For me, getting high became like being completely alone in your own mind. At 1st it was fun, but the longer I did it, the more I felt I was completely isolating myself. I think you'll get your appetite back and sleep better eventually if you quit, but it does take some adjustment time.

I know I’m four years late. I’ve been a chronic smoker for almost 4 years. I’m glad you mentioned it, it feels like the past four years were empty, I hated to admitted it. The end of the video was very helpful.

Just thought I would comment as the partner of an addicted spouse for over 27 years. It literally stole from me a marriage due to his inability to be intimate on every level. It robbed our 4 children of an engaged father. My children always knew when he smoked and his mood swings. The past 6 years have been the worst as it has now made him impotent and he is fine with it because he loves weed way more than he ever loved me. PLEASE stop and develop who you are emotionally and spiritually without substances that heavily affect your brain chemistry and the straight people in relationships with YOU! Your private sin does not just affect you it affects all of the people around you who love you! Jesus most of all loves you and wants you addicted to Him only! it’s too late for me but you can change! God bless!

Steve Suich, I know this guy may not look like your stereotypical stoner, but neither do I. I'm a ginger white a f guy who no one would even imagine I smoke weed apart from my closest friends who know that. But little do people know, I've been smoking probably about 8 Joints a day for 5 years and it's completed halted my progress and self development in life. I'm basically the same person I was 5 years ago, I havnt learned anything meaningful since then. If I were you I would listen to this man's advice because he is right on.

I’m only 21 years young but smoked my first at age 12 and started smoking heavy at age 16 until age 19 very very heavy. I quit early on because I knew my potential. What helped me is my dad and I moved states and I had no more weed friends and no connect to buy. That helped me . That first year I put on 40 pounds of pure muscle. A discipline you usually get going to the army. I ate like a body builder. Very strict. No soda . No chips. No candy. They may sound hard but it wasn’t for me. I relapse thoe and what made me relapse what saying to myself “I’m sure I can do it occasionally” and also tough times in life. That was never the case. I relapsed about 4 time sustain my two years of wanting to quit. This was my last relapse and never plan on going back. I feel high on life. I feel at the moment . Simply just great. I started my business. My KZread Chanel. And I started packing on some good weight again.!!! If I want to quit. Quit!!! It is not impossible

im smoking weed since i was 13 years old started smoking heavy around 15 im 28 years old now sober for 3 days wish me luck its realy hard cold sweats cant sleep dont eat much its realy like a train wreck but you just need to keep your self busy remember people everything has a cheat code

My main reason for me wanting to quit is the cost. I dont get paid alot and can smoke up to 1/4 lb a month.

Brother you are SPOT ON please help me over come this addiction! How do overcome that terrible staleness and bored that comes with quitting. Im 22 and have smoked since i was 17 DAILY. IM 100% addicted to herb. When ever i try to quit i cant watch tv i cant play games cant focus on anything because its just not the same its not fun its not ENJOYABLE. NOTHING SEEMS ENJOYABLE.

I'm afraid you have to become more do-er and less watch-er, if you know what I mean. Weed is good to make you enjoy time while _doing_ nothing. So you have to start doing things. Draw, cook, study, exercise and write. Instead of sitting on the couch, maybe go bowling, hiking or go and take pictures of things you find interesting. Do things and improve yourself.

I know exactly how you feel. Unfortunately I felt the same way for way to long in my life. I smoked regularly everyday for about 20 yrs started when I was 13 I'm now 35. My best advice is force yourself to stop for at least 5 months. Give your body a chance to refresh feel what life is like without it again. The habit doesn't go away overnight just like it didn't develop overnight but you will get better with time, you should notice some positive changes around the 2 month mark, and it only gets better from there. You can do it! Good luck to you hope this helps.

I have gone for over 5 years smoking almost every day. Coming up on 2 weeks sober and it is like my attitude toward other people has changed so much. Crazy to think but it is true. Even just driving in traffic i can control my anger. great video man thanks for sharing.

This was so meaty and rich with depth and because it's a psychedelic drug it needs to be explained in a psychedelic way. I totally understood when you mentioned about feelings we don't get when we are high. I had quit this thing for a couple years and ran into a really stressful situation, I had a friend of mine mention it (it's always around me, I cant get away from it) and convinced myself to just buy a dime bag, this was 7months ago and while a joint will last me a few days, I'm still smoking every day when I get off of nightshift and have been for 6 to 6 months now, also smoking on my off days here and there. I'm right back to where I started. It seems to have a little hold over me at the moment. However, I will push forward and kill this thing once and for all. Not to mention dreams will come back (we never dream when we are high) our bodies are operating normally when we dream. Something to think about.

Kudos for the video content! Forgive me for butting in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you ever tried - Raouzgoldie Remove Habit Release (probably on Google)? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for giving up smoking weed minus the headache. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my work colleague after many years got cool success with it.

Well put! I've been smoking for 40 years, have recognized for a long time that I'm psychologically addicted. Have built in long breaks because of that to recalibrate and get back to health and normalcy, knowing I'd pick it up again and accepted that cycle as the cost of doing business. This time around am strongly considering quitting for good, so have listened to half dozen other testimonials. This one nails it for me, well done, Sir! Thank you for sharing your story.

Y’all will succeed in giving it up. Weed is thankfully not the most harmful substance to the body and detoxing from it while still a challenge is much less extreme than other substances. Just continue on until you begin to remember the feels of life before you tried weed. If your still using the substance rn you’ll underestimate how much you’ve truly forgotten about your past life and the feels that we’re attached to it. It’s hard to describe the moment when you’ve given it up for awhile and this unbelievably familiar feeling comes back and surprises the living shit out of you. At first you’ll feel like you almost lost your past self and your just glad to have it back but it’s never going to be too late to transition back to your pure form, it just might take longer for the full transition to take place the longer you’ve been away from it thus stopping now is the fastest way to become reacquainted with your beautiful intelligent creative self you always knew you were

You don't have to completely cut out the things you love. Same as junk food or whatever, just moderate and try not to do things compulsively and 24/7. Take a 1-2 week break to bring down your tolerance that saves money and makes it more enjoyable. Like people on diets they cut out all sugar treats to begin with but they will likely cave back into old habits after a couple of months. If you really want out you'll get out but if it's too hard for you I think a part of you really loves it, so don't torture yourself too much. Be reasonable but also take your pleasures where you can in life 😘

Wow such a great video, I'm on day 8 I have changed. Like you said the thing I use to love kinda have changed because I'm not high all of the time. I use to smoke everyday for the last 8 months. So being sober is kinda new to me. Headaches and being bored sucks. I hope I start to feel better soon.

Did you feel better by the end of it?

Great info dude! Thanks!!!

Thank you for being so honest and open, I keep trying to find as many videos as I can to keep me focused..today is day 4. I've smoked for 13 years, as often as I could. Every day I would make progress, then smoke n I instantly have all these negative thoughts about myself. The idea of smoking is more pleasurable than the act itself. I love weed and everything it has done for me but just for today, I will not give in to the cravings

I have a theory about weed, weed makes you feel good, feeling good all the time is bad, people getting a stronger mind when they have resistance when they have issues and they try to deal with them, if you solve all issues by weed your mind tolerance become weak , like body muscles don't grow or become weak if you don't have resistance on them if you use weed, you should not do it for the immediate pleasure of for the external world, you should NOT try to do it to resolve your depression or sadness immediately when they occur but try your best to deal with them, if you cant sleep at night don't sleep at night, the way to use weed is INDIRECTLY, meaning , wake up at 4 am in the morning consume your weed and go back to bed without eating anything without consuming any content, when you wake up later the weed high effect should be out of your body,but the effect on the rest of the day should be good. you should do it only on the weekend. that is the recipe PS: don't consume diff strains, choose one and go with it, if you want to change a strain, make sure that the old one is out of your body, meaning don't consume for 2 weeks. we are the host of the cannabis (flower) like the movie VENOM , and the flower don't like sharing the HOST (us)

Thanks so much for this video!

EVERYTHING you are saying is sooo spot on. First time i saw this video I wanted to wrap my last nugget in a kilo of duck tape. I wanted to trap it the way it trapped me and leave it in some dark place, the way it left me. But then I realized, my brain is just playing another MANIPULATIVE GAME to keep it, to keep the feeling, to keep false memories, so i flushed it. The thing about distorted memories hit me so hard man, because its so true. I smoked basically daily for past 7 years, and it pretty much destroyed me. I wanted to be a physicist, I still want that, but it kept me away from my dream because I was basically cognitively impaired by it, brain fog kept me away from life in general, let alone complex calculations I needed to do. I always found excuses, Richard Feynman smoked, I'll have new insights etc. etc.But the truth is, it created an aura around me, aura of not giving a f&&k about anything, it acted as a spiritual and psychological sedative or suppressor. That aura WILL NOT let you to see yourself and your goals clearly. Its crazy how insidious it is. It will make you live a HALF LIFE, with UNFORESEEN CONSEQUENCES (gamers will resonate) that will destroy you when you see them clearly. I respect you so much for this, and for saying that "smoking sometimes" is NOT okay once you jumped on an addiction train, because it is a trap, and I have fallen in it HUNDREDS of times. Once I quit for 8 months, thought lets do it one time again, just for fun, then 3 years passed while stoned... I tried lots of things, nothing posed a problem (even f$c(ing ketamine), except for god damned weed. Too long, I started to vent out here, sorry. Thank you man, peace and love from F&$C/INg Bosnia and Herzegovina (problem reaches that far). P.S. Your kid rocks the piano :)

Eating weed gives me severe anxiety attacks. doesn't get me high.

Looking for some hapiness but there is only loneliness to find

I’ve been sober for 2 weeks now and I completely agree with this. After a year of smoking every day multiple times a day, I fount myself way to dependent on it, wether I could eat, sleep, be happy, and just being able to to enjoy myself and what I’m doing all depended on if I was high or not. After I stopped, about a week after I found myself much happier, sleeping better, and found that weed was no longer even on my mind.

Great video ! Great Message!!

Dam I'm smoking n watching this😢 but he's right 100%

Packing my last bowl of this fire while im watching this. Then that’s it for me..... wish me luck on this big journey... been a recreational weed smoker for about 4 years now and need to quit for PO..so hope it goes well

Thanks alot. This video has really helped me.

MUCH LOVE BROTHER! I've watched this video once a day since i found it like 4 days ago. I already know everything you've said, but i'm having trouble quitting and it's nice to listen to someone's thoughts on it! I'm 27 and have been smoking heavy since i was 14. I'm an addict to thc, and used to be an addict to other drugs. I don't believe in rehab, i've never been. I have my med card in Michigan and i'm surrounded by cannabis, in all shapes and forms, all day everyday. I'm so sick of smoking...

Did you feel any withdrawal symptoms after you quit? I stopped about a month ago and have been super tired and irritated. I smoked for the last 6 years pretty steadily (almost daily but not alot everyday) and now life feels weird without it. I wish i didn't have the mindset that it was this harmless substance all these years but such is life! Im just hoping i get my mental clarity back and what not. Not giving up!!

Cortney P I've also been smoking heavy for 6 years and I'm now on day 16 of quitting. My health has started to suffer in the last year, which I'm convinced is due to my heavy smoking. High blood pressure, nose bleeds and constant migraines. I do believe cannabis is a medicine but not the way I've abused it. I also believe that my mental health is suffering due to living in my spaced out bubble,I just can't seem to do life anymore. Anyways I've decided enough is enough and I'm now a non smoker as far as I'm concerned now. Good luck with your addiction, I hope you manage to turn you back on it. I find watching these quitting vids on YT helps me get through each day.

I'm 33 and Have smoked daily for 18 years. Convinced myself that it's as much a part of my identity as any of my other attributes but have known for a long time it's been holding me back. The daily stone-overs and head fuzz have rendered me useless until mid afternoon and that has done nothing to help my business grow the way I want it to. The cons have now outweighed the pros and I'm 4 days into sobriety. I have sprung out of bed each morning hours before the usual norm and already have way more clarity of mind than I can remember. Tonight I really struggled with the cravings but this video definitely helped. That and a joint shaped tobacco only cigarette..its not perfect but it's a start, right?

Just because there's no physical addiction doesn't mean shit boy, there's no physical addiction to porn, or food, videogames, the meaning of a physical addiction is that your body needs it in order not to die, a lot of drug addictions when first started are non physical addictions, so your point doesn't mean shit, people don't see xans as that bad, but you take them for a while and suddenly stop, you can get brain damage from seizeures and die

@Maxime Desforges 2 years isn't shit, and 2 weeks isn't even that long of a quitting time, what mental issues? Because weed is definitely addictive, anything that gives you pleasure and releases happy chems in your brain, is addictive, it's as simple as that, same for food, movies, games, sex so on so on

Good stuff, very well said.

Thanks for your perspective. I am on day one of quitting the herb after a little over 5 years of daily smoking. I picked it back up after retiring from the military and initially used it for physical and emotional pain control. I don't remember the withdrawals being so bad as a teenager but its doing a number on me and I have to get past it. Of the dozens of video I've watched on this subject, you really hit home why I feel I need to make a change. Thanks again.

I don’t want to quit I just want to not wake up in “weed withdraw”

The best way to quit (if you're having trouble quitting) is to take a two week vacation to someplace where you don't have access to it.

@Metal Mystic I live in Michigan and it's medically legal. But ANYBODY (18 or older) with $120 and a complaint of headaches, back pain, trouble sleeping or eating can get a medical marijuana card. I had a medical marijuana card when I faked back pain. Too easy. The dispensaries...I just ignore them or avoid them. How many years have you been smoking? Were you smoking everyday sun up to sun down or only a few times a week? And about how many grams per day? So many factors.

No one is gonna care for you more than you. You have to be your own best friend. What helped me was knowing that taking the easy way out of things is just that, easy. Do what is hard. Start small. Make it one day, then a week, etc. anyone can get drunk or high. I wanna do things that take strength and determination. Even if you get on a roll temptation will always be around. You must learn to identify it and stay centered.

Spot on with the ideas.

All these problems what marijuana brings to your life, lack of energy/motivations etc. It all comes down to the _person_ using the drug. All these associations we have are made by us, made by our thoughts into our memory and experience. I feel like when you see and observe this movement of thought and all these thoughts associated you can actually get rid of all the "problems" and have all the energy you need to achieve whatever it is you want. I honestly believe the cause of these psychological problems is not the plant, but the user. The user is the Core and whatever is going on in the core, all the emotions life situation etc. are getting amplified By the drug, the drug is like Input to your Core.

While this may be subjectively true relative to the individual, it doesn't remove any of the objective effects of marijuana on the brain. Which begs the question even if you are motivated enough to do these things are you as effective at them as you would be if you were sober beyond withdrawal? Are you crashing your dopamine receptors? Since dopamine encourages motivation It's important to know if this habit is wreaking more damage then it is helping you. Is it worth it to feed into something for the illusion of relaxation?

@391C

Indeed it is really important to know if the habit is wreaking more damage than it is helping you, knowing and seeing what substances are doing to you, and seeing the thoughts it is bringing to your mind is important in order to use the substance correctly

Thank you for expressing exactly how I feel when using weed and why I should not.
