Can anyone help with giving up weed? I am currently 8 weeks pregnant and have a good job, don’t drink or smoke cigarettes but rely on weed to calm myself, there is help out there to give up drinking and smoking but not to give up weed.
Any help appreciated (I have very little will power)

Pray! & ask the only one who can 🙏🏽
Go to your doctor and ask for resources. I’m sure there are online support groups. Well done on asking for help it’s the first step 🙏🏻
Best to do it now as if continue now and when baby is born it will stuffer withdrawal symptoms which isnt nice for a baby to go though
Think of how you feel without it… How can you do that to your baby? They will feel the feelings just like you do. Do you want to potentially harm the precious little soul? This is the mind set you need to have. I get it’s addiction and it’s hard but nothing should come in the way of a mama trying to protect her baby and it starts now. Think of all that money you can save to buy gorgeous baby the things they need, good luck!
Gabapentin is fda approved to help with withdrawals from it …they just ain’t allowed to tell people is what I was told bk in 2018
You can get drinks called Trip that you may be able to have but check the ingredients as unsure if you can have them during pregnancy.
My partner smoked weed for absolute years got hooked at a young age. He tried a few times to cut down or stop but after few weeks would then go back. Last year he again stopped cold turkey and hasn’t smoked it in over a year now. He found things to replace it with. He builds lego models or does small projects to help him. Most importantly he did it for himself. Yes he admitted it was very hard but focused on something else. Good luck and just take each day as it comes
You can do it, 1st night is the worst night have a bit faith in yourself you have got to do it for this baby
Going cold turkey is the only option, and to keep you going just keep thinking about your lovely wee baby and how much you want to better yourself for the wee one. It’s not going to be easy but it’s amazing what a mother’s love will sacrifice for your own child. Good luck x
When I gave up I smoked abit of blue lotus flowers to take the edge off. I wasn’t pregnant tho. Keep busy. It’s mind over matter you got this mumma
