Thoughts on Marijuana Addiction… part 1

[@rowdyrobbyrider4226]

The problem with smoking a lot is it puts you in a content state. You smoke every day, look forward to just chilling and smoking. Next thing you know years fly by and you’re stuck in the same place.

Self discipline, and you will enjoy this. Helps too if you're financially in a good place.

I used to live in my parents house but now I got my own. Used to get rides all the time and walk everywhere. Got my own ride had 4 so far and traded each and my own insurance with no co signs paid in full. Smoked bud daily since 14 and saw my friends use coke meth and alcohol and die young. Weed kept me sane in a crazy world. Also sold weed since the age of 13 so i know reggies like an old buddy. 10 grams for 20 until 2008 when kush was popping. People who owned businesses I was selling weed to as a kid, worked hard 8-10hours a day before I knew what a job was and all they wanted was weed to sleep. 14 year old me learned why coke is a staple in the alcohol community and why some people developed sleep deprivation. But why people kept buying weed was for sleep. As I got older people were robbing each other for weed. So I got out the game at the age 19 and got a job. And realized how much my check would go to kush from local plugs like 120-140 an Oz when the dispensary sells half Oz for 45$ . So my local plugs started going broke because they were inflating prices being greedy, then out came the carts, and people started getting sick. Remember, it's about being comfortable in your skin, not in someone else's eyes

@lazz419 I never mentioned different strain. By the sounds of your response, if anybody could use weed, it's you.

Honestly, I'm in the same place. I haven't smoked for a week, but I've been craving it everyday. It's hard as hell, because I've also gone months without it, and life truly felt better for a while than just smoking everyday. My mentality has always been I don't want to quit because this stuff helps with my PTSD, but it doesn't help for daily functioning. When I've used it in purely that medical aspect, I found it was a good balance for me. But, that balance always turns into a dependency again. It's a constant cycle that perpetuates itself into something I don't want to become. I know I have the ability go without it through sheer willpower, but that willpower can easily diminish when my stressors come into play. Weed genuinely helps me avoid a panic attack, it allows me to keep my breath in that state, but it always comes back to bite me. You're a pretty introspective and self aware person, I don't see many people coming forward and sharing these thoughts. This video was extremely relatable, and it meant a lot to me as I have been smoking almost daily aside from a few breaks for around 5 years. I really listened to what you had to say, and applied it to my own thought process, and realized that maybe this isn't the best thing for me. I wish you the best on your journey, as I understand how difficult this is to go through, especially all the side effects like my derealization worsening, feeling irritable, cravings, the list goes on. You got this man, we can break free from the substances that we realize are damaging to our lives.

We were bored in the 90s. Now we have the internet. That fills in the no weed time now

[@shanestahl2771]

3 months off Fentanyl for me. It started with weed at 10 years old and escalated slowly over my life. You are incredibly self aware and very intelligent but you can't think your way out of addiction. Go to a few different local AA or NA meetings. The way you describe your experience I can tell right away your an addict. But remember using drugs or alcohol is just our way of self medicating the underlying issues we have. Drugs are just a band aid solution and the real problems continue to get worse while other problems manifest along the way. Therapy is necessary to work through these issues along with a good support system of people looking out for your best interest and/or AA or NA

[@Dahgfyt]

my man shane you are a warrior 🏆, this will stick with me. I appreciate you.

[@ljbomberplays1273]

Congratulations on quitting nicotine for almost 2 years man that shits rough I wanna see your progress keep us updated

[@Szhortz]

If you smoke weed for a very long time the thought of wanting more will never go away nomatter how much you try , you just have to let it be I don't know how to put this but it gets to the point where it is one with your life , now you trying to remove it from your life when you've had it for so long is not worth the pain that you will suffer during the rest of your time living you still need it one way or another wether that is a year from now 2 years from now however long you will come back to it and the same goes for nicotine , people make themselves suffer because they believe being sober will make your life better than it is now but that's just not the case weed nicotine whatever it doesn't control your life you do and you can still have it just don't get stuck on the thought which you think it does control you , anyways to sum this up you're better off smoking it because you will die with or without it and having it for so long the pain is just not worth it considering you're already a quarter of the way through your life I promise you it's not worth giving it up , just remember it's not the weed it's YOU

you'll get those symptoms from not eating a day, not eating sugar, not having caffeine , not being on tik Tok or KZbin, playing the devils flute and everything are body gets used to but I get wanting to not smoke. I see weed as a tool for workaholics or people with ptsd or ocd to relax for a week and not work or to forget thing that plague your mind and cause you not to be able to live life. or pain but I think better medicine for that and stretching.

[@nunya-b3b]

I wanna quit but I feel like it’s permanently in my brain and I need it to feel Alr when. I don’t smoke I feel more of everything and everything rn ain’t it what can I do to get out and ever since I’ve tried to stop my stress has been worse and I feel like it makes it worse
