Quitting Marijuana

Time to surrender. 

Whadduppppp!  BOOM baby!  What's your record so far?  What's keeping you on track?  Send us what's working for you for the love of Pete 'cause obviously I'm just a fledgling.  quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com 

Day 2 in the books, just wondering how I can better support you all since y'all have been supporting me.  Can't thank you enough for the positive words and stories, I want this to be a meaningful broadcast for you and so please shoot me an email at quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com with some things you've liked about the show, maybe some things you hate, and/or additional pieces yo...

'Cause I've got about a thousand.  But you brought me back and I'm starting to realize this is bigger than myself.    Many thanks to Sean for sharing his story with us!  quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com     ps-  sound quality is weak, and will continue to be weak until I'm back at my house

Thank you for the messages and words of encouragement, it was very powerful.   I always take something positive away from your personal journeys /stories, if you'd like to share some of the ways weed sucked you in and won't let go, the negative consequences of your use, shoot me an email at quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com.  It's about to get rowdy

Late night life update.  Still clean!  No scripture in this one, just dropped the ball.  

And I bought them both before the podcast finished uploading!  Wife gave me a look but then I told her I used a gift card lol.  If you have some other resources that have been helping you, send those suggestions my way?  quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com    I have included links to the texts below   #ad Russel Brand:  Recovery "The Joy of Quitting Cannabis:  Freedom From Marijuana"  by...

Classic addict, always wondering what we can substitute! 

What's good everybody got a great message from Liz out of Mississippi (spelled  m, i, crooked-letter-crooked-letter i, crooked-letter crooked-letter i, humpback humpback i).  Headed to Wim Hof to try and breathe those demons away then it's directly to bed!  Do not pass go, do not collect $200.  Lots of love, shoot me a message at quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com if you'd like to s...

Coming to grips with a new "self" and seeking other resources for staying on track.  Anyone have experience with marijuana anonymous?  Shoot me an email at quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com.  There is a meeting about 105 min from me but that's a haul for a work night... 

Realizing that with a busted up body a lot of stuff on the typical "lists" don't really cut it! 

Podcast announcement and 3 messages from listeners sharing their stories.  Would love to hear your symptoms of withdrawal and what you noticed as your health started to improve.  My bowl broke a few weeks ago...  Inside was a freakish mass of black, ash-filled resin packed so full that only the smallest needle-sized hole was permitting air to go from bowl to stem.  .  Wtf must my lungs look like??...

Yeah buddy!  I'm terrified of the weekend but I was able to get up here and podcast rather than burn, now headed to do some SMR before bed.  Lots of reflecting lately, it's crazy how the mind changes after a few days without bud.  

Some good scripture this evening though!  Got my meditation in, did some Wim Hof at school while the kids were in gym, and did an additional core session when I got home.  Gotta stay busy! 

And I do a lousy job of explaining it courtesy of melting my brain on Sunday but Saturday night was the eye-opener for me.  I got to see both ends of the spectrum, as well as experience a feeling of fear/powerlessness during a thunderstorm.  My friend overdosed on an edible, a friend who otherwise was not a big cannabis user until he met me.   Then I met a 20 y/o tow truck driver who said that job...

Fucked up 

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, 3 days is better than no days!  Should be a great day at work tomorrow I always look forward to the mental clarity and improved speech function.  Will be putting in my hour of meditation this evening before bed so that's different, but couple that with my hour at 4am tomorrow and I should be in a really great spot.  I feel like my life has more direction than it...

Staying busy is definitely the key to quitting dope!  I had literally 3 minutes of wait time yesterday, sooooo close to going out the door, and I took a poke.  Dang it!!!  Back on track today, got a game plan for tomorrow.  

A while back someone wrote in to me that they had been clean for a full year and staying distracted/busy was their key to staying clean.  It's so wild too because there is ALWAYS something to do.  Shave, tidy up the bedroom, pack lunch for the next day, etc.  I was getting lost in my phone, avoiding meditating and avoiding some drama with the wife and new I needed to snap out of it.  Came in...

Not a bit surprising that a few days without dope has me jacked!  How you doing?  

One foot in front of the other

Just gettin' it on, can't be afraid to tackle the good stuff.   Quitting marijuana is a one day at a time process!  If you've got some words of inspiration/wisdom you read or listen to, send it to me?  quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com 

It's the day before the stoner national holiday!  Had time this morning to podcast since yesterday was a big lift day, today at the gym will be yoga and back PT.   Trying to gain more self-control via meditation, did 2 hours on Sunday, 2 hours Monday, and an hour this morning.   1 session in the morning from 4am-5am, and 1 session in the evening ~8:15pm - 9:15pm.  Shoot me an email quittingma...

Peter and Solomon have more wisdom and strength than I do you guys, hopefully their story and wisdom help keep you straight.  It's been a struggle for me, cracked on Friday night after getting super drunk (I drink about once every 3 months) and then Saturday burned again after not meditating that morning.  I'm headed into spring break now so I won't be dropping another episode until...

Every day is another opportunity to grow.  Jordan Peterson has said don't compare yourself to others, only to who you were yesterday.  If you've had some positive experiences from quitting (even if you've since fallen off the horse) I'd love to hear them, shoot me an email at quittingmarijuanapodcast.@gmail.com.
