Yeah quitting weed is 98% mental. Just get rid of all your herb in your home and don't look back.





I tried to stop like that 100 times, never worked. The addiction really was very deep. Hats off to those who can stop just like that.

If you have nothing and plan on taking it head on cold turkey with nothing to combat withdrawals, I find the best thing to do is find a hobby such as lucid dreaming or netflix it up nonstop to distract yourself for those first few days.




Funny you should say that. When I did cold turkey from weed, I always got guaranteed massive amounts of lucid dreaming for free. No nightmares, just very visual HD lucid dreams. Full control and awareness. And afterwards waking up drenched in sweat. Usually managed 3 or 4 nights, then I was back smoking.

It's rough but it's also like making a promise with yourself no matter how hard it gets. And from there, you grow and realize how easy it actually was in retrospect to quit. My first time quitting for a job, so only a month off, I immersed myself in lucid dreaming and became addicted to that. That's why I say find a good, healthy replacement addiction like tea. Or if you're way too apathetic like my last quit, just watch TV nonstop and pretend like your sick basically.

When I finally made the decision to quit smoking everyday, I used kratom and it made the psychological aspect of withdrawals pretty much nonexistent. From there I realized how many of my physical symptoms were caused by my anxiety indirectly. Now I only smoke maybe 1-2 times a week on the weekend and it's soooooo so so so much better. I much more healthy and happy. Accept that you will feel shitty for a week or so and keep telling yourself that each moment you feel down, is a moment closer to feeling way better than when you smoked daily even. You can do it bro. And to be honest, it's better to quit young rather than 2 decades later when you're even more mentally attached. The longer you do it daily, the more it is just used for maintenance such as sleeping and eating, rather than for fun. At that point, it's meaningless to keep doing daily. So keep in mind that each day you continue toking, will make the mental grasp onto this habit even stronger and harder to let go. Letting go of this daily habit was one of the best decisions I've made as far as personal growth and health goes. Best of luck

I get no dreams at all when I smoke. And by that I mean I don't remember them. Since I have a dream journal, I noticed how I have something like 2 dreams in a month while smoking everyday. I usually have up to 20 a month, minimum 10, but that was long long time ago...

Yeah I don't dream much at all when I smoke.  I love it honestly though because my dreams can be terrifying

Well, I love my dreams more than reality, because I'm so happy after dreaming, sometimes even more happy than after meditating...

Thanx a lot for the sympathy Heisencybin. To be honest I guess I haven't been very clear. It's all in the past already for me. I did smoke more than 2 decades. And it was very hard quitting. But I've done it, and I think it's for good. The few times I tried to smoke again were not pleasant, just too much headspin and disgust at inhaling all that smoke.

And that's a pity. When I stopped I was looking forward to smoking twice a month and totally spacing out, moreover doing it out of free will instead of habit. Turned out when I stopped my tolerance dropped, and going back for infrequent smokes is not a good experience for me.

Oh well, I guess I'm better off now. And saving some cash too! I'm glad I still like all those other substances, just no longer using daily.

Love, Hanz.

This is not uncommon.  I smoked weed daily from around 20 to 35 years old, then gave it up.  Not as a strict rule, but just sorta stopped for no particular reason.  Now when I do it, I start worrying about work, and finances, and other stuff that make it less enjoyable. 

Hey, did you start to remember your dreams when you stopped?

I ended up going to a medical detox and getting sober.

And while I was there for 5 days it was the longest break from cannabis I have had in the past 10 years.

I just smoked and I am SO HIGH... I haven't been this high since when I first started smoking weed I think and it's super weird and a different experience than my normal high with tolerance. Normally I can smoke all day and I never get very high and now I am like borderline having a panic attack haha.

But anyway, has anyone else taken a long break from weed and had this? I always give people shit that don't smoke weed cause they say they don't how it makes them feel or cause it's too intense but now I know how they feel.

This is rambaling now but I'm gonna post anyway haha

Anyone else super stoned

:mindblown::lolsy::lolwut::elmobong::awehigh:


:dumbass:




I never get tolerance so experience this every night. I have no idea what tolerance would be like. Tolerance would be useful for social cannabis use. Fuck I just get so wrecked on social occasions it is a real pain in my ass, as I have too decline to use with people or make a fool of myself.

Smoked for the first time in months recently, I was shivering, stressing about life and slurring my words. Then it wore off and I was hunting out that roach like a fuckin fiend. When I take a sabbatical I tend to hit the liquor and cigs hard for a couple weeks till the cravings go away.

And you smoke cigs and drink booze till your weed cravings go away?? That is kinda backwards to me

I smoked synthetic weed for a couple years. Shit got me way high. Funny thing is it started to not effect me anymore so I stopped. Went a year without smoking and got a different job where they don't drug test. So I naturally wanted to smoke real weed. Got some dank smoked it and no effect. I even tried smoking hash oil . No effect . Weed can't get me high and thatnsucks. Hence why I'm trying so do the mushroom thing

I know how the fuck you feel man. It's awesome smoking with no tolerance, the paranoia is fun as hell! I love it. Makes the experience NOT boring unlike with smoking on a strong tolerance!


--------------------
On the ground you lay, with your dogs you pray, at a neon hieroglyph sky you gaze

Hugging your mind, praying to survive, feeling the love of the hieroglyphs in the sky
We all need more love, and mainly less hate
Hate is the blind that covers the heart's eye
That makes the heart's eye cry
Locked deep away in the skies of our minds

It's all in the mind

Is it possible the synthetic JWH, or whatever you smoked, gave you some kind of perma-tolerance for the real thing?

I'm afraid of that synthetic stuff man, after all the K2 stories, and all the different kinds they invent these days...

Well actually I'm being a little hypocritical here. There are some RC's that I really like to take. Like Mxe, that stuff is great. Just don't take it every day. An Mxe addiction is something you definitely want to avoid!
