So true. I’m only two days in but jeez the first three days or so are always the longest. I made it a full year and then made the mistake of “celebrating” that win by smoking again. 8 months later I’m like, damn. That 8 months went by way too fast and I feel like I got way less done.
@@artificiallyunintelligent4537 Thats exactly why you don’t even take so much as one hit ever again whether it be a year, 2 years or more down the road. You entrap yourself by picking up that weed. When you quit it’s for life, you breathe air and only air for the rest of your life.
Struggling with getting past that exact mind game right now. I’m trying to get sober now to focus and finish up a big project by the end of the month, but my brain keeps trying to convince me “This is going to slow you down. You might as well just finish the project and then quit.” Thing is, this project could have been done by May. Could have been done by April or March, really. But I just keep slowing myself down by letting my addiction win.
I remember when I started I kept saying to myself I was always going to quit at the next big event (e.g. starting college, the new year, finishing college, starting work). What changed it for me was my relationship with others and seeing how it impacted that - I noticed that in the weeks I did not smoke my passion for everything and everyone around me felt stronger. I found that funny because I'd always wondered why my love for everything wasn't as strong as when I was a teenager.
Right now is the best time. Even if you don’t succeed 1st time, keep going. You can’t change yesterday, you can’t tell what tomorrow will bring. Today is the only one that counts
Thank you for what you do. The comments section is also a breath of fresh air literally. We all get the cravings to start again and this reminds me to stay strong. 2.5 months since my last relapse with weed. We don’t need it.
Yea! I hated them too.. until I realized where the hatred is coming from.. just my defensiveness like any other addiction.. I’m working on the cigarettes now.. but cutting back.. I was born at 4:20 am so intrinsically it makes it more difficult 😮
I’m 17 but I started smoking in 6th grade when I was about 11-12 and then I started vaping 7-8th grade year. After I was way down the rabbit hole I thought, “Man I can quit whenever” then I started cigarettes way before they banned flavored vapes in Cali but after they did that I started heavy on the cigarettes. I haven’t quit since, but I’m proud to say I’m on day 4 of no nicotine and imma be trying to cut out the weed after I cut out the cigarettes.
8 months no cigs and 4 almost 5 months no weed and I lost a good amount of weight I was fat because of mindless eating now I do water fast and cleanse my temple
@@422crown good for you man. Im 3 days off weed, still smoking cigarettes because quitting too many things at once can lead to failure. Any expectations for a quitting weed timeline? Its day 3 and i still dont have vivid dreams, just anxiety & night sweats. And, of course lack of motivation & insomnia.
100 per cent on the weight loss. I was only smoking on weekends but then basically binge eating while high. This was one of the big motivations for me to stop.
Today is my first day I’m actually giving it a go. It’s 3:09 where I’m at now and feeling pretty good about it so far. Just need all the will power in the world… it’s weird being stone sober but in a good way 😎
Yeh bro this morning I realized the longer u smoke the harder it’ll potentially be quitting, bcuz everything’s about balance - ur mind will need to rebalance 🧠 what goes up must come down…harsh reality but you WILL REBALANCE ❤ that’s the nature of life 🌱 🌏♾️ it also depends how badly ur addicted / what u r avoiding
I think It’s mainly the people that smoke all day everyday without a sober moment except when your asleep especially if using the vapes and thc cartridges when it gets to that point it really impacts your life and especially the withdrawal
weed can be your best friend but be your worst enemy at the same time. if you aren’t choosing to quit limit it to small amounts. if you quit then you quit, this is your life with your decisions.
@@fatskater1053 of course don’t you worry about it at all. if you want to smoke weed go for it all the way again it is your life to live not anyone else’s. just know you can smoke whenever you please to and make sure to use it when you think you need it or else using it too much will turn it into a habit. happy smoking brotha! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you for these videos I thought I was the only one with this thought process, and it’s only been a week but I can honestly say I’ve been feeling so much better , I saw the video you did on what to eat when you stop and man you helped me so much I’m Back on eating 3 times and I feel so much better , clear minded and more motivated
I always kept saying I’ll quit when I finish what I have.. then I would buy more and repeat the process… you really think it’s true until you realize you just bought some more without even thinking about it.
@kevinramirez538 I did the same. But I noticed I would look up deals before I'd buy. This became a pattern. Noticing the patterns before the purchase helped me to stop the purchase. It really brought the process right up front because I became aware I was doing it to myself and I didn't need to. I quit smoking but sometimes I still notice patterns that used to lead up to smoking.
Never let smoking weed control you, you control it. It’s a mindset that I do, so when I just wanna cleanse for a bit, I put it away and that’s it. It’s tough but it can be done. But again, everyone’s different. Viva 420✌🏼❤️😊.
i would say it all depends on the person i been doing it for almost 2 years and it hadent had any effects on me, i take break when i want without a problem but what he’s saying is very true, i still get back draws but i never crave it, its all on a persons will power and self control
My autistic boyfriend and I both learned that those delta 8 pens were causing severe psychosis and all our relationship problems. I'm on day 43, he is on day 5. We are so much better now and back together finally. Took him a second but I woke him up thanks to Dr. Frank. How lucky are we to be saved from the "demon pen" as we call it now.
It's not that hard to not smoke as much. It's not as addictive as ppl think. Quitting may be hard but not smoking as much and being a responsible adult is possible.
Weed was my biggest addiction besides cigarettes and I don't ever crate smoking weed because of the high that it gave me but it was so hard to get off of cigarettes because they didn't do anything to my brain so literally that was like no consequences until I started slowing down on smoking and then the cigarette started making me feel like it was more like drugs instead of a cigarette but I still have it completely stopped smoking or vaping now but I think it's better for me instead of smoking 🚬 cigarettes but that don't mean that it's like that for everybody I'm having a really hard time quitting all of it because I've been doing it for 10 years and it's hard to quit it all
I’m 16 basically for the last 8 to 9 months I’ve been doing weed vaping, nicotine I don’t want to have long-term effects I kind of like weed, so I want to wait to him at least in college may be a little order as for the nicotine it’s just not worth it. I’m about to throw my vape out right now. Basically quit vaping, nicotine and maybe. Go cold turkey on the marijuana for two years it’s gonna be tough but I think it’s gonna be worth it
True, but if we’re being honest most people aren’t going to catch themselves early on especially if they’re using to cope with problems in their life thinking it’s going to be temporary usage that won’t exacerbate.
that’s me now , wanting to wait until after my birthday June 29th. But I think it’s best I start now. Procrastination is something I’m struggling with. I’ll say “oh I’ll stop Sunday it’s the start of a new week” or “I’ll start being consistent working out starting Monday”. Hopefully I can overcome this.
I mean that is true but I started because of friends and the first hit I ever took out of a pen was this year and it was a nightmare. Then I didn't do weed for about 2 months, then went back to hit and did joints to see if I would feel good and I did. So ever since I been doing weed, I like doing it but if I want to quit smoking I'll try another drug or just switch to edibles
Alcohol and weed is unhealthy over time but it takes years for it to really do damage to your lungs and even the brain as well. Once you quit, you can return to healthy function again
Weed isnt physically addictive. Just habit forming. Sorta like biting your fingernails. Its virtually harmless for an adult to smoke aside from it being not the greatest for your lungs. Believe what you want though. As a person whos genuinely struggled with drug addiction and nearly died from an OD i find your commentary rather commical
Giving up weed is so damn hard. But I'm only on this video to learn and gather advice from him because I'm not quitting either but my birth parents made me more addicted by using drugs while I was still in there stomach.
For help quitting: stan.store/AddictionMindset
Two months weed sober. Weed will make time fly and numb your experiences.
Keep going and don’t look back. You’ve already beat addiction, run like the wind with the win.

it comes down to the person.
This is me...rn.
Need help quitting would like to know how to just break this addiction rn
It's been 5 days and my stomach feels upset because of quitting, what's that mean?
i also experienced stomach pains during withdrawls. What you're experiencing is normal. Be patient with yourself
4 days sober except nic vape feeling better.... cant poop only bad side effect for me
10 days smoke free today
The best time to quit is before they get addicted and never let themself get addicted.
