Hereās the thing, itās more than āquitting weedā, itās about becoming someone different, which is scary. What helped me the most was doing more hard things: lifting, running, watching every sunrise, cold plunges, etc. Not because these things are āhealthyā, but because doing things that I didnāt feel like doing started to increase my mindās control over my actions. Slowly, I was able to use that same āmuscleā to quit the more addictive habits: weed, drinking, refined sugar and even caffeine.
So, maybe donāt start with the weed, start with something else thatās hard, but easier than thatā¦ for you.
Oh, and donāt listen to what they say about weed not being addictive, it is the most sinister of addictions because it leads people to believe theyāre not addicted, or that itās some sort of āmedicineā. Rogan doesnāt help the narrative either. From personal experience, I can tell you that quitting is the greatest l, it took me about 6 months to a year of no weed until it no longer had its tendrils in me. So, like Bitcoin, play the long game. Hope that helps, good luck out there.
Thank you. Great advice. I do think it can serve as medicine for some at some times. I believe it has helped me through a lot in the past. And now I am at a different place where I don't feel I need it anymore. I do agree it can be very addictive as well. Just through my own experience. I don't need scientific proof to know something is addictive for me. Thanks again for the helpful advice. I have been doing more hard things, still getting my energy back. Tomorrow is a new day. š
