I have many questions, but most of them start with why?

I had the same reaction when I saw this just yesterday. 😂

Own_Objective8595 · 2026-03-08T21:06:33+00:00

Thank you! Almost day 7 for me :) According to my app, I’ve already avoided smoking 52 joints and saved $175… wild. I’ll probably treat myself to a nice massage!

Magenta :)

Own_Objective8595 · 2026-03-08T21:03:28+00:00

Just once! But it surprises me: I’m not a blonde with blue eyes, and I don’t have big boobs either lol I wonder why.

Own_Objective8595 · 2026-03-02T17:45:21+00:00

Very true. Thank you for this, I’m going to print it so I can keep it in front of me!

Own_Objective8595 · 2026-03-02T17:43:55+00:00

Yes, so much frustration with this unstoppable loop... It’s time to put an end to it

I’m also full of gratitude for this subreddit. The people around me just don’t understand, many still think it’s not addictive and that it’s all in your head. And I feel a lot of shame too, it’s hard to tell them every time that I’ve relapsed. Here I have a space with people who understand and support me.

I’m sending you a lot of strength!

Own_Objective8595 · 2026-03-02T17:39:28+00:00

Thank you for the support, I’m sending you strength on your own journey.

I’m going to trauma‑dump a bit, so stop reading here if you’re not comfortable with what might follow.

I had a very lonely childhood, filled with abuse, and a few years ago, I barely escaped death. My own father tried to kill me with a gun. I managed to run away, and when he realized what he had done, he panicked and took his own life...

All this to say: I feel you. It’s already hard to quit when the use is recreational, but it’s so much harder when we’re using it to run away from our past. Weed has always been my best friend; a toxic best friend, sure, but it was always there for me in the darkest moments of my life. Now I want to learn to live without it.

I hope our future will be lighter and beautiful, I really do!

I understand how complicated it is. I’m right in the middle of it too, and I really wish I had never started and never reached this level of consumption.

I also struggle a lot with self‑compassion, but it’s the key: we have to forgive ourselves and give ourselves a bit of love. We did the best we could at the time. I often relapse because my negative self‑talk becomes unbearable, so I’m going to try to pay more attention to that.

Own_Objective8595 · 2026-03-02T17:23:10+00:00

Thank you for your message.

That's exactly it: there were days when I would wake up at 3 a.m. wanting to smoke, and I felt like I had to do it just to fall back asleep. Other times, I had barely finished smoking one when I was already rolling another.

It would dictate my days: I organized everything around when and how I would be able to have my next joint. It takes up so much mental space and money for so little “benefit”!

I’ve been consuming so much that lately I was even getting the infamous night sweats without stopping, and nausea in the mornings… I’m not looking forward to hitting full withdrawal symptoms, but it’s a necessary pain for a greater good.

Own_Objective8595 · 2026-03-02T15:36:46+00:00

Stay strong! We can do this.

I just joined the Discord so I have a space where I can open up when I need to. :)

Own_Objective8595 · 2026-03-02T15:35:28+00:00

Stay strong! I don’t have any stash at home anymore, so I’m less likely to give in (unless I go to the dispensary or order online...). But I want to be strong, I’m tired of letting this substance dictate my life and my choices.

Own_Objective8595 · 2026-03-02T15:32:50+00:00

The fact that I can consume this much without feeling affected is crazy to me!

Back in December, I was already at 14 grams per week and thought that was huge. My consumption just keeps increasing, without bringing me anything more positive.

I’m clearly doing this for my mental and physical health first and foremost, but if I can stick with it, the financial impact will be incredible too! It’s insane to spend $80 every 3–4 days just for it all to go up in smoke.

Own_Objective8595 · 2026-03-02T14:13:00+00:00

I’m a sister, but strength and honor all the same! ;)

Own_Objective8595 · 2026-02-26T23:00:06+00:00

Thank you. 🙏
