Can I Use Physical Pain to Help Me With My Marijuana Addiction? Classical Conditioning?

Question by : can i use physical pain to help me with my marijuana addiction? classical conditioning?
so im psychologically addicted to weed. if i were to look at a picture of weed, and then slap myself in the face a couple of times, shouldn’t this eventually make marijuana less psychologically appealing to me assuming i do this regularly (at first)? this is known as classical conditioning (when a stimulus is paired with a response or something) and its been used to manipulate behavior.
i know slapping myself sounds stupid but in theory i think it should work. oh and i dont wanna quit, i just wanna be able to develop enough self-control to use it moderately.

Sure, do the slap face thing, then let us know if its working for you. Take up drinking – at least its legal.
