      ​@Ohzeeyaydang guys it's so hard for me and I've only been smoking since I was 16 and I'm 21 almost 22 I quit vaping and it's not nearly as hard as this yeah you don't get much physical withdrawals like nicotine but you literally have to relearn how to do life without weed, about to go to work so I smoke a bowl well not now so what do I do before work, In between games go smoke a bowl not anymore all those times you'd be high is missing on top of not being able to enjoy things even if you tried so you're forced to just be depressed until it fixes itself or go back to smoking

    I allowed weed to take over my life. Been smoking for about 12 years now. I’ve always loved it. Never saw a problem with it. Went through a pretty rough patch the last few years and I got to the point to where I was smoking sun up to sun down 24/7 just to numb myself. I maintained work, sucked at relationships. Intimate or not. my mental health completely deteriorated. Depression took over completely for the first time. My stomach started hurting every morning, like the worst nausea you could think of. To make a long story short I fucking hated waking up. The only “joy”I found in life was my weed. That is until I found your videos. I’m 7 days clean thanks to this channel. You helped me realize I need to stop. I can honestly say i feel 1000x better than I did a week ago. (Other than anxiety and literally no appetite) it feels good to be sober, to be in tune with what I’m feeling. The goal is to get to a point to where I can live my life without wanting it. I hated feeling like I needed to get high. The weight that has lifted off my shoulders from that feeling alone is tremendous. For anybody struggling to make the decision, do it. If you’re contemplating then it probably means that it’s time. Do it for you. You’re worth it.

My body developed some kind of Allergy to weed this two last years which I didnt have when i was younger nd neither all those other symptons I mentioned before,so enough Is enough, remember, when u smoke It daily ITS an addicion just like with alcohol or heroin

    I remember few years back after my wife died, I was left alone with 3 kids. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got addicted to cigarettes. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment changed my life for better. I can proudly say i'm totally clean for 6 years and still counting. Always look to nature for solution to tough problems, Shrooms are phenomenal.

    Don’t even try smoking weed kids. It’s not even worth it and I would love to restart my life and choose to never of picked up that pipe. Smoking marijuana ruined my life and it made me so insecure but I got plenty of girlfriends and It made me paranoid paranoid around police. I am here back in high school in the late 90s we would roll around in our drop top Lowrider Hondas and just smoke blonde after blonde after blonde after blonde and I smoked way too much and that’s why I felt the way I did. And that’s too much for a growing mind. nowadays I take a few hits of the best weed on the planet and I’m good for hours. Everything is all about moderation, so I’m not here to try to teach you guys anything like some my thing in their little brains. Just try to do the right thing in life and do everything in moderation because I did way too much of it and I really wish I would not have.

    After smoking for over 30 years, I found myself reaching for a joint whenever I felt my high slipping away. However, I am proud to say that I am now almost three months clean. To those who believe that there are no withdrawal symptoms from marijuana, I must respectfully disagree. The first month of my journey was incredibly tough, as I battled depression to the point of tears.
    I am currently working on putting together resources to start a Marijuana Anonymous group in my area. My heart goes out to anyone going through the detox process - I want you to know that it does get better with time. Today, I am able to sleep better and recall my dreams at night, something I have not experienced in years.

      This right here. When I started my job I had been clean for 3 months. Then I regressed into doing multiple dabs a day every day. It's just not sustainable. I make more mistakes at work, and I'm completely unmotivated if not checked out because all I want to do is smoke and stay inside. Did you end up staying clean? If so, how you doing?
      Edit: I quit, and while I noticed that I'm more stress-reactive (for now, as my brain receptors return to normal), I am more motivated and productive both in and out of work.

    Day 3 without smoking. I started smoking in 2017 to help quit alcohol. After two years sober, I relapsed during COVID, drinking and smoking again. Although I was against smoking weed on my life, I picked it up from a friend who used it to quit drinking. It was just trading one addiction for another. At 38, I’ve been drinking since I was 17. I’ve been sober from alcohol for a year and now three days from weed. I also got addicted to Kratom but quit that earlier this year. It’s been a journey, and I relate to everyone's struggles.

  • @bryantsamperi3402
    @bryantsamperi3402 6 месяцев назад +4

    Be careful who you help quit. Traumatic stress often leads to chronic stress disorders. Stress produces cortisol. An overabundance destroys the brain. People with chronic stress are likely to have brain damage due to this. The symptoms mimic those attributed to the stereotypical stoner.
    Furthermore, one part of the brain that is damaged is the endocannabinoid system. One correcting this deficiency with natural cannabis - consuming as medicine - should not just quit.
    Now, there have been 100s of millions of violent alcohol related crimes over the past 60 years, including the sexual abuse of 10s of millions of children, all primary causes of PTSD and other stress disorders.
    However, the war on cannabis, the only competitor to alcohol, and most chosen alternative of the traumatically stressed, added decades of trauma upon trauma and stress upon stress, sending multitudes into chronic stress.
    You know how those were historically treated.
    In other words, multitudes need cannabis.
    10s of millions of Americans are strung out on prescription psych meds because of these things.
    I would argue half of them wouldn't be if they had access to high quality cannabis. They certainly wouldn't be traumatizing one another by the millions a year with alcohol related violence and sexual perversion.

    I started smoking weed when i was 19 or 20, and I'm now 48. The problem I have with giving it up is that I just don't know how to enjoy life normally without it. I can usually go for a couple of weeks or a month without smoking anything before I just cave in and buy some more. It would perhaps be easier for me to quit if I could distract myself with other things, but my social life (and a desire to have one) vanished years ago. I keep thinking how cool it would be for me to get back into doing artwork and producing something that I can feel proud of, but beyond that I just can't visualise what it is exactly that I want to do with my life. Most of the time I just want to go to sleep and never wake up. And that's the big problem for me. I just don't know how to live. I never have done. I'm gonna be this way until the day I die, which fills me with absolute despair.
