my bf smokes weed like theres no tomorrow but i dont mind because he never does it around me, but i care for him and im concerned about his health. he has tried giving up several times, but has never been successful. i notice he always forgets things and he has very slow reactions. can anyone give me tips on how to help him give up and are there anymore side effects i should be worried about? can it be fatal?
Answer:
let me just say this, weed isn’t addicting. there is absolutly nothing in weed that gets you physically dependant on it, the only way to get hooked on weed is from the psychological point of view by liking the effects and wanting more. second of all, weed should be legal, really…until you try it, people assume its really bad but once you try it you realise there’s nothing wrong with it and just makes you’ve fun. health wise…it really cant hurt you because its more healthy than a cigarette. slow reactions are probably because hes coming down from being high or is exhausted. I get like that sometimes after a night of smoking cause im so fatigued.
dont wory about it though, unless he gets into harder drugs that can be addicting.
Answer:
Ok first smoking pot is a mental addiction meaning its all in his head and he has the ability to quit at any time there is nothing harmful about quiting no side effects or anything to worry about either other than he might be an *** since he thinks he’s addicted to it… I know what you mean about the always forgetting things my bf used to do it to and quiting made him a better person he can actually think without being a total idiot.. but if he really wants to stop its really not hard maye tell him to hang out with people who don't do it ….
Answer:
there's no physical dependence to marijuana. none. so there's no withdrawal. and it certainly cannot be fatal. alcohol withdrawal can be fatal. there can be an emotional or psychological dependence, to a degree. It's hard to halt doing something you like just because someone wants you to. and it's hard to cease doing something you like, even though you know it's bad for you.
he'll give it up when and if he's ready. begging won't help him be ready, but it will produce empty promises that ultimately leave you broken hearted. and if you give an ultimatum, be very sure you're ready to follow through with that.
Answer:
Its harmless.the memory loss and slow reactions are side effects of smoking it regularly in massive quantity ,if he stopped smoking they would go away in a week or so.
Sorry i don't know how to make him stop,its all up to him,if he really wants to quit it should be no prob at all.
Answer:
No, it's not fatal at all…. Yes it can dumb you down a bit, but overall, compared to other drugs (heroin, meth, coke) it's pretty harmless…
Most people grow up and stop smoking it daily at around 30…
Answer:
Try to spend more time with him and also talk to him about it. say that you don't care about it and say its not kool to smoke. It only kills but nothing else.
Answer:
if you really want to help give him something else to do like get in a better relationship until you move in to his home and then hell probly stop or

Answer:
