My moment to quit was when I didn't enjoy the high anymore. I got anxious and couldn't stand people when high, I quit 3 years ago. No more for me, never ever again. I miss it sometimes, but knowing how it made me feel at some point that feeling fades like snow on a hot day. Hang in there guys!
I smoked nearly daily for 2 years and I’m currently on day 7 and I feel fine, not much irritation or loss of appetite etc. but my question is if I smoke a gram tomorrow then wait another week and smoke again will this be fine and will I still feel better? Thanks.
@@YaNansCrustyToe wait 3 months lol I’ve always smoked a blunt on the second week of abstinence with this mindset and just ended up back where I was at. Rather quit now bro you’ve only smoked for 2 years the more you smoke the worst the withdraws get.
You still going? I’m on day 10 right now. I’ve quit before, but this time I’m quitting from carts and not bud, wayyy fucking worse. But the mind clarity is coming back
Day 5 in my sobriety. Couldn’t eat much the first 3 days. Appetite slowly coming back, not thinking about it constantly as much. My stress levels are still fairly high but I’m doing my best adapting by staying busy. My depression isn’t as bad as it was the first 3 days which were hell but I keep focusing on my goals of getting a better job and making my life better. After 20 years of heavy usage I never thought I’d be here but I’m here and I’m excited to see how much of my potential I can live up to.
Smoked the MJ for 14 years. Stopped cold turkey 6 days ago. The first 4 days were the worst. Bouts of crying and emotional instability. Hardly any sleep whatsoever. Woke up today and felt a lot better. Tried to quit once before, didn't work out. This time I'm pushing through, there is no going back, I've wasted years of my life while always knowing I have so much more potential. Like this comment so I can keep coming back to it ❤ stay strong guys, we got this!!
i'm on my first week.. i just flused a quater oz down the toilet and i never felt better. Emotionally i'm a total mess. I can barely get through the day without losing my marbles. Watching your video and seeing your conviction gives me strength. I will be able to do this. This will be a new me - after 33 years of heavy heavy usage, things are not easy. Right now I'm just aiming for that 90 days.
My hobbies made the difference, I just couldn’t focus while I was smoking. Now all I think about is getting better at what I love doing and that’s the good old classic hobbies.
I’m on day 4 and can’t stop crying. I’m emotionally fine but I can’t stop crying. I’m going to keep pushing through. Thank you for this video, it gives me hope to know that tomorrow should be better than today. Today sucked. Irritable, quiet, emotional rollercoaster. I don’t even want to text people back but I don’t want to be alone. I can’t tell anyone because I feel like I’m going to be judged by those who do t understand why it’s so hard and have never been through this. But this video gives me so much hope. As someone with bipolar and adhd on anti depressants but have been smoking for 3 years while taking them I feel...off. Off in a way that I’ve never felt before. But it gets better, I believe it will. I’m 4 years clean from coke and I forget I ever did it because I went through 4 months of inpatient for that. I’m quitting weed without anyone knowing, but there are people who have made it through what I feel now. I’m grateful for this video.
I'm on day three. I'm a wreck. Started jumping rope after a video came across the feed just to kill time and wear my body and mind out. Hope you made it.
Usually I prefer to read comments, but I want you to know that smoking and intake of weed is trap to keep us stagnant, and slaves We can do it, you can do it Sis.
I used to smoke for 4 years like 2 grams a day . The last year I used to smoke 2-5 grams a day . Now I'm already 1 week without smoking weed and I'm feeling better . I see colors richer and I started to enjoy Hobbys I haven't done for over 2 years . I'm happy I quit smoking weed
Same man, was at about 3-4 grams a day for a good six years and another two years prior to that but not so heavy when I first started. There are so many benefits, life becomes more vivid and alive, instead of floating by. Glad you made the right decision! If there's anyway I can help you please just let me know. Stay strong =-)
@@BetterYouNow hey man I know you've got a busy life now but im thinking of quiting tommorow and i got the melatonin and valerian & I was just wondering what specifically helped you? I cannot remove it from my environment, prefer not to say why, and I just struggle not having 1 hit. I just fell off after three months and im just lost all over again. Any advice? you were a godsend when i first found you six months ago. Please get back to me, Thanks.
@@techsprint4122 quit a fair few times since then & recently too. Have got now a job so things have changed in regards to smoking all day everyday but, its just when I weigh up the pros and cons, weed makes the day-to-day much more difficult on the physical side. Cbd oil however has worked thankfully. Good luck to you.
After 20 years clean and sober, I decided that weed was the answer to my arthritis pain. I smoked or rather vaped for about a year. I had a gallbladder attack and I quit after surgery. I threw out my weed and my vape. That was about three months ago. No problemo.
Love your motivation. Day #4 here. Quitting smoking weed amongst other bad habbits cold turkey. Its been rough but I know I can do this and I got this!
@@BetterYouNow My pleasure, thank you! Typhlosion has always been my favourite pokémon :) I've watched a ton of videos about the withdrawel symptoms from quitting weed and I have to conclude that yours is the most inspiring for me. Ill be watching this video daily in my process. It really helps!
Nice video man, struggling with that shit right fucking now at 4 am. This is my fourth day and I have eaten like twice since I quit. Cannot sleep, cannot eat, cannot feel any nice feeling.
Doing great! Actually little too good, life totally changed around for the better and now am growing comfortable lol! Maybe should make more videos about different life topics
Thanks very much man, I'm on day 10 sober and can't wait for that 90 days mark to reflect back and say wow I did it. i know will appreciate quitting weed big time.
How are you doing brotha! Wanting to check on you and see if we're still doing good and progressing to that 90 day mark. If you've relapsed it's ok, just start tomorrow over again. Throw everything out, and remove the person or thing which caused you to fall back into old bad habits. Environment is most important, create an environment for yourself which weed is not accessible. Just remember the saying, out of sight out of mind, because it's very true!
Hey man sorry to intrude but did you make it? I fell off after 3 months and now ive got melatonin, valerian, and i was wondering what specifically helped you? Im thinking of trying tommorow. Please get back to me, thanks.
It sounds more like you have a problem and cannot recognize it. That's a lifetime of smoking, you never had a problem putting it down but you're still a smoker so more like you've taken some tolerance breaks and came right back.
Gosh I get this all the time actually, need to be making videos and just talking, have learned and became so much wiser and articulate since these videos. Maybe will start a new channel and start fresh
I don't know what you were smoking or how much but my father died in79 and that's when my friends introduced me to weed. Even though it was mexican dirt weed. No such thing as hydro then.. lol I have stopped 2 times in my life for 9 months. I found no problems quitting at those times. Weed has opened my mind 10x more than if I had never started smoking. It has made me a very creative person. But the time has come for me to quit again. This time for my health. After some time if stopping doesn't fix my health then I will have to say weed is not the reason for my health issues and will start back up again. The only bad things I have about quitting is my sleep cycles will be interupted. I have been getting exactly 6 hours of sleep for over 15 years, hopefully quitting will make me sleep more to get back my r.e.m. sleep. I dont like dreaming so i expect that will come back too. I really dont have any physical withdrawl symptons from quitting, all I know is my life is 10x better with weed then without it. I can control so much more of my life when I smoke because it allows me to use alot more of my subconscious brain to control all my emotions. Without weed, less control and happiness, with weed life it sooooo much better.
You need motivation but it has to be real ,for me after twenty years of smoking everyday I wanted to ride motorcycles again ,got the bike so every time I wanted a smoke I would look at the bike and use that as my motivation so far three months later everything is going great,it’s hard but you can do it
Day 5.. I’ve smoked for years and have never stopped till this week.. Not hungry or thirsty. Nauseous when I try to eat. I force feed myself to drink water and eat. I can’t sleep so I’ve been taking 10m melatonin. Still doesn’t even help fall asleep. When I do sleep I swear sooo bad. I’m not on edge I’m starting to believe I can do it.
@@mr.sushi2221 haven’t smoked since, i stopped taking melatonin, started giving me nightmares and weird dreams. After about 2 weeks in it gets easier with everything. Don’t think about it as much. I did notice a few changes in myself after 30 days in, I was thinking better.. like remembering stuff easier. I wasn’t thinking about wanting to smoke. Gave away our collection to help prevent me from smoking again. June 3rd was the last time i smoked.
On my second day wow this time the hardest not putting myself through this again been smokeing weed since I was 11 I'm 38 now need a fresh start back in the gym and going to live a better life for myself and the people I love brain has been fogged out for to long godbless everyone on their journey
@@daviddepre1954I'm doing well did start again after 6 months am about 5 weeks off it again yes it does make you feel better it's just all about what else is going on in your life sometimes smoother then others hope you succeed on your journey godbless you
For everyone that’s wondering how to harness the inner power within each of us, this factor is heavily overlooked and if done correctly, may give you the strength and ability to conquer anything in your life. Retain your sexual energy.
Thank you for the comment! Please, keep commenting. The social interaction helps the channel grow and I'm so appreciative for your help, Politically Correct Individual. Glad to have you here part of our little community. :) See you in the next video my friend! If there's a topic you'd like me to cover or think would be helpful than please let me know.
I made my peace w weed like I did w alcohol, I’ll have it when I have it, but went cold turkey. I had to be realistic, and leave the door open for the maybe once in a blue moon, if ever. It took around 1 week for my appetite to come back w a vengeance. Insomnia got better around week 2, weird dreams and very irritable still but not close to the rage I had the first 4 days. I fasted for 3 days at the start, drank lots and lots of water. Got into doing projects around the house till I was beyond fatigued. I did a lot. Lost 5lbs. Anyway, week 3, and it’s gotten better, I’m not as angry and even though I’ve had the chance to relapse I’ve refused to, I plow right through sleepless days. Meh, I won’t die. Once you’re “sober” it’s easier to stay off it and make better decisions. I smoked pre rolls, maybe 6 grams a moth, no alcohol, no pills, nothing else, and it’s been a rough ride. People are a lot stronger and resilient than we give ourselves credit for. It can be done, peeps. Things are better off in moderation anyway. Good luck, sorry for the long rant.
Today is day 6. I have had some insomnia. My appetite decreased. The worst part has been the emotional rollercoaster. Either rage or sadness. I hope today is better. Garlic pills helped me sleep but I had to take about 3000mg. I smoke for about 18 years so I expect it to take a little longer.
I am on day 3 I am 38 large male and I am having problems eating from nausia. I have IBS. I have also been suffering headache behind my right eye all day today. I have thought about using CBD but I am stopping smoking drinking and cigarettes all at same time because I am trying to save more money and trust god. This is not easy. I am suffering from random crying on day 2. I feel okay but cant get comfortable. I might have to use CBD oil so I dont smoke again. I dont want to go back... I want to have more confidence and not feel like a loser anymore. I forgot to mention I have been experiencing cold chills and diareah so I have zero sugar power aid and vitamin water.
just believe in yourself you can do it it's gonna be hard quitting everything but you'll eventually get there I hope your still trying to quit since a seen this comment a month after
Thank you again for the double comments on both videos. It would be awesome to see the channel grow and think we were here at the beginning. The gym is key, actually just did a detailed talk on how important it is to lift heavy weight for tomorrow :)
I smoke a lot of weed and today is the first day I haven't smoked. I did try to do it a bit easy, by yesterday only taking two hits, and two hits the day before instead of smoking all day like usual. This is not easy! My body is already sweating, my hands are clammy, and I would not be a fun person to be around right now. My problem is the depression gets so bad (history of anxiety and depression) that I'm scared as hell of the next few days. It's such a shame that our government is promoting this drug for their own profit. People convince themselves by saying, "it's just weed, what's the big deal, people don't do crazy stuff on weed" but the reality is it is an extremely addictive, mind altering drug that is killing us! It's killing our breathing, killing motivation in people, clogging arteries, and now millions are driving around stoned out. People say, "I drive perfect when I'm high" and that's fine for you, but what about the 18 year old kid who has no real experience driving and now he's behind the wheel stoned out. A drug is a drug is a drug, and this shit is killing me!
@@mailfraudvoter6620 Today is now day 13 and I feel great, except for the fact I am losing my job and residence tomorrow because of divorce, but I refuse to smoke!
@@gildariverawhen you have a friend who gets sectioned from a cannabis induced psychosis episode - get back to me. Nobody here is saying weed is evil, but acting as if it is a drug that can do no harm is just ignorant.
This is great advice, totally agree. Pretty much any overstimulating dopamine activity like watching dirty material for example can cause urges and cravings to comeback. It becomes a balance of maintaining normal levels of dopamine and not any easy access, quick stimulation which just holds us back in reality like smoking.
I used to smoke flower like average an eighth to almost a quarter a day sometimes. I have been tapering off by halving my daily intake each day and currently down to one J today. This was my last one and I plan to quit cold turkey from here. I will be taking CBD oil/elixir during this time to alleviate withdrawal symptoms. I have a THC vape pen and will allow myself to use it for the first week just incase I get too crazy or emotionally unstable. I plan to hold out on using the vape pen for as long as I can possibly manage and wont use it unless I really really have to. Seven days from today, whether I have used the vape pen or not, I will completely eliminate the vape from the equation and only consume CBD oil/elixir. From there I should be good to completely quit. (I might continue taking CBD here and there for its health benefits. However, no more THC and getting high for me.)
The whole idea of quitting is to quit. Their is no middle ground. You have to let your body experience the pain. Be one with it and not struggle with it.
Day 1 , I’ve been a daily smoker for 6 years . I’ve quit for a month at a time on multiple occasions but it never seemed to stick . Hopefully I can get to 3 months or much longer . Great video !
comment section is full of weaklings who have no control of their emotions or life seriously guys take control of your life is that all it takes for you to breakdown ? stopping smoking something that grows in the ground? i smoked 7 to 14 g a day for 15 years and dropped it in 1 day no cravings no pains no withdrawls its all a mindset you realy dont want to quit thats why its hard but the day you take control of your life and decide to be a better human being in the morning you will never look back
Just because they aren’t as severe doesn’t mean they aren’t withdrawal symptoms. Instead of belittling what others are going through try being supportive
I have no clue how people have such a hard time. I might be wrong I frequently am, however it seemed very easy to just stop. I was an everyday smoker for the past 6 years and I just stopped. I still sleep like a baby, eat 2 meals a day, and haven’t noticed much of a mood change. Today marks 1 week.
