Quit Smoking Grass Today - Why Marijuana is Harmful and How You Should Stop It


Are you addicted to weed and grass and you want to quit the habit? Though not an easy task but, it is not impossible. Sometimes it happens that you have a dual mind and one part is ready to quit and the other does not. The decision needs to be taken by you and only you will have to take the final call.

According to a recent survey more than 39% of youths aged between 12 to 17 years have tried the puff at least once out of curiosity. The drug is often called by different names. Sometimes we call it Ganja, some times Mary Jane or grass and few of us call it weed or pot. The thing is one and the same. It is a shredded mixture of dried leaves and flowers of Cannabis Sativa plant which is hand rolled like cigarettes or sometimes used in bongs or pipes. The addiction is deadly in terms of your health because it causes lung cancer.

People often ask the question - is smoking marijuana more harmful or smoking cigarettes?

The answer is simple - Both have equally hazardous effects. The only difference is that they affect different parts and functions of a normal body. Cigarette smoking causes lung cancer, addiction of nicotine, deposition of tar, etc. Weed smoking deposits thrice as much tar on the lungs as a cigarette, causes several short term side effects which can translate to long term effects such as memory loss, insensitiveness, etc.

These are some of things that you can do to stop smoking pot effectively. Other than these, you can always think up of new ideas in case you fall short. In many cases, smokers develop specific plans to suit their unique life and needs. For example, a woman who smokes only under depressions watches movies which make her laugh, keeps reading jokes, attends laughter club and never fights with anyone. As a result of this, she has managed to cut back on her smoking almost completely.

If you are determined to quit the habit then I will suggest you few basic tips of quitting grass and weed-


Do not listen to Psychedelic or hard rock music or any music which relates to Marijuana.
Try to avoid the company of friends and colleagues who smoke grass.
Never watch movies or shows something about grass, it may be a good movie but still refrain from watching it.
Try watching educational and news channels. A serious mind is a fruitful mind, an empty one is a devil's workshop.
Throw away any ashtrays around the house. All matches and lighters also go away. Put up no smoking signs all over the place. If you do not smoke, ensure that no one around you smokes.
Throw away all your accessories which can remind you about the pot.

Eventually, you will have to come up with your own tailor made ideas to suit your needs. No two smokers quit in the same way so you will have to think and brainstorm and decide, most importantly, that you have to quit smoking pot and marijuana today.

The Harmful Effects of Smoking Marijuana - The Simple Truth


IT IS ILLEGAL!

While some states now have allowed smoking marijuana when medically prescribed such as for those suffering from aids or cancer, it is illegal. Most states have no such law and while there is definite evidence that medical marijuana may have its benefits, smoking it illegally for non-medical reasons is never a good idea. Some states have laws where for the most part it is a misdemeanor for having possession of a small amount of weed, however depending on how much you have on your possession, you could be charged with intent to sell, AND if you were to be busted within a certain number of feet from a school, the charges become much more serious.

IT COULD COST YOU YOUR JOB

Many employers can and do conduct random drug tests. In most cases it is written somewhere that using illegal substances is grounds for termination and therefore you very well might be risking your job every time you decide to smoke pot. Also, almost ALL employers these days do a drug screening prior to hiring someone. With the state of the job market and the economy is it really worth it to get high?
