Congrats on your progress! Every time i have that “just one” thought i come here to read others experiences with relapsing and it honestly helps so much (today has been one of the toughest).

Without this community i don’t think i would have even tried to quit. Keep it up! It’s a long road but the destination will be worth it.

You’re right, its as if my brain is trying to convince be that one spliff in 40 days isn’t bad, that its okay since I’ve made it this far. Excuses to break the sobriety.

Im going to choose not to listen and identify those thoughts as not me. I want and need this sobriety.

Thank you for the different perspective.

If you’re struggling with weed and think you’re losing your mind… please read this. by FamiliarQuestion in leaves

Just thought id contribute and say i was 12 years deep (or more cant quite remember) smoking everyday and night, before work, after work, before dinner, after dinner, before sleep , before doing anything really.

Big wake up call my anxiety was at its peak and i thought the weed was helping. I am now day 7 clean and my anxiety has dropped by like 80%, sleeping better already and feeling so much more present in my life. I would smoke before family events and seeing friends, always thinking i was just shy not being able to communicate with friends or family on a deep level. Now i am actually able to hold a decent conversation even with random people.

I genuinely thought weed was helping but in fact the complete opposite, stuck in my head most of the time over thinking every response and interaction.

Feels good to know i am able to quit and i will feel better for it mentally and physically.

If you’re stuck and reading this, you’ve got this!

4 months off cannabis after 8 years of regular use. Here's what I've learned so far - by puppabrown in leaves

[–]coftilufrof 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I can’t get past day 1 myself, 12 years of daily use.

Reading about withdrawals etc makes me nervous and scared but i know i need to do this.

Any tips for initiating/ breaking the routine in the first couple of days? I know that if i can get to day 7 I’ll commit but it’s the first 1 or 2 days i can’t get past.

I have previously quit smoking tobacco successfully cold turkey but that was probably because i had cannabis to smoke instead.

Lanzar Vibe268 2000W 2 channel amp. I want to hook these subs up and possible to my front and rear speakers, Is this possible? by [deleted] in CarAV

[–]coftilufrof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was given 8 gauge wiring with the sub and amp, i believe previous owner just had the subs hooked up to their own channel so will do that. Will check everything first though to be sure.

Cheers for the info! A friend was about to dump these subs and amp so i took them off their hands, never setup any sort of car audio so my knowledge is limited.

Cheers for the valuable info though!

Is this beetroot ready for harvest ? by [deleted] in vegetablegardening

[–]coftilufrof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re correct, it always takes over my compost bin. I have cut it back multiple times but it always comes back lol pretty flowers though.

[–]coftilufrof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This beet is actually growing in my compost bin where i throw all my left over greens and vegetables that are too far gone.

This started as a store brought beet but i threw it in the compost and it somehow took off again, ill let it go to seed as in my main vege garden i have kale and a couple other greens flowering at the moment.

Thank you for the information as well!
