LEAVING MARY JANE RELATIONSHIPS

  • Change your habits. If you hang around with friends who smoke weed, find other people to do things with who aren’t using it.
  • Build yourself up nutritionally. This will help with the withdrawal symptoms. Drugs rob the body of vitamins and minerals, particularly B complex, vitamin C and calcium and magnesium
