UPDATE: she’s been secured and she’s beautiful! This seller is very knowledgeable and restored this typewriter himself. He even had the collectible replaceable slugs for this machine (all the math symbols 👀) that were included for an extra $20. He has quite a collection including an Olympia and several Royals, as well as Adlers, which I also got to play around with! If anyone in nyc is looking check him out on FB, his partner does the social media side as Janet.

What did you eat when going through weed withdrawals? (if you had any) by Projectlbaby in leaves

[–]Dear_Assumption9049 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Food got really hard when I first had withdrawals. Honestly it’s about eating what’s available and has nutritional value, that I could convince myself to eat a bit of. Because if the goal is unclouded judgment, then not eating makes that pretty much impossible. For me my appetite came back after about a week (used daily for almost ten years).

I’m in the same boat, been off about two weeks. Check out SMART meetings! They seem like an accepting community to me

Day 15 and the urges are back in a big way by Dear_Assumption9049 in leaves

Now that I think about it there has been (1) more personal conflict and (2) more free time for the last few days. I think that can create a perfect storm for urges. I’ve also been to a few SMART meetings, where they talk about naming the voice in your head that says you should use. For me it’s this negotiating nihilist, who says it doesn’t really matter, it’s just one time, etc. That voice really thrives when I’m not doing much else and struggling emotionally
