    If you don’t have good discipline and control over your mind , weed will be a problem rather than for chilling and having fun. DONT BECOME A STONER you need to be sober at some point or you forget your real self

      depends on the person some ppl thrive off of it. I know a family of lawyers who went through law school smoking daily and still lawyers and still smoking alot. some people need it for meds some ppl just need it cause they think more clearly off of it. it's really situational. it's more that weed makes you need to use more of ur will power.

      Dude those words are powerful I'm so tired of smoking 3 to 4 blunts a day it has also been a crutch 4 me the last 3 years every day all day. This Sunday I said no more I stopped went 72 hours with out but I have PTSD, paranoia with physcotic tendencies, crippling depression disorder,sever panic attacks,and the worst case of insomnia. In the last 72 hours I got 6 hours of sleep so I went back only this time there's a limit I only smoke a little bit be4 bed like right be4 and just enough to get me tired not super high. I'd rather smoke a little bud then to take sleeping pills they prescribed to me. Am trying to learn to go threw out the day with out it hard tho but it's been 4 days with only smoking be4 bed. At that I'm supposed to be taking 3 pills a day 1 for sleep, a anti psychotic, and anti depression. I think a lil bit of bud at the end of the day is better 4 me it puts me to sleep

Moderation with it is cool but for me ive been smoking too long non stop lol. I wouldn't say weed itself is addicting but the high it gives is & it does throw off ya focus. How long have you gone without smoking weed and doing your best compared to smoking and still doing ya thing? I bet the results would be drastic... if you cant go without 6 months+ of it and do it moderately (twice a month) ...then my friend you may just be confused on what addiction is lol. But in the end everyone struggles and do things a different way. So If what ya doing works and your satisfied with life, then keep doing it.

    Amen. This is what happened to me. I had started smoking when I was 16 and smoked on and off till 22. At 22 I received a clear message from God that if I wanted to fulfill my purpose on Earth then I needed to stop smoking and drinking. It was preventing me from thinking clearly and it kept my mind clouded from receiving divine guidance. I love weed, but I wasn’t functional. I slept, ate, and was idle for the most part. I’m now 25 & still haven’t smoke. My mind is so clear. I love it. Thanks for sharing! You are the only person who has received this kind of message like I have

(Before I go to work, after I get out, before bed, before eating, before doing anything that involves leaving the house pretty much.) Gonna go for it, feel like your video came across my path for a reason, and the universe doesn’t make mistakes.

    What a powerful lesson to learn at age 11. My mother had the opposite approach and completely lost her shit when I got busted smoking weed lol. I can totally resonate with using Mary Jane as a crutch, as I’ve had a love/hate relationship with weed for many years now. I’m slowly letting it go, but man does life get so much better when you learn to be in your own body and not have an external vice. But weed is a seductive trickster by nature and can lure you in very easily if you’re not careful :P 😂

I know I could become the best version of myself if I just let it go but it’s the anxiety, the depression, the relearning everything that makes me a nervous wreck every time I attempt to quit.

      Carlos Penaloza You’re not alone. I still haven’t found the strength to quit. All I can say is if abstinence is the goal, keep trying until you achieve it. Something I’ve been doing lately is making a list of all the things I could buy instead of buying a bag of weed. Also replace statements like “I wish I was a stronger person” with “I AM a strong person” “I CAN stop smoking weed” & “I AM going to stop smoking weed and the benefits of doing so are....” if I don’t know one thing I know for certain that thoughts & emotions create reality. Have faith in yourself, never feel bad about where you are on your journey, & if you ever fall get back up and keep it moving! With patience, persistence, and dedication we’ll get there eventually just trust the process!

    This resonates! I just stopped almost 3 weeks ago...like yourself I started the journey within with plant medicines as well...Aya...San Pedro...Shrooms...Hapi'...and I noticed smoking weed was doing NOTHING for me anymore! My soul said I'd passed that level. I also noticed I couldn't recall my dreams on weed. When I stopped not only was my dreams clear, but during meditations I could astral travel easier and see crystal formations in my 3rd eye. I was told by my higher self that I didn't need it....I have NO addiction side effects either. I don't knock it for other's I just do what's right for me like you said. 🙏🙏🙏🙏💯👑

    Interestingly, I had a similar conversation with my son after I caught him drinking alcohol with his friends when he was 13 years old. I took him to the "tracks" an introduced him to some of my old friends who took an errant path in their youth. They hung around that area most day drinking, drugging, and hustling. My son is 41 now with kids of his own and I think he got the message. Thank you my young brother for sharing your wisdom.

    I accidentally clicked on this video, and your intro got me to stay and watch! Recently I've noticed so many new possibilities of great people I could and should be surrounded by, and now I am thinking about what I need to let go of so that I can attract those people and possibilities in life towards me. My first thought is that I am holding on to the old me. The person that people thought I was, and the person who let other people's perspectives on him dominate his own view of himself. So now I am working on letting go of that person, and looking myself in the mirror to not only acknowledge my vices and ways of seeking shelter in my comfort zone; but after watching this I am inspired to take action on LETTING GO of all those things that don't serve me, no matter how comfortable they make me. Thanks for making this video, it was dope! Bless up!!! 100.

    Weed is medicine unless you really need it, it shouldn't be a daily routine or habitual in any way. If you use it recreationally once in a while you won't have a tolerance it will actually be better. It's all about a good balance. If you don't have a reason to be smoking it you probably shouldn't be. Weed is not for everyone. For some people it just does not work others can be super productive taking care of multiple things.

Then I stumble upon this video.... I'm currently day 2 into sustaining from cannabis. I started using 8 years ago, early 40's to help me through some VERY challenging times, including health issues. Cannabis became my medicine then. Now it's become a crutch. My soul calling is to mentor/coach others through their Dark night of the soul and get them onto aligning to their highest vibration. I know cannabis is holding me back and keeping me small. My toes are up to the edge and I'm terrified to put myself out there. The cannabis has helped but hindered me from going for it in all areas of my life. It no longer serves a purpose and I'm ready to let it go. A BIG THANK YOU for this video.

It used to be a part of our get together, a Spanish tradition, but I’m glad that I’m no longer a slave to it. That’s my power. I can say no when offered.

    Thank you for this video! Been on the fence for a while now and my friend Shanna, who did your bridge experience, sent me this video. So much gratitude, thank you so much!
