To each their own, but I ditched smoking weed 90 days ago today, after 15 years of daily usage, somewhere in the ball park of 150-300mg of THC daily.

Psychologically it’s been one of the most challenging things I’ve done. I never even realized what a crutch it had become for my mind.

Long story short, I feel weed has a purpose, as it did for me at certain times in my life, but people really underestimate the power it really has over the mind.

Take a break. Truly open your mind. Sobriety is way more intense than being high.

How do you feel?

It’s remarkable honestly. The clarity of thought and overall presence of mind is night and day. I’d gotten to the point where I felt like I was just going through the motions with my weed habit. Constant brain fog, steady anxiety, felt like I couldn’t think all the time. Couldn’t even tell you why I was even doing it anymore. When I smoked, I didn’t dream. When I quit, nightmares were the order of the day for almost three months. Now, my dreams are vivid and beautiful. Don’t even think I was really sleeping before quitting. It’s been mental turmoil coming back to reality, but it feels like I’ve finally pierced the veil, and it feels amazing.

That’s amazing. I don’t label it quit but it is similar type situation and a few months minus it wasn’t turmoil and no nightmares. I feel way better and aware, and more restful. As long as you feel good, stay onto that and keep going.

Sobriety is underrated. That's a huge change of mindset, and a giant wall to climb over after 15 years of heavy use. You should be proud of yourself 🔥

Thank you. It’s been a powerful experience.

Different circumstances, but I had a similar path. I understand a little bit of that challenge. Keep at it, I hope to hear more about your journey as you go along.
