There are many free resources available if you’re looking to quit weed or manage your cannabis use disorder.
r/leaves is a supportive recovery community dedicated to practical discussions about quitting pot, weed, cannabis, edibles, BHO, shatter, Delta 8, or any THC-related product. It’s a great place to seek support in staying stopped.

Marijuana Anonymous is a free peer-support program specifically designed for those struggling with marijuana or cannabis addiction. It follows the 12 Steps model established by Alcoholics Anonymous, which has been shown to be effective in promoting recovery.
Marijuana Anonymous offers daily meetings, both online and in person. It also provides a wealth of helpful resources to support you on your recovery journey.
For many of us, the initial reason for using weed was to cope with trauma and stress. Therapy can be expensive, so it’s tempting to turn to cannabis as a way to escape. This IFS Buddy chatbot virtual therapist is designed to guide you through a solo Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy session, which is a form of psychotherapy that sees the mind as made up of various subpersonalities or “parts.”
If you’re feeling stressed right now, take a moment to chat with the virtual therapist—no registration required.
4. Working Out
Exercise helps reduce stress and anxiety, boosts mood through the release of endorphins, and can distract from cravings. It also promotes a healthier lifestyle overall, which can support recovery. Incorporating regular physical activity can improve both physical and mental well-being as you work toward reducing or quitting cannabis use.
5. Hot Bath
Warm baths can promote relaxation, reduce stress, and alleviate anxiety, which might be especially beneficial during withdrawal or cravings. The calming effects can help create a soothing environment that supports your overall well-being. Many people also find that warm baths help relieve withdrawal-related cramps. Plus, it’s a great way to practice self-care during your recovery journey.
