@@monkmode_11 Yes indeed. I would never want to enter that low frequency vibe again.. I once again get micro dopamine hits from random thoughts on life and just being self-aware.. reading is also possible now and conversations can go anywhere I want like a branching tree. We think smoking makes life more interesting but it doesn’t. There’s nothing like having a clear mind, not even the best high can compare. 🤘

You want to know something. I smoke cannabis but I fucking hate chronic alcoholics that drink and cry and wine. They need cbd and thc. They need God. They need to shut their mouths and quit depressing their minds with a drink that is so much more powerful then cannabis. THC and CBD are both cannabinoids that improve a person's developmental brain cell growth

I started in 1978 too at age 12 (big regret) i loved "the escape" but i'm pretty sure it reshaped my whole destiny until i was 22 i quit for 3 years and started again because i felt more confident and was 25 ready to rock it in a new big city.. Boy was i wrong, i wasted a lot of time, believed in the wrong people again, "the cool factor"' planted it self in my thoughts again. I pretty much was a part time/full time user for 18 more years and quit for ONLY 1 year at 43 because my g/f passed away and i started back daily for the next 13 years! now 57 i'm 1 week off of THC and i'm not going back this time!!! ....to any young guys reading this, don't fall into the trap that you're a cool modern dude or a hip girl because you burn.. the shits too strong and will rob you of better decisions trust me. I believe Our creator made cannabis for very sick or dying people because it helps you eat, drink and keeps your mind off things..it's a med but if ur healthy it's not the way to go.

I agree. Another point- smoking weed suppresses your emotions. I smoked weed every night in college, mostly to escape reality because I was suppressing the fact that I hated my classes and was too afraid to switch my major. Smoking weed stops you from feeling those "bad" feelings, and prevents you from taking action to change your life for the better. ALSO, my intuition was clouded and I couldn't trust myself to make decisions. I especially agree with your "dark cloud" point - my mood would be terrible for half of my day after smoking at night. It really messes with your pleasure system and blocks you from experiencing the smaller joys in life.

All I see are these positive comments and videos about "quitting weed" I'm 8 weeks sober and still feel like crap, still feel no motivation, etc. But when I was growing my own organic supply I felt great, I felt more outgoing, was crushing the gym, meeting my daily macros , etc. I believe some people benefit from it since it is used as medicine if you research and smoke the type you need, most people just smoke not "needing" it. I did tell myself I'll give myself 100 days and compare and if I feel like I benefit more I'll go back. So far on day 50ish I'm leaning more of going back.

@@goodluck I'm at 87 days straight, and I still feel depressed. (Only had a gram in the last 110 days) - 90 days is the time it takes just to get rid of metabolites in your fat cells (some of these are 6 x more psychoactive than THC and because your tolerance is so low they can give you a 'high/stoned' feeling at random times. (non of the dopamine pleasure, just swirly headed/confused part of the high in my experience) It can take up to 14 MONTHS for your brains dopamine system to fully re-wire / re-balance. Before you go back/re-lapse (if you haven't already) check out Addiction Mindset, he's totally nerdy but his vids cover some angles that I never saw. I always used to relapse (25 yr smoker) because of depression. Now I know that the depression is part of the addiction recovery and must be gone through...I'm never consuming THC again either way. If I feel like this in another 5 months, I'll just have to live with it. I don't think that will be the case, there are no videos on here of ex-smokers who regret it, you have to go 365 before you know for sure. It's up and down for what seems like forever. But remember how LoOoOoNg that first 3 days/3 weeks was? It definitely gets easier. I can clearly see it as a crimpling addiction now. I used to just micro dose to minimize the down sides, but I was always thinking about my little daily dose and memory loss is a tricky thing, as you don't remember what you don't remember.

That is an incredible video. I had tried quitting weed several times, usually every year I try to travel for a week and stay sober because that's the most I can do. A few years ago I got sober for like 50 days and it was amazing, but after the relapse I could never stay like this for more than 2 weeks. If you are reading this and you still struggle with weed, please try your best to quit.

Another thing about weed and sleep is that it supresses your REM sleep which is the stage of sleep where you dream and honestly the dreaming part is my favorite part of the journey of quitting weed.

Those withdraws were hard but I failed to turn weed habits into new habits which led me back. Now I’m 25 enrolling into college and I’m ready to put down weed & nicotine (vaping) forever. They’ve both killed so much of my childhood development…

Finding that Sweet Spot while completely sober is the real "High on Life" feeling I want to be one with. One with life. No chemicals to cloud my perception of this beautiful existence. I'm 64 years old and can honestly say that being healthy mentally and physically is the best high you could find. The rest (Drugs, Alcohol, Gambling, etc) is just a smoke screen interfering with our perception of reality. Straight is the new "High". Find the "High" without altering reality and you will find the miracle in living. Just My 2 Cents.

I’m 19 rn, and since the age of 16 I started smoking weed, and its quickly turned into an issue. I feel what you say where you’re social skills are irreversibly damaged, and I think it might have to do with the amygdala being smaller in those who smoke weed. Especially during the developmental stages, weed is 100 percent a bad idea.

Yeah because kids shouldn't be smoking that shit. If you wait to use it as an adult you benefit more from it's medicinal properties. My brother started smoking herb at 16 too and it messed up his social development. I got into weed after getting hurt in Iraq when I was 24. I didn't suffer any of the negative effects on your cognitive development because I was already a socially competent man. You kids getting into weed at 13-18 are ridiculous you're ruining a good thing. Wtf do you fools need drugs for at that age anyway? You don't even have real problems as a kid unless you're in an abusive home which I'm sure was not the case for most people here who started smoking early. The trouble you're causing is so unnecessary.

I think, in great moderation, used medicinally, weed can be helpful for some people with sleep issues. It may not be a permanent solution, but sometimes non-perfect sleep from weed is better than the non-perfect sleep you might have gotten anyways had you not taken it. As a caveat, I think edibles are healthier because they don't impact lungs.

Have heard so many similar things from many other KZfaqrs about quitting weed and I always love to hear more from others to reinforce the idea, spot on video. I would also say this for sure applies to alcohol and any other substance that one is dependent on and is hindering growth in many areas of life. Thank you💙

I’m trying to quit. Been smoking for 14 years, pretty much everyday. I’m 27 years old and I feel like I still don’t know what my passions are. I am a hard worker, and enjoy working out, but I’m always looking forward to that good high pretty much once an hour. It’s bad. But I’m done with it. I know that it isn’t serving me anyone and only holding me back. I have a 2 year old daughter and since she was born I feel guilty every time I’m high but it’s the only that’s brought me peace for so long. I’m ready but I’m scared and anxious to quit.

For young people your body is still developing and growing and smoking weed blocks ,harms, damages your growth, and social skills. Weed affected my interactions in high school and at gatherings when I stared at a tv off for hours and talk less to girls and friends. I was addicted and weed was all I thought about. So I stopped and hated weed, for changes in productivity and to think clearly, and regret those poor interactions.

Wow man, you're incredibly articulate. I held complete focus on your words throughout the entire video which I don't do often. This really helped reinforce why I chose to become sober in the first place, and even introduced me to new ways of looking at the detriments of smoking weed on a routine basis. Earned a like from me and a subscriber, great video!

It's only addictive to some people, about 10%. Same as alcohol, gambling probably other things. But then again even heroin can be used recreationally by some people without issues of addiction. (Not me personally, I got hooked on the chronic for 25 yrs...probably kept me of alcohol, but still crushed my potential in life, so far.) Now i've quit 100%, and nicotine.

I’ve had mixed results socially, but often it depends on how much you take and whether you feel more or less anxious high. A small toke can completely open you up for example. Completely agreed with the other aspects though, feeling so much better sober 🙏🙏
@getalife214
@getalife214 11 ай бұрын
I've never had an anxious high after the first time. Sounds like you were already anxious and it was just amplified by the weed. You should take that as a sign to work on your anxiety, not that the thing you ingested is bad. People take psychedelics for this exact reason. Being sober is nice though, I like to take week long breaks every time because a period of low dopamine following a period of high dopamine forces you to form positive habits or else you feel numb and bored

One of the best videos I’ve seen , and funny too ! You made some great points on a lot of things ! that cheap dopamine really opened my eyes! we all have our times I guess playing around with weed, when u younger , but especially when you get a little older u realize like you’re saying get high on life, the weed is just a vicious cycle. that just keeps leaving you weak and tired! I used to like it to get enhancement to do surfing and other sports, but when you quit it you really do get enhancements that lasts ! and clarity and energy and I think you do things even better , that’s better than the cheap dopamine high that you have to keep going back to I’ve been a stoner for a long time ducking down under my car window before I go surfing , hitting a pyrex bowl I’ve been pretty moderate and I’ve taken brakes before , but I quit now for six months cause some shit went down at work , but I think I’m done for good and your video is a big help

its crazy cause i doubt any 13-16 year old watching this is going to realize or be aware that this is actually happening to them and will just try to deny and deny. When i was 16 and smoked occasionally i liked it and all, but when i started working at that age i started buying and smoking every single day, then i realized that it started becoming difficult and almost awkward to actually socialize with newer friends (most of my new friends were from work at this time and this started after month 3 of daily smoking after work). I was just so unaware as a person i had no idea what was going on with me at the time or why i was feeling like this however it was a feeling i was used to because of my past, so i never even tried to find a solution or a reason to it, i just knew it is what it is lets try to manage

This is a really good analysis and I sent it to a stoner friend whom I think really needs to hear this. His addiction to weed is ruining his potential--and, arguably, his life. ... One point I think you should consider, Ron, is that there are so many men who did not grow up with any strong male role model that provided them with a good value system; I see a lot of young men who, because of this, don't have the same level of potential that you do (re: discipline; baseline intelligence; analytical thinking; capacity for delayed gratification, etc.). I feel like the powers that be are normalizing weed usage in the west so that un/low-skilled people (esp. men) are knee-capped/neutered. Already we see an increase in fatherless boys... I feel like "the powers that be" are crippling the potential of men in the West--warehousing them in their parents' basement, placating and poisoning them with TV, porn, videogames, processed foods/seed oils, and WEED.

This is an amazing video. Thank you. I am over 2 months free from weed right now. It is 8pm and part of me want to watch Netflix and space out like I used to. But a bigger part of me wants to put on some chill music and do homework. I would rather have that reward from a little pain, than some mindless numbing. The music definitely helps get the dopamine flowing.

ive been smoking since i was 10 and i just turned 29, weed never killed my social skills nor did it stop me from finding my purpose or mess up my daily grind. I taught myself how to trade forex without a mentor while being mostly high, anywhere i went i could talk to anyone even the people that didn't normally talk. The biggest diffrence between me and most people i know that smoke is my ability to stop whenever i need to. Right now i just stopped going on 3 months, because i felt like it still roll up for my brother, and im around it being smoked everyday. Self control and discipline is what a lot of people will have problems with not weed.
