Dude i discovered your channel while I was trying to quit weed last year when you were quitting and now today is my day 1 trying to quit again and your video popped up. But I’ve relied on weed simple to avoid my emotions, the suck of life and now it’s all my brain wants. I’m happy your making videos everyday cause I can look forward to these as a daily checkin. We got this!!!!! 💪🏽
Dude! Welcome back to the channel and to sobriety! This is the 4th video I have made this year if you want to check some of them out! Thanks for the comment and I’m so proud of you for quitting!
@@DerLoller100 it’s her birthday today…. Maybe that’s a sign. Thanks so much for your positive outlook! And yes I’m sure there will be some days I miss. But I need to stay consistent as last time once I stopped I fell back off hard.
@@Quittingtogether I feel ok man. I’m sleeping ok, waking up few times in the night but getting sleep, I’ve taken on some bar work on my free nights for extra cash (drink isn’t an issue for me so this isn’t a risk) and less time alone to reduce relapse chances. Usually have a band practice on a Friday and im going to take few weeks off to reduce risk. Made loads of plans this weekend with friends and just trying to keep busy. Your videos really help man! You sound brighter each video and it feels each day you’re getting stronger, early days but we’ve got this!
@@sr-no7dl thanks so much for the encouragement. And I’m so glad you’re here! What instrument do you play?! And yeah I love my band mates but they all smoke and we are used to smoking together. Either way it’s gonna be okay and we got this!
@@Quittingtogether play guitar, it’s just a bit of fun and do love it but I’m committed to this path and therefore it has to just hold on until ready to get back to it. It’s 4:36am here and was asleep for 10pm last night, usually it’s 2am asleep and wake 10/11am after copious amounts of weed, new year, new sleep routines 😂
I think it's an amazing goal to be sober for a year and do a video a day. But when you said if you stop posting it means you fell of the wagon, I thought "gee, that's quite a bit of pressure to put on yourself." I would be careful not to feel too pressured to keep producing a video a day. Since your work on the videos and your personal work on sobriety are intertwined in this effort, there could be a danger of getting burnt out on creating videos and potentially just saying screw the whole project and get back to smoking weed. I also imagine that as you get further into this journey and have established some healthy sober habits and routines, you might want to move the idea of weed and sobriety into the background of your life, instead of it being a daily focus. I don't mean any of this to discourage you from creating videos, just wanted to share my thoughts. Keep up the good work man :)
Oh totally! If I miss a day it’s not a huge concern. If you see me go a week or 2 without and have not mentioned why that means I have started smoking again. This is my version of an “AA MEETING” in the sense that it has that same community aspect.
