One of the best parts of quitting for a super long time (6 months+) is getting the butterflies in your stomach again when you get excited or happy about something. Weed diminishes this.
Starting day 2 today. Last night was so rough. I had no idea how strong cannabis withdrawal can be, and how addicted I truly was. It started to become apparent recently as I have been smoking dabs and more concentrated THC. So sick of being a slave to this drug, I’m ready to change. Utilizing your content right now, it’s so helpful. Thank you. ❤
Me to. I'm done being a slave to weed. Hope you're doing better.
I never looked at it like being a slave until recently, it's good to know that I am not alone with that @@GodisGracious1
Well I relapsed when a good friend died recently. I also relapsed alcohol. Got myself a nice little DUI and hit my rock bottom. I finally surrendered to my addiction. I am currently on day 2 again. Withdrawals last night, couldn’t sleep, sweating, weird dreams, body aches.
@@TheSpiritualGenieu got this bro 🫶 really struggling with the depression and insomnia rn only on day 4 smh. Feels like u really stop and realize all the problems in life.
I know the feeling day bye day it gets easier I believe you can quit weed for good
I’m 17 days clean from THC
Congratulations brother
I'm day 16 🎉🙏
Yes!!
Look at that!
Good luck, best wishes! 21. day for me!
@@Lentreeo same here 😍
I’m 8 days sober of smoking weed. Had no plans to quit but now I’m watching these videos getting inspired!
If you're on day 8 without having planned to quit, we're not the same 😂
Hang in on day 15.
The pain is healing. Just remember you are not dying. You can do this.
I’m sleeping again. Anxiety has stopped. I feel goood. Walk a lot. Deep breathing helps. CBD oil is a big help
Thank you for this video. 2 weeks sober from smoking weed for over 10 years
smoking while i watch this, but I want to quit so bad.
In fact, the best time to learn about how to deal with depression after you've quit smoking weed is to learn all the information whilst you're actually smoking the weed. Sounds counter-intuitive but it works.
Im still addicted, looking to quit before my 21st bday in a couple weeks, you can do it just set yourself a time and see it through even if its 3 days just get through those 3 days, even then it’s an accomplishment
You can do it bro, I’m 13 days clean today after years of smoking daily and I feel so much better
The first few days feel impossible but if you fight through them it gets better
Same smoking a 2 gram fatty with oil/kief being like I'll quit tomorrow
You can absolutely do it, never thought I'd make it to 12 days, started my journey with this channel...and I can tell you though the first few days might seem difficult...it gets better and later on you'd wonder why it seemed so impossible
I've quit many times with no problem, once for 7 years. I've never really felt addicted until lately because I'm making big life changes and my anxiety is through the roof. I overuse MJ when I'm anxious and avoid my issues which of course makes it 10x worse. I'm currently not smoking and today I really wanted to call my guy. I felt lonely and depressed about the long weekend and work issues. But I knew I had to avoid weed bc at this point it's NOT HELPING. I toughed it out bc I didn't want that feeling of failure and after lying in my bed scrolling CZcams for some hours I got up and tackled a project that was stressing me out. My anxiety was at 100 but it gradually went down and then I saw your new video. Perfect timing! Thanks for the amazing content. To give some context, I first started smoking when I was 16 or 17 and this year I'll be 60.
U got this man
This comment is awesome God Bless
Thank you for posting. It helped me today.
@@alicebowie9474Poor thing. Get yourself some good chocolate, your body is craving cannabinoids. Chocolate is chock full of cannabinoids, especially dark chocolate.
I believe you can quit weed for good
I’m over a month sober and I’m struggling with terrible depression and lingering CHS symptoms. All i can think about is running out to a dispensary and getting a joint, but i keep resisting that temptation. I truly believe it will get better in time. One thing you said that hit me, i was depressed long before i started smoking weed. I’m an introverted person, but i think i need to grow as a person and try something new. God this is all so hard, but i deserve to be happy ❤ going to make a list for myself to work on me. Thank you, i want this to work. I want to believe in my happiness so badly. Wish me luck…
You got this buddy! You are the only one who gets to decide when you get to be happy, the weeds time stealing your joy is over. Please stay strong I know your comment was over a month ago. Don't be afraid to reach out for support. I know I'm a random person but I am dealing with the same thing and life without weed is essential for me. I can't function while high and it causes physcosis... stay strong and much love❤
It will get better my friend. Even if you lapse or relapse, don’t give up, just start over. Depression is the hardest part for me too. I have tried to quit literally over a hundred times and failed, but I still haven’t given up. I’m three days sober but thats nothing to brag about lol. When I get sober I realize that I have a lot of negative fear based beliefs about myself and the world that don’t serve me at all or simply aren’t true. Those beliefs are what always lead me back to weed. In observing the lack of logic in these beliefs, then consciously choosing better ones, we can slowly begin to dismantle them. Good luck my friend, keep fighting the good fight. Much love 💜
My expierience is I keep coming back to it no matter what... be grateful for being able to hold the urge, it may feel like nothing is getting better. But the happiness when you return to normal is real.
Right there with you. Only thing that gives me any relief is my relationship with God
When did you feel better
Day 10 not fun anymore. I can handle the physical symptoms quite well. They help me actually. Once they are gone I cry and I feel like I don't wan to live. I'm not happy smoking it or not smoking it. My authentic TRUTH is that I truly think the world SUCKS more than ever and there is nothing for me personally to be happy about. Work, sleep, eat and repeat. Where do people go for FUN anymore? I have no idea.
I'm on day 10 and I hate everyone and everything right now. It's so miserable idk what to do or think.
@@Tambrose0405 I get you!
@@Godisfirst21 I'm on day 5 & losing my mind and feel hopeless. . .
you need to travel see hear and feel beautiful things
@@HevahaB What a beautiful message to recieve. Thank you.
My 10 things I can invest my time into:
1. Going to the dog park with my family & our dogs
2. Spending time with family in general
3. Writing out feelings in a journal
4. Caring for pets (such as feeding, cleaning, playing, walking, medication if needed, etc.)
5. Arts & crafts
6. Watching shows & movies
7. Reaching out to friends (I’m bad for isolating myself and have pretty much no friends because I hardly contact anyone and rarely follow through on plans to hang out with people)
8. Getting out of the house more
9. Doing chores (like he said, accomplishing things feels good)
10. Being more active & exercising for the dopamine boost & health benefits
Im in day 10 of no smoking weed or vape I’m so happy I never actually thought I would be able to I was so scared at first I finally got my appetite back on my day 9 and I’m just dealing with a bit of anxiety but I’m trying my best I do not ever wanna touch the substance again and I hope I can do it
Your videos have helped me a lot thanks for everything
Also is it normal for my chest to be hurting sometimes even though I’m not smoking anymore it mostly happens during day time anyone knows ?
@@dreamdollmiami1585 you should see a doctor. I've had to quit weed for up to a year for work related reasons and that's never happened to me. And I am a heavy smoker, I'm talking no less than 4 grams a day.
You should definitely get that checked out just to be safe.
@@DivinityAwakened i did and they told me it wasn’t anything so I suppose it’s just my body getting rid of it cuz I been doing vape and weed for almost 2 years I’m talking 5-8 blunts a day
@@dreamdollmiami1585 ahhhhhh. Yea you were a tobacco smoker. Tobacco will do that to you lmao
i have chest pain and some pain/tightness in my heart area, but the doc said my health was perfect... probably just the body getting rid of things i guess
I’m on day 6! Can someone say they’re proud of me? 🙂
I'm on day 3 and its insanely hard for me. I feel like I'm at war with myself. As a veteran who has become dependent on it I'm in a very dark and lonely place. I find myself constantly contemplating eating my shotgun to the face most days. It's a very terrible hopeless feeling.
I’m on day 18 today! I hope you’re still keeping with it! We’re all proud 👏🏼👏🏼
I’m currently 15 days sober, the first week actually wasn’t bad, but the past say 5 days, my anxiety and depression have been absolutely unbearable. Thankyou for making this video, I’m hoping that I can improve my mental health soon.
Hey, thanks so much for your work. Your videos really help me push myself forward to finding happiness again and reconnecting to my inner self. It's the 21 day of quitting weed and I still deal with anhedonia and feelings of anxiety and depression. What helps me to feel happier again is exercising, reading, going for walks, playing piano and a good night sleep. It's going to be a journey but I'm looking forward to the future!
Hows ur journey?
I found this video on purpose cause I finally did it. I deleted my weed man's number! 😤😖 Enough was enough. Thank God it's all behind me now and recovery can begin 🙏🏾 I have such a burst of confidence now and I can be social again. Never again will a plant control me! 🤣
He is right about how helping others keeps you clean. I’m an EMT and while that job in the past helped compel me to use, since I got my shit together helping patients has had the opposite affect compelling me to stay clean and use my experience to help all the addicts that call 911
I've smoked weed since I was 15 yrs old, I now have a daughter that's 17 yrs old and I want a better quality of life for both of us.
I want to make her and myself proud by changing "bad habits" and my overall way of life. I decided to quit about 48 hrs ago and found this channel about 24 hrs ago, right on time. I dont hang out much and I work from home so I need this info and it helps reading the comments. .I managed to stop eating meat in 2015 along with my best friend who's life was cut short by gun violence in 2022 ( a day after my birthday) . We both wanted to kick the "habit" but unfortunately he passed before we embarked on the journey. He credits me for helping him change his diet but in all actuality; HE played a major part by having faith. following and supporting me on the journey. This is by far the HARDEST thing I've every done but I got FAITH in myself.
To anyone reading this WE GOT THIS!!! KEEP FORWARD!!! GREATNESS AHEAD
Meat isn't unhealthy though. It has lots of vitamins and minerals that are essential during any drug withdrawal.
@@carnivoroussarah Unless you’re growing your own meat, you’re eating chemicals. For example, Do you know what gives steak 🥩 the “pretty red color” weeks after the cow has been slaughtered?
Do you think carbon monoxide is safe to consume?
@@Rmedia360absolute rubbish.
I already knew and do all of this. I’ve quit before and know that sometimes you just have to ride it out and know it will get better. Thanks for the great video.
I’m on day 45 and my physical with drawls has decreased tremendously. I also take vitamins . And I detox . I suggest B-12 and I’m being eating healthier foods . I eat more fruit and veggies. I also have been exercising everyday since stopping . I am currently struggling with anxiety / stress . I know I don’t wanna smoke again but it hard to deal with my anxiety attacks especially at work or when I’m sitting alone .
People told me to journal . I have tried writing and i county one to work out . At this point I am putting my worries at God hands 🙌. I focus on day by day. And try to be thankful of my blessing and being more positive 😊
5 weeks without weed and definitely been thinking about a blunt lately. This video has absolutely helped me.
Reading>>> it's been the only thing that gets me through day one, if I clean my room, spend the day cozy immersing myself into the book I can get through the first day of not going to use kicking it off. Makes things 100x easier
I even ask myself sometimes how can i live without that s**t and handle my days, how can i be normal after years of this prison. 4 days without, sleep nice but i'm sweating SO MUCH. Woke up on 3rd day nauseous with headaches. Today i'm better but still smoking nicotine. Started dreaming again, noticed my stress and paranoia are reduced. While i'm working i'm ok but when i get home it's when i think about it, the habit, the routine. Smoking everyday, more than 1 a day for the last 7 years. I know i'm strong and i will make it for myself and my mental health ❤
Started smoking cuz I was depressed, became more depressed, became borderline suicidal when I quit weed, and now I can barely look myself in the mirror after relapsing.
I relapsed after 7 months the longest I ever stopped and it took another four months to stop I’m one month clean feel a lot stronger!
Ur videos videos help me man, in middle school and first two years of hs i was so happy with my friends we went out and have fun. But now im relizing we only hang out and smoke then play some video games and smoke again. I didnt want to admit i was addictive at such a young age but i was in denial. I keep your videos and rewatch them because in a way you motivate me, and knowing that you went through what im going through rn makes me understand and not just to go back to weed thank you sm for talking time off and making videos to help the ppl that are stuck and have no help. Bless 🙏
Thank you for being so vulnerable… been rolling through your videos and you are speaking many of our stories… you’re helping me tremendously 🙏🏻
I'm from Buffalo to!! These videos are helping me through my journey for sure, 3 weeks in and im so depressed feel so lonely and not happy. Glad to find you. Go bills!
you hit super good points. Glad your spending the time to get these thoughts into a video.
Really solid tips! I appreciate it man.
You explain things in such a great way to understand. Thank you so much for this. I’ve also created a list and have been truly prioritizing my time.
You are gonna be such a great dad. Thank you for the tips.
I invested my time into sports getting back into golf, playing soccer. Helping out my family and friends and taking my business alot more seriously. I had to get over some real bad habits that I got into during my weed addiction but I'm getting there. This method works but it takes a long time. I think it's important to note its not going to happen over night. Start small build yourself up. You got this.
10000% agreed this is a very very long play method
Love how this is starting. So many things that I subconsciously think about. Amazing stuff
Thank you thank you thank you for your work! Currently titrating off and your videos are a powerful resource for me and many others I’m sure.
You really are living the dream. You quit all your vices and at the same time found your passion in helping others. You really are somethin dr. I am currently struggling with addiction day in and day out. Just gonna listen to you until i can get outta my own head.
Thank god for your work❤ thank you for your support and going into deeper topics about this addiction. The German videos i found were very superficial and i cant relate. Im so happy finding your channel.. You help me through a very difficult time.
I've smoked weed for about 15 years, and I'm nearly 3 weeks sober now.. I feel totally lost.. like I have no idea who I really am, or what my interests really are.. It's tough tbh, but I'm trying my best to stick it through.
Incredible content ❤ . I must say all the points you made here is accurate. 200%, but talk is cheap and action always hell harder!. And I’m not sure where to begin the process to free myself from substance but I know for certain I don’t want to use any substances anymore and I like to be free! And take control back of my like , right now I feel enslaved to this addiction of mine. I will try tomorrow to not smoke or vape and drink!
There’s a saying
“A beautiful life does not just happen, it is built daily by prayer, humility, sacrifice and hard work”
I think you made very important points.
I like point ten, knowledge is the power!! Is better to have an open mind to learn, but I dislike doing something I am not familiar with or find it hard. I will try better, never give up keep on going.
Thank you for sharing this ❤
Anhedonia .. just about to watch another vid I searched for of your content on this, my biggest battle in the last two years, and the guilt you feel behind it is equally as horrible
Wow this is amazing content thank you so much for your channel and hard work.
I appreciate you so much Doc! You help me more than you could know!
Thank you for your work! 🙏
This guys boutta change my life fr
seriously. you are helping me so so much. i am happy to donate more as i continue my recovery. please keep being you and making these videos for others. i wish i could meet you easily and give you some money for your service.
Thank you! It means the world to me, I’m glad your recovery journey is going well!
This is an excellent framework. Sort of similar to "Pathways to Recovery." I look forward to doing my own version of this.
I never saw weed as addictive . Cigs yes, I can’t go without them. Same with coffee. But I can go on vacation for ten days, not smoke and I’m fine. I miss it, but I’m fine. I still think it needs to go and cigs really need to go!!! Forty years of smoking both is way too long!!!!
Hey, I found your channel by chatting with a friend in an online video game and we started talking about our weed addictions. He informed me he found your channel and has been 5 months THC clean, and linked it to me. I'm actually really impressed with some of the points you are touching on. You drive them right home, and I can tell you've been through similar struggles as me, and that gives me hope. I'm wanting to join a Pilot Academy and become a commercial airline pilot, and there's a deadline coming up this Christmas which will require a drug test. I'm hoping I can take your lead, change my life, and pursue a career that I've always wanted. Fingers crossed, thanks again.
How did it go?
Update? ❤
Thank you Doc, I found your channel last week. I am starting day 18 today and I am feeling better everyday. My energy levels are still up and down. My dreams are extreme and when I wake up from them it takes me about hour or two to snap out of the emotional feeling that these very realistic dreams cause me. My dreams have been a big source of my negative emotional state in the morning. They are so real and so vivid that I wake up angry and confused of what is real and what is not. My days are good with positive thoughts but when I sleep is when my brain goes into this negative and crazy realm of negativity.
Same!!!! Day 16 for me.. We so got this mate xx
On day 18 now! How are you doing?
Man I started smoking again for that reason. I was 4 months clean and still feeling the same thing. Extreme vivid nightmares every time i went to sleep. It was horrible. I hope u still strong 💪
@@mathewbeats2658 nah that's not the reason if you gone 4 months there is some other issue
Think of it this way. You may have been using weed to hide from your own emotions / things in your life that cause you stress and anxiety, and all of those vivid dreams are your body’s way of purging all of that bad juju out. I know it seems like it will never end, and when sleep is so important it makes quitting so hard, but I promise each dream is just your body regurgitating bad feelings you’ve been hiding from.
Being in an unhappy, stifling and isolated place feeds into addiction
Such a great video thank you
thank you, I needed to hear this today
Anytime Sarah glad you found it when you needed it
Thank you for this
You have helped me so much.. Day 16 for me, will never go back.. Thank you xx
Did you ?
You are me down to an absolute T glad I found your channel I’m at the start of this journey but I know I got this if you can do it I can there’s no excuses now
This is gold advice... I need to learn to get high at life, and life only; with diverse and multiple sources, of healthy earned happiness. It is earned, cause you got to work for it (reading, exercising, etc.).
Thank you Dr frank!
You rock. Thank you!
thank you Doc!
Anytime!
Thank you!
You are awesome!
Quit today, no nicotine or weed. Pray for me 🙏🏽
How’s it going?
Love the information. Can hormone therapy assist with a combination of your remedies?
I was pumped to do this until I started watching these.
Thanks for the vid god bless
Hey Dr F. & family 😎
You've all got a friend👨👦
I’m at 6.5 months and still struggle with this :(
I am 2 and one half and yes. sleep is good but depression is around. the world in 2022 doesn't help
@@rockfantasysteve
The world in 2023 is even worse; we’re on the brink of war at this point. 🥲
Just got prescribed Zoloft.. starting tomorrow. Threw the weed in the dumpster tonight. Been smoking pretty much 30 years:/
I hope the Zoloft will help me with this part - if not oh well, I’m not going back. My new state isn’t legal so 🤷🏻♀️ here we go!
Add having some good clean fun!!!
Gonna give learning French a shot through Duolingo. I have a good 30-60 min commute to and from work depending on where our job is and also time in the evenings after the gym.
@@richardlawson6787 Tomorrow will be a month clean from weed. Between going to the gym 5-6 times a week, and practicing piano and French daily I’m feeling pretty content without weed at this point. Thanks for the pointer though!
I'm on day 10 and im so irrationally angry I just want to cry. Please help me.
I hope you're doing better now. I think sometimes crying, or letting the emotion out can help a bit. I know when I'm at max capacity in my brain, I need to exert some of it, either through excersise, guitar playing, or flat out crying into a pillow for a bit. I usually feel a bit better afterwords...
@@Jasonm250 this is day 66 and I can't believe how far I've come and how much better I feel. I don't see myself ever going back and I've been able to resist temptation on multiple occasions. I think the reason this time is different than all the other times I relapsed is because I know what to look for now and also know the minute I give in, I will internally beat myself up just like what happened last time. I learned to think of smoking as a spiritual entity trying to entice me and making it look better than it really is, when I know it's true colors and what it does to me.
@Ambrosia how did you work around the anger issue and then the sudden depression? I feel like I go through mood swings
I'm quitting weed again and it's been about 4-5 days. I've been doing pretty much all the stuff you mentioned. Im even building up my art business. The first 3 days I felt more or less good but now I'm really depressed despite everything I've done to improve my life. I know you said this won't happen over night but I feel so impatient and so alone. Almost everyone I work with smokes weed. The 2 people I'm closest to in my life also smoke weed. I feel very isolated. I want to cry but I can't. My stomach is all messed up and I'm getting headaches and nightmares. I can't afford therapy rn either. I think I can really commit to at least 3 month off weed but sometimes even that seems daunting. It seems like time is going by at a snails pace. Not only that but I feel like part of my reasons for quitting are fear based. I don't want to get kicked out of my place before I've found somewhere else to live. (My roommates drive me nuts btw and that doesnt help.) One of the reasons I quit was to stop making choices based on fear but I feel like I'm quitting based on fear too. I'm confused. I want to keep pursuing this but it seems like the odds are stacked against me. I feel out of control despite the great progress I've made. What do I do?
seems to me like you should distance yourself from people who partake in the habits you are so desperately trying to remove from your life. try and find some comfort in your own mind and the little things that make you happy and feel like yourself. take it easy man really seems like you are going through a difficult time and some feelings of depression anxiety loneliness are almost inevitable. and most importantly you aren’t alone my guy!
@@marshallrain1380 thanks I appreciate that but I can't afford to take any time off work so I'm going to be surrounded by stoners. It is what it is.
@@uncoolcat95 if it makes you feel any better I work a trade job, with a bunch of stoners and alcoholics and I am on my day 4 so I am struggling with the same thing
@@uncoolcat95 I wanted to reach out and let you know I'm praying for you. Your gonna get through this and be free of addiction!! Keep reminding yourself of the type of amazing person you long to return to. Your gonna make it!!
Listen carefully...you must replace a bad habit with a good one...learn how to jog...start slow...when you can run two or three miles kiss that depression and anxiety bye bye...jogging releases your body's natural endocabinolds...it's called runners high ..you ain't ever had a high like a runners high ..please give it a try
I’m 3 days free I feel very sad always
As well as some side affects after quitting smoking. If some people changed from tobacco to smoking weed some people might get a bad chest. Or even just changing brands some people could get some side affects as first
Day 1 guys let’s go
First day I’ve woken up without those damn night sweats! So happy 🤣
I hate them, I feel like I’m sleeping in a garbage bag.
Bro I found yo channel and I’m on day 2 the depression gets strong but I’m trying
I was a daily smoker and I quit on June 7th, was the last time I smoked. Right now is June 28th 2022. The positive side of it is, I stop seeing white and black dots floating around when I stand up too fast and I stopped having Twitches at night time before I fall asleep. But I've been having some depression. Yes I believe marijuana is bad for people.
It is. I hate weed it make me more depressed then i was in the first place just like alcohol.
@@AverageJoe1006 I'm still battling temptation. But I'm still sober for 22 days now.
I am an artist and I will invest more time in art making, but actually schedule this time as a priority rather than when I feel I can devote the time between other distractions.
Music is my passion, but since I've quit smoking, I don't feel motivated to even do what I love anymore. It sucks honestly.
20days sober seems like 20years.No sleep,no apetite,angry,depressed...Only my wife can make me happy that half hour pure action.
Thanks for the video! Chs sucks but I think my body is helping me give up the ganja
When I read Dopamine Nation I had the same frustration I’m feeling now. The people in that book are from silicon valley. They are doctors, engineers and business owners. They had families to return to. You talk about relationships, helping others, your career…I have nothing like that and I’m terribly addicted to kratom. I’ve pretty much been a neet since I dropped out of highschool 8 years ago for mental health issues. My life is so empty and I can only see it getting worse. I’m not capable of anything because I’m so damaged from drugs, isolation and childhood neglect. I want to quit more than anything, I really do, but I’m terrified that life without it is torturously unbearable. If I had a wife and career to return to I wouldn’t be filling their absence with this shit.
you are capable of everything what you went trought will make you stronger
Traditional roles have been destroyed in western nations. We are miserable because of this. Marriage and family are the most important things we can do.
@@HevahaB it feels like my brain is just broken now. I’m still as addicted as ever and just taking it a day at a time trying to maintain my sanity.
@@AS-kw5hd it actually feels like the opposite in my case. I’m a trans woman who grew up in a conservative family and environment. The reason I got so addicted was trying to escape the feelings of dysphoria because I repressed too long. If I had lived in a progressive open minded area I could have actually done what would make me happy and give me direction. I could be a part of my community and find a man to love me. I said wife in that comment because people don’t relate with transwomen. You probably think I’m just insane and that’s understandable because I even think I’m insane a lot of the time. If you can’t have what you want you don’t want anything and you just survive as you watch everything fall apart around you.
@@digineet8421 I felt some pain reading this. I have an empathy problem, that gets me in trouble. Psychos and narcissists are attracted to empaths.
I stand by what I said about traditional roles. The problem, in my opinion, is that we are born innocent and perfect, but we have family that are so damaged themselves,they basically break our brains. It has nothing to do with them being conservative . Progressive people are highly narcissistic too . Anyways, as a survivor of neglect, I find our reflection of ourselves is damaged and inaccurate . It must be us , we say to ourselves. We must be wrong/bad, because all the adults in my life, made me feel that way. It gets imprinted in our psyche. I think drugs are a way to erase yourselves for a few minutes. I think trans people are trying to erase themselves too. Bare with me , but between the plastics and soy in everything , hormones have been severely disrupted. Add in constant propaganda and the promise of salvation/ happiness if you try and change your gender, many lonely, neglected, people will gravitate to it. Not only do you get to erase yourself, they are telling you, that you will be happy and finally be yourself and at peace . ( Nobody is really at peace all the time, we live on the edge of a knife.) I say you were already perfect as you were born , but you as a little sponge (child) had no one to tell you that and it’s heartbreaking.
Everything we hear in the mainstream is lies. Whatever the worst thing that we think they, the government , are capable of, it’s 100 times worse.
You gonna spend your whole life trying to change yourself ? It’s a miracle that you were born. A perfect little baby . You were not born wrong. You, as we all do, have a spark of the divine in us How can that be a mistake ?
(I’m sorry if my opinion, hurts your feelings. It’s a complicated subject. )
You can still smoke weed but just be strict with it. After a hard workweek friday evening is when i smoke. Also on a rainy sunday when there is nothing to do. Just keep busy during the week and make yourself tired by working out like crazy.
I Quit THC But Now Trying To Stop Vaping After Quitting Cigarette So Now My New Goal Is To Drink Coffee And Eat Spicy Food And It’s Really Working For Me
One of the reasons why some people might not like changing brands. Could be beacuse there not use to more or less nicotine then normal
Im heavily handicap, unable to do much stuff… I quit many times before but I do not have anything to do with my time… this time I find it hard to occupy my time
I was struggling for years with drug addiction, it got so bad I almost divorced my marriage, luckily i was referred to an expert who recommended i microdose Psilocybin mushrooms which helped with my addiction and I’ll forever be grateful ,it’s a slow process but you will eventually make progress in the retrospect, this is 1year and few months sober after many years .
Anyone who says it’s not addictive or that people who can’t stop are weak, truly stfu, because you have zero idea wtf you’re talking about.
I stopped for the second time for good. I'm 38 days in of not having medical marijuana. I am now dealing with increase heart rate when up and moving around, did this happen to you?
i quit porn, vaping and weed all at the same time cold turkey. i’ve quit all of them before individually but i used to always go from one to the other. but i just quit all of them cold turkey and have been experiencing withdrawals and im ngl it sucks alot but im slowly getting over it everyday. its been like 3 weeks and i can tell im on the right path.
Heck yes to three weeks!
How is it going? Hope you are doing well. I would like to quit multiple things at once but am worried it will be too much all at once. Right now just focusing on quitting weed
It's weird but when I smoked weed I watched porn ..but it doesn't do anything for me off weed...I can't explain it but I noticed that
Havnt smoked in a month and before that smoked for 18 years straight. Constant depression and no meaning to life anymore. I only took a couple hits a day which helped me so much but recently just felt bad for some reason about smoking. Like im growing up or somthing. Anyway constant suicidal thoughts and life fucking sucks ass. Ill get over it in time i guess.
This day # 3 of not using weed ,right now my desire to stop using is much stronger than my cravings,but I have a serious brain fog,that is what one might expect after 54 years of using this drug !!
I am qutting weed because it's illegal first and second it's out of season. Third no option but to quit .

We (USA) have stigmatized so much it’s gotten too far to sober for far too many
I‘m doing it now
Heck yes!! It helps
Day 46 days I feel better but still suffering for anxiety attacks
Take up a running routine ..it's addictive but a good addiction
I have blank mind after smoking weed . Does it pass?
Going on 2 months still feeling bouts of depression
17 years of addicition... I've been quit for years and come back, for mounths,... bUT wEED DOn't make my happy.
Day 3 and I feel nothing but emptiness and anger why did I do this to myself ?
Over the past week about I’ve been having a consistent headache at least once a day for awhile or sometimes all day. I’ve been using carts for about a year. But only use 2 hits max per day so I think that’s light. Does anyone know if these headaches can be from the thc or carts?
Could just be dehydration but the scientific method says remove the variable. You’ll have to just give it up for a few days at least. Put it this way, it’s not going to kill to you quit. Hope you feel better.
If you're buying crappy ones off the street yes. If they came from a shop highly unlikely
@@Colby_00 thanks
Has anyone had tired legs… they feel weak and get tired very quick after stopping smoking thc??
I have had the same thing thought it was just me
