Hey, I just started smoking weed 5 months ago but I used it for my MDD and anxiety, it was so bad that I took 4 different meds a day for months and it made me feel so much worse, I was still getting sent to mental hospitals but weed helped and still helps me out a lot, I smoke maybe 1-2 times a day on work days at the end of the day and smoke closer to 3 times on my off days, I don’t smoke much in a day though, maybe 0.50g or 1g of flower, I noticed it gave and still gives me purpose and motivation to go through life and helps me with my overthinking, but your videos really helped me realize to slow down, I probably won’t stop anytime soon because it really helps me out with my mental health but this really was a good way for me to learn moderation and I might just cut down even more soon. Thanks again bro

​@summernorman8456 what are you meaning though mate? You shouldn't even have tobacco or nicotine inside your blunt. Weed is supposed to be smoked in its entirety be it in a rolling paper or a bong, once you start adding other ingredients you take away from the actual weed itself. This translates to flavours and terpene profiling aswell as its also very unhealthy even more unhealthy than the weed itself. Think about it, some people make a spliff and then they first put tobacco in and then weed or vice versa its subjective some people put tobacco weed tobacco but the message is the same......weed is supposed to be smoked as it is, no adulterants, no chemicals, no tobacco, no nicotine no nothing apart from weed and blunt wrap, weed and bong, or weed and rizla.

Being sober has nothing to do with how long you've been sober. Stop counting days and count every time you turn down a spliff.

What I tell everyone and guess what you're right. Tony Robbins says the same thing, I felt more validation when I heard him say that

Almost daily toker for 15 years. Blessed to be a dad to my 4 yr old son. Weed is def addictive. Something that helps me when I have cravings is trying to remember what my purpose is, and that is to be the best Dad, husband, man I can be . A lot of parents will tell you "I would die for my child if I had to." While that may be true, will you live for them? Would you get yourself healthy? Would you eliminate distractions? Would you lead them more intentionally? You only have to die once. You have to live everyday. Do that.

Those who share their experiences don't know how much it helps when you're about to give up, it gives you the strength knowing somone who actully know what it's like to go through this tell you it's possible, it's not the same somone telling you you can do it when they have no idea what it's like, but hearing somone who knows what it's like that helps a lot since you understand it firsthand and made it out gives so much hope. so thanks for sharing.

I find that I want it every day but can still enjoy just about everything without it. The cravings tend to be mild, and once I get out of my head with mindfulness, I enjoy weed-free hobbies, socializing, and, of course, sobering obligations. I usually smoke 2 or 3 times a day but don't plan too forever, eventually it will just be a weekly edible. I'd say because it is manageable, euphoric, and thought-provoking for me, I feel no urgency to quit, but smoking is bad no matter what, and it contributes to the mildly addictive nature of THC and, of course, my daily addiction.

I've been postponing it since the end of 2021 and I've always thought I'd quit after I finish my stash but that never happened, that's why I just decided to chuck everything away yesterday because I was never going to stop without stopping ASAP.

Different strokes for different folks. I’ve used cannabis since 16 til now and I’m 32. It’s medically prescribed. Some people can function perfectly with weed. Obviously there’s people who don’t like it. But I regularly go on breaks from it and don’t find it addictive at all. I find it’s the best medication for mankind. But if it’s dosnt work for you, or is holding you back. Might have to re-think some things. It’s a miracle for a lot of people

@@daytond1012 I’m still totally sober from cannabis. According to the grounded app it has been 25 days. I work three 12 hour shifts at the hospital since I’m a nursing assistant. Yesterday was my Monday and I had a small concert to attend after work, so I brought a drink with me to enjoy during the show (they allowed people to BYOB). I think the combination of the alcohol and the music made me really want to go get some cannabis. I even sort of felt okay with it because I felt like I had accomplished something by staying sober this long, it’s a weird thought pattern of “now that i’ve stopped i can have a little” But the show went so late that the dispensary was closed by the end. I’m glad I didn’t because I know i would have had the cloudy groggy feeling this morning before work, which would probably make me want to have more weed to cope. The clarity and bandwidth I’ve gained in the last 10 days have really made it obvious how clouded my head was for so long. Something that is interesting is that my desire for processed sugar and caffeine have diminished a lot since stopping cannabis. I hope to cut those out completely in the next year. I am also hoping to use this increased mental capacity to start reading and journaling more. But I’m also trying to be conscious of not biting off more than I can chew. All in all I am feeling better every day but still have very mild headaches occasionally. I have found taking high quality electrolyte supplements and using breathwork have been very supportive. My dreams have been very very intense lately and the ability to breathe through my nose again is amazing. Especially at night while I sleep.

I quit from 21-33. Life got really great. I brought it back in though when I was having a lot of stress with work and some relationships. It became my fall back. Now I use it often but in smaller amounts and as long as I get my work done and my responsibilities then I can use it. You really have to know how to balance it out.

I started at 21, finally quit at 47. I've lost SOO much, all the while thinking I was making life easier on myself by doing it. I let it rob me of nearly a whole lifetime and I can't get it back, all it has left me with is the shell of myself and the feeling of emptiness. Regret isn't a strong enough word for me - if your reading this and thinking of quitting, don't leave it as late as I did, it has already taken something that you can't get back - don't let it take more!

I started smoking weed heavily when I was 35, and I have finally stopped at the age of 41. The entire 6 years was like being in a mentally abusive relationship. I felt great more than I felt bad, however it was a constant struggle to even care about the very basic things in life. I began to separate myself from my friends just because I was honestly too lazy to even care about my own self. Before I knew it, I was smoking from the moment I woke up at 3 a.m. until I would go to bed. I have a very addictive personality, so I had to remove it from my life all together. I feel awesome now, reconnected with some old friends, and actually don’t have brain fog all day long.

@@alexisalvarado8968people with enough chronic pain who need it controlled are allowed to depend on medication for that. There are much worse pain medication options than weed. It’s like the difference between someone with ADHD taking a prescription to correct a neurochemical imbalance and someone without ADHD taking it, getting addicted and wrecking their body and mind creating a neurochemical imbalance that didn’t exist previously because it gets them high. Taking something because before you started, you weren’t functioning properly, but when you did it helped you achieve normality that wouldn’t be possible otherwise, is very different from being okay before you started, and then developing a dependence on it to be okay after starting. You wouldn’t warn someone who can only take a few steps about becoming dependent on a wheelchair, or someone who struggles to see about wearing glasses.

If you are a heavy user (more than 5g daily, wake and bake, stoned 24/7) you might not be able to quit cold turkey without SERIOUS withdrawal, cutting down, starting later in the day might be a better approach. You can get used to spending a few hours each day sober and then reduce the amount you use during your stoned hours. Make edibles in order to break the smoking habit and then reduce the amount you put into your edibles, this will reduce your tolerance/addiction slowly and make the final break a LOT easier.

Around 2 months ago, one of your videos about quitting weed was recommended to me, it motivated me to make the choice to quit. I'm 6 weeks clean now and i've never felt better. It seemed impossible at first with the chronic insomnia, but i kept reminding myself of something you said in that video, "you'll sleep eventually". You truly helped me man, thank you

I am 106 days clean and sober today. Thank you Dr Frank!! I think I found you in my teen days lol. Your videos have helped me stop a 35 year addiction

I never came across a KZread channel anywhere near as helpful and potentially life changing.Thanks for the fantastic content

Im 4 days sober today. Thank you for helping me.

I got all my schooling done and picked up smoking weed later in life. I thought because I was older and “wiser” that it’d be no problem. 4 years later and I was addicted. I quit about 2 months ago, relapsed one weekend and it was miserable. Dr. Frank knows what’s up. I’m done w weed.

These videos are good. People often don't take weed addiction seriously till they realise they can't get through the day without a smoke or 5. I'm so glad I quit, but do mourn the years I spent half-present when I should have been learning formative social skills and advancing in life. Not to mention the many thousands I spent on it.

Even if relapse happens like after a lot of days sober, don’t smoke too much it’ll make you anxious(with underlying thought that I might start this heavy trip again). Appreciate yourself for being sober until you relapsed and again give importance to sobriety. Sobriety is quite underrated but it’s damn important. Listing down weed’s bad effects, watching such videos helps you develop anti-weed mindset. Having a schedule with productive activities to enhance yourself career wise helps a lot!

You’ve helped me so much Im about 3 weeks weed free and I feel amazing healthier more alive CHS was hell I appreciate you Doc.

Thank you for sharing your story, I am going on 2 weeks now of quitting weed completely and I am feeling better than ever!!! I have so much more energy, I have lost weight, and my depression has lessened once I started introducing exercise.

its been 5 days without weed now. been smoking near daily for the better part of the last 4 years. longest break i’ve had in that time was two months off weed and vaping. i am an absolute mess right now, but i know if i smoke again i will have come this far for nothing. sleep, appetite, energy, mood all just diminished. but i know its for the better. to everyone else taking a long break or quitting, best of luck. you are doing the right thing. you got this.

I came looking for something and came back with something I didn’t know I was missing. This video has changed my philosophy on life. Thank you

Awesome video man a lot of good information in this video .

I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you. I smoked weed daily for around 15 years. I was in it heavy, I was 100% addicted. I had some extremely close calls with the law, wasted a ton of money, lost some really great opportunities and seriously messed up my relationships. I realized one day, about 14 months ago, that I needed to stop. It wasn't until I found your videos that I actually did. I have a super addictive personality, so I decided to find something helpful to get addicted to. For me it has been weightlifting. I pretty much overnight exchanged the high of pot for the high of the gym. I know in reality a more thorough solution would be to figure out why I get so obsessed with certain patterns, but for me so far it's been a game changer. I got way more effective in my career, my relationships got so much better and I was finally able to be there for the people I love- but it did not fix everything. I went into quitting thinking it would just solve every problem I had in life, honestly the first 6 months almost felt worse. I remember telling my friends, "why did I even quit, my life is worse now". The reality is it was getting much better, and it continues to get better, but like you said in one video- a lot of us self medicate, and if we've been doing that for many years we have circumvented how to actually deal with those problems and feelings we were running from with drugs. One day I was in my friends car, expressing my frustration over how quitting wasn't the solution I was looking for and she said to me "I do not think that's true at all, you are 100x more present, fun, trustworthy and accountable than you ever were before, I couldn't really trust you'd come through before and now I'd be shocked if you didn't". To me that was really all I needed to hear to keep it up. Anyway, for anyone dealing with quitting, it is worth it, it's a long game, but there is virtually no situation I can think of where you won't become a better version of yourself if you stick it through.

I'm 4 months sober after starting to get panic attacks from smoking weed. Trauma in my life changed me and I can't smoke anymore. I never realized how much it negatively effected me. Stay strong ❤

Good perspective. It's different for everyone, as is the case with about anything we put into our bodies. I've smoked every day for the last 25 years, have a family, run a company, and have received great benefits from it. But, I have Tourettes/ADHD/OCD and it has helped me tremendously there. If it's not working for you, or getting in the way of your functionality, then it's probably not for you. I don't drink alcohol because of this, it's a net negative for me and just makes me tired.

I am six days sober. Thank you for your contact it really helps.

I started smoking weed when I hit 18 and got out of high school, I’m totally aware and acknowledge that weed is a double edged sword but my justification is this: everyone needs something to get them from A to B to C, been smoking almost every day for 2 years and I want to say this. You don’t need things to keep yourself going not at all, but weed is one of the ones that is easiest to keep around if you really have to choose.

Just wanted to pop in and say thanks! Between Zyn pouches and Juul/disposables, I used to be consuming some form of nicotine practically every moment I was awake. Tried to quit a few times but always picked it up again a few weeks later until I found your channel. Been nicotine free since August!

Wow thank you !! One of my favorite videos by you so far. I feel attacked with how much this one resonates. 🤣🤣 but I know it’s all out of love . Thank you for making me look at life differently ❤️

I stopped about 2 weeks ago I smoke for the most part of 30 years . Thanks for your support

Just wanna say you inspired me to give it up after 5 years of almost daily use - started to see textbook addiction signs, continuing to escape/avoid life despite having everything going for me. There was a time where it saved my life, and despite some success it's now holding me back Biggest insight was that when I tried to quit in the past I was experience withdrawal - it wasnt proof that I "need it" in a medical sense. A whole lot of false beliefs are falling away from that alone Thank you

Day two! I've been smoking for almost two decades and was an every day smoker and during the past year I started selling and was smoking an oz a week. Even though I didn't loose money on it at all cause of how I did it..... I completely lost myself. I did NOT quit cold turkey but an oz a week turned into an oz a month and than finally yesterday I said fuck it and flushed what was left and passed it along to the next person. Weed won't kill you like other drugs but it will change you and for me at least I didn't realize what was happening until it was almost two late. I've never really had addiction issues until I tore my shoulder in 2020 and got on percs...although I didn't take those long...it def changed my mind and I became a junkie of sorts. I gotta say.... WEED SAVED MY LIFE in some ways during this time but after a while the unsettling realization of..."Your shoulder doesn't hurt anymore" kept getting louder and louder.... until I had to come to terms with that fact that I was addicted to smoking weed. I am thankful for your channel and the resources you provide as I have been stoned out of my mind watching for months now and all your advice I am putting to use. Thank you.

On Pete Holmes' show, Bo Burnham said that he doesn't like how weed has become the standard go-to thing to do whenever there's any free time. Like, how little do we value our free time that we waste it getting high instead of going out and taking part in life?

Thanks, Dr. Frank. I'm 61 and have been a binge user of marijuana and alcohol since I was about 18. I quit 5 days ago, and I'm through the worst of it, although now feelings of shame are coming up pretty hard. I was originally thinking that I was going to stop "for now," with the expectation that I would eventually return to using in six months or whatever time limit I set for myself. Your videos are making me consider quitting entirely, for good. In particular, your thoughts on "romanticizing" weed and "stoner talk" (addictive thinking) were very insightful and helpful. Thanks again for your work.

@@Denise-kc8np Actually I’ve been through all the phases of addiction to weed. Once a week to twice every day. There were a couple of months when I used to smoke thrice every day. I smoked daily for around 3 years and let me tell you daily smoking pot affects you definitely. The worst thing when you smoke daily is after a point you’ll require more quantity of substance to get the same high. So that becomes a vicious cycle. I faced too many bad effects of weed in my 3 years of total usage, enough for me to develop an anti-weed mindset.

I’m almost a week sober from weed. I’ve tried quitting and telling myself tomorrow I’ll stop or next week I’ll stop more times then I can count. Two weeks ago I was rushed to the hospital because I got really high like I normally did but this time I thought I was about to have a heart attack. I’ve always had anxiety but I just realized now that smoking weed daily, multiple times a day enhanced it so much to the point where I had a panic attack because my anxiety was through the roof. I started feeling very disconnected from reality and even after a week sober I still am. I hate this feeling, life doesn’t even feel real anymore I feel like each day I’m losing myself more and more. I don’t know what to do. I know withdrawal symptoms are serious but this feels like it’s more then that. Deep down I don’t want to stop smoking because that’s how I coped for so long, it was the only thing that gave me reassurance. Even deeper down I know I need to stop but I can’t envision a life without getting high and numbing my unresolved pain/problems. How do I cope with this feeling? Will it go away or have I permanently fucked up my mental. I need this feeling to go away because I’m so lost and troubled and I don’t know what to do or think anymore. It’s so hard to put into words how I feel, it doesn’t even make full sense to me how I’m feeling but I know something is really wrong. Any advice is appreciated.

Hey Man, I totally get where you’re coming from. I’m a week sober now and I feel exactly how you feel. This feeling of just constant unease like it’ll never pass but trust me it will, the only thing you really need to do is convince your mind that it will eventually. You’re going through withdrawal and it’s making you feel like complete shit, and that’s good because it’s your brain reworking itself back to its normal state. The first few months are never easy, and hell this is my 10th time trying to quit weed so believe me when I say that I know it’s not easy but with the right support and guidance you do anything you put your mind to. What I suggest is take some time out of your day to just think. Just take 10 or 5 minutes and sit with your thoughts, and ask yourself what normally would make me happy without weed. Your brain definitely knows what makes you happy even if you try to deny it. For me what makes me happy is just simple things like cooking, video games, and just enjoying the life around me. It might not be as simple for you but little things like that can be a start to help you overcome what you’re feeling. I hope I could help you in some way with these words, much love and take care ❤.

It's crazy how an addicted mind can convince itself that you can put a timeline on quitting, and actually execute on it. It actually makes it harder to quit when you say you'll quit at a certain time, then to just quit immediately.

That would be incredible. Thank you so much. Can't explain how much your videos are getting me through this. I used to be a drug and alcohol key worker myself - but very difficult to practice what you preach when it's yourself. Thanks again Dr. Frank.

Insidious. I broke away after almost getting a dui. And I started to feel good bout being non drunk and non high.

amazing video man
