Its been almost a month since I quit smoking. I am feeling really good about it today. I believe it's going to stick this time. The biggest change I am noticing, I find more joy in the little things.

If you are a daily cannibis user, are you honest with yourself about its effects on your daily life?
I know I wasn't for a long time.

Same 👍
Everyone talks about it impacting REM sleep. Have you had this experience? Are you sleeping better?
Much better. When I was smoking, I felt like often slept 12 hours and was still tired. I am feeling much more energized after 6-8 of sleep than I did then. Big adjustment though. I struggled to sleep well after first quitting. And dreams are off the charts now.
Nice was just curious. Not a smoker but always wondered if that was just a rumor.
Congratulations on your journey! Keep going!
Same. I don’t label it quit but I go much longer periods without it and it feels great. It affects people differently and I had a hard time getting up. Nice work man! Positive change leads to positive outcomes.
Congrats ! You should be proud !
Congrats. Sounds like a positive change in your life.
Definitely. It's huge. Way more than just the habit itself. There was a lot of crap I was hiding from that I have been forced to face.
I'm also finally over the worst part. Last week really sucked.
I also don't think I will smoke again anytime soon.
never smoked in my life.
discovered the joys of weed last year on holiday. I ate a few brownies that I didn't know what was in them. Luckily my friend stopped me as soon as he noticed 😆
I was spaced out all day but didn't feel bad after.
I'm a big fan of beer but noticed the negative effects on my body and brain. Now I'm basically swapping one drug for the other.
positive effects in noticed with micro dosing:
- keeps my stress levels down and I feel more productive
- I don't argue as much about things I can't change anyway
- calm but not tired
- my sleep improved (according to my smart watch)
- haven't had a hangover
negative effects:
- eyes are dry
- probably not eating enough (lost weight that I didn't want to lose), although I eat better food and less crap
- I use a vaporiser and that shit is expensive (don't want to smoke)
Another big difference to alcohol is that with larger doses I get less talkative. So socialising is harder...
Microdosing with cannabis? I could see a lot of great benefits to that. I have struggled to maintain the discipline for this when I tried before.
that's when my otg vaporiser comes in handy. It comes with tiny capsules. They hold about 0,1 -0,15 grams of weed. Also the battery only lasts for 5 or 6 capsules. You either stretch it over the day or get one big buzz.
