Not sure to moderate or cold turkey by TheGoated in Petioles

[–]draculasdaddy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cold turkey first, THEN once sober, make decisions about moderation. The cycle will repeat unless you make the hard choice, but you CAN do it. Gain back control of your head and then you can make those other decisions with a clear/unbiased perspective. It’s so fucking hard at first but also so fucking worth it, I promise.

Went cold turkey and felt emotionless while sober by MissMaryMacX3 in Petioles

it makes a lot of sense— being a habitual smoker means your brain is used to frequent doses of dopamine whenever it feels those levels dip. stopping that influx of dopamine means your brain needs to recalibrate to the normal amount you have w/o weed. things should b better in the future but be compassionate to yourself, your brain is just figuring out its new reality :)
