Nigerian rapper Yung6ix has made a public plea for support in his battle to quit smoking marijuana, revealing that he has used the substance for 21 years and is now experiencing physical intolerance.
In a post on his X (formerly Twitter) handle, Yung6ix admitted that while he’s trying to stop, the process has been challenging.
He disclosed that he has already reduced his monthly spending on weed to $600 and is working toward cutting it down to zero.
“Coming out today to tell everyone I need help. I’ve been smoking for 21 years now, and my body is telling me to stop. I’m trying, but it’s not easy. I’ve reduced how much I spend buying weed to $600 a month, and I need help to turn that to $0. Any help?” he wrote.
In response, fellow rapper Phenom shared his personal journey of quitting smoking a decade ago with the assistance of medical professionals.
