I have been a daily weed smoker for about 4 years and I love it! The problem is...I have been diagnosed with a mood disorder (cyclothymia), and now it (weed) has become an issue. The doctor's say that the weed is a form of self medication and that I need to stop of course! I am having a hard time but as I stated, I love it! Now when I smoke, I feel totally guilty and like I am doing something "bad" but I never felt like that before, and when I try to quite, or "cut-back" it is so hard. And to be honest I don't want to quit. I do think it wouldn't hurt to cut-back but...

My doc has prescribed me bupropion sr, but wouldn't I just be switching one drug for another? And what would happen if I took the bupropion and continued to smoke? Has anyone encountered a similar situation, and if so how are you handeling it?

Just looking for some advice, I guess.

So your doctor is stupid.

It sucks to have a mood disorder
