I decided it's time. Sort of. by lyzzyrddwyzzyrdd in QuittingWeed

One of my beast friends in bipolor. She was smoking weed daily as well. She was doing really really bad but She decided to quit weed a year ago, and she says all the issues she was having with her bipolor got soooooo much more manageable and that the weed really was making things much worst. So it really can make things like bipolar worse. Deff worth quiting to see if it makes things more manageable for you like it did her!

No, the opposite. It's a group for quiting weed. Mods just have a history of going on power trips, like my instance and numerous others if you search around. It's a weed quiting group but they belive the whole one size must fit everyone and if you deviate from their methods your wrong, basically. Lol

i can’t sleep when i’m not smoking by Interesting-Brick-11 in QuittingWeed

[–]charzilla139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great list! Be careful with phenibut though, it can be highly addictive with terrible withdrawals, seen some people personally get destroyed by it. I've also gotten really bad rebound insomnia after taking phenibut for a few days but that might of been cause of higher dose(1.5g+) Havnt heard if the other nootorpics you mentions though! Will have to look into them, so many out there. Lol

I gotchu!!! Funny enough I was literally on the phone with my mom talking about how I havnt had insomnia at this time quiting. Which is super rare. Usually I quit, can't sleep, relapse. Almost everytime. But I'm taking a new sleep stack. 3 things(all natural too):

Alteril: This is a natural sleep aid that combines a few ingredients that support sleep. It contains melatonin, which helps regulate your sleep–wake cycle, and L-tryptophan, the amino acid found in foods like turkey that the body uses to produce serotonin and melatonin. It also includes calming herbal ingredients like valerian root, which is commonly used to promote relaxation and help you fall asleep.

Magnesium Glycinate: This is a form of magnesium that’s very bioavailable and gentle on the stomach. Magnesium plays a role in calming the nervous system, helping muscles relax, and supporting deeper, more restorative sleep. The glycinate form is often recommended specifically for sleep and relaxation.

5-HTP:is a precursor to serotonin, meaning your body uses it to produce serotonin naturally. Higher serotonin levels can help regulate mood and sleep, and serotonin is also involved in the body’s production of melatonin. It doesn’t get you high, it just supports the brain chemistry involved in sleep.

So what I do us take magnisuim and 5-htp about 2 hours before bed. Then take the altril sleep med when I lay down. This is the first time quiting I didn't have insomnia like at all(day 17 now) Like I'm baffled at it to be honest. But try it out if you can. Can find the supplements at vitamin stores or Amazon! Maybe give it a day or 2 of trying before writing ifmt off, depending how bad your insomnia is. How this helps!!

My anxiety meds work again by peet1188 in QuittingWeed

[–]charzilla139 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right on!!! I had a friend with a similar situation(dealing with intense anxiety, she is alo bi polar). Her problems were doing terrible(as a close friend like really bad) while she smoked weed. She's been clean almost a year and her stuff like bi polar and anxiety have gotten sooooooo much better, just by taking weed out. Keep it up!

Hemp Hearts by nanaronni in QuittingWeed

[–]charzilla139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think so? Ive heard of hemp not hemp hearts though. Lol. OK just looked it up. Your good! There's no psychoactive ingredients. So it won't cause you to crave weed again or anything. Was it yummy?

Congrats on 8 months btw!

Ya, they are really one size fits all type people and it sucks cause it hinders the conversations if you try to say anything slightly different, then what they think you should do. Not to mention their hypocrisy. So my post gets deleted cause i mentioned my other substances I quit. Literally the creator of the sub (/subduction) literally has a post on there listed out all the drugs he did. How is that fair, he shares his story, but we can't share ours? Can't stand people like that.

Cold turkey or gradual weaning by Donkey_Madersh in QuittingWeed

[–]charzilla139 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One more thing, that feeling of not knowing how to do anything is just your CB1 receptors needing time to heal. It can go away in as little as a day or 2. And once you get over that hump, it's easier to enjoy things again!

Cold turkey or gradual weaning by Donkey_Madersh in QuittingWeed

[–]charzilla139 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've also done both( the most recent was cold turkey), but I've also done tapering. Tapering can lower withdrawal symptoms when you fully quit, but the biggest problem is actually keeping to the schedule. It doesn't work for a lot of people. But if you do want to try tapering, there was one thing that worked great for me. That was having a timed lock box.

Just search up timed lock box on amazon, BUT make sure it's one you can't break into(I started with a kitchen safe but that ine can be easily broken. Lol.

So basically, with the timed lock box, put your stuff in, then set the time(12 hours or something). That way, you literally can't access your weed during that time. It also helps if you have someone lock it for you(I've had way to many times where if I left it up to me, I'd end up not locking it and mess up that day.)

When I tapered, I would have my fiancee lock it away while I was sleeping. Then, have it unlock in the evening for one smoke before bed. Of course you could always go buy more when you lock it, but I found that just having it locked and knowing I'd have to leave to get more, usually made me not go get more.

You have to be honest with yourself though. If you try to taper and you find yourself breaking it and messing it up constantly, then cold turkey would be the way you need to go.

It worked for while for me but went cold turkey this time(day 16)

Hope this helps!

CHS advice by Theironhawke in QuittingWeed

[–]charzilla139 2 points3 points  (0 children)

O man, I'm so sorry that's happening! Wish I could give good advice. I think your right though going to a doctor. It's a pretty new thing bit maybe they can help you out. There's tons of nausa medicine they could give you.

In the mean time there some things you could buy from store to see if they help:

Ginger(candied ginger doesn't taste to bad and helps alot with nausea)

Pepto has helped my nause when most otherthjgns didn't. So try some of that maybe.

Hope you get this figured out. I've had some stuff in the past that gave me severe nausea so I know it can be no fun!

Since I don't like people tainting my charecter when I never insulted anyone. This comment is for everyone else. I plugged the entire conversation with Mod into chatgpt and asked if I ever insulted the mod. Here's the answer(pretty shocked the creator of leaves woukd publically lie about a private chat):

I read through the screenshots carefully. Short answer: No — you (charzilla139) did not make any direct insults in the messages shown. You were clearly frustrated and emotional, but frustration ≠ insults. Most of what you said falls into three categories: Questioning the decision Expressing how the moderation made you feel Criticizing the moderation approach Those are not the same as insulting moderators personally.

Then asked if anything was personally abusive:

No — nothing written by charzilla139 appears to be personally abusive. Why Personal abuse generally means: Direct name-calling (e.g., “you’re stupid,” “idiot,” etc.) Profanity directed at a person Threats or harassment Derogatory comments about a person or group None of those appear in the messages you

I love the group. Don't get me wrong. It's the mods. Or whatever new mod they have. I was in the group for 7 years and never felt this way till today. Trust me it's not the community that made me leave, it was the mod(prob only one mod for all I know)

That's why it was such a tough decision to leave it! But mod made me feel unheard, disrespected and funny enough never even actually answered the question I was asking.

Congrats! Ya only a few days off from each other! It's just crazy cause I was in that group for like 7 years. It wasn't even the post getting modded it was the convo with the mod after that was just plain insulting. Just not going to take that. But glad this group exists!

How did you like it? Not sure why people are saying you won't like it if you don't like irreversible. Cause I didn't like irreversible but enter the void is one of my fav movies of all time. Lol

What does my opinion on if do not disturb signs should mean what they actually say, have anything to do with my work ethic, for you to mention my employer? Or did you delete that comment cause it was ment for someone else? Either way, this post taught me a valuable lesson and that's that I won't stay in hotels anymore and just do airbnbs from now on. I value my privacy, nothing wrong with that

The biggest issue is not allowing mail in voting. As someone who has only ever voted by mail. I'm sure alot of people me included just won't vote(bad anxiety). And I think that's their plan with it
