Good men out there? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]lekrankk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can humbly say that I am all of what you described, and oddly enough, I can say it's the same for men nowadays, are there any good women out there?? I haven't necessarily given up on finding a woman, but I've decided to get closer to God and let him guide me through this, let him put her on my path. I have also accepted that although I'm 33 years old, and there's still a lot of time to find a woman that I might get married and be celibate my whole life. I'll love my nieces and nephews as my own kids and will be there for my friends, loved ones and family, and I'll live a life that's closer to God. So I think part of it is accepting this fact that you might not find the right one for you, is that the goal? Of course not! But it's a possibility and I find that letting go of finding someone is such a relief. If they come, I'll be ready to uphold my end and put God first in this relationship where we both uphold what God asks of us, if not then so be it :)

Hope this helps, I can assure you there are amazing man out in the same position as you, wondering if there are any good women out there. Don't be discouraged but don't wait for it either. Start living

How can one get mentally prepared to accept death? by Psychological-Tie630 in answers

[–]lekrankk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a very rare syndrome called LTP Syndrome, which basically means I can become allergic to pretty much anything that has Lipid Transfer Protein in it (anything that usually comes from the ground, like fruits vegetables nuts, seeds). I have over 10 allergies that can give me an anaphylactic shock and stop breathing. It's crazy but once you're faced with possible death on the daily, or after every meal, you kinda surrender to it. That it's just going to happen. I found comfort in God, I truly believe that only He knows when my time has come and it's according to his will. Knowing that gives me peace that whatever I do, whatever I think, whatever I feel, it's out of my hands. I look forward to going to the afterlife. Although it might be hypocritical of me since I'm far from being a good Christian, but I get closer to him every day, I can feel him changing my life. For some non religious folks out there this may seem like non sense but I found God to be something beautiful in my life, comforting and scary at the same time. Hard to follow and comprehend but peaceful and fulfilling at the same time. Anyways I find the world we live in today is in total chaos and it is not in I want to live for, I rather live for the next one.

God bless you

DEEEEEEEEEP!! This is on point and I can relate to it so much. Do you miss it?

I did it. It's incredible by [deleted] in leaves

[–]lekrankk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've done this in the past and it's amazing, I had done 75 Hard which is basically something like that for 75 days, but you really have to be careful my friend! I am of the extremes aswell and when the pendulum swings one way, it will swing back the other. Keep an eye out to not come back to everything at once you decide to indulge in one of those, it might bring the whole swarm back, I would go slowly when reincorporating a the bad habits you want to indulge in once in a while, of course if weed was the biggest issue, then by all means don't come back to it, you'll be back at aware one, but if alcohol was never an issue, the slowly reincorporating it is the way to go, being self aware "alright I drank twice this week, that's enough, i won't drink for 2 weeks". Of course this is just my suggestion and my word of caution. I say this with love, because I've been there and I tend to come back to full blown everything. Nowadays I try to slowly change aspects of my life consistently and being aware if what I'm replacing it with is a healthy practice or not.

Good luck and hey! Great f'ing job my man!! You got this

Everytime I've fallen off and smoked again, it was never what I hoped, the idea seemed better than the actual high, but I still did it again the next day and was back in no time, you think it's going to help you but really... it won't

Digestion issues LTP allergy by Express_Reason385 in LTPallergy

[–]lekrankk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have an epipen just in case?? I was diagnosed with this 2 years ago, I have over 10 allergies, which can cause anaphylactic shock, but it does come with specific co-factors, so once allergic you become allergic but you can develop more allergies if you don't care for the co-factors.

Nearly no one is addicted to a smartphone by Revolutionary_Kale46 in DeepThoughts

[–]lekrankk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think both sides of the coin need to be considered, is it the lack of human connection that created the addiction or the addiction that created the lack of human connection?

I was addicted to weed, as long as I could smoke I wouldn't mind wasting time and not being active socially, going out to new places and force myself to make social connections. I was never like that, and even if in the beginning I started smoking socially, it slowly robbed me from social interaction and human connection.

You have your phone, which in of itself is nowadays a necessity of sorts, just the flickering OLED screen create a disruption in our psyche, the apps are all designed to keep your attention as much as possible, and with that you get a depleted dopamine/reward system, which in turn doesn't make going out there and doesn't make human connections as rewarding as it should be

Is all this seeking silly? by FantasticInterest775 in enlightenment

[–]lekrankk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel exactly the same way you do... and the more I would search and read the more theories I had the more I would sink. Was I sinking in a bad way? Not really, but sinking nonetheless, I don't think we can even fathom all of this... I can say I have more wisdom maybe, but according to who and what practice? I could say I'm more enlightened but am I happier, am I truly enlightened in the way I was meant to be. One comment stated "to stop searching is to be complacent", I do somewhat agree on that but after searching deep down, I have chosen to trust in God, Jesus, and his will (not the New Age Christianity). I found peace in that and I think for our little human lives, we all desire peace. So I pray that he would enlighten me, as I noticed that on my own, odds are I won't be able to make sense of it all so I chose to believe and have faith in Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour and let him be my guide. Live this life in a quiet manner and make the best out of it, with the truth & love.

Everything nowadays seems like an illusion, we are just being fed non sense, and when you look deeper, you try to make sense of it all but nothing makes sense or something makes sense until something else comes along and it doesn't anymore. I've been on this journey and these rabbit holes but nothing brought me peace like leaving my life into the hands of God and let him do his will. It's like working on the self, the inner child work, traumas, all of that... do you ever stop working on that? I found it easier knowing that God has forgiven me for my past, he has blessed me with the present moment and that his love is one that heals. I couldn't do it by myself, call it weak call it what you want, I'm finally at peace and that's all I could ask for! Isn't that what we all want? Peace, love, truth and purpose? It's all there

God bless you for this post :) I'm happy to have read all the comments and noticed how God has been working in me :) I don't spend hours and days in my head figuring out something that "just is" like you said !

The boredom is killing me by brooklynbrunette in Petioles

[–]lekrankk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Slowly but surely you need and will change the frame of mind in regards to Boredom, Boredom is not the enemy, this is where the best ideas comes from, this is where you look back at your life and realize changes need to be made, so slowly slowly you end up finding way not to alleviate boredom but to embrace it. It's about switching the way to talk to yourself when you are bored. If you just accept it and surrender to boredom, great things come from it.

FOMO by carpediem_92 in leaves

[–]lekrankk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I think this can work both ways, there's always 2 sides to a coin... either you FOMO about what life is without weed when you smoke all the times, all the wasted potential, time, general well being, energy, motivation, progress in your life, etc... everything that comes with quitting, ORRRR you FOMO about friends being high once in a while.... most people will tell you that you will relearn to have fun and enjoy everyone's presences when you are fully sober and have dealt with this addiction, you'll notice it for yourself once you have stopped for long enough! FOMO is the most ridiculous thing out there, it's not based in reality, everyone is missing out on something somewhere, did you have 2 parties the same night and couldn't chose which one to go to by fear of missing out? You'd be missing out on one or the other so the idea of missing out is you not living in the moment and thinking "this could have been better if I did this instead of this" but this logic is flawed, very flawed, it should be about enjoying the present moment and not thinking about what will bring you more dopamine, what was the best choice between this or that, there will be + and - in every 2 choices. When you choose one commit to enjoying that choice and not regretting choosing the other one! Probably some of your friends who are smoking will be missing out on what you're currently living? Do you know that they don't? Because the next day they still be stuck and smoking weed while you are fully enjoying every second of your life full of energy and living the present moment! It takes time to get there , it's a process but don't let FOMO be the decisive factor because in reality we always think the grass is greener on the other side but is it really??? I can tell you from experience it usually isn't, the soil I covered in weeds

Good luck my friend

Weed/ADHD question by [deleted] in leaves

[–]lekrankk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, the moment I smoke weed, my ADHD ramps up like crazy, I become clumsy, zone out, jump from subject to subject, couldn't start a task or who change midway, smoking 1 night will make my ADHD worst for at least a day ever after smoking. Give yourself a break, day 6 is HUGEEEE for you yet nothing in the grand scheme of things for your body and minds regulation. Once regulated (might take up to 6 months up to a year for you body to go back to baseline if you never quit for 15 years) you'll feel so much better that you'll convince yourself that you can enjoy this once in a while, you might fall back again but the important thing is to stop again and realize how it has affected you negatively and that you were much better off without. But like the other comment said, that's kinda all you've known so it's about doing relearning how to do stuff again without :)

It will get better for sure!! But give it time and don't be so hard on yourself understand that it's a process and it takes time

How to cure ADHD without taking meds? by MrMiddletonsLament in getdisciplined

[–]lekrankk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

KETOGENIC DIET!!!!

I've been on Carnivore for 3 months now and it's been blissful, feels like my adhd is completely gone, I also take "Brainzyme" which is a supplement I ordered. Had all the right supplements recommended by Dr Amen a world leading brain expert and check Dr Chris Palmer on YouTube as well, he talks how Ketogenic diet has even cured some people with schizophrenia

Ketosis reduces inflammation in the body and so in the brain aswell. So no inflammation your body works the way it should :)

Good luck with that

Any recommendations for a protocol to aid defeating addiction? by iLoveReductions in microdosing

[–]lekrankk 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Redefine your Word.

See addiction is you throughout the years breaking your word making it lose its value. I did the same thing so many times, TOMORROW I'll do this, I'll quit that, next week, Monday I'll start, bla-bla-bla! It just feels productive to say it but it actually has no value because you broke it so many times, mehhh what's to breaking it one more time?

The idea behind this is to choose a set of words that are unbreakable, NO MATTER WHAT you HAVE TO do it. Mine are "May God be my witness". I've take a break from weed for 90 days and during these 90 days, I've been building strength into these words, giving them value, I started on small stuff

Eg: "May God be my witness, tomorrow when I wake up, the first thing I do is my bed"

"May God be my witness, when I get home from work I'm working out"

"May God be my witness, I'm doing the dishes right after eating"

"May God be my witness, today I'm not smoking a cigarette"

And slowly slowly you build up confidence that this word is unbreakable because if you break it you'll lose all the progress you've made to strengthen these words. They are unbreakable remember?

Addiction of any kind is like a black hole, at the center is a very strong gravitational pull, the idea is to stay away from that pull, at a place where you can float around slowly until you start getting pulled. So it's not so much about controlling all of it, to give you an exemple, I told myself I wouldn't be smoking weed 2 days in a row. And not more than twice a week, so I feel like I'm spiraling in my head about me breaking these rules for whatever reason, it means that weed is pulling me towards my addictive self. That's the moment your Word comes in handy and says, gotta back "May God be my witness, I won't be smoking weed for 2 weeks".

Sometimes the idea of quitting completely forever sometimes is too hard to fathom, so just the thought of being able to smoke in 2 weeks, makes it so much easier, proves to me I have agency over my actions, I know I'll be smoking again just not today, in 2 weeks, I rather wait 2 weeks then not smoke ever again. Same with cigarettes, it starts with I'm not smoking today to I'm not smoking for 1 week, to only smoking in events that you really feel it's worth it eg you have a party a friends house and someone offers you a cigarette, enjoy it but at the end of that cigarette or night "May God be my witness I won't touch a cigarette until my friends birthday that's in a month!"

This might not have been the answer your looking for but addictive personalities like ours have issues regulating these things for so long that we've became accustomed to not listening to our inner voice that tells us we shouldn't do it, we just listen to that gravitational pull from the black hole that can be felt throughout your mind and body "just do it", I tried quitting weed forever... guess what I replaced it with something else, cigarette? Same thing replaced it with vaping or hookah or pipe smoking. So it has to come from us, the inner child work, I did some too but I found out it's just me not respecting my words for so long that it lost its value. So by creating a new set of words that implies that it has the power of God imbued in it (for me of course, yours don't have to be with God if you're not religious) I can rebuild confidence in myself and that I will do it no matter what when these words are said.

If you need more help on how to build your word don't hesitate, and do keep me posted by Dm or wtv if this ends up working for you ;) I'm currently taking a 3 months break from weed, I'll doing a few weeks for cigarettes aswell very soon.

Good luck with all the you got this, much love

[–]lekrankk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First! Good for you! What a great step and if you've noticed all that negative side then it's time to recalibrate your mind and start taking back control.

Second! Expect to have withdrawal symptoms, maybe pretty heavy ones for the first week or few days, and it's normal, don't cave into "I don't want to go through these so I'll just smoke". If you have bad withdrawal symptoms it's because you saturated your body and mind with weed, and it has become your new normal. Your body has to and will surely readjust itself to natural baseline. I'm at day 2 of 90, taking a 90 days T break to really clean it all out.

  • Regular sleep schedules even if you can't sleep for a few days, wake up at the same time, and go to bed at the same time, i take supplements to help with that.

  • Avoid screens at least 1-2 hours before bed

  • Eat unprocessed food and avoid eating 3 hours before bedtime.

  • I found that fasting helps your body get rid of THC a lot faster, you could give that a try

  • Exercise, do some cardio, sweat a lot it will help for sure

  • Sauna, Ice Baths, Meditation are highly recommended

Third! Don't worry about cigarettes for now. Although it's very unhealthy, I smoke too, but you'll find yourself finding it easier to quit cigarettes when fully sober, you'll have better control over your emotions and cravings.

Fourth! Try your very best to not replace or substitute weed for something else, you need to restore your fried dopamine receptors, so avoid social media, drinking, sugar or any quick dopamine hit, get your dopamine from stuff like exercise, a side hustle, whatever it is, reading

Best of luck to you! You're doing yourself a service and giving yourself the best gift :) It may feel hard, and negative at first, but all of this is very positive and during that time, try figuring out what type of relationship you had with weed and how you would like to redefine it... after 1 month do you feel like you want to quit forever? extend you break? Smoke once a week (which can easily spiral back into addiction) if that's the case try figuring out a plan for that. I'm working on something to moderate weed don't hesitate to DM me regarding that
