The amount of pot you're smoking tells me you use it to escape from something - feelings or home situations, whatever. I guess the first step to changing is asking yourself just what it is you are trying to escape. Go online and see if you can find online organizations or support groups to help you. They may be able to give you advice on how to take the steps to kick this. You can also make an appointment with your doctor and explain to him/her what you're dealing with. They have to keep everything you say private, so you don't need to worry about anyone else finding out. They can help you and even refer you to a counselor. You do have a problem. That means you have to do hard things to solve the problem. One hard thing is not buying anymore weed. Yes, you're brain will SCREAM at you to buy more, but while you're looking for help try to fill your time with other things. Music, friends, exercise..whatever you like. The busier you are, the less time you'll have to think about weed. But you do need help, so do your best to reach out around you. Its good that you know you have a problem. The mature thing to do now is to figure out how to solve it.

I could have criedwhen I read your question. Not because you're a 'pothead' or anything to do with that really, but because being so badly addicted to something that you have to keep some on you at all times is SO sad. I firmly believe that such addictions are life-wasting as everything is used up in pursuit of the object of addiction, whether it's gambling, sex, drugs, attention, whatever.
I know nothing about what effects this amount of drug wil have on your body and/or mind, but the fact that it is occupying your whole lifestyle means that you are missing so many other things that could be of true worth, playing with those children, for example instead of taking pot, reading them a story or playing board games.
How long it will take you to break this habit is difficult to assess, your whole life would have to change, friend and family relationships, how you soend your free time and with whom. It'll be a long hard road to get off those things, but surely worth it, to be able to look at life and know its real, not deformed by the veil of drugs over your mind. I sound like an old-time preacher, which I'm not. I do think unnecessary drugs are a waste of energy, time and effort.
I really hope this helps, although I think you already know it anyway, otherwise you wouldn't be asking for .....? Exactly what are you asking for?
Hope this helps, let me know how you get on? I'd rreally love to hear you were turning your life around to something worthwhile for your sake.
Take care of yourself and keep in touch?
