Re: Your baked brain.

Not only are you a troll, but you obviously have some reading comprehension issues when I already addressed that (hint, OTHER medications involved as well as mental health issues). There needs to be a period of full sobriety to determine if there is an underlying mental health issue, which typicall...

Re: 7.5 months now

Hi, Now I am at month 7.5. I just got out of a bad wave that took a couple of days. I am at the point where I enjoy a lot more of life again. I am able to watch TV series again (improved attention span), more productive than during my addiction (still far from optimal) and my libido is there again ...

Re: Just Getting Started (painfully long)

Hey Void. At 16 days you are very likely still in the acute withdrawal phase which, given the extent of your use, is not going to be fun either! At such level of use, it can take several days for the serum THC levels to drop to a point where the withdrawal will truly begin. This seems to have happen...

Re: 80 days clean of weed

You know, before this PAWS stuff, if that’s what it I really is, I was perfectly contented with being alone. I would occasionally be lonely and feel emptiness which would only last a day or part of the day. I don’t know if it’s where I retired a year and 8 months ago, combined with this paws, or if...

Re: 80 days clean of weed

@FriendlyFriend, can’t tell you how much your reply helps me, knowing I’m not the only one. I am actually retired, wish I hadn’t now. Didn’t realize how it helped me to occupy my time. I couldn’t stand the shift work, working midnight shifts. Now I wish I still was. It’s very hard for me now, seein...

Re: 80 days clean of weed

Hoping when spring gets here my spirits will pick up. Going through this alone, with the winter blahs, not by best time at all. Know what you are going through, my buddy of fate. 5 months in, live alone, unemployed, in a Northern European country. It's difficult, even hopeless at times. Daily walks...

Re: Nightmares

Do you ever wake up with your mouth hanging open? Mouthbreathing during the night can cause nightmares.

PAWS: the 3, 6, 9 month rule?

I have read this notion a few times on this forum, that at every three month mark there is a sudden onset of PAWS symptoms. It has certainly been true for me. Tomorrow I will have been 9 months clean and for the past two days I have been feeling horribly anxious and depressed out of the blue. Exactl...
