Voice loss after quitting weed?

I've had several go-rounds with quitting weed in the last few years. The longest stint was 9 months My most recent was 5 months and then I went 4 months back on. Now I'm back to about 45 days quit. Quitting is so miserable, I always feel like I never want to start again when I'm in the first few mon...

It's getting worse

I don't where to start. I'm depressed. Severely depressed. And have been nearly my entire life. But it's getting worse. Female. Nearly 42-years-old. As I get older, I think more and more about suicide. Last June, I was in my backyard, and I realized I was surveying my trees, looking for a branch tha...

Re: Tackling the Devil's Lettuce (Again)

Very interesting reading, thank you. I think I've identified myself in one of his descriptions, and I was diagnosed years ago with PTSD by my first therapist. An update at three weeks: I finally started sleeping again, only to be hit with an arthritis flare-up. The main issue that is really frustrat...

Tackling the Devil's Lettuce (Again)

I've posted here a few times over the course of the last several years. Here's to hoping this is the last "first days of quitting" post. On Saturday, I will be three weeks weed-free. I just intend to use this thread as place to vent and get out what's in my head...if anyone wants to commen...

Re: Quitting Weed - Round 2

Thanks for the reply. Oddly enough, after last weekend, this time around is turning out to be easier than my first attempt so far. I still find myself a little bored, but I'm not as tired, spacey, bored and unambitious than I was the first time I quit. But last weekend was just brutal. Depression is...

Quitting Weed - Round 2

Hi all - I've been here once before, but this time, I'm torn on whether to post under depression or addiction. I quit drinking two days shy of 10 months. Seven months ago, I flushed what weed I had left and quit for 90 days. It was tough...I slept like a rock for 12-14 hours a night, vivid dreams, f...

3 Weeks Stone Sober

Today marks three week off weed. I also recently hit the 90 day milestone of quitting drinking. I'm a little conflicted as to how I feel about everything. The drinking I am actually feeling really good about. There was a huge beer festival here yesterday and I found myself actually glad I wasn't wak...

Re: Quit Drinking, Quit Weed...need some reassurance

I don't mean to keep bumping up my own topic, but I have a question. I see most people saying they have a loss of appetite during withdrawal. I have exactly the opposite. I'm starving all the time, about a week and a half into quitting. Has anyone else experienced this rather than the loss of appeti...

Re: Quit Drinking, Quit Weed...need some reassurance

It has been 8 days since I quit smoking weed; 84 days since I quit drinking. The night I posted my original post, I suddenly was just exhausted at 8PM, went to bed around 9 and didn't wake up until after 7:30AM. I had some bizarre and colorful dreams that night, which I'm reading is pretty common. L...

Re: Quit Drinking, Quit Weed...need some reassurance

Well, it's not that I have any lack of things to do lol. Besides my full-time job with lots of OT, I have a part-time job that I make my own hours for...I need to finish things by a certain time for each day of the week. I can go in on a weekend and take care of the entire week, or I can do it day b...

Quit Drinking, Quit Weed...need some reassurance

Nearly three months ago I quit drinking. It had been a long time coming. I've battled on and off with alcohol for quite some time, but during a very rough and stressful 5 years, it escalated to an unbelievable level. Drinking in the morning, on break, the second I was done with work (most days, 2 be...
