    After your video a few months ago when you talked about quitting weed, I started wondering if I should do the same. Then when I watched your 6 month update video I finally decided to quit for good. Now I'm almost 2 weeks in to sobriety and I know it's going to be one of the best decisions I've made, as hard as it is. Thank you.

      Dude just remember : taking shrooms is not sobriety. Especially microdosing psychedelics which is dumb as shit. Instead of getting a full blown psy jolt you're literally getting addicted to low dose insanity. I kicked the everyday habit of weed and I smoke once every 2-3 weeks. And get seriously monged and enjoy it, then I go back to my life on high energy. This guy's a total mess, just look at his fail record. He has no idea what he's doing so don't listen to a single thing he says.

    Yeah so I’m not sure how you popped up on my feed, but you’re literally my psychological twin. I’m only 2 weeks in but still going strong. Great content!

    Super well spoken guy watched your video on quitting weed this morning and I feel like every thing you said was 100% accurate to what I am experiencing now when quitting. This channel is great and gonna keep watching to keep a good mindset for sobriety. I really appreciate channels like this that share advice and truly help viewers. Keep it up!

    Your videos are INDEED helpful. I am on day 6 of no weed after too many years of enjoying it..
    I really mean it. You’ve helped. I left you a comment on your video (about what you’ve noticed after 6 months of clarity) saying how I was pacing the cage..and it was my comment to you that constantly reminded me of the shame I would feel towards myself if I had written a b.s. comment.
    I am clinging on but with more strength!!
    Thx for sharing(:

    I really dislike my current job. I really dislike the city I have been living in for the past 4 years. I keep studying but it doesn't seem to be getting anywhere. It feels like I'm just waiting around "to start my life" but, in actuality I'm just waiting to die. My wife doesn't want to move and doesn't understand where I'm coming from. Mentally, I am looking back on times that were better, which isn't good, but it was the last time I was satisfied with most things in life. It's hard to focus on the future, but I'm forcing myself to keep learning and hoping one day it'll pay off.

  • @21elladara

    Thank you so much for talking about all these stuff, im in a kind of the shame path as you , finding my way in life , trying to communicate what i've learned from experience not as an expert but just from my humble experience . Sharing online helped me introspect in a different angle and the feedback was unexpected to be honest ,people really seek knowledge and adapt it when its been repeated enough , one of the most critical skills humans evolved and got so far is communication and when you know about stuff like that it feels like responsibility
    Your way is so genuine , i'll stick around

    Hey, man, I can relate to you a lot. I'm 31 with similar struggles. One week ago I took mushrooms, and yesterday I finished my second dose. You have given me encouragement, and I realized I'm ready to go over 4g. Enjoy Cambodia, it's a nice place to live. I'll be back there next month.

    when I was like 16 I smoked weed and it gave me hell of anxiety. Ive never liked it that much because of that. Around this time I told people that as well and they would say: "oh you get anxiety from weed? dont do shrooms then!" I never have because of what they said until a couple weeks ago (I'm 35 now). I took 2 grams for my first trip. it was the absolute most mind blowing best thing ive ever done drug wise. IT WAS AMAZING! SOOOO MUCH BETTER THAN WEED!!! I had very little anxiety the entire trip I felt amazing and the visuals were really cool. Just wish I knew when I was younger how good they are. seriously if you offered me booze, cocaine, weed, painkillers, or shrooms i'm hands down going to choose shrooms every time. there's no hangover you kind of feel drunk, but its better than alcohol the body high is out of this world good. I want to do it again soon

  • @gabrielleg.1347

    I totally get everything your saying, especially the need to follow your passion and your truth! Way to go man. Your super brave to have done heroic journeys with mushrooms....I hope to do that one day. Curious, did you have a "trip sitter", guide, or work with an integrative psychedlic therapist? I know thats a thing in OR and mushrooms are legal there which is amazing! Love hearing about your journey. Thanks for sharing and inspiring others!

  • @psychedelictacos9118
    @psychedelictacos9118 Před 2 dny

    Just picked a shit load of shrooms, will probably do a trip soon but not too high because of the mental state I'm in at the moment, I've done a few heroic doses in the past but I'm not sure that I can handle them at this point in time, just got back from overseas a couple of months ago in South East Asia which was awesome but have been feeling really down because when I got off the plane I was told my dad was diagnosed with terminal cancer and am now feeling pretty man childish being unemployed at 32 years old living out in the country with my parents trying to piece together my portfolio to apply for web development jobs! I know during the trip, especially on high doses, I will be challenged with whats going on right now and my life situation and how confronting that can be, even though it's ultimately a good thing over all!

      How did you know what to start with when you started out? Can you explain the dosage and time(s) of day you are taking this now? Also what form are you taking? (eg: dried, pill, etc) Did you have someone to help you start out?

    • @GomezRsf
      @GomezRsf Před 2 měsíci

      My therapist recommended it. My mum past away I was in deep depression plus its brilliant with all kind off addiction. Stop smoking weed after 20 years almost immediately.You can buy grow kit online. Everyday 0.03g you can find everything on CZcams how to do it.

    I'm no expert.. it just seems like you went from one drug to another.. so for me as nice as this may sound just sounds.. doesn't sound like good advice. If anything I think talking about your experience in a way is therapeutic. So ill give you that and i hope you find what you are looking for and you'll be completely free of substance.. i did enjoy your video about how you cut out weed.

      @brandon2932 Před 2 měsíci +2

      Totally agree. I wrote the same comment a couple years ago on a video of his, not sure if he saw it. I still come to his channel to see how he’s doing. He reminds me a lot of how I used to be. I’m Dorians age and going to Christ freed me from my chronic depression and anxiety that plagued me nearly all my life. Before I also was relying on weed and mushrooms etc to make me feel better but all it was was just a mask. Deep down inside I was still lost, but am no longer.

      What's vastly more pathetic is to put someone down who is willing to be open about their struggle and what helped them get out of it. Ever consider that this video might actually reach out and get someone to improve themselves?
      I hope you take some time to reflect that you're just putting out negative energy, which helps absolutely no one and what causes people to become a mess in the first place.

    Sobriety... shrooms... Ok just looking at the titles of your videos alone you're like a South Park parody of a midlife crisis. It gets even more South Park watching through some of your brainlet takes on life. But don't stop now bro, keep spending and failing and moving and rethinking and entertaining me a lot.
