“Marijuana dims the human spirit over time” that one hit me hard because it’s so true. When I first started smoking it was such a fun adventure every time. Everything felt enhanced because of it. Fast forward 15 years later and I was smoking because it was simply apart of me. I wasn’t having fun anymore, I was smoking just to get “normal” instead of high. I had become lazy and unmotivated and did nothing. This video really gets the issues with being a chronic smoker. Being sober feels great and it’s right.

It made me tired, irritable, unmotivated, and lazy. I am 40 days clean and went through withdrawals of insomnia and mood swings. I noticed this week, I wasn't cursing out other drivers on the road and falling asleep and staying asleep. I intend to quit forever because I realize I can't be a social smoker, but will always be a heavy smoker, if I smoke. My boyfriend still smokes but doesn't buy. A friend gave him an 8th of an ounce and he was nice enough to smoke outside, although I am not tempted to smoke at all/ Last week he left a full bowl of it out, perhaps by accident and I wasn't the least bit tempted. I remember how drained I felt smoking it. You can do it and I will pray for you!

I made researches and found out that shrooms are very helpful , it has really helped to reduce anxiety and depression and some other mental health issues like addiction..i would love to try magic mushrooms but they are hard to source!

This video really helped me. I've been a daily user for over 30 years and I've made every excuse under the sun not to quit smoking weed. Finally with some good counselling and just a paradigm shift, I stopped on Dec 6th to take a week off. I'm on Day 27 and I never want to go back. The withdrawal was tough but nothing I couldn't handle and thankfully I already do yoga daily for 3.5 years, I haven't missed a day. I found Tommy's Recovery 2.0 Yoga videos extremely helpful and if I can quit weed, anyone can. I was the worst pothead I knew and I will just let you know some of the benefits of quitting. I can think clearly again, I can visit friends and family and just enjoy their company. I can go to the beach or for a walk or anything and I feel happier than I ever have. Take baby steps and try one week at a time, and then just keep going. Thank you Tommy Rosen and the community for all you do to help the addictions... and I agree with the "Just Breathe" parts and if you need to, you can take a fake toke and hold it in for a few seconds till you kick the habit. Especially for the younger people, don't wait till your almost 50 to quit, your life is way to beautiful and you can create some dreams and goals and get after it!!!💜With all of my love and light, xo Nicole

He is trying to share his testimony and help others who are in deep. I wish you wouldn't be so quick to get angry, because you do not need to defend marijuana, everyone here has likely enjoyed it. The problem is addiction and dependence, its a psychological issue that is very real and can happen with weed.

I found a great path to healing. His name is Jesus. Jesus took all of my pain, all of my suffering, trials and tribulations on Himself on the Cross. Jesus is the only one who died for the punishment of our sins and rose from dead to reveal His power over life and death. Because of Jesus, I am a new being. I don't need alcohol, marijuana or any other drug to push aside life's challenges. Jesus carries me through this life each and every day. And the most beautiful part of believing in Jesus is that someday after I die, I will join Jesus in Heaven. Heaven and Hell are real places and Jesus has prepared a place for those who believe in Him. I challenge you today to put your faith and trust in Jesus. He is more than able to heal you and make you a new being. Pray this simple prayer and ask Jesus to enter your life: Dear Heavenly Father, I thank you for sending your Son, the Lord Jesus to die on the Cross for my sins. I know I am a sinner. I know I have broken your laws. Today, I want to believe and receive Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior and follow Him only. Father, I pray for your healing and your protection over my life and those around me. I want to believe and receive Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior. In His precious and Holy Name I pray. Amen! Let me know how you are doing.

This hit so deep. I’m so frustrated...I’ve attempted to quit for years and feel like I’ve limited my life and dreams so much 😢...the thing is I have been into spirituality, meditation etc and done so much inner work for the past 8 years...and yet that hasn’t helped me stop. I know loneliness/community is a big gap for me at times, which doesn’t help.

Smoked my first spliff in 1981. Just stopped. That makes me 40 plus years dependent on the "Mary Jane". Quit alcohol 22 years ago. Quit tobacco 10 years ago. I used many other drugs along the way. Weed is definitely the biggest Elephant in MY room. Never too late to stop!

“Guess what was waiting for me: me” this is powerful. I smoked for years to cover up all my anger, sadness and issues I’ve experienced. Now it’s smacking me hard in the face and it’s hard.

In my opinion and experience, I think smoking weed every night is not good for most people. I used to do that too and I noticed more negatives then positives after doing that for years. Would you drink a glass of wine every night? I mean you could, but would you enjoy doing that every night for the rest of your life? Eventually, you won't appreciate it as much or you may start drinking more than one glass. I bet your friends who smoke 8-10 times a day don't have full time professional careers or they don't make a lot of money. I love weed and used to smoke it 3-5 times a day for 2-3 years, then smoke it nightly for 2-3 years. Now, I really enjoy weed 1-2 days a week (usually 2-3 bowls those days). Anymore then that and I feel like it starts becoming a negative habit. But to each their own I guess. I enjoy being completely sober for weeks or months at a time sometimes too.

There is actual research of the amygdala being crippled and shrunken in addition to my frontal lobe being under active. I used marijuana as an escapism for myself, but started developing paranoia as there is actual research that it can set off schizophrenia of you are predisposed to it. Do not invalidate someone else’s problems. I was suicidal and anxious as well, I still am. Marijuana no longer serves me anymore because I have no coping skills other than getting high.

I struggled with intense depression and disassociation growing up, to where I internalized it as just a part of who I am, then when I first encountered marijuana at 18 I felt like my world went from black and white to full color. Words like love and joy went from things I could recite textbook definitions of to actual experiences of profound depth and nuance I had no idea previously existed, it literally transformed and opened up who I am as a person and anyone who knows me would say it's like I'm an entirely different person now. But it also feels like those life lessons this substance may have had to teach me dried up years ago and now I DO feel dimmed and held back from reaching my full potential. I've never had such conflicted and confusing feelings about anything in all my life.

I found a great path to healing. His name is Jesus. Jesus took all of my pain, all of my suffering, trials and tribulations on Himself on the Cross. Jesus is the only one who died for the punishment of our sins and rose from dead to reveal His power over life and death. Because of Jesus, I am a new being. I don't need alcohol, marijuana or any other drug to push aside life's challenges. Jesus carries me through this life each and every day. And the most beautiful part of believing in Jesus is that someday after I die, I will join Jesus in Heaven. Heaven and Hell are real places and Jesus has prepared a place for those who believe in Him. I challenge you today to put your faith and trust in Jesus. He is more than able to heal you and make you a new being. Pray this simple prayer and ask Jesus to enter your life: Dear Heavenly Father, I thank you for sending your Son, the Lord Jesus to die on the Cross for my sins. I know I am a sinner. I know I have broken your laws. Today, I want to believe and receive Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior and follow Him only. Father, I pray for your healing and your protection over my life and those around me. I want to believe and receive Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior. In His precious and Holy Name I pray. Amen! Let me know how you are doing.

That was my experience. That's what made the decision to quit so hard to arrive at. It was beautiful just how much marijuana helped me with my depression. It wasn't just getting high. It felt like it taught me how to enjoy things. How to enjoy life. But now it makes it harder to put into action the lessons I learned. It makes it harder to even see that bit of truth with clarity.

I really need to stop, I’m losing all my motivation.

thank you for allowing me to see this video at the age of 16 and not 36. this did a lot for me and i can't thank you enough for sharing your story

I know a lot of people will probably disagree with this guy and make a bunch of excuses but I literally lined up with every single thing he said. When he was talking about finding yourself on the other side of sober ness I honestly started smiling out of hope because I have been searching for something like this. I can’t explain it but when you have deep turmoil within you your mind will seek out the answers. Thank you for this video man! I’m a 20 year old with little education but lots of ambition. Weed has dimmed that ambition and for a long time it made me feel less anxious, and really happy but now days it feels the opposite. I’m more anxious and sad because I feel the same problems that I’ve felt for a long time and with this information I am going to make a step to stop smoking.

That's society making those problems worse for you when you realize that weed isn't fulfilling your truest forms of excitement, which brings about the most gratifying chemicals. It's not marijuana that turns you lazy completely. It's a mindset that has been programmed into our psyche that we should become idle when using it, or increase our desires for consumption, which is all just reprogramming our uses of something that has such a power-effect on us.

Remember watching this video almost 5 years ago! It gets better guys, way happier now

The 11-minute mark is a powerful message! The world needs to hear this.

I smoked high thc weed for 10 years all day everyday. One day it turned on me and started giving me crazy anxiety and panic attacks, so I switched to 0%thc, high CBD weed and I'm now 14 days off THC. No withdrawal symptoms or anything. I used CBD to get off of weed and now I can just smoke a CBD joint whenever I feel like it, I don't have the need to smoke a joint anymore since CBD has no psycoactive effect,I don't have the need to fire up as soon as my ''high'' is gone like I had with thc. I just do it whenever I feel like it. I never thought I'd be able to quit weed but it went so easily.. for anyone who feels like it, try CBD and no thc, it will make it way easier than you think.

Following a relapse I always return to this video. It always makes so much sense. Day 1...now working towards 90 days (again). Have felt so depressed. I know it doesn't serve me at all. It needs to stop permanently. I'm losing myself. I can't do my job. I'm a mess. I need to stop smoking, gambling and porn. It's all related and it's destroying me and I'm wasting my life :( I can't cope waking up feeling like shit anymore and only wanting to smoke. It's also costing me a fortune. There must be more to life. (Will update this daily)

The Life Of Hebah Don’t give up. Or even be frustrated. It’s a fact that every time you try to quit, you get closer to quitting. This could be the time where you get momentum and finally Let it go. The reason you let it go is because it no Longer has relevance in your life. Something else is calling you. Allow the new thing to enter your Life. What I have found helpful is to Connect with other people who also have let it go. Even if it is just one person, that’s enough. We have a Recovery 2.0 Global Facebook Group. Join it. And post there that you are trying to move beyond this pattern, this behavior, this stickiness. You will find tremendous support coming at you. What do you have to lose? With Love, Tommy

Did you change? It's been 1 year later

This video is beyond amazing, one of the best on the topic of quitting cannabis and the comment thread is very inspiring. I'm in tears over how much I relate. I've tried to quit countless times and it breaks my heart that something we are told is benign can be so life shattering over time. Part of the reason I have found it near impossible to quit is the addict inside is convinced that I won't change and my life will be burdened no matter if I smoke or not- which is so untrue because whether we want to believe it or not, being high takes away so much from our lives. Good luck to everyone on this journey, we are in it together. I can't wait to discover the person I am free from the haze. Blessings to all.

I quit a month and a half ago To anyone struggling It does get easier ! Although you and your brain might think differently right now.. you don’t need it… It’s always better not to smoke if you do not have a really good reason to. It slows you down. You would always achieve more without it

The only way is to stop completely for me.

Same here, its been alittle over a month now and im still clean. The vivid dreams and nightmeres were the worst for me. So far so good. I know a lot of people who can smoke and quit no prob, im not one of them. Im a true addict, if i smoke one i just want to keep going and usually do for yrs and yrs. I think staying away from it is best for me, but not for everyone. Best wishes to everyone just trying to be better than they were yesterday. Love for all.

This video was the breakthrough for me when I started realising: I have to stop smoking weed. I've been smoking weed since 2015, and for the first time in my life, I'm doing a good job at staying clean, all because of this video and because of this man's energy. 'I'm someday going to stop smoking, I'm someday going to stop eating junk food after being high, so I don't really have to do it right now'. It's exactly the same as what's being said around 6:20. Thank you so much man, much appreciated.

Thank you, I'm going to watch this video everyday, especially when I feel weak. I started smoking at 14, I'm now 29. I've quit for 6 months at a time before, looking to quit for good. It's been hard to stop smoking weed, harder than I thought. But I will, I have to. 🙏🙏🙏

I’ve been smoking daily for 7 years. It almost feels as if I’ve forgotten what being sober (more than a work shift at least) feels like. Today was day 1 and it was hard, but I want to prove to myself that sobriety is attainable. I commend everyone making the attempt and we do it together in solidarity. Remember, “the mind will quit 1000 times before the body will”; stay resilient!
