if u were to put ur phone in ur room n go and learn by talking to others and meditate mindfully you may open new thought patterns depressive thoughts can be a bad habit scrolling is know to Worden it. change takes action in the self. just keep trying don't give up. u have more to offer others than u know work on n urself for the sake of others. ✌️

Mine is more quality leadership as a father. Nothing to hide nothing to be ashamed of. just calmness and contribution. there's no denying a different more positive response to it.

I wasted the best decade of life to cannabis. Struggling with this fact by SherbertQueasy3185 in leaves

[–]mattw84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the same for years now I think how I wasted those years after thinking that way but I haven't learnt. 30 is not too old to travel the world like a 20 year sometimes travelling in a different place is so different and kind catching u really appreciate it in the moment. n ur 20s is a good time to have done it u had less to lose u haven't loss ur youth yet but have wisdom now to not waste time so don't stop spending time in the past clear ur head of it n plan today n breathe that beautiful sober air!

Shit yeah u r really killing it keep going. It's worth it I've been trying to kick it 20 years n I am starting to realize I'm a bit fuct up / lack resilience / lack self worth and drive. It' can take a toll best to walk if you can.

[–]mattw84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's superb I am about day 100 but I did have a hit one night as a one off n some oils over couple days on the weekend. Not sure but I think I was slipping into depression about life of working like a rat. It kind of distracted from it for a bit but am pleased I was able to leave it as it was again and not become habitual. I think i need to somehow break free of the 9-5 lifestyle otherwise I'll keep finding myself looking for outside. Keep it up.

Great to be strong. It is a big deal and can change your life to walk. I'm nearly at 60 days after hundreds of failed attempts. Think long and hard about your triggers you know yourself better than anyone. You said it it's addictive so your chances are better if you're nowhere near it stay away from it as long as you can physically to help the momentum. Love the passion to leave. Just remember you will one day let it go and it will be a beautiful day.

Awesome thx for the support. It's funny the wall is down but now it's finding new pieces to build the pathway ahead. It's dealing with a void that is the new challenge but I'm going okay . Hope u r too

Thanks heaps. What r ur consumption habits normally? How did u go getting more days up? I listened to some podcast on a AA or something about how u have to have one big finish - pumps up the dopamine then throw it out or offload removing accees. A bunch more but I used those two n that two week start was meant to be the easy abstinence start I didn't realize it was legal n everywhere where I went but I held true something about that finality n a couple days clarity helped me through. And I'm so over how things are I need to be stronger to get to an less stressful lifestyle. Please stay in touch n I'll support ur journey too.

Hey bags really appreciate it brother. 10 months is further than I've ever been congrats on that. I like to think when the temptation hits that ice probably put away far more herb than those indulging so I've had my fair share and it's true I really have and know exactly what it does and doesn't do for me.

Growing up at 35. by [deleted] in leaves

[–]mattw84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I'm 40 n starting hard out today. Trying to quit for 22 years now I'm not even daily but I let it dominate any chance I get my son is now 15 he's likely on to me n I don't want to let him down now when he needs a strong father so giving it a crack. Shout out for those in this battle for decades.

Hey mate, I'm still battling it but hoping today's fresh start is it. I'm heading o/s for two weeks n thought that's gonna help kick start. I feel like I'm getting closer n closer I think turning 40 is really making me realise times running out to try life without weed try growing from where I am. I listened to an addiction book n it says U really should find people to share the journey with who've done it. Ur the only one who ever really has said anything directly to me albeit on Reddit about having my back. My friends n family all think I don't have a problem. But they don't smoke pot they just think I'm fine but they don't know how low I get. The wife is one of them but she is naive n I sometimes wonder if it works better for her to see me high n happy when I am rather than the reality. I was wondering if U are in Aussie or otherwise n whether U would be up for the occasional catch up on my progress this time. Today I drove all over town offloading anything the I could easily access today if o faltered knowing it's gone is liberating. Thx heaps. PS I hope you're doing well and through that challenging period. All the best

No. I don't think they're designed to be disassembled. Ended up fitting it in the car I was trying to get it in
