Hello, a 20-year-old boy writes to you. I first tried weed when I was 15-16, but I started smoking seriously when I was 17. By serious, I mean that I have rarely smoked for more than 2-3 days. I graduated from a language school where a lot of weed was smoked. From the morning we gathered 5-10 people and got drunk on the chat, then the big break, then after the teacher. It was fun ... when you see so many nerds around you, you start to take it for granted. During the holidays I went too far. I got up in the morning, took a shower, ate something and immediately went out to get drunk with my friends (until the evening, great tables and beers). I also often bought grass for home. I really enjoyed smoking on my own, because that's how I relaxed the best, I was left alone with my thoughts, I played good music, I watched movies, I read books intoxicated, everything looked more interesting, the food was tastier, who will understand me ... it's cool, but at one time I got tired of smoking alone and I started to do it rarely, and the feeling emptying the fridge for one night is not the most pleasant: D The grass has never bothered me so much to study. I took my graduation exams with 5 and 6, I was accepted to university at first sight, but I began to realize that I had changed a lot and became a different person ... before I was cheerful, energetic, people around me were always happy because I always I found something to entertain them with, but not now ... I became super boring, somewhat antisocial, and before I was very sociable, I was constantly meeting new people, I had boyfriends, every day was different from the previous one, and now what? I go out with the same people, we do the same thing every day - cycling on benches, cars or apartments. If I stop the grass, more or less, I will return to my old way of life, I will be fresher, I will not be such an uncommunicative move. I will start to be less lazy and more productive. I'm sure of it because I haven't smoked in a week and I immediately started to feel the change - I laugh more often, I have new ideas, I go out with friends I haven't seen in a long time. I had forgotten what it was like to just go for a coffee or a walk without getting drunk. In addition, my passion for a hobby I had years ago began to return. Everything looks very nice, but the truth is that at times I feel very depressed because I want to get very drunk. I know that the addiction to weed is only mental, but even that is enough ... I can no longer imagine going to the mountains with friends, for example, sitting on a nice meadow and just talking without squeezing a bag. The feeling of watching the mountains and admiring the beauty of our homeland when you are intoxicated is unique! I will miss this very much ... and not only that, I am used to associating every good thing with smoking weed :( I would be happy if someone who smoked for a long time and then stopped, tells me how long I will need it until the moment comes when I will stop taking the herb in this way and think about it constantly? I guess it's up to the person, but how long does this abstinence (if I may call it that) last? The grass is not just an herb and for some people it is very difficult to stop. What would you advise me? How can I survive without it? I don't want to stop for the rest of my life, but I don't want my youth to be surrounded by monotony, so I plan not to smoke, at least for the near future. I also think that I don't need to look for new friends, this is for people who are on heavier drugs ... and nowadays it is rare to find someone who doesn't smoke.

You have started to think well, grass is an herb only in a medical setting. And how many people smoke it in one? . They smoke it for fun and escape from the gray and stressful everyday life. Do you know what weed and alcohol have in common? Both have a bad effect on the brain. He doesn't smoke at all and finds a hobby.
