I used to be. Smoked everyday every night. It got to where I was even smoking it at work. 
Finally, the person who was giving it to me cut me off. That and being pregnant. I'm sure neither of these options are available for you.
Sorry.
Find something else to do.

Addiction sucks, This year I lost the woman I was going to have my children with to it. I'm also taking the steps to stop. I have ended the party's at my house and informed all my friends I'm trying to quit. It's been 7 days since my last drink and I feel so good physically. Mentally I'm a mess but that will slowly get better with time.
Good luck

Wow, sorry about the girl thing. Everything else though is pretty damn good. Giving up something like that is never easy on anyone. I'm proud of you.
In time the need for it will go away.

i pretty much did all the basic drugs, except for heroin and crack. never have i got addicted to anything, except for pot! i love opiates and benzos, but i dont do them too much. its just pot that got me.... i guess i should be happy. what sucks is my insomnia. i cant just ass out at night. even though it has nothing to do with pot, it makes it harder to not smoke

Stick to your guns, and watch just how smart and happy you get. Your body will balance itself out with the sleep thing.

Up to 9 months ago I had been drinking and druging for the past 36 years.Was starting to get bored with it but getting busted just put a stop to it.Better to do 5 years probation than 5 to 10 in a Texas State Prision.
