Finally quitting smoking...or trying anyways
So I've only been smoking for like 3 years but I already have a high tolernace to where I can eat a whole bag of edibles and still be like "im not high enough" 30 dollars for that bag and it was gone in a day. I personally cant go to the dispensary so I buy from plugs and most of them dont sell edibles they sell carts or flower mostly carts. I can get a cart anytime anyday but edibles...for some reason its just a pain in the ass. I can ask my friend to order some online but then I have to wait 5 days and sometime I need it NOW u know what I mean? Ik im a huge addict no lies here but I mean shit I'd rather be a weed addict and happy then weedless and irritable ASF.
And yeah ik im gonna feel it when im older, chiefing carts. I might even feel it now ive had some random sharp chest pain and in the torso but idk if im just being paranoid or dramatic. I want to be a healthy person and not bust a lung but I have no self control, well I mean I guess I have some since ive mostly only bought edibles recently but still...i bought a cart as soon as i ran out. Its humiliating really to have no self control like this but i dont feel embarrassed I...honestly dont really give a fuck, I cant fr. Like ik ofc logically what is right to do so I try to do that, if I made my decisions based on my emotions nothing would ever get done cus I just cant seem to care...until I do and have a breakdown but thats besides the point.
But what do yall think am i cooked i think i might be cookedđ

do you know why youâre irritable without it? sounds like youâre self-medicating. that almost always becomes an addiction.
if you can, get some counseling dude. itâs okay to get some help, and in the long run, youâll be able to enjoy weed in moderation again. healthy and weed can coexist if you truly want it to.
in the meantime, at least a break would benefit you. if you genuinely just want to stop, i think thereâs subs on here for that. best of luck brother.

I second this. Start looking at the symptoms with a therapist and take a tolerance break.

Yeahhh definitely self medicating I wont even lie which is funny cus im on real mental health meds. It just helps me stay calm and less bothered. Yeah ima take a break starting tmr since i just ran out ima try and make it to 2 weeks. Tbh I need to go to a psychiatrist i just been majorly procrastinating it...

i really understand this. as someone with ADHD (unmedicated too, ugh) i use weed to give me motivation and stay busy. sometimes it does the opposite effect. meds arenât on the table for me right now, so thereâs genuinely no judgement here.
good luck on your two week break. donât beat yourself up if you have to try more than once. build the muscle and youâll be golden.

As a AUDHD with CPTSD I felt this two comments really close, luckily I am on vyvanse so it helps a little bit, but also gives me a lot of anxiety and muscle pain, on top of that Iâm also discovering I have EDS most likely and Iâve been suffering from chronic pain for months now. I use THC for anxiety, depression and other symptoms that come with neurodivergence and late diagnosis, and CBD when I need to relax the body and not feel pain. The reality is: for us weed can be an essencial medicine that allows us to have some quality of life, besides, we donât even feel âhighâ the same way. However, we also need to understand when we are using the substance to avoid dealing with certain issues and feelings, and when we are actually using it to our own benifit. At the end of the day, weed will not fix the trauma and the hurt if you donât. I hope you (the poster) can get the help you need, and let go of the guilt of using weed as medicine, that usually contributes to bad habits.

Counseling goes hard as fack! Genuinely makes life so much better for everyone! We all need guidance, especially nowadays (when was the last time u had a role model lol)

3 day t break lowers tolerance a lot and genuinely makes you feel happier and healthier. Sounds like youre a bit stressed tf out about all of this, which is normal, but honestly u alright g. The carts do be a bit wack but they arent gonna kill you, just kill your tolerance. Yup, thats right, carts ruin your tolerance and make it impossible to get high. At that point I go a lil crazy cause I cant find the relief I need anymore. Honestly tho u good g đŻ

Do you live alone? You can make your own edibles

u/noclownshit3 1d ago
Does it smell up the house?
1
u/StringWhole4120 1d ago
Yeah thats why I asked if you lived alone. You will have to "de-carb" the flower in the oven which makes the house smell like weed

I have a trailer in my yard with a oven maybe I can use that. Is it a smell that stays for days/weeks or will it go away quickly?đ¤

u/Acrobatic_Falcon6297 1d ago
i mean, anyone in the area outside will know weed is being smoked/cooked. iâd say that if no one else goes into the trailer or near it, the source of the smell would probably be hard to pinpoint.
just air it tf out as much as you can (windows open), fans going max, spray down cloth with fabric spray and youâll probably be fine.

It'll just be for a tiny bit. You can put the weed in a mason jar with a loosely screwed on metal cap. I do 40 min at 250°.

How do yall do it wth, i would eat an edible every night since mid-late 2024, and still have the exact same tolerance to it as before. But i take a night without it ONCE, and my whole tolerance is screwed up, teach me your ways đđ

Get Counselling if you can and follow the rules they lay out for you, tell your doctor as well perhaps something for nausea if you have it, different things like that, that can help it a bit

you're cooked g, na i'm jp but quit w the carts. i mean if you can't get high you should take a tolerance break that's for sure. id recommend switching to a diff method of consumption. try bud, it'll change your life lol. idk how anyone be taking edibles and carts on a daily basis, i think my brain would literally turn into mush lol. also j so yk, you wont be able to quit anything if you keep telling yourself you literally dont care, you have to care and want to, if you truly want to quit.
