Hey everyone! I was a bit reluctant to put out this video because I don't want people to think I am saying weed is "bad." At the same time I wanted to share my story in case it resonates. Much love!
I stopped 5 days ago, bc I was forced to (parents came to visit my apt and they don’t know I smoke) and I’m trying to keep it up since they left bc I know it’s putting this fog on me and affecting my life negatively. But god I’m so scared to stay sober. I’ve been smoking daily since April so it’s become the norm for me. It’s had so many positive benefits like opening my very closed mind, stress relief, sleep, mood regulation, etc. but now with school it’s hindering my work and I feel dumb and slow. I feel like the fog is starting to lift, but the cravings are intense and I’ve been more socially anxious and irritable since stopping. This is the longest I’ve gone without smoking since like March lol
The idea of not smoking is literally terrifying. I know deep down I’ve got to quit but I just can’t fathom it? I also have so much left that I don’t want to waste all that money by getting rid of it. God this is so hard
Man how much weed y'all smoking a day?! I smoke probably once or twice a day. A wake & bake, and then one before bed during my meditation session. Y'all must be chain smoking out here. I stay with energy, sleep like a baby too. Active in the gym and my day to day life. Everybody that I run into quitting weed normally are the ones abusing it or taking it in conjunction with other drugs & alcohol.
That sounds just like my story. Was on Adderall during high school, got off of it first year of college, got back on it when I realized how much it helped. But like you said the problem is, you can’t sleep. I’ve been taking 60 mg a day for as long as I can remember and I still have trouble sleeping on Monday. But here’s the bitch of the bunch, I have glaucoma. Three years ago I went totally blind and the doctors had me using weed which is the best medicine for any pressure related to the eye, but I abused the living shit out of it! Now I’m in a situation where I’d like to get back on my medication so that I can help me work, but I can’t handle the side effects. I work as an interpreter, and I need my head to be clear all the time. Plus being blind now, I don’t really have much going on at night. I’ve tried prayer, I’ve tried reading. But weed is the one thing that I know fucked my life up and I keep coming back to it. I sniffed heroin nonstop for a week and had zero problems with it, have you even seen her a couple of times these last few years. No issue whatsoever! Now with marijuana it’s a different story. I could be clean for two months, take one head off of a joint and wake and bake the next morning. I’m just a little bit lost right now. Stop your video at the one minute mark, hopefully can leave after writing this comment and watching the video with some peace of mind. If somebody sees this and can spare a prayer, I’d appreciate it. It’s not easy people
Moral of the story folks. Weed demotivates you. You start skipping classes/work. You can still smoke occasionally every now & then to relax, no biggie. However, It will still make you unmotivated, hungry, & just wanting to chill all day everyday. If you can moderate it & not just rely on it as an "emotional pick me up" it can be beneficial. BUT, if you’re trying to create the best version of yourself, you've got to kiss it goodbye!
Awesome video. I was a coke fueled, acid tripping, drunken speed freak till 17 years ago. I got clean by osmosis only because it stopped taking me up, and was tired of using just to be wide awake in a fetal position for days filling like shit. I do still drink, and smoke 1-2 times a week ( one hits only ) but, I know it’s time to al least pick up a sweet tea. I have a goal to get totally free of all. Alcohol is my nemesis at the moment. Not affecting my social, personal, or financial life but, my health is taking a hit. This video has given me a push to at least put the long neck down. Thank you for posting it.

if you can't manage a successful life and smoke weed, it is not for you. Simple as that
This video is awesome. The chart made it super easy to understand and its motivating
Saying I used to have ADHD is like saying I used to have downs syndrome. Like, wtf man!

So you only quit so people could stop judging you ?
Thank you for this, resonated with me very much

Potheads get so defensive & angry when someone mentions how marijuana negatively affected their life & how they've become happier without it.
"But bro, just moderate bro, weed cures depression bro"…
Too much of anything is bad. Including weed. They say its harmless. Yeah okay pal lol
