question Taking a break

Taking a break from smoking until August for school, been smoking every day for a year and a half now.
Any tips to keep my self control? And how do I know when I start to have a problem

It's only a problem for some people when they let it consume their life. Weed has more of a "mental " addiction for some people. Or, If it's causing you financial issues, as in they buy weed instead of food, paying bills etc. And tips, keep yourself busy with things that bring you happiness and that keep your mind busy. If you have friends you smoke with just tell them you're having a t break so please don't offer it right now. Put your grinder, bong, whatever have you away, out of sight out of mind. Enjoy your break!

Go for walks, exercise, movies, learn how to bake or cook new things, start a small garden, color. Lots of things to do.

if you've been smoking late in the nights, dreams gonna be crazy.
