Someday soon can be today, if you want it to be. I can really feel your pain and desparation in your post. Recognizaing your pot addiction doesn't make less worthy addict, or less worthy of asking for and getting help.

Addiction in NA doesn't have to do with the type of drug you use or how much you use of it. Any substance that changes the way you feel, is considered a drug in NA and if you want to stop being a slave to your drug and stop using you can be a memeber. That's all.

I got to a point where I needed to stop thinking of what others would say and think about me (weak, useless) and I needed to think about myself. The shame I felt was a big obstacle in me getting help. But I didn't want to be dead or dead while alive anymore. So I got myself some help, not tomorrow but today.

I wish you the best.
