Hello Klim, sorry to hear about your struggle. As for myself, I thankfully never suffered from depression via PAWS but I also didn't have the long history with cannabis that you did. Having said that, it's just so hard to answer your question with a specific time. On this forum there have been peopl...

potsleep, thanks for the post! So genuinely happy for your sobriety, recovery, and for coming back here to spread encouragement.

God bless you, my friend!

Hello Ruak, Great to hear from you! I think it is awesome you came back to this forum to tell you have fully recovered. Having said that, I am unfamiliar with your story. Are you saying you only took weed once and you experienced all that you did for two years? If you have already posted your story,...

Completely normal. And your doctor doesn't know the extent of PAWS. Even with THC out of your system, the damage has been done and now it needs to heal. Good eating, lots of exercise, positive thinking, and above all else....time. You can just read through the 10 threads below this one of yours and ...

Its been a while since I started to taking Niacinamide so I can give a full report/review. Now, for the last 20 days, I am in PAWS wave - and it does it help to take niacinamide? I don't think so. My mental energy is really low, my brain is functioning at a 5% rate. Everything that I do is mentally...

Good to hear from you Mary Jane, I'm glad the magnesium is proving helpful! And I agree with Brudenski, you are hitting a major milestone. It was around 30 months where 2yearquit began to feel substantial relief and eventual full recovery. 2 years and 7 months is a long time. Very long, but I'm glad...

Thank you for the explanation. Before your overdose were you a smoker? And when the floodgates opened how long did you smoke for or vape for and frequency. Thank you for the context :) Well that's just it, I wasn't a smoker. At all. Ever. I started for 3 weeks. In fact, I was mainly interested beca...

Hey Bullfrog, do you mind sharing your history on how long you smoked for and approx frequency before you quit? Thank you! Hey Monday, My story is extremely rare and doesn't apply to 99% of people here. I will give you a brief summary: I made cannabis oil and took a drop every night for 3 weeks in ...

@James, I definitely know what you mean. In fact, I have had a lot of thoughts and struggles over this issue. For starters, I am 35 years old. I remember when I was around 20 when the Christmas "magic" of being super thrilled over waking up to gifts finally subsided. Obviously Christmas is...

I’m going to post my story on my 3 year quit in a months time. As I owe so much to this forum. But for now all I can say is regarding paws 2yearquit was bang on I started to feel better on 30 months. I thought paws was never going to leave me. Nearly 3 years and it’s almost gone. Hang in there ur n...

Hey Great Dane, I also just got your personal message reply. I am very sorry you are feeling so horrible after 20 months. I honestly cannot imagine feeling like day 1 at month 20. But you are right that sobriety from heavy porn addiction would almost certainly be ADDING to your PAWS. Brain scans of ...

@Tokeless, thank you for our comment. You are likely right that "life long addict" is not a helpful concept. Granted, I don't like to think my point advocates that, although people do describe what I say as that title. It was more along the line that having been an addict before, it is eas...

I agree with Ash. Making a decision to use it again while in PAWS just isn't smart. Here is my 2 cents. I am unaware of any program that recommends reusing a substance that a person was addicted to. Those who were addicted to alcohol, can never have it again. I would think the same is true with Cann...

Hey Ash, good to hear from you as well and thanks for your kind words. And thanks for the reminder about moderation. I need to be careful not to overdue it. I certainly don't want to induce another wave of PAWS because I got careless with caffeine and other stimulants. And please feel free to ask me...

Well on September 1st I will be 19 months into PAWS. I mostly have retained the strange buzzy/dizzy/hazy mess in my head since the beginning with occasional pressure in my head. Anxiety is rare but sometimes flares up. Sometimes my thoughts will drop off midway through my thought process. Kinda scar...
