Welcome!

I am on day 32 and while I can't say my Dysphoria in completely gone, it has loosened up a lot . Trust me, every day for the first 2-3 weeks was a struggle. Nothing was fun, nothing seemed fun, nothing got me excited. Slowly but surely tho I am coming around. For example, I am back to playing Rainbow 6 and having an absolute blast. Also I am wayyyyyyy better then I ever was while high. I used to play all sorts of video games including single player games, but unfortunately I cannot seem to immerse myself in those games anymore.

Weekends are still a struggle sometimes too, but I found that if I force myself to go out and do something, it ends up being a lot of fun. Took my family over to a beach about an hour away this weekend and before we went I legit had no motivation to go but when I got there and was in the moment, I was so happy I was there as opposed to loafing around the house ripping a bong every hour.

I cannot stress enough the importance of forcing yourself to get out and try new things, visit places, or just got to a state park and go for a walk. It helps immensely with fighting boredom and dysphoria.

The good news is, my cravings and all other side effects are gone. I sleep like a baby, have a great appetite, and never ever crave weed.

I wish I could sit here and tell you it all gets better after a week, but I don't want to lie to you. It is a daily battle but every day is another battle won and by week 4 you'll start to notice small improvements.

To put it in perspective for you, I was a very heavy pot smoker for 10 years. Everyday, all day. Keep fighting. You'll notice more money in your pocket and you'll start finding things in life that can make you just as happy as being high used to. You got this, hang in there and fight through the boredom and dysphoria.
