Day 2 of quitting. Felt a bit anxious and a little bit depressed but that feeling doesn’t last forever. I know I got this! The inner drive to get weed out of my life is so much that nothing can stop me!
I’m on my 3rd day quitting after 18 years daily smoke weed, I tried twice years ago but never got more than 3 days so I’m very proud today and it will be quit this time
just hit 40 days on my third attempt to quit and realize I have no support system, most of my friends are dead from decades ago and the few I have left are scattered across the globe & are all stoned on smoking /edibiles letting me know that when I see them in person I 'll have to use with them . I tried MA & its so depressing . I want to go to the gym but there was another teen gang shooting in front of my home this morning. Good times. I appreciate you and your message for those isolated / shut in . Im going forward. Thank you
right on Dj, congrats on 40 days. Huge. It definitely took me a while to find a tribe of people I could connect with. At the end of the day though I enjoy my own company the most which only came from spending a lot of time alone. I don't think I would want to go to that gym either. I'm a big fan of the iron home gym, pull-ups and pushups can always get the job done. What city do you live in?
I’m right there with on the 40 day mark, congrats. I’m attending NA meetings because smoking weed and drinking where both a big problem. I’m finding support there, but I also understand that it might be depressing for others. Just hang in there for now, and fuck anybody who needs you to use drugs to hang out. Find new friends when you’re able and ready because people who needs you to use to be friends, aren’t friends. 🙏
@@HawkmasterKnutson thanks. I've been isolated for years due to age & circumstances, covid pandemic being one of them . Starting over with the knowledge of what you don't want helps you to create what you do want.
Bro don’t punish yourself I been smoking for 12 years I grow my own so got a looooootta kush and I’m tryng to quit too. But bro don’t feel bad cause you see other rich dudes talking about how easy it is and how good it’s gonna be your life once you quit. Cause it’s not. I stoped for 4 months. The worse 4 months of my life. Depressed. Paranoid. Coudnt sleep at all. Nightmare. It was shit. Now I understand I love weed but I need a balance so I’m only smoking at night. Cause i sleep like a baby and I wake up so motivated. But when I stopped. My life went really down. So just think about this, wouldn’t be harder to stop completely than if you try to reduce a bit every day? Just take it easy bro don’t think about it. Just say , I’ll smoke when I really feel like I need it. Not because I’m a addict. Mindset. And then do what your body tells you but never feel sad or low cause of other people lives.
@CodingMindsMadrid Acknowledging your journey of "trying" to quit.. You'll have to endure a week of nightsweats to get it out your system. Or take melatonin,. After that week you'll rest much better & not have to use weed to sleep
I used to be afraid of depression. Now I know it's about alleviating depression not getting rid of it just doing activities to lift my spirits helps me feel I have some control and diminishes the sense of hopelessness.
Just hit 14 days. I have no desire to smoke, but I have had the urge to end the withdrawal symptoms. Hope that makes sense. Anyways, I'm going strong and the pros farrrr outweigh the cons. I'm very happy that I made this decision. And I'm looking forward to another two weeks and beyond. Stay with it!
Over 3 months without smoking after burning for 36 years. The first month was very difficult, hard to sleep and no appetite. 2month it got a lot easier, now on the 3rd month it's getting a whole lot better. Once in a while I can smell it and a thought hear and there but the desire to stop is stronger then the temptation to get a bag. I don't want to disappoint my wife and kids or lose my job that I got when I stopped burning . Life has been a whole lot better but I do miss some good skunk bud Once in a while honestly.
Thanks for sharing Tim. Sounds like Stockholm syndrome, it took me some time too fully stop desiring it too. Congrats on 3 months after 36 years, that’s incredible
31 yrs heavy smoker, ,I decided to stop almost a month ago, it's hard emotionally but this is fo my family, ,I am now starting to enjoy walking outside and the world, I am optimistic and this is for my children .
This is like my 5th time trying to stop and I’m furthest I’ve ever been. I’m on day 6!! My tips are slowly start weening yourself off, smoke ONLY at night after doing your daily duties. Only exception was working out/cardio helps ease the mind. Slowly you’ll train your body to get tired at night. Then practice killing your body with intense cardio/working out for a natural body tired and smoke one bowl. After like 3 days of doing that try without the late night bowl. your body will know what to do! We can do it!!
Your subconscious is always listening. If you tell yourself you’re depressed, you will be depressed. Smoke weed don’t smoke weed it doesn’t fucking matter, if you are smoking weed, eating, healthy and exercising, there is nothing wrong with it don’t listen to all the bullshit ☘️❤️🙏 happy. Happy happy my life is great. I get to live on planet Earth for a long time. ☘️❤️🙏
Been clean for a week now, the depression is definitely starting to hit but I've started meditating, getting outside more, reading, eating better, and even though I'm sad I'm very much enjoying life. I'm honestly enjoying feeling sad since while I was smoking it felt quite different, like it was filtered through a bunch of things, now I just get to feel the emotion for what it is and continue on with life.
This “pink cloud“ that you’re referring to is just the novelty of being present again, and back to reality. Not actually a physiological thing. I think you can keep it going forever if you just journal to yourself as a reminder of how it was when you were stoned every day. I’ve been off the stuff for a couple weeks now and I’m more social than I’ve been in a while but it’s the real me. No reason it has to stop. The keywords are DON’T FORGET
@@SobrietyUniversity You were so right about the “pink cloud” phase. Initially, when I quit cannabis, I woke up every morning with a zest for life and felt so much more present. It was actually a physiological sensation and was a high, in and of itself. Every new day was an adventure but now that sense of elation has worn off. I’m really hoping this returns to an extent because it was extremely helpful? Maybe I’m just going through a temporary lull? I’ve been clean for nearly 4 months now but that zest for life has ceased for the moment. I’m seriously lacking in motivation to move onto the next phase of my life and I’m just waiting for inspiration to strike somehow some way?
@@scottrap First, great job reaching almost 4 months. That's amazing, you've come along way since you first commented. Bad news, I wouldn't count on waiting for it simply returning. I found you eventually have to go out and start creating your own magic. Trying different things and going through the trial and error process of regular live. If you start working towards thing, you'll be surprised by how fast things can move and that you get to be responsible for feeling good.
My depression got really scary today... And i felt like i jad to smoke to save myself so i did ... I want to quit but it feels impossible for me and i feel i cant be without it
Sorry to hear man. Book a call with me and let’s figure out what’s holding you back and get you a plan to find success: calendly.com/sobrietyuniversity/sober-living-consult
Man….love your channel, love your energy. Appreciate you. I am about a year in. A lot better than where I was before, still struggling with motivation.
Thanks man. Congrats on a year. I hear you, I believe we must take action even when motivation isn’t there. If we always wait to feel motivation, there’s a lot of things we won’t get done
I’m going on month #2 and the desire to toke up again hit me hard all or a sudden. This last week has been a double dose of anxiety and depression, but I so far haven’t give into temptation.
way to go kyle. Get through the initial withdrawals and you'll never have to deal with it again. A big reason i stay away from weed is to not have to go through the withdrawals again.Those were brutal
What you said about the point when you FIRST started smoking was so real. I’m a week clean and my mind and memories seem to keep going back to when I initially started which was at 20. I’m 32 now and my mind feels like it’s back to my age 20 year old self again with much more adult experiences now 😂 I love it
Thanks James. I totally forgot today's 420. I did at first, 07/10 also. It's "faded" over time. Glad you reached out, always a good move when urges are present
Just hit 4 weeks today. No desire to smoke. The crazy dreams have subsided. I still dream but they are what I remember dreams being, kinda weird, but forgettable. Emotionally I feel good, I was really irritable for awhile there. But, that has passed and I feel balanced. I'm not elated. Just kinda...normal. I have SO MUCH MORE TIME. That's the most surreal part of all of this. It's been 4 weeks, but I feel like it's been months since I've smoked. I started a new business. I jumped a level as a boxer and I feel very healthy. I also don't get drunk, every once in a while I'll have a glass of wine but that's it. I also don't watch porn (which is honestly the best decision I've made, it's really really whack. I don't wanna tell anyone how to live, but I gotta say, porn is not good.) Anyways, staying strong and showing up for myself. Stick with it, guys, you got this!
Dude it really helps how you share from your own life because we can relate thanks again I think your social skills have improved greatly you seem very on point in this vid
yo! Guys if yall are feeling depressed on the quitting weed part i really recommend reading the bible if you spiritually believe in it. It has really helped me a ton since quitting!!!🎉
I'll have to do some research, not actually sure of any celebrates that have quit. I only can think of one's that still use, snoop, wiz and seth/joe rogan. There's gotta be a few though.
I reverted back to 18 yrs old mentally when I started using weed too. The unfortunate thing is I was 48 yo when it was legalized in Canada.. OK seriously.. after 5.5 yrs of using it, glad to be off it and everything (well except my life-long favorite drug, caffeine). Cheers.
Quitting weed is insanely hard. Been smoking for around 12 years now and my finances were screaming at me (the wife too) lol and it only made me more depressed. Its my 2nd day of no smoke and it abso-fucking-lutely SUCKS. The constant thoughts of "you need a better job", "you need to stay healthy", "you need a good hobby", are exhausting. I feel like the walking dead already. Explain to me what's the damn point of it
Yes, it may be one of the hardest things you do in this lifetime. Success isn’t easy and takes work and effort. It sounds like those thoughts are your intuition talking and they’re probably repetitive because you aren’t taking action on them or have been delaying that part of your self development for quite some time now. You get to decide what kind of life to live and you can either put in the work to have that successful fulfilling life or sit back and watch life go by. As they say, embrace the suck. It will make you a stronger man and I’m sure your wife will appreciate having a strong virtuous man that takes care of business
Just keep reminding yourself that somewhere along the way you made the decision to stop you had valid reasons and you have taken that massive leap of faith in yourself and in life to overcome. Hang in there love its going to open your mind to just what your are capable of. ❤ Love from London 🇬🇧
Day 2 for me, going on a trip for the next week and won’t have access to weed. Hopefully the side effects from quitting will wear off within the next couple days so I can enjoy the trip
Almost 60 days in and I must say, sobriety is HIGHLY overrated. I have not lost a pound, I eat as much if not more.. Menial tasks that I would enjoy high, like mowing the yard, going on a bike ride, and relaxing with friends genuinely sucks. I can barely motivate myself to do anything. I am pissed off and angry at everything. I don’t smoke cigarettes, I don’t drink, and I don’t take pills! I am Completely stressed out and over emotional about everything. I know it is not for everyone, but herb is my medicine, and I’ll be damned if anyone can to tell me it is not. I feel like videos like this are do-gooder propaganda that try to give you a guilt complex about herb. Eff this nonsense.
I’m at 7.5 months in my sobriety journey. The constant anxiety and some depression is still very present. I smoked for a very long time. Does it really get easier?
Thanks for sharing. It does if you're putting in the other necessary work. ie, exercise, nutrition, working towards goals. Quitting weed in itself isn't enough. If you want help identifying what you might be missing in your recovery, I invite you to book a call with me and take a deeper look: calendly.com/sobrietyuniversity/sober-living-consult
Im on day 5 from weed and concentrates a day after quitting i started this intermittent fasting called omad My symptoms so far excessively energetic ,high hunger,less sleep , episodes of nausea and inability to foucus for steady periods. I believe the nausea is from the weed but everything else is from the omad . my eating diet was probably worse thany many drugs. Overall its still comfortable enough for me but i feel my life changing . Hope these symptoms dont get worse . Takes one month to get clean Takes one month to body adjust to new diet without symptoms
Thanks for sharing, including the struggles and good job focusing on your diet. You got this man. I found that on the other side of those struggles was the relief I was looking for
This content is interesting. I'm quitting for a job. I'm not having any issues. I don't even really care that I'll be abstaining even after the drug test. I was looking for info on ways to get it outta your system faster for the drug test. My friend is the manager where I'm getting the job and we're waiting til it's outta my system to go ahead and finalize the hire. I'm in an abusive environment at my current job and wanna get out asap. I'm sorry y'all be struggling with marijuana. I wonder if my means of dosing has anything to do with my ease of ditching it. I would make weed infused coconut oil and cut off 2-3 grams and chase that with a drink. That's how i dosed rather than smoking it
Did anyone feel a sensation in the back of their skull that spread down to the spine then all over the body. Kinda like a warm feeling then you feel numb and need to breathe as your body feels stiff and cold?
Got a month and a week clean after 25 years of daily smoking. The days are excellent, a good bit more energy and desire to be productive than before, but the evenings are still usually characterized by anhedonia. But I know it’ll be worth it. All the weed did by the end was make me okay with being bored. I don’t want that anymore. I want something more. And I know I’d never find it if I kept on the path I was on. Many evenings, that little voice tries to tell me it’s not out there…but I’m choosing not to accept that. I’m going to keep plugging away. It took me more than a couple months to dig the hole I was in, it’ll take longer than that to get out. That’s what I’m choosing to believe anyway, even if I don’t feel it right now. Thanks and love from TX 🫶
Check this vid out. Talks about it more in detail. How Long Does It Take To Feel Better After Quitting Marijuana? ruclips.net/video/aR0FBA0Tj58/видео.html Also how is your fitness, nutrition and spiritual practice? Quitting weed won't do much if you're not taking care of yourself in these other areas
Oh I never give up, I’ve quit drinking and cigarettes and that was a pain too but it didn’t give me this type of anxiety and depression, and the sweating, and anhedonia in general and I was diagnosed with buegers disease and gastroparesis so hard to focus on any good but I know it’s my brain trying to lie to me and I’ll keep pushing it just sucks, right now
It's for real. Smoking pot becomes a part of a routine and when repeated routines break, people get anxious inherently because they are not used to it because routines become comfortable after a while.

How are you now ?
Me too
I’m somewhere around 80 something days clean and everything is alright besides some very vivid dreams. It’s also very difficult to focus on anything.

Just keep reminding yourself that somewhere along the way you made the decision to stop you had valid reasons and you have taken that massive leap of faith in yourself and in life to overcome. Hang in there love its going to open your mind to just what your are capable of. ❤
Love from London 🇬🇧
Day 2 for me, going on a trip for the next week and won’t have access to weed. Hopefully the side effects from quitting will wear off within the next couple days so I can enjoy the trip
Nice. As long as you don't slip from now till then, you ideally can have a good time
@@SobrietyUniversity the fact that I leave tomorrow afternoon and don’t get my next paycheck until Thursday has definitely helped😂🤝
Almost 60 days in and I must say, sobriety is HIGHLY overrated. I have not lost a pound, I eat as much if not more.. Menial tasks that I would enjoy high, like mowing the yard, going on a bike ride, and relaxing with friends genuinely sucks. I can barely motivate myself to do anything. I am pissed off and angry at everything. I don’t smoke cigarettes, I don’t drink, and I don’t take pills! I am
Completely stressed out and over emotional about everything. I know it is not for everyone, but herb is my medicine, and I’ll be damned if anyone can to tell me it is not. I feel like videos like this are do-gooder propaganda that try to give you a guilt complex about herb. Eff this nonsense.
I’m at 7.5 months in my sobriety journey. The constant anxiety and some depression is still very present. I smoked for a very long time. Does it really get easier?
Thanks for sharing. It does if you're putting in the other necessary work. ie, exercise, nutrition, working towards goals. Quitting weed in itself isn't enough. If you want help identifying what you might be missing in your recovery, I invite you to book a call with me and take a deeper look: calendly.com/sobrietyuniversity/sober-living-consult
I'm in the same situation 😢😢😢 very depressed and I'm still dealing with insomnia and anxiety

day 1 for me
Im on day 5 from weed and concentrates a day after quitting i started this intermittent fasting called omad
My symptoms so far excessively energetic ,high hunger,less sleep , episodes of nausea and inability to foucus for steady periods.
I believe the nausea is from the weed but everything else is from the omad .
my eating diet was probably worse thany many drugs.
Overall its still comfortable enough for me but i feel my life changing .
Hope these symptoms dont get worse .
Takes one month to get clean
Takes one month to body adjust to new diet without symptoms
Thanks for sharing, including the struggles and good job focusing on your diet. You got this man. I found that on the other side of those struggles was the relief I was looking for
@@SobrietyUniversity update im going in 5 weeks in now same with the omad diet so many good changes are happening
@@silent_torseeker7741 Congrats man, great to hear. Mad respect
I don’t know why I keep coming back to the addiction every time my ex comes back. I always end up back in the arms of both. Substance and him. :/
Sounds like codependency
I quit caffeine as well so i got zero pink cloud just depresseion and fatigue
Good stuff quitting both, not easy. Hang in there, it too shall pass
Glad to hear, I did the same and have had a headache for 3 weeks. Super angry and depressed. I’m still going
When did you feel better
One week while am quitting but sleeping it’s problem for sure
Congrats. You’re in the thick of it. Stay strong and sleep will return
@@SobrietyUniversity yes for sure am trying to drink hot thing soo dat I sleep and it’s working slowly by slowly
@@twizereyesudaniel1093 right on. Keep in touch with your progress
Anyone get dry skin or sore throat from smoking? It always makes my skin dry, and my throat gets sore from the hot smoke being inhaled. 😢
Personally never got dry skin or throat thankfully, as long I didn’t rip bongs all day
This content is interesting. I'm quitting for a job. I'm not having any issues. I don't even really care that I'll be abstaining even after the drug test. I was looking for info on ways to get it outta your system faster for the drug test.
My friend is the manager where I'm getting the job and we're waiting til it's outta my system to go ahead and finalize the hire.
I'm in an abusive environment at my current job and wanna get out asap.
I'm sorry y'all be struggling with marijuana. I wonder if my means of dosing has anything to do with my ease of ditching it. I would make weed infused coconut oil and cut off 2-3 grams and chase that with a drink. That's how i dosed rather than smoking it
Did anyone feel a sensation in the back of their skull that spread down to the spine then all over the body. Kinda like a warm feeling then you feel numb and need to breathe as your body feels stiff and cold?
That sounds intense made. Thankfully I did not. Sounds like potentially the signs of a kundalini awakening
Not everyone is the same
Background music is too loud bro, it is irritating
I switched to CBD.
Got a month and a week clean after 25 years of daily smoking. The days are excellent, a good bit more energy and desire to be productive than before, but the evenings are still usually characterized by anhedonia.
But I know it’ll be worth it. All the weed did by the end was make me okay with being bored. I don’t want that anymore. I want something more. And I know I’d never find it if I kept on the path I was on.
Many evenings, that little voice tries to tell me it’s not out there…but I’m choosing not to accept that. I’m going to keep plugging away. It took me more than a couple months to dig the hole I was in, it’ll take longer than that to get out.
That’s what I’m choosing to believe anyway, even if I don’t feel it right now. Thanks and love from TX 🫶
I am on day 14. Constantly pissed off and no energy. Please someone tell me when this will pass.
Check this vid out. Talks about it more in detail. How Long Does It Take To Feel Better After Quitting Marijuana? ruclips.net/video/aR0FBA0Tj58/видео.html
Also how is your fitness, nutrition and spiritual practice? Quitting weed won't do much if you're not taking care of yourself in these other areas
It sucks and you end up with Anhedonia and hate everything l, so far only two weeks in
Hang in there. Remember what’s going well in your life
Oh I never give up, I’ve quit drinking and cigarettes and that was a pain too but it didn’t give me this type of anxiety and depression, and the sweating, and anhedonia in general and I was diagnosed with buegers disease and gastroparesis so hard to focus on any good but I know it’s my brain trying to lie to me and I’ll keep pushing it just sucks, right now
@@ceciltuttle743how are you doing
It's for real. Smoking pot becomes a part of a routine and when repeated routines break, people get anxious inherently because they are not used to it because routines become comfortable after a while.
Forsure. Replacing those harmful routines with healthy ones makes a world of difference
