How to not relapse on drugs.

[shelbyvolz]

Because of you I'm over 30 days clean cold turkey from vaping. I stopped counting days because I'm never going back. Thank you so much

[aaddiction]

This is honestly so true. I'm already addicted to nicotine and weed, and at one point, when I was doing factory work, I started picking up drinking daily. It got to a point where I'd subconsciously stop at the gas station down the road and pick up a tall can of beer every day. Once I acknowledged it as a problem, I took some time away from all alcohol and now, any time I drink, I tell myself I am choosing to drink. It keeps you in a mindset that it is something you have control over.

Thank you for your content. You showed up on my feed with perfect timing, right when I decided to stop smoking THC after being a heavy smoker for 8 years. I watch your content everyday, it’s nice hearing wisdom from someone that can relate. Keep it up please more people need to see this and need your help.

Thank you.

Accountability is paramount. Blame it on yourself, b/c if you don't, those 'outside' factors that 'made you relapse' will always pop up and keep you stuck.

Weeds the hardest because it’s looked at as harmless and a lot of people smoke it but the thing is it does effect your ability to be active and alert

Every time I feel like relapsing, I watch one of your videos. Thanks man. 4 days clean after 20 years of mostly wake and bake all day smoke. I feel like I am high while sober ... like sober is the new high.

[Hanover_outdoorsman]

Thank you for being truthful .
I am going on 9 years clean .

I got in truble at every rehab I went to for saying that out loud .
They would say your disease, or some guy would say that I relapse because of my disease.
And I would say take accountability for your actions you are choosing to make that.
Now your brain is wired that way because you’ve been using for so long and it is hard to get off of but at the end of the day you are making a choice, it’s not a disease it is a choice.

Love this. Im going out tomorrow and have been thinking all day what i can blame it on if i do relapse... ultimately i will end up doing it because i make the choice to. Heres hoping im strong enough not to.

This has been true in my experience involving alcohol.

I maybe have 1-2 drinks a year, instead of 1-2 per night like I did for years when it was hugely problematic for me.

I still consider myself a non-drinker (in spite of my very occasional drink).

[masjuggalo]

Interestingly enough, I've been smoking both cigarettes and weed since I was in like 7th grade recently. I was in between jobs and money was short. It was a lot easier to go without weed than cigarettes

[lucienarruela]

So I once tries crack for a few months till I saw two people die. So I've been clean well over a year off crack/coke. Before that habit I smoked weed for about 18 years. I quit smoking cigarettes because I'm taking antidepressants but I can't give up weed, I've convinced myself without it I'm nothing, what would you say about that? I can't function correctly if I'm not high off weed, how would I get a medical detox for that?

[wreckyjack]

No. The reason you made that choice and relapsed is that deep down you still think you NEED the substance to function normally. As long as u still view it as a good thing even if very slightly, you will either end up relapsing or you will have strong annoying cravings. Step one is get rid of the idea that it does something good for you.

Im quitting cold turkey. Im on day 3. Its getting easier now and the heart palpitations are slowing down significantly. This shit is insane. Weed is a joke compared to quitting 50mg saltnic. I smoked weed before and theres almost no actual withdrawal symptoms. These mild heart attwcks and chest pains from nic withdrawl feel like death. Theyre going away but i can tell u all nicotine is best weaned off of. Cold turkey from a high use is a near death experience.

[AirJKB]

Seriously though, yesterday I had a very sick cat, run to get more meds for him. A terrible tooth ache started. Went to CVS. Had a fight with my brother which left me shaking… and I’m like, this always happens! Whatever can go wrong will when I quit. I can’t let the sabotage win. I’m quitting weed and 20 cigs a day. I think the weed is more of a craving than the cigs. I’m just giving myself some experimental days and really weak homegrown 15% thc Vs 33% THC and a lighter cigarette. I’m not happy but I’m not dying either… thank you for your videos. I haven’t been not-stoned in years.

Trying to get clean from self harm- I cant go more than a week without relapsing. I watched this for help.






It did

[Setobagh]

Clean 4 months, thought i can control and do once in a while. Went on to destroy my savings and went broke in 2 months. Did at least 7-10 grams a day.

Life was great. If fucked up.

Day 4 again from the rockbottom. Doing tobacoo until the sleep comes back phase.

[mazzimhlongo]

I'm not dependent I usually go for two to three months without weed... But I sometimes come back from work tired yet very bored. So I'm not in the mood for gym or going out, and opposite my house is my plug. Sometimes when my window is down the weed smell creeps in

Get a sponsor, work the steps, work them honestly, throw your self into others get a service commitment find your higher power and take others through the steps. Service, unity recovery.

How do I deal with blurred vision. It's really irritating!

[BillyLee-]

I never considered it a relapse until I was completely clean. Meaning not physically dependent.
