I smoked for 20 years, so for me it's been a hell of a ride. I'm now 6 months and 9 days clean. I had nausea, and still do from time to time, for about 4 months after quitting. I even got shingles and other ailments. My body was in shock. Once I got over the main physical symptoms I was left with th...

I forgot one point I was going to make. You said that it's disheartening to see so many people that have been dealing with PAWS for a few years after quitting. I think it's kind of like with online reviews. Most of them are curated by the seller, but you gotta think that most people who have a posit...

Yeah you totally get it now. I never had anxiety or depression and functioned better than ever before I quit, but I also had a very high tolerance and this constant background steady state buzz. I accomplished things that a lot of non smokers wouldn't even dream of being able to do. I agree that i'...

Ah, ok, I think it was the other guy that said he was 32 then. Well, my first comment regarding the testosterone is probably even more applicable to you than him. I had a total test of over 900 when I was 19 or 20 and I've always been a muscular and hairy guy. I had guys in the gym come and ask me w...

Have you had your testosterone levels checked? I was 32, your age, when I decided to have mine checked as I was noticing more body aches, less results in the gym, depression, etc. I found out my total testosterone was 470 (normal is 250 - 950). My free testosterone, which is the bioavailable testost...

I wasn’t “smoking” per say, I was vaping dry herb in my Arizer Air. I was not a fan of cartridges, they made me feel nauseous and anxious. What I mean by doing stuff I dont like, I’m talking about complex, difficult tasks. Doing stuff like cleaning or mundane repetitive tasks was easier with weed. I...

Waking up at 10 am is the reason you are still tired. You are a human and you are subject to the circadian rhythms that have been with us since the beginning of our existence. Our ancestors didn’t get up at 10, they got up at sun up, so around 6-7. I recommend getting to bed early and waking up at t...

How are you doing now? Your post sounds a lot like my experience. I quit September 14, 2021 after getting high for 20 years. I’m 35. Just a couple of months in I got appendicitis and then a few weeks later, shingles. I had nausea and stomach pains daily for 4 months. I actually didn’t get any panic...

Ok, don’t know what “choking tf of my girlfriend means,” but I’ll provide my experience. I do know what depression is, and there is some overlap between depression and what you describe, but depression usually involves a negative mindset and feelings. I had the typical withdrawal symptoms the first ...

Good job on staying clean. I will recommend daily exercise, and I mean real exercise. I’ve been working out as long as I used weed, over 20 years. Mainly, I lift weights. When I quit, I lost the motivation to do anything, including exercise. After a few months I said enough is enough, and I started ...

I’m 35 now and quit September 14th of last year after 20 years of using. The worst of it was the first 4 months. I feel more in control of my emotions now, and my memory is a lot better, but I still have some crap days… like today. It’s nice to read that for some people it took a lot longer than jus...
