Q: marijuana abuse
asked by: harmony1 on March 5th, 2009

I just wondered if there are any women out there in relationships with guys/girls that are addicted too marijuana.
If you are i think it could help a little if we talk about it.
My partner does smoke marijuana & is sooo snappy. Any one else experiencing this??
Do you think it's just the mull or is this some other sort of mental disorders??
I tell ya, my guys attitude just gives me the s***s! I hardly talk to him because he's just a prick. Then when i see him drunk he's a sweetheart. go figure. lol.
I guess if you are a smoker and also have this problem of taking it out on people. can you try and explian to me what is going on in your head. just so i can understand it a little better.

Thnaks for anybodys input. it's much appreciated.
awh,*sigh* this has been theraputic for me.. SmileSmile

marijuana abuse
I used to use marijuana allot and I still do from time to time with friends but its no longer a addiction for me so Ive been around allot of different kinds of people that smoke and most are clam relaxed and happy, others act the same as they do normally since there tolerance is high and they don't get much from it. So I think he could like being high so much he just wants to be alone and relax or it could just be his normal personality.

yeah i can't really figure out which one it is. maybe a bit of both. although my ex was very snappy too. maybe it's the testosterone in men??
thanks for your input.

it takes two weeks for it to be out of your system so then that means you only have four days to go! SmileSmile

My ex was addicted to it. Usually he wouldnt go a day without it unless need be. I dreaded the days when that happened. He was a DICK! I feel a little impatient and a little stressed feeling when I go without it, but I never had an anger problem. It makes me more giggly and happy. Sometimes just relaxed and laid back. Its why I love it so much.

all the things you have said harmony sound complete opposite of what i have seen in my life... unless your smoking spliffs there is no harsh addiction to marijuana it is an abnormal drug that just calms you down or can also make you tired/relaxed it is most likely his normal actions if you havent been dating him long they usually say you dont really get to know someone until you have spent a few years to see the downsides of their personality.

most people just dont like to talk when they're high. I smoked everyday multiple times a day throughout college. I have been clean for ten months and I havent had the urge to go back to it. The only way to quit is to just not be around it sometimes. When you havent smoked you do get a little edgy sometimes but no biggy; usually goes away in a week as i hear its all out of your system in 30 days if your a regular user.

Yeah I used to smoke myself, some time back. I don't think I was ever snappy with my bf but I'll admit i was with her. I didn't want her to bother me and stuff but HE is so aggressive. I guess it's a possibility that it's not the mull and maybe that he needs anger management. what would you call someone that has an aggressive nature? Is there a name for it.
Thanks all you guys for all your input. it has helped me try to annalise this situation better speaking from many point of views.

snappy
Funny how my ex used to smoke daily and he was so unmotivated and snappy, hated it, left him!

Now, when my husband smoked he was in a very good mood and very relaxed (when things are going good in his life - work etc, esp work bc men always want to provide) but when things were bad in his life - he was the moodiest of them all! Now that all is good in his life, he has been off for a week and has been snappy before bedtime, during the day he keeps himself busy - I think he went shopping like a girl lol! But I know he is on the road to recovery. We have met new ppl in our life and not exposed to it anymore and family is visiting and he is excited to work out again. I just have to be patient with his "getting off of it" days.
Harmony, I think when women smoke, it gives them a different affect than men.

Maybe you are living with a passive aggressive man? I actually had to read that book! Can you believe that? It was a good book and it helped me alot. Look it up. Let me know what you think and I can help you out bc I live with a Taurus/Gemini/ dragon lol what a mood! you can also personal msg me.

Soryy hun, i thought your husband still smoked when i sent you a pm.
Hmm advice for when he's irratable while he's quitting..
I would say be extra nice. Try not to bother him but be there for him when he needs you. just for a little while. Apparently it takes two weeks for marijuana to get out of your system but i say a month and then you've really conquered it.
Best of luck to you. I'm so happy for you!!
hmm Passive aggresive man. i'm going to look that up. Cheers hun.
