1 week sober and no turning back! First day was hard! Second day was a little stressful, but now after a week I feel AMAZING! I haven’t felt normal again since 5years

Day 44 of no smoking 💪🏽 I’m really proud of myself.

Been clean for 2 months. My mind is SOOO much clearer now that I stopped. I plan on trying it again in the future, but when priorities and stuff come up, it is ESSENTIAL that you quit. It really does kill your motivation.

Bro, ive never had depression or aniexty but ever since I started smoking, ive always had it and its so weird

My problem is extreme boredness, I’m fine but I just get so damn bored and don’t know what to do and I want to smoke so bad

Weed stifles one's personality. It makes some people slow and socially awkward. I feel alot more vibrant since quitting

Does anyone get that feeling when your high, you've lost yourself. Or that your not as happy as you used to be. I'm not the same ever since I've been smoking and I'm ready to quit but its so hard because its the only thing the helps me eat or sleep.

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!

Ive been smoking for 33 years pretty much daily. I've been sober 4 days. I love weed but I love my money even more. I gotta quit man.

I am a university student of 22 years that lives in Barcelona that is saturated because of marijuana. I wanted to thank you because you have been the only person who has explained in an unbeatable way the reality of a smoker and I have felt more identified than ever. After your speech I have more strength to leave her and become that person that I have been hiding for a long time. I will remember each of your words during my progress. Thanks from Spain.

I'm 48 yrs old...most of the people who I know, that smoke heavy, are having economic trouble. Enough said

Smoking weed is fine till it gets into your daily routine, I have failed to do this

12 years daily smoker wake and bake . Im DONE

I wish everyone who watched this the very best. Overcoming the grip just takes time. tomorrow and every day after i promise will feel better.

Yesterday I had my last joint.. destroyed all equipment and flushed that pot I had down the toilet .. I'm retaking control of my mind and life. Thanks for the video

“What people don’t realize is that you can get a lot higher without drugs than with them” - Hunter S Thompson

Anyone else watching this while stoned? Yeah I'm not going to stop.

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.

I'm going to find a white castle then I'm quitting tomorrow

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.

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

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 KZfaq Chanel. And I started packing on some good weight again.!!! If I want to quit. Quit!!! It is not impossible

i'm stuck in a deadly cycle of buying $50 sacks of flame , getting high and then flushing the entire sack down the toilet and smashing my 1 hitter with a sledge hammer. EVERY OTHER DAY

Bro I’ve never heard anyone break this experience down like this but it’s spot on especially with avid users. It definitely controls what you do and who you are.

I smoke one joint per week and still feel like i need to stop it because sometimes i tend to loose the sense of clarity so it makes me wonder how difficult it is for those daily smokers.Weed isnt good in a longrun hence its better to stay away from it for the better future.

thanks for this video. You said the exact thing I hardly wanted to say out to myself. Your explanation is great brother. It helps alot! thank you so much!

Great video, Wise words. I have been smoking for 15 years now. the reason i want to quit is to make something of my music career before its too late. I am at day 1 now. wish me luck.

I've been smoking way to much for the last couple of years to run from stress. I hate it.

I can't imagine how much money 💰 I have spent on it ......especially in countries that think 10/15 dollars 💵 a gram is normal .......the weed is a waste of life and money 💰 and makes you a procrastinator ..... I can say that I wished I'd never started ... it's a drug and drugs are bad simple as

One of the best videos ive seen! Thanks alot will watch this again :)

Such a great video, thanks for putting it out there!

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.

Being a teenager is tough when you get heavy on it. I spend way too much money on it and i dont even want to do it anymore. Every Time i get bored I automatically think of it. I had a job and it got better but the damn quarantine is tough.

probably the best video on why to quit smoking or using marijuana.. when you’re a teenager it’s fun and “different” kinda like a whole new life experience but you are so spot on with your points and how it can become excuse to be less productive and to be free from your stress with the real world. i like to live life like if i was still in my child-like mindset, being in tune with what’s around me and taking life for granted even if i’m stressed.

You explained it from a different view than any other video I have seen. Thank you. I needed this

I’m 16 and I smoke everyday but now I’m tired of weed and everything about it. I’m gonna stop because I want to think smarter and just go on with my life without having to be high all the time I also feel like I lm not me at some points ... i wish I stop this month

I quit May 15 due to I started having panic Attacks as soon as I would smoke. Use to use it for anxiety and look what ultimately happen. Was a daily smoker for 5 years. Sleeping is difficult still and I'm having depression, but now I drink chamomile 6-7 cups a day and it helps me sleep a lot. My motivation is barely starting to come back this week. Brain fog is still present at times. I lost all social skills, but hopefully I go back to normal soon. All this is true in the vid though 👍🏼

This was so spot on is scary

Thanks for this man!

great video, thank you 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.

Great info dude! Thanks!!!

It changes my identity. Your so right because when I’m clean I’m so hyper so happy and once I smoke and I get sober people have even told me hey what’s wrong with you I see you different.

thank you for this i needed to hear this

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!

Great video ! Great Message!!

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 😘

I smoke herb daily and up to this point no one has ever been able to give me any good reasons not to. But you gave several pertinent reasons to stop or at least cut down considerably. I identified with all of the examples you gave.

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.

Best advice indeed dude thank u for sharing

It helps to have something you’re trying to achieve that out weights the feeling of being high.

Spot on man , you nailed it home with one strike ...

Thanks alot. This video has really helped me.

thank you man, ive seen this video several times, it is the best video about quitting weed, i am like this is like my 5th time i quit and ive been off for long now. when you said that you manifest things and they get deluded and you never actually make them happen you enter this cycle that will bring you down and this is the real danger of smoking pot for some people, it changes you and you dont know who you are anymore. beautiful video take care!

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

Really weird how this came up in my recommended after not searching for it or anything related to it. I needed to see this. Everything you said was spot on. I really need to quit. Im 21, been smoking since I was 13 (had a year sober at 17-18, I was pregnant). It’s time for me to take a new path. Thank you for this.

thanks for the perspective homie

Good stuff, very well said.

Absolutely spot on! Been without for about a month after trying 5 or 6 times previously.Everything is changing for the better. It has removed the lathergy to move forward in my career..funny thing is, I wasn't even that aware of how much I was missing.. just sort of knew it was time. As a music producer I always had this idea that weed was the key to tapping into my best creative self.. couldn't be further from the truth! Its videos and writings like this that have kept me from slipping back. I have done more towards my life goals in the last month than I have in prob 4 years without that devious lil herb. Cheers bud! all the best :)

You sir are a genius respect for putting this video out this is very very true a lot of people will disagree with this video but that’s because they are in denial

Thnks a lot for this video man

Thanks buddy. It really helped me.

Im going to be 30 in 2 weeks, i have smoke since im 13, i realy want to make my self the gift of life and stop smoking, i know i have a problem and i need help, your video inspires me

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

Thanks, mate, that was very inspirational, well Spoken.

Thank you for making this video.

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.

I can actually say this was really helpful

GREAT video my man !!!

Wonderful video!

Looking for some hapiness but there is only loneliness to find

My girl says the spliff take the soul from me

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've poured through these types of videos and you're speak it the most true. Thank you for helping so many others

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

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!!

Respect makin this video sir, authenticity there is

you explain this so well. Thank you

I been smoking heavy for about 6 years straight. I get sick the same day if I run out a few hours later. I need help

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

Ok I’m half way through this video and I had to stop and comment to tell you this is by far the best video I’ve seen on marijuana addiction and answers to questions I ponder myself having quit several times just to always end up back using it again! Wow, thanks!

really good points..thanks :)

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

How to stop smoking weed step one, stop smoking weed, step two, that's it cuz there is no physical addiction cuz I'll smoke every day for six months then I'll take a tolerance break for 3 months n come back for another six

Thank you for sharing this. Really appreciated the part where you asked, "Would I want to see people I love start using marijuana?" It was striking to hear you say no because you wouldn't want it to steal your children's joy. That's such real and wise insight. Very helpful, brave and transparent post! Thanks again!🔥

do you believe the weed effect is the same for social wine and beer drinking. as in a person isn't the same.

I can't quit smoking someone help me not a joke if ur reading this dont start its addicting asfuc

Im stoping By my local dispensery

what do you think about cbd hemp? That's not harmful to smoke. I relieves pain, anxiety, depression, and helps with sleep. i'm going to try some of that soon.

Spot on with the ideas.

I'm suffering thru this so bad right now!!!!:(

This P.E. Teacher is straight recording this on his lunch in his little P.E. Office on god

Thank you for this video.

I’m 12 days sober and i won’t go back to smoking. I smoked marijuana everyday for 9 years and the last 4 years I smoked pretty much all day. My quality of life is better already and I’m proud of my sobriety. If you’ve been thinking of quitting, do it and your future self will thank you.

Damn yo I broke down cuz of this yday

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.

Great perspective. Thank you :)

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...
