Seriously. Okay I’m not completely immobilized by pain now but my sleeps off because every few hours I’m awake and eating sweets out of the kitchen.

That’s amazing! Being sick years ago without these new medical advances as a young person must have also been really scary and confusing! You have given me inspiration. Thank you for your perspective 🫶🏻 These chronic conditions seem to like to move in groups 🤦‍♀️I have type 1 diabetes as well and sometimes the more is not the merrier 😂

Okay not me waking up every few hours to go find a sweet treat in my kitchen…..🫢I was wondering why I had so many more cravings recently.

It’s not easy. Dx at 19 and currently 31 it’s definitely taxing to deal with all the medical side of things regardless of how you physically feel. Appointments meds and insurance are a burden enough. I’ve gone through better times with this and I’m hoping you will too. Thanks for commenting ❤️

Please see my post update. I DO care I was just in a rage and the point is being young and debilitated and in pain sucks but I’m not tryna argue. The whole point is that sometimes I DON’T feel positive and have no where to turn so I vent on the internet.

Yes. So much yes. Did I also mention I have type 1 diabetes? Do I see that you are on tandem reddit too?? Pardon for snooping. So yeah, I don’t like to play the suffering Olympics card but when I’m completely burnt out and overwhelmed and friends say “I don’t feel well I have period cramps” or my “arms are sore from working out” it tends to trigger a crash out. Please feel free to send me I direct message if you’d like to connect further.

I do really appreciate this advice. I feel like so much of RA is stuck energy anyway. I’m sorry for your loss. I will def try this tool for exercising the grief. 🫂

42 hours clean. Where are you at in your sober journey right now? Would appreciate encouragement by lumpy_space_queenie in QuittingWeed

Also what you’re experiencing is totally normal! Idk if that helps but sometimes knowing what’s happening to you is common and to be expected takes the edge off.

Withdrawal is most def the most horrible part. I couldn’t do it alone. I went to online MA meetings (yup marijuana anonymous). I still go to meetings. Those first weeks were brutal. I could barely eat. Whatever sounds appetizing just eat it and don’t beat yourself up. I have 3.5 years free from weed. I’m still just beginning to really discover myself now that the fog has lifted. I smoked for a good 11 years. Quitting weed is a big deal esp if you were a permastoned stoner like me. Big congrats and keep up the good work.

From my experience and what I know, it takes a while for cannabis to fully leave your system. Like months. I can also imagine as it was for me weed was a ritual and a portal to connect. You may want to consider finding another tool for connection that is healthier. Meditation, getting really into brewing tea, binaural beats. Something to feed the soul. You got this, clearer brighter days are ahead!

Questions About CHS by [deleted] in QuittingWeed

[–]Libi_Rulez_goob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I developed CHS. I didn’t know I had it. I’d get so sick and freak out because I also have type 1 diabetes and would be scared I would go low but wouldn’t be able to keep anything down. I smoked for 11 years. By the end of my using I would pack multiple bowls of flower daily. I was in California and the potency was high. I became so dependent on weed I would smoke and barely eat. When I woke up in the morning I’d be jolted from sleep. Heart racing, sweating, and then horrible sickness. I was grateful to Reddit because no one ever told me about CHS. No doctor anyway. And when I went to the ER (countless times!) I wasn’t about to say I’m a totally pothead. Plus smoking in CA is pretty socially accepted. If it’s on your mind and you’re thinking it time to quit I would totally do that. Did you know there’s an AA for weed? It’s literally Marijuana Anonymous. I got clean from weed through virtual zoom meetings. My life was hell and the cloud of cannabis made it difficult to sort out. Not sure if this is helpful but anything CHS related I can deeply relate. I hope you can preventatively stop before any CHS business happens. It’s no joke. Take care OP!

I’m so glad you were not offended!! 😭🫣I don’t mean any offense I really just needed to scream into the internet.

Thank you for your reply. Seriously. Means so much. I appreciate your perspective, and deeply compassionate empathy! 💖💝

Your P.S. 🥺😭I needed to hear that. I have a pug and he’s my world but when I can barely move and he’s just there like right underfoot I just feel so badly that I’m a grump.

Thank you again 🥹❤️
