[@marygranville7549]

@@CookWithStephh best wishes to you!!! You really CAN do it!! I never thought after smoking daily for 35 years, I’d ever be able to be weed free, yet here I am on day 91!!! & despite loneliness, loosing my grandad, relocating to San Diego where I know no one, a divorce from a diagnosed narcissist, no sex for damn near two years, complete isolation & turning the big 50 in January, I have never felt better! Lol felt like my life is in the season of a sad country song :) But My mind is clear, my appetite is normal, I’m less depressed, my breath smells better, have more energy & I’m not spending a fortune. Your first month will be difficult, you may have crazy dreams, insomnia, lack of appetite & cry more than usual, but it passes and will be well worth it. Be gentle with yourself, drink lots of water, eat light, go for walks, ride the waves of emotions & practice encouraging yourself with positive words. I also used GABA with L-theanine, 5000 iu of D3, and NAC 900 mg 2x per day as advised by a holistic Dr. to help with withdrawal & depression. detoxing from heavy news, watching stand up & listening to Jason Stephenson 8 hour meditations at night/during sleep to help my mind rest helped a lot too. Writing a pro/con list & writing reasons to stop on my mirror also helped. Researching the effects of weed on the body & Dr. Frank & Dr. Gabor Mate videos helped tremendously. The damage is rarely spoken of- especially in California & as a hip hop head where it’s “just part of the culture”. I know how hard it is to quit so Im VERY PROUD OF YOU for taking the leap towards the best version of yourself. Extend yourself grace if you relapse and then begin again. It’s the most loving thing I’ve ever done for myself. May you extend yourself the same love, you’re more than worthy & your future self will thank you. Sending you extra strength endurance & a hug. Congratulations You got this!!! 🙏🏽🤎😊

Starting to realize I really am chasing that feeling of smoking with my friends when we were younger but now I have no friends that smoke as much as me, doesn’t really feel like I have any friends at all…feels like everyone grew out of smoking and went on with their lives and I’m still stuck living in my teen years….even this past week I only spent like $83.00 on 3 joints and a vape and I’m mad at myself for wasting that money on a flower to burn up, thinking about all the other shit I could’ve did with that money, even it was something small like buying self development books Sometimes I quit for 175 days, sometimes 80 days, sometimes only 41 days like this last stint but everytime I return the regret is more and more, and everytime I come back I realize just how much brainwashing i have to do just in order to smoke….that first high always makes me feel sick and near the point of blacking out…but then when I get “low” or back to normal I feel below baseline and smoke again and BOOM I’m back in the cycle…. You should check out the book “the easy way to quit smoking” by Alan Carr…It talks about this brainwashing Anyways after This vape hopefully I can put down this segment of my life and stop smoking for good. Each time I return and have a bad high and see my life going the wrong direction it further stamps the need to stop smoking for good

This is the video that convinced me to quit cannabis. I was ready for whatever symptoms came my way. It’s day ten, and it’s been shockingly easy. I’ve had a little bit of irritability, a touch of insomnia, and absolutely wild dreams, but that’s it. I was vaping dry herb and occasionally using edibles, but no carts and rarely using concentrate, so I wonder if that’s part of why withdrawal has been so easy for me. Thank you for the motivation and encouragement your videos provide! After ten days of no use, I feel amazing. My motivation to do things is higher, thinking is clearer, energy is higher. My agoraphobia has almost entirely gone away and I feel an urge to leave the house, which hasn’t happened in three years. I didn’t realize how much regular cannabis use was impacting me. I am genuinely excited to live each day sober. For a while, cannabis was really fun and sparked my creativity, but it wore out its welcome when it was no longer worth the price I had to pay. Here’s to many more days with a clear mind and an energized heart!

After almost 8-10 years of smoking weed, i am on day 120 without any use of Thc, alcoholic or any kind of drug substances. I know it’s really hard especially when at the same time you have to deal with an arduous breakup. There has been 2 months now since i moved to another country which marijuana is legal (Netherlands) and at first it was really hard to ease the urge to smoke because even my roommate does it. The thing is that all the cravings have now gone, my issue seems to be more of psychological, of course I can’t blame weed for these feelings but it certainly affected them as it was a part of me for many years. Anyways I want to encourage you to keep going if you have quitted and to tell you that practicing meditation and exercise/eating clean helped me along the way.

Thank you so much for this channel and the videos you continue to upload! Your videos help me out a ton! Im currently on Day 3 i had my last smoke on sunday evening! Withdrawal has been awful however im following all your advice and i can say its 100% working! I'm so glad i finally feel understood and like im not going crazy! After weed, i plan to quit nicotine which i will be following your videos and advice for, so once again thank you so much!!! I would never of have the balls to try quit if it wasnt for this channel!

[@AddictionMindset]

Heck yes!!!! I am thrilled to have you as part of this community. Every one who struggles with addiction has all of the traits they need to quit. Grit, persistence, obsession, determination.... and the list goes on, you are simply using those traits to feed addiction vs overcome addiction. I know you got this!

[@juicybacon12]

congrats Rundink! I quit both and have stayed off both w the help of this channel as well. You can do it!

[@richardlawson6787]

You should have quit the nicotine first because nicotine is physically addictive but weed isn't...I'm on day forty and only symptom I had from weed cessation was a little aggravation...I've heard war stories about nicotine withdrawal

[@gradybroughton532]

This is great man, im on day 3 and needed this. So glad I came across your channel. Thank you for making these videos, seriously can't tell you how much it helps just to hear someone else talk about what im going through. Preach it!

Hey fam, did you manage to stay off it? Hoes the journey been

[@timehrler2686]

Day 10 today! Everything is getting better except the anxiety. I will perservere though; nothing will take me down at this point because I have so much to gain.

[@casperbelfort8508]

This video was perfect, thank you ! The irritability and anxiety is definitely the hardest part! I’ve never smoked during work where id always get anxious and irritated and it took me years to figure out that it’s daily withdrawals from weed, I definitely have a fear of public panic attacks and getting irritated by people cus that’s not who I am, im definitely gonna try the weighted blanket and read “why zebras don’t get ulcers”

[@AddictionMindset]

that is so often over looked, the fact that you are already facing withdrawals daily. So glad to hear you had that ah ha moment!

[@mariajeo8382]

Super excited #Doctorojie cured my hsv I promised to share your good work to the whole world .

[@fo0za954]

Week sober now after 20 years of daily weed/nicotine use. It was pretty rough the first 3 days but its getting better each day. Main thing im struggling with is sleeping, im wide awake and have a lot of energy. Im sure this will pass at some point just keep at it! Keep yourself busy and avoid getting bored is my best advice. Tell your friends and people around you that you stopped as well.

[@EvolvementEras]

So, after being “sober“ from other drugs, and now I am at the place to give up cannabis. Your videos are so incredibly helpful and I just wanted to give a shout out because I also shop at Wegmans.😅

[@grandagp7257]

47 years daily weed! 3hree weeks clean today! Love your channel!

[@jefferyhammons2245]

I literally cannot thank you enough for making this. I’m literally in tears suffering from this and your video gave me so much hope. Thank you so much❤ I had gotten out of the Marine Corps in 2022 and began smoking immediately. After a a year and a half of dabbing and smoking I experienced CHS and could not eat or drink for 4 days and was in the ER for 3 days…it hasnt been a week sober yet but im still struggling with no appetite and constant nausea. If you notice any of the warning signs please, please get help. CHS is absolutely no joke and should always be tackled right away.

[@gingersmudga3920]

Bro, I’m going through this same exact process right now! Today I was discharged from er, I’m struggling big time atm, tell me it gets better.

[@darrenchoveaux8266]

​@gingersmudga3920 hey brother, how you doing after a month later?

[@uzlen1]

I’ve been smoking almost everyday since 2019, I threw up acid bile & blood last Saturday and went to the ER, they did a X-ray said everything is fine but could be gastritis, GERD, etc. I stopped smoking everything, weed vapes, flower, nicotine vapes, and I noticed my symptoms got less worse since than I don’t throw up acid as much, my stomach burns less from the feeling of the acid in my stomach, it’s like I would over do it and smoke so much and my stomach would boil, quitting smoking was amazing i threw out my bongs, pens, grinders etc.

[@xrazerzx470]

5 weeks sober! Your Videos helped me alot through all of this shit! Greetings from Eastgermany!

[@Tobbi1994]

I woke up in a cortisol night sweat. Also having severe realizations on the state of my life that I repressed with THC. It's probably my biggest problem.

[@philiphillman720]

Thanks Dr. Frank, I’m 51 long term user, needed a change. Appreciate these videos, they make a ton of sense, with a sense of humor!

[@gagankochar3]

Something unusual happened after I quit weed. Previously, if I didn’t have weed by nightfall, I’d make sure to get some before all the outlets closed, and my heart would race. Now, even thinking about smoking again makes my heartbeat increase. I’m genuinely scared of going back to it. I’m 14 days into quitting, and on my 13th day, I slept soundly for 12 hours without weed after seven years of continuous use.

[@AnnoyedSandcastle-qc1fd]

I think weed is bad for your heart because I experience the same thing brother you are not alone it's happening to me as we speak.

[@johncartwright4041]

My wife and I have been using your videos to steer us through our son's problems with withdrawl. He is having significant problems with nausea and diarrhoea and we are concerned because he quit 4 weeks ago. Does anyone know why the nausea and vomiting are lasting so long ? The videos help him as well as us. Keep up the good work and have a good year in 2022.

[@pressure-716-2]

Is he feeling better now? Im 16 and recently quit smoking weed 7 days ago struggling to eat at all it’s giving me extreme nausea hoping the end is in sight havent eaten more than a few minuscule bites of a meal here and there (typically only once or twice a day) for 4 days this shit is rough hope your son is doing well

[@caliidaydreaming369]

Any advice on heart palpitations? The times I’ve tried to quit weed I had very bad palpitations at night that accompanied my insomnia. I want to stop using weed but I’m dreading the heart palpitations

[@Javier.Williams]

Day 1 for me 🎉

[@sethlinton60]

Its to the point I have no choice but to quit whether i enjoy it or not the health effects I am having I can no longer ignore. This is the only thing im clinging too so tightly

[@chicoflowers1523]

Also can’t you taper down on what you consume for a less miserable withdrawal?

[@foodcraven97]

Yes. I was slowly and unconsciously lowering my dose of weed carts down for the last few weeks, and last night I finally said I’m done and threw it away. I’m almost at 24 hours and so far so good!

[@tyronepetit5677]

Day 3 for me, 25 years addiction. Painful but still growing strong 💪

Day 7 here! The insomnia and anxiety is honestly the worst for me right now. But this video is very comforting. Thank you

[@ENnarion-9rl]

I already had problems sleeping even before I started smocking and the stomach pain is the worse when I quit was so bad I had to go emergency room cause the pain was so much.

[@billswigart9963]

Dr. Frank I can't thank you enough for this video. I've been an off and on weed smoker since I was 14 years old, I am now 50. Since weed became legal in Ca. 2016 I started vaping it hard core everyday all day. for the past 2 years I've been trying to quit only to fail due to nausea and vertigo. I am 5 days in on quitting right now and have been sick as hell (no vomiting thank God). I just tried the ginger tip for the nausea and it's working. I will probably watch this video over and over till I'm free. I've looked up a lot of videos and this was the best most informative I have found! I'm gonna subscribe and check out more of your vids! God bless and have an awesome day.

[@autumn5852]

Depressed 😳 I want to kill myself 😭 I literally can’t think of anything I’d rather do than shoot up a needle full of H, even though I haven’t smoked that for about 22 years, but I’d rather do that than have another joint, I’m done, over 40 years of daily smoking is more than enough. I’m not going to do anything today, I’ll ride it out today. This is only day 5, so I think I can give it a more time to give a chance. I don’t feel as nauseous today and I’ve had some toast, so that’s an improvement, so maybe I’ll give it more time

[@adrianvang4560]

[@kathrynkij5979]

I’ve been using Kava Kava around dinner time for sleep, and magnesium spray. Everyone should be doing magnesium, because we are all deficient, but is the Kava Kava ok? Also the weighted blanket does help! First few nights I couldn’t “sink into the bed” to sleep if you know what I mean, the weighted blanket helps you sink in so you can succumb to sleep. Also I’ve been doing bone broth in the morning, because one it’s hard to get myself to eat first thing, and two if you drink bone broth first thing on an empty stomach, it will help heal your gut.

[@cleopatra1373]

These symptoms are spot on! When u started with the insomnia I was like "yeah true". Then u hit with the nausea/dehydration and malnutrition and I was totally relating to that, But.. When u said "Next I want to talk about headache".. God I get all of that, I had to pause it because it was to real to actually see other people struggling too. I'm planning on starting college soon. I want to be able to learn and perform 100% and actually not hermit in a corner of class until day is done. I'm deciding on dental hygienist starting as dental assistant or information technology which are both different. I want to see who I really am before I pick a career and make better decisions. Weed really is a prison if used wrong. I love me sober more. ☺️ Thank u so much for talking about this openly and encouraging and motivating me and everyone else who See's or seeks help.

[@PrisonJunky]

@@myman8278 I would give physical issues at least 30 days. that's about when the withdrawals turned. the psychological withdrawals might last longer if you used strong concentrates and edibles. to be honest it wasn't as bad as quitting caffeine and coffee. it was horrible really jacked up my digestive system. more physical than mental. weed was more mental for me. make sure to eat even if it's a small meal exercise as most as your body will let you. stay hydrated. use a water intake app to help remind you how much to drink daily. meditation it's a must. for reals. day 64 no weed. day 50 no caffeine.
