Hey all,
Been lurking in this forums, usually, I would be just a spectator, but seeing so many experiences, I thought I'd post mine. So, at my teen years, I had a bad experience with my first love, lets say, and so I found shelter in weed. It helped me find my artistic side, I also became less of a hyper-active kid. I also started to love movement being high. I started doing roller-blading and eventually I found what is my occupation now - breaking (breakdance in mainstream term, if you want to check it out, you can youtube Bboy Konstantinas)
Right now, I'm around at second week of not smoking. I'm not sure if I'm having these terrible symptoms like other experiences I read here, probably because weed is quite expensive here in comparison to minimum wage and I would smoke a gram in 1 to 3 days which is not so much like some people did.
Now, I've been breaking for as long as I've been smoking. Weed made me an excellent freestyler in this art. I could create at the moment and would literally dance for hours. Now, I'm 29, I am doing classes for kids, I belong to a council of breaking because breaking is about to hit to Youth Olympics from 2024.
Thing is, it's really hard to dance now and enjoy it. It seems like I'm not enjoying it anymore and I'm going thru same dance patterns instead of creating something in the moment like I used to. And I've built all my life on this. I'm having these doubts is this thing really for me, but then again, I think, I wouldn't have been doing it if I wouldn't like it, with weed or not.
SO, my question this, has anyone experienced a lost of artistic side because of quitting weed and how did you cope with it?
