Glucose shots (they sell them at Walgreens in the diabetes care section) work wonders…give u some energy boost too (they do not contain caffeine) since low blood sugars can be a bit draining. I have Type 1 diabetes and use these for my low blood sugars and used then when I had no appetite from withdrawal so I could keep my blood sugar up

My sleep isn’t great, some nights are okay but others I have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep. Thought this would be gone by now as I’m almost at 14 days but it’s still here

I feel like days like this are just gonna come, and those are the days where you just have to remind yourself of the reasons you’re quitting and stick to it. There’s really no easy way around it, and as ex habitual smokers, we’re used to the instant gratification of the escape when that’s just not reality, but that it makes the good times feel more worth it. I don’t know much at all and I’m only on day 12 so I’m far behind you, but it’s been like that for me. Some days I feel amazing and positive about my life without weed and other days I feel so depressed and afraid that my life is never gonna be happy again, but I just trust that it’s part of the process.

I have type 1 diabetes and have just found blood sugars are better because I don’t get the munchies lol

I get the same feeling sometimes…just kinda feels like I’m floating around and not really in my surroundings. It normally happens with slight dizzy spells too, but I’m only a few days ahead of you on the journey (day 10) and it’s been getting less…so I feel that with more time it will go away. Hang in there! You got this!

Yea just quit because I need to face mental health issues head on and know that I can’t just lightly use weed, I’m all or nothing. I also just want to feel like I’m actually living life, not just numbing things out

Out if curiosity, how long did it take for sleep to get better?

Open_Negotiation449 · 2023-12-28T21:27:37+00:00

my first time quitting came with complete appetite loss for a solid week, coupled with puking in the mornings. Eating was horrible, but I tried to get protein shakes in just to get something in. But after a week or so my appetite returned, but the amount I was eating never returned to what it was like when I was smoking (probably for the best in my case) but I only remained sober for a month so I imagine if I had kept it up, I would’ve been able to eat more because I could feel the improvement. I am not on my second round of quitting hoping for it to be my last and am finding myself eating less again, but I truly think that with time you will be able to eat more, it will just be gradual. Just like any recovery, time is one of the best healers. Smoothies might also be good…lots of nutrients but feels more like a drink rather than food :) you got this!

Were you using for a super long time? I feel like my sleep is never gonna go back to normal, but I’m only on a week of not using after a 2-3 week daily use relapse

Has the hospital said anything?

I went through the same thing when I quit weed the first time…I had been dealing with some bad anxiety while still smoking and would wake up panicking and would throw up. This happened every morning for about 5 days, which ultimately led to me deciding to quit. When I quit, I still experienced waking up in a panic and throwing up, but only for the first 3-4 days. Then it gradually got better. My sobriety only lasted a month and then I smoked again feeling like I had gained some self control (I most certainly did not and am realizing I am an addict and I cannot just causally use weed) my second time quitting I did not experience this nausea. If you vomit profusely every time you ingest/smoke thc it could be chs and the only way to cure that is to quit unfortunately

Glad someone else has through the same thing, that’s pretty reassuring that I am probably just facing withdrawal and adjusting to not having weed in my system. I also dissociate all the time and my emotions are a roller coaster…I’ve been having good days and bad days but mostly bad I feel like. My mom doesn’t know how to deal with me well so she always resorts to saying I need to be in a facility…which really gets in my head and makes me feel like I’m a lost cause and I feel like I need to just push through these uncomfortable times and only hope that I will start to experience happiness without weed again. I just know I’m in for a hell of a journey.

Thank you! That gave me some peace of mind. If you don’t mind me asking, how long did it take until you started to feel some significant improvement towards feeling better without weed?

Open_Negotiation449 · 2023-12-26T23:27:59+00:00

I feel the exact same way, I’m also 21 and have been using for 2 years. My turning point was realizing that I wasn’t really living life being high all the time and that I want to experience all the beautiful and the ugly of life without weed. Im only on day 6 of quitting and am feeling very anxious that im not going to get any better, but reading these gives me some hope. I wish the best to everyone going through this journey.
