Marijuana ruined my life and I am living proof that it is mentally addictive. I have been through so much sh-t because of it I, don't even know where to start. I started smoking when I was 16 years old because all of my friends did, also my best friend, which was my sister, my step dad, and my boyfriend all smoked. I am now 24 years old and I still have the same pot-head boyfriend. I thank god I kicked the habit after we had our second daughter. He is still struggling to completely quit. I say completely because he has cut down the use a lot, but I still smell it in our bathroom every now and then. He has the same problems I had with it. You can't sleep without it, you have no appetite without it, you have no motivation without it.
When I was out of money and a bag, I didn't even want to get out of bed. The only reason I did was to find a way to get a joint. I was not happy unless I was stoned. I felt incomplete. At one point, we were 5 months behind on our rent, didn't have sh-it, always late on the bills that were a necessity, which was rent, car, and electric. We went for years without a phone or cable. Sadly, we could have had it and a lot more if we wouldn't have spent so much on weed.
I started skipping school so I could stay high all day . When I did go to school, we smoked it outside at lunch time. After I dropped out of school, I got pregnant and still couldn't completely quit. After I had the baby, it went back to the same old thing. I was smoking from the crack of dawn until I hit the hay.
I could go on and on with weed stories, but my point is that it is addictive. An addict is an addict whether it is marijuana or another drug of choice. My life is forever scarred from it now. I kept a 4.0 grade average and wanted to go to college to be a nurse, but now I have got to wait until the time is right and work to make a decent living for my children. I have thought about smoking it once in a while because there is no greater feeling, but I know I can't because I am an addict and I would never chance living like that again. I never want to sink so low again that I choose to buy a joint instead of toilet paper and something to eat. The feeling was just too good to me not to feel that way all the time. That is when you need to quit.
I hit rock-bottom during my second pregnancy, and knew if I wanted my children to have a normal life, it had to stop and it did! I was determined! I moved out of state, moved in my dad's house where pot was forbidden. I knew if I screwed up and did it there he would put me in a rehab and take my daughters away from me. I also leaned to god a lot. I now have a normal life, a nice apartment, a brand new car, bills paid on time, and pretty much can manage to get whatever I want! I hope I have inspired somebody out there to quit no matter what it takes.
