ONE MORE TIP im quitting weed now, did it before one time 6 months, maybe not suitable for first weeks but u can do it if u stay hydrated as fuck, sauna! sauna make your body relaxed like a similar feeling as smoking and also when im in the sauna i dont feel the fogginess at all as much, more clarity, and also a bit after. i smoke ciggarettes but i think if i didn smoke after sauna the clarity will hold longer. And sauna is shown to relieve stress as fuck which u have the first weeks, i still do after 5 weeks but sauna helps alot, also giving will power because u can feel clarity and it makes u think about what u going to have in the future if u keep on quitting

Lots of encouraging words on here. 🙏 Haven’t seen anyone say this: THC stores in your fat. So when you exercises or go into ketosis, the THC is released into your bloodstream. I can feel it kick into a body high when I exercise. My loss of appetite has caused me to lose a lot of weight, and I didn’t have much to lose. The stomach cramps and joint and lower back pain are awful. So I’m not only fighting the cold turkey withdrawals, but the continual release of THC into my system from my fat stores. I also quit sugar at the same time, so I’m burning the THC laced fat in turbo mode. Ready to get this behind me! Never again!

thank you. I've used thc for sleep not smoking it. I started to go off slowly about a mo ago and that's when Ive had such severe sleep and concentration issues plus a buncha neuro symptoms. Going crazy but will keep on. Need encouragement because my husband who has Asperger's has never said one kind thing to me about this in the year I've been suffering through this, just criticizes me and says things like "it would help if you didn't lay around all day." When I started having neuro symptoms, I didnt realize for almost a year that it's related to THC; only realized that it wasn't helping me anymore so I thought why bother? Wow. I've had 75 medical appts in the last year including chiro and 27 acupuncture visits to no avail. My GP just told me I have a hyperactive thyroid which of course was wrong; then he referred me to nobody. I went to many kinds of specialists on my own. One dr. said "God wants you to suffer more; do you meditate 4 hrs/day?" I don't trust drs anymore. I went to ER twice. This has cost me in the thousands, the least of my concerns. Only those that go through this understand.

Yesterday was my 5/6th day and my goodness. I cried all the way into this morning because of suppressing my emotions of depression and unhappiness with weed/alcohol so i definitely recommend to just CRY, release those stress hormones. However earlier in that day, i smoked these lil weed stems i had left with tobacco and tbvh it just did not do it. Made me feel worse and I’m sure contributed to my then very low feeling last night/early morning. I couldn’t sleep my dreams were so vivid/lucid. I went to church this afternoon and just prayed like a hour ago to ask God for help and peace and remove these attachments. No lie, y’all I’m the middle of praying and as i type this, i feel very at peace/no anxious feeling or like so sure of God listening, idk exactly how to articulate it. Please just take it one day at a time, PRAY and be patient with yourself and TRUST yourself that you can absolutely make it 💯

They did all the cardiac tests, ekg, bloodwork, X-ray and everything came back good. As for the other symptoms I had/have them all as I’m on day four and feeling a bit better. Night sweats, insomnia, loss of appetite, nausea, diarrhea, skin felt like it was crawling. Thank you for these videos as they have given me hope and has eased my anxiety.

Sup guys my name is chris, ive been stoned almost everyday for 2 almost 3 years and its time my journey with weed ends. In my time smoking i found passions and hobbys and creativity. with time you realize everything you can be or feel is there without weed . and then you notice how comfortably uncomfortable you become and then it becomes stressful relapsing when you do quit. Trust me your will power is still there but deep down you need to find what is true to you and if deep down your old self is calling for a quit then listen and listen hard. Think of the two different voices you here when you decide to smoke and ask yourself... Is old you deep down speaking or is it today you with a weed dependants? All thats left is to choose what part of you in which youll listen too. Trust me ive had my fair share of relapse for years now and im done. Im sick of falling back into what i dont want truly and pretending im okay with it. This. Is. The. Time. I change. 3 days in and when i sleep tonight it will be for. I know what is in store for me with withdrawal but now i choose to embrace it. To those who read this far thank you and i will reply with updates on this journey of mine.

I think as a doctor you should shed light on some of the more obscure and hardcore physical effects of marijuana withdrawal such as skyrocketing blood pressure, debilitating panic attacks, and severe heart palpitations with or without activity. To me and so many others these issues are the most pertinent and scary to deal with yet most of the medical literature available barely mentions these issues.

@@instinctmlbb757 I personally did not deal with insomnia. I’m not sure why, I’ve just never had trouble sleeping. Even without weed. I’d say it took about 3 weeks to feel somewhat normal but I still crave it every now and then. A huge part of cannabis addiction is mental in my opinion. Once you get past the mental aspect it’s very easy to quit. I still love weed and am grateful for the good times it gave me, but smoking every single day just kills the magic. And smoking everyday for me atleast led to weed giving me extreme anxiety and just not doing what I wanted it to anymore. The biggest benefit to quitting weed is your mood becomes much more stable and I like not having to depend on a substance to be happy. I wish you luck on your journey. It may seem hard and it is hard. But it is easier than you think and the benefits far outweigh the momentary uncomfortableness.

Reading a book is a good tip, but people need to make sure it's not Kindle or on a screen. They need to be holding an actual book where the pages are turned.

Some things I feel that helped me with insomnia was avoiding eating anything with sugar at night, making sure to go outside and get some sun light for your cercadia rhythm , and meditation are all things that helped me through my own insomnia. Also sleeping at a lower temperature of 60-68 F. Meditation is great for when your feeling down or “cloudy”. There’s some great habit changing/addiction focused guided meditations if you just give KZbin a search. If I can do it so can you ✨

I stopped smoking when my dog passed away. He was my everything 😢, I realized that my emotions and Anxiety were way too strong to handle on weed. I decided to deal with my emotion sober. First thing I did I adopted another dog to help me deal with my grief. I had week of incredible Anxiety, Insomnia, I was taking showers 3-4 times a day and changing my clothes 3-4 times a day but it was easier to go through becasue I have this little puppy I have to take care of. Now I am a week clean and my Anxiety is so much lower, I started eating and getting hungry, and I wanna sleep literally all the time without any sleep medications. Sometimes we need a help with our emotions to not need weed. It’s goes easier now, I feel more alive without weed. Next thing I will do is therapy. I am sad that I Lost my baby but he helped me overcome my weed adiction. I had this huge need to deal with it sober. Good luck to all of you guys 💖

You left out the insanely vivid dreams that seem to be quite common! I'm an addict of over 15 years and have tried quitting a handful of times for various reasons. I finally had enough and am done with it, being middle-aged and extremely unsatisfied with where I am in life. I'm 30 days out (longest span ever), and I quite enjoy the nightly excursions, though some have been intense. Also been taking mugwort for insomnia recently, and that definitely ramped them up a bit to say the least. Lucid dreams out the ass.
@brunotondato4947 Жыл бұрын
I couldn’t enjoy life without being high. And without moderation, it only gets worse. Quitting was the best decision of my life, but it was hell for 5 days. I lost 10 pounds in a week when I only weighed a buck forty, and couldn’t sleep right either. I smelled like a barn by the end of every day from the sweating, and was in a crappy mood. The worst is over and it can be for you too. The best way to stop thinking about addiction is by playing an instrument, writing, reading, drawing, chewing gum, or thinking about loved ones. The dark clouds will leave eventually, so I don’t know why I didn’t start sooner.

I can still taste the weed/THC in my mouth and in my tongue. When I "smack" my mouth, like I am tasting something, it tastes just like I just smoked a big fatty five minutes ago. I'm not joking nor bragging. I just had no idea. The last time I tried to quit, it took 5 months for me to test positive on a at home drug test - the line was always bight red. The force is strong within my fat cells. I had my first dream today while sleeping - it's been about 5 years since I can remember having a dream.

Have you heard of yoga nidra? It’s a set procedure, you lie down on the floor and follow the instructions of the voice recording, and it’s always the same, it takes you through the same relaxation points and it’s the only way to experience genuine relaxation, beyond what even sleep can give us. I’m going to build it in to my daily routine and do it each evening, I think it takes about half an hour so not too long and you’re supposed to try and remain awake throughout the process, but that takes practice and I haven’t mastered that yet but even when we fall to sleep, we still get benefits. It might be worth trying 🤷🏽♀️. But super super well done, we know it’s not easy but from your experience of quitting, it is most definitely worth it 🥰😍🥰❤️ keep up the good work and the best of luck with all your endeavours, although if you can do all this and quit weed, there’s no doubt that you came stamped successful ❤️ you go girl 💪🏽💥🌟 I’m looking forward to loosing a few pounds and eating like a normal person instead of like I’m eating for a whole family 😆

I took lots of hot baths to help with joint and muscle aches and Benadryl and ibuprofen (out of Tylenol) for pain, once or twice a day Benadryl for insomnia and nausea. Stoped drinking coffee (afraid of worsening of diarrhea) and ate bland food like rice and chicken breast with chicken broth and bananas. My withdrawal symptoms lasted approximately 5-7 days. I’d made sure I was well hydrated by drinking plenty of fluid during this time.

Quitting any substance addiction is extremely difficult, so don't let anybody tell you that quitting cannabinoids is or should be easy. Any addiction can ruin your life from marijuana to gambling to heroin, it's the mindset, not the specific substance. I quit heroin and crystal meth five years ago and I was an absolute mess when I was using. I remember that I just wanted to rip my hair out and scream during the peak of the withdrawals, but I pushed through and made it out stronger than ever. Make sure you tell someone that you trust or love because it is much easier when you have someone that you can lean on. If I can do it, then you can do it! I promise that it gets better, just hang in there. Take it one day at a time, even one hour or one minute at a time if you have to. You got this!

I’ve experienced quite a bit of weight loss and the insomnia sucks but was able to sleep 6 hours last night. I have so much hope that quitting will help me live a higher quality life. I have been using CBD ONLY just because my anxiety has been so extreme. It helps a bit. Also going to get some magnesium today.

I had depersonalization for about a month after I quit thc (carts) and I'm only now starting to get back to normal. Immediately after I quit it felt like I was viewing my life as if I were a video game avatar. Nothing truly felt real. I didn't feel like myself. I lacked empathy. I couldn't get joy or satisfaction from anything. I'd be driving in my car and I felt myself disassociate in a way, it was as if my sense of touch went out the window like I was in a conscious sleep state. I drove correctly, but it was almost like I forgot I was driving. I had to invest all of my focus in-order to feel safe beings the wheel. Mind you I was sober. I also recall early on that other people's faces gave me the creeps, strange to say. As if I didn't know how to process the face of a stranger. It gave me anxiety. Normally I'm a very socially confident person, I enjoy talking to and getting to know most people. So that was another thing that scared me. It became a miserable existence. I also experienced relentless insomnia, angry outbursts, and I tended to isolate myself from friends and family. I initially started using weed frequently at the end of high school out of pure boredom and admittedly as a coping mechanism for the lack of human social interaction I was receiving. For a while I was scared I wouldn't return to normal for a long time...but now well after a month of quitting I see a light at the end of this lonely dark tunnel. If you're struggling to quit, just know these symptoms will go away. Sleep when your body allows. Don't stress if you can't sleep. I still consider closing your eyes and relaxing your body rest, its better than scrolling on your phone all night isn't it? And even then during the day if you feel tired, sleep. If weed is such a miracle substance it shouldn't have these effects on your body. We need to learn to be comfortable facing our emotions with a sober mind. I hope my dopamine levels restore themselves soon. I've noticed they've began to increase weeks after my last session. Somethings that helped me out alot: Staying away from social media. It made me feel angry about various political situations that I'm powerless in, and as a result it made my mind spiral in either a fit of anxiety or rage. Exploring various new hobbies. I recently began gardening and I've only now realized how much I love nature and the beauty that comes with it. Get out into the natural world. Go for a walk in a local park at low traffic times. The peace and solitude of the natural world helped me feel more connected to the earth and I feel helped me reconnect with my soul. Right now it's -40 outside so I can't exactly do that, but once spring comes I'm definitely starting back up, even when I'm months deep into sobriety. Try staying out if the house, and if you're early in your recovering process find activities that minimize human interaction. I found those tips worked for me very well. Just know that the sensations you feel aren't perminent. I know right know all might feel hopeless, but I'm telling you this as a friend practically pleading with you that it will get better. Allow your brain to heal. When we're feeling ill we can't expect to snap our fingers and make the fever go away. We simply rest and take care of our body so we can feel well again. Treat the quitting process the same, only this time your body is your brain. Right now I can proudly say Im starting to feel joy once again. Not in the big things but the small things. A cup of coffee, a nice sunset, what have you. My brain is still healing but I'm beginning to reap the results of my discipline and I know you can achieve the same.

Day 38 for me and waking each night is the worst symptom by far after decades of chronic daily use. I'm writing this at 3:30am! Had a lot of sweats but this has mostly subsided. Still a bit short tempered but getting better. I quit because I was having all these symptoms BEFORE I quit and I was fed up.

@@spicytruth8721 I am doing great! Had a relapse of 4 mos after being clear 104 days and that sucked as I was right back to daily use within 3 days. A lesson learned (I hope!) that I must be extra careful at extra stressful times. I stopped again though and am at 187 days so far and resolved to stay the course. Still have the odd day when weed pops up in my mind but not seriously. I still struggle with some sleep issues and mood ups and downs but I believe this is more what I medicated myself with weed for rather than symptoms of weed withdrawal. I listen to audio books a lot or sleep hypnosis on KZbin using a Bluetooth mask/headphones (you can sleep on your side) and this helps a lot! Best wishes to you and if you are trying to quit don't give up!

the insomnia was so hard for me.. even tho I only smoked once a day.. the sweating was disgustin too.. but after like 10 days everything is gone. not feeling like starting again cuz of that.. even tho I do regular tolerance breaks. Green Tea, lots of fruits and being outside helped me a lot edit: friend of mine who smoked much more than me had a much easier time than me.. I think it is because he's like 6% body fat, while I'm at 15%.. he had like zero withdrawal symptoms.. crazy

third time taking a T-Break; past 2 times i got chills, insomnia and stomach problems. My recommendations of things to do if you know you will be quitting: 1) Eat before you smoke. Do this a week prior to quitting is you can. You want your body to get acquainted with the idea of not needing to smoke in order to eat 2) Melatonin. Don't go heavy with this stuff; You're not suppose to take it for longer than a month straight since it can aggravate the mental challenges withdrawals put you through 3) Gatorade or Liquid IV. If your like me, your going to be spending a considerable time on the Toilet or Sweating through your sheets. Keep yourself well hydrated above all else. 4) Smoothies: Your body is gonna require hella nutrition but you probably won't be able stomach anything. Avoid real milks as it can make things worse (for some); i recommend Coconut milk. Pack your smoothies with greens and supplements for nutrients 5) Get i the habit of going on walks. This literally saved my life. After the second time i quit, my depression got worse. I wanted to end it. Going on walks got me out of that headspace at least for a little while. kept me sane. 6) Bonus tip: MA meetings are great, they host them on the hour everyday. Great to surround yourself with people that understand what you're going through. You're stronger than you think and more importantly; You're not alone. We have all been in this situation and you will get through it. Take it a day at a time. Believe in yourself! you can do it! 😉

Not to mentions the amount of dreams/nightmares are still an ongoing issues as well. If I would have know weed could mes a person up in the ways it does I would have never started this bad habit!

I’m at the end of day 5. I’ve had symptoms of pins and needles in my hands, my heart will before I try to sleep start pounding hard. If you too have these symptoms for the heart pounding Ive been using meditation videos on KZbin which helps it calm down. For the pins and needles, ride it out. Nothing bad is really happening and it will stop at some point. Hope this helps
