Hi, I'm 19. I've been smoking marijuana since I was 14 and daily since I was about 16. The other week I was at a party and realized after smoking for some time that I still couldn't get high. Not only that but I realized the last few times I had smoked I felt similar, just really crappy, like all of the bad things about smoking without any of the good, honestly. I decided it would probably be worth quitting at that point, but I didn't realize how tough it would be. Also, I had been smoking multiple times daily since I had major surgery and had become somewhat of a slug.
It's been about 2 weeks since I stopped and I feel horrible. I'm constantly bored, uninterested/apathetic, and almost never hungry. I have been force-feeding myself at meals. I used to be extremely hungry all the time and I'm worried I am dropping weight. I literally don't want to do anything, but doing nothing is even worse. All of this falls back on my surgery and my inability to work or do anything physical all summer since I came back from college.
On top of that, my social life has collapsed. I realized that people only liked me for the product I had on me. But now, my social pool has shrunk to a ridiculously small level. I'm very disappointed to say the least, not only in myself, but also in those who I regarded as my friends, because we had nothing in common except that we had been totally baked together all through high school. Even the things I take pleasure in, such as my instrument, as I am an instrumental major at college, seem to be boring and like a chore to me right now. If anyone has gone through similar problems, I would like to hear how you have dealt with them. Thanks a boatload.

Hello there. I'm 28 years old, and have been a smoker on and off since I was 13 years old. I've experienced this in my younger years...let me tell you about some of my experience with it.
First off I would address the feeling of boredom and "blahness"... This feeling won't last forever, it's normal for you to feel like this as your brain has to re-learn to produce the chemicals that it hasn't needed to produce during the use. I've also become a big proponent of vitamin and mineral supplements lately...there are studies in the 1940's about high dosages of Niacin to reduce depression, anxiety, and all sorts of brain dysfunctions. I would also triple-up on vitamin C and other important minerals. The run-of-the-mill multi-vitamin sucks, honestly, and I believe purposely. Look for vitamin & mineral & plant extract drink mixes so your body doesn't have to break down the pill and convert that into what it needs....make it easy on yourself.
Also, I would like to speak to amount of usage. As a teenager, I was an avid smoker--i mean i stayed high! :) The key word here is moderation, as with anything else. Don't let it, or anything for that matter, rule your life. Hell, drinking a 6-pack of coke (or anything really) a day will affect the way you feel and think now-a-days because of all of the damn chemicals and additives in it. Marijuana is no exception, we respond mentally and physiologically to what we put in our bodies....we are what we eat so to speak :)
I hope something in my reply helps, if not, God Bless and i'll remember you in my prayers.
