> For goodness sake. Just quit. I smoked for 10 years and when I got ready to quit, I quit. Just like with cigarettes. Why does everyone think they have to have "something" to make it easier to quit? I don't mean to sound bitchy, but if you really want to stop, you can do it on your own. Good luck.
It is not that easy for some. Even though the addiction is mainly a psychological one, that doesn't make it any easier. Many heroin addicts will tell you that dealing with psychological addiction is a life-long problem.
Many people who smoke marijuana are self-medicating. For some it is their "prozac". That "something" that people need to quit is totally legit.
I hope this changes your opionion.
