, i know many dont see it as an addictive drug and many find it easy to quit but m use is out of control.
Im 20 years old and started @ 14, in the last six years i have spent about 5 days in those six years without smoking,not continuously these days were spread apart
I am in the position to smoke freely(money is not a problem, neither is a place to smoke) and it seems i can not stop, it consumes my mind im smoking about 4-8 grams a day and cant imagine not smokeing pot
I just want to get my mind clear and remember what sobriety is like but i cant seem to get my ass of the couch and not smoke(as simple as it seems and pathetic as it sounds)
I know many of u will disagree with me but anyone who knows how i feel your advice was be very appreiated

If your in a position to smoke freely, then the only way would probably be to remove yourself from that position. Unless your willpower is strong enough, which it's not, or you wouldn't be asking for advice.

well, i always did 2 things. I love the ganja and am the same way. lol what i would do is take tolerance breaks. BUT, i absolutley hate these so set out your weed the day before and and only smoke what u set out. u have to take control of it:) and slowly decrease over a week or so then go on a week tolerance break. trust me, when u get back on, u get stoned sooo much faster. haha and i know you said money wasnt a problem but maybe you should get a vape:)if u dont have one already of course. i would definately look into getting the magic flight launch box. i bought one a couple months back and its amazing. i used to smoke atleast an 8th every 2 days, and now its an 8th every 7-10 days. and they high is so clean. especially with a nice sativa

I just took a break last week but now I'm all "fuck that".
I don't know bro, I smoke daily. Mids, not heads, certainly not california heads, and I only smoke 2-4 grams a day or so, so my habit is a bit less than yours but I just quit.
I was vaping one day and then stopped at midnight and didn't for a week (well, 5 daysish).
I found I had no appetite for 2 days, maybe a day and a half or so and time went by way more quickly than I thought it would. I didn't have any impetus to exercise at ALL and pretty much just read (something I never do) and played video games for the week.
I found it a lot easier to get motivated to clean the house or do menial work like dishes, laundry, catbox, whatever. Instead of just trying to get it done I wanted to find some way to get rid of the time. Wound up sweeping and mopping and cleaning my bathroom and a bunch of other shit.
Just take a break man, cold turkey. The last day or two I took to using kanna by clodding it in my lower lip and sucking the juice. Having an herbal to help can definitely be nice but don't trade one habit for another.
After that break I definitely don't want to smoke every day any more. It's such a waste man, it isn't even fun it just becomes routine.
And then there's smoking at 5 or 6 or 7 in the evening after being up and smoking all day and not even getting high from smoking weed, having to wait until tomorrow morning's wake and bake to even feel high again.
It's just lame bro. We both know it.

try meditating, take a class on meditation, many classes show that your brain waves are similar on THC as when you are meditating.
i personally have a respiratory issue so smoking has always been hard for me, but as i picked up meditation, i realized how much THC fucks with my focus and concentration.
the tantric bliss i receive from meditation is way better than getting high, i also feel clear headed, especially around other human beings.
my smoking (er vaping) has reduced to 1-7 times a week, *1-3 days a week*

Try only smoking at night? You want it more after a day of stupid sobriety. When I did this my irritation actually made me more productive and I did everything I needed to just so the time before smoking time would go by faster. I just 'quit' a week ago and today was the first day it really bothered me not having it. I've been taking diphenhydramine at night or I wouldn't sleep t all though. If cost isn't an issue just buy the same amount of bud but save it all and then smoke twice as much the next week and get way higher.
