Have to stop break..?

    I have a problem here.
    A week ago I started a break from cannabis, that should last a month.
    But as of this soon I'm already starting to feel the need to stop this break, mostly due to insomnia.

    I use cannabis for recreational as well as medical purposes.
    I treat my depression, ADD and problems with sleeping patterns with cannabis.

    This break I'm having is nothing about tolerance, it's about proving my girlfriend and myself
    that I am not addicted and that it's not hard to be without MJ.

    What should I really do? 1/4 of the break is done and I'm already going crazy!!
    Should I just cut it into two weeks and explain my girlfriend that I need sleep?
    Or?

    Who cares what you can prove to your girlfriend. I use weed for my insomnia too man. It sucks not sleeping for days, just puff that shit, that's what I would do. But if you really care about proving dumb shit to your girlfriend then keep going sober.

    Feeding the monkey and treating symptoms are two very different things my friend.

    I bet if we were talking adderall your girlfriend wouldn't be saying a damn thing.

    Also sleep deprivation is infinitely more dangerous than having a mild (likely blown out of proportion) cannabis addiction.

    Stopping abruptly if you've been using it as medicine is not very wise. If you have to prove anything to your girlfriend you might want to reexamine the relationship.

    I know what you mean about proving the point,i mean i quit smoking cigarettes because every one told me that i couldn't ,that said you need to sleep to have a functioning life and if mj is the thing that achieves that then i think you need to decide whats important, you life or proving a point, but thats just my opinion man do what you thinks right but surely you girlfriend will understand i mean she would notice that you not the same.

    Listen man if she really cares about you, she should understand if you just explain to her that you're not just some burnt out stoner that's addicted to cannabis, the herb is your personal form of medication and if she wants you to stay healthy she'll understand. If she doesn't, well just be glad she's not your wife or anything too permanent yet..;);)

    Thanks guys. I'll definitely tell her I have to stop the break.
    It's my medication, which she doesn't quite yet understand.
