My brain produces many thoughts that encourage me to get high.

A wide range of excuses, most of which are laughable. 

Interestingly, the weather isn't one of them    :wink:

I'm trying to quit so bad but I feel like it's the only thing that's making me happy in life right now

In the end, it all comes down to being yourself and taking responsibility for who and what you are

Lunareclipse I've been there it's not true happiness though just a veil that you can drape over the mental clutter. It kind of like being a horder but only shoving everything in places your not forced to look at on a daily basis. Cannabis is medicine but what happens when you treat a nonexisting condition? Love is the key to happiness and there is a whole universe of people inside of you that love you unconditionally.

Didn't mean to "come at you". We all experience the same thing. Many excuses to use.

I posted a very long list of my absurd reasons a while back.

We should listen to the voice in our head and chuckle.

My comments aren't about any one poster, but the situation we share.

All right man, peace.

I let it all pass before me, I know what happens if I don't let my thoughts float freely without attachment and I've had enough of that bullshit contaminating the world.

Day something something, I don't count days. What I do know is that today I am the most pissed off motherfucker in the world. What's the point of a room full of yoga mats and foam rollers if you're not allowed to go in there? Damn gyms man. All-consuming fire.

Hello beautiful people and fellow shroomers :mushroom2:

I've been using cannabis to treat my anxiety for quite some time. 3-4 times daily for a little over a year currently.

Yes I really have anxiety and it's not spawned from my daily cannabis use, I can remember having symptoms all the way back to childhood.

The thing is that the thought of not having cannabis makes me absolutely manic. Every time I'm close to running out, and don't know if I'll be able to get more because I'm broke AF until I finish school, it's like instant panic. I feel like I've gotten to the point where I don't just use it to treat my anxiety, but I'm mentally dependent on it because I don't want to have to fight my anxiety sober....

I don't want to quit completely, but I HAVE GOT to cut down. Not just to get mentally stronger and be OK in the case that I'm not able to have it for a while, but also because I just can't afford how much I currently smoke. I get a quarter at $80 every two weeks, only $160/month doesn't seem like much for some people but I seriously can't do it. It takes away from gym memberships, food, etc...

I just need some help, guys. Please send me all the good energy you can spare. I'm going to start by only smoking once a day, at night when my day is pretty much over. Maybe cut back more after I get used to this, I dunno, but today is my first day.

If you have any anxiety-battling techniques, please share. I already get good exercise, run or bike 3 miles a day, maintain a relatively healthy vegetarian diet, I do the 4-7-8 breath a lot, and chant mantras/meditate...

love you guys and thanks in advance :heart::mushroom2:

To panic at the idea of not having weed is a sign it's causing you to suffer.

If you want to reduce your anxiety, you must honestly look at it's source.

Any attempt to "fight it" makes things worse. This is not a battle.

Getting stoned cripples your ability know clearly what's going on within yourself.

It's very helpful to observe and recognize the thoughts associated with your stress.

There are certain thoughts that fuel your anxiety. Discovering them is a big start.

ChemicalSpark. Any prolonged exposure to a substance can cause you to feel it when it isn't even in your system. It's just psychology. 2 types of things stick in our subconcous memorys'. 1) Extremely traumatic experiences. We may think we're over them and then one day have a panic attack out of nowhere, your brain reliving the feelings of the experience.

2)Prolongued feelings, whether intense or not. If you have a feeling or thought for a long, long time all the time, it is no surprise that you would feel that feeling even when the cause is absent. That's what I think is going on with you.

Metabolites don't get you high, the metabolites of marijuana are the remnants of THC, what your liver turned the THC into to neutralize it's effects. However THC itself will get stored in your lipid cells, and released over time, which should feel as though you are kind if high the day after you quit, and slightly less so the next day and so on. Ie not what you are describing.

For me, I used to balaze all the time when I was younger (well 2-3 years ago). Psuchedelics put a stop to that. Quitting was never something I truly intended to do, but after my first mushroom trip, which was beautiful and dynamic and incredible, weed was simply overwhelmingly boring.

I got high the night after my first trip, and was somehow expecting something more, and was just left lazy and tired, unable to think, wondering why I like this so much.

I never fully quit. I would go at most a 2 months between blazing, but it would be more at a party or something, not just as a habit. I still do blaze every so often, more often this last month or so, nowhere near how much I used to, but it seems the more I do it, the less enjoyable it is.

With all of my whacky psychedelic experiences under my belt weed is absolutely not what it used to be. When I smoke weed I still get the sedation and suppression if thought I used to, but its accompanied with a visual display, patterns, waviness, tracers, you name it. Its not the same as a trip though, none of the insight and beauty, it kinda makes weed pointless though, because it doesn't give the relaxing chill time it used to, but its not a full blown psuchadelic experience either, which is a good thing. I don't like blazing so much because I get aggravated easily and I get bad sleeps so I'm tired and lethargic all the time, not a productive way to be.

Even if weed were the way it used to be, I wouldn't blaze the way I used to, there's not enough in it, after seeing what my 5HT agonist buddies have to offer.

Hello,

I second with the thoughts shared here. I love weed and it makes it harder to quit. At times iv had my mind run on the grand theatre and it was so much fun. I don't know if those were different stuff or my mind was different. However, its not the same anymore, its depressing, forget oneself, you get slow, there is social withdrawl and a hell lotta things i dont want to be.

I was engrossed on a project one day and forgot to tke a smoke break, the moment i realized i dint take the break, i wasnt feelin mch like smoking so i thot il prolly smoke later but i dint as i had to submit things before deadline and then run for home and its hard to find fags around where i stay, i went home and slept, the reality of the project result was too much for me that day. so that one day was completely smoke free and that motivated me, if I had a one day smokefree then there could be so many number of days i can be smokefree. so i made it into one year.

One day smoke free followed by a three weeks of coughing my systems clean. It was like my lungs were tired of coughing and somebody put a lid to this gutter! lol

With weed, it was the company, my friend went to NZland and so had no company to smoke so i thought lets try not smoking. that went well.

I had quit ciggrattes for an year and weed for around 4 months. It felt good, one thing for sure was that i was so confident about sex.

Everytime i feel an urge, I let the urge get into me completely like il go for a smoke in sometime but before that i enquire it as to why is there a need to smoke/act in this way that i need to smoke, and im taken to another place the urge comes from and the urge is not to smoke but to cover something by smoking, its something else than im avoiding. most of the times its boredom, sometimes its sex, regret, guilt, sometimes its cramps in my stomach that im avoiding. prolly every reason i dont wanto be myself i feel

I love weed tho, being a creative person, it shows my amazing things, but its not the case anymore. I feel sore brain sometimes, like the trips in my head but i cant feel it, theres no grand theatre. sometimes i think i dont feel into it but when i do, its a trippy feeling alone not really how it shoudve been. So i used to smoke anytime in week, any opportunity i got and on weekends for sure! after this episode of weed being so weird, i started to make it only on weekends. then i realised i was so heavily relied on it that it took me 4 days to come off weed and feel myself! so from one week i made it two weeks. if you smoke weed after two weeks it feels great actually, but i was motivated for a larger break and better trip, but then i got addicted to it and started to smoke again. your brain kinda bores off from it, tolerance built and then it starts going negative. reminds me of economics theory of diminishing marginal utility.

So im on the quit mode again, its been 11 days and sometimes it feels like i cnt live without it. Right now music feels great, and there is nothing inside that stops me from being me, so im here for REAL! 8-)

Also everytime theres an urge like i cant live without weed/fags, i tell my brain that i dont need it, an attempt to reprogramme my brain neurons, works most of the time, the urge fades a bit.

One can be utterly intoxicated and awake/alert at the same time, that some inbuilt mechanism of brain! so we our brains are really great, need to figure it out!

hope my posts helps you all when you have an urge that says you cant live wo it! its just temporary, stay there! let it pass, you will then be glad you overcame it at that moment!

good day! :smile:

Today I suddenly got hit by a bout of depression, and a relentless one at that too!

So I went to meditate on the bed but fell asleep, now I'm feeling all right except for having slight taste loss and the occasional pesky thought or two.

Drinking a beer tonight from the abbey and going to sleep more. Have to make an effort to do more exercise.

Good luck y'all!!

Interesting post bestpsybeever

Also, repeated behaviors create neural networks, which in turn generates increased desire to engage in the behavior.

Which is why people can become hooked on gambling, shopping, video games, and many other activities.

During my last Christmas break, I was home alone in the house that my parents bought. It was the first time in my life that I was going to live in a house all to myself. I have always valued my alone time, but there are still times where I feel lonely. Usually during the breaks. I didn’t want to be lonely in that time of the year, so, I decided to buy 2 grams and enjoy myself.
The first inhale was solid. I held it in my lungs for a couple seconds and when I exhaled my throat did not burn. The high creeped up pretty quickly. I remember spending 30 minutes in front my electronic keyboard and hitting chords like Gmajor7 and observing of how beautifully it sounded Dmajor7.
Cannabis is a beautiful drug, it has a way getting me out of my head and find inspiration from the outside world. It’s like I’m a child again, doing activities not because of their future benefit, but because of their we're worth while.


The reason I have decided to quit Cannabis is not because if some moral decision of why drugs and bad and blah blah blah.. (We have enough of those today). However, I decided to quit Cannabis because it was not longer helping me the way it first was.
When I first started smoking I really enjoyed every experience from start to finish, no anxiety or feelings of shame ever came up. I just took a packed my bowl and went on enjoying my day, listening in class, and meeting people. If you don’t believe me, this short film took a week to cast, shoot, and edit. I did everything from putting out casting calls to getting locations while I was 100% high….  Everyday, yeah.  It was that frequent. Unfotunately, this didn’t last long.
Now when I smoke, it is followed with a couple minutes of feeling like my life is leading down a road of destruction and that I would be a 45 year-old homeless done day and this is the start of that story. In addition, I would not get as much as I would like to get done but would spend hours on Youtube watching Dank Meme 420 Funny Vines Compilations. Its fucking STUPID!!!!! Lol.  But the worst part about it was that I would get anxiety and worry about my situation every time I was sober. At that point, I would say, I was addicted.
