Dyslexic INTP addicted to weed;

cold turkey it, should only suck for a couple of days and after that it's a matter of discipline. quitting cigarettes or alcohol is much harder. good luck.

why would it be harder to quit alcohol?

>>18372327
Stop. Smoking. There's no advice anyone can give you if you don't grow some balls and quit

Physical withdrawal like shaky hands, delirium tremens, and stuff. Most people who quit weed after regular use only experience mild insomnia for a couple of days.

Why is weed an issue then if it helps you be a better person? Do you want to be that person without weed?

What's funny is you don't mention weed causing you any problems. Perhaps it's something you should have been prescribed? I wouldn't recommend being stoned 24/7, though. Maybe curb your use if you notice it is detrimental to your life in other aspects.

I quit cannabis after 8 years of daily use and im a grower. Did it cold turkey as i have hypoglycemia and cannabis causes insulin production.
Got hypoglycemia from alcohol, ended up giving me increased heart rate, tremors, DT's, cold sweats, warming in my whole body, insomnia, innability to eat, nausia, vomiting, loss of coordination, etc all the way to a seizure for 4 days straight. It gave me hypoglycemia from stress and damage during and before the withdrawls. Was drinking for just one year and quit on my own two feet having withdrawls i didn't think i could get.
When i quit weed i didn't have one problem, and i grow!
I am also a INTP personality and i have dyslexia aswell.

Similar experience here with weed. I lived with a grower and had unlimited supply for over a year. Smoked everyday, multiple times per day.

Quit cold turkey when I moved and didn't have a single issue. Not even cravings.

Weed isn't a chemically addictive substance. But that doesn't mean you can't be addicted to what it does for you, like if you use it as a crutch to help you escape from life or help you with anxiety. Then you rely on it's effects to get you through day to day life because you haven't built the coping mechanisms you need, or you atrophied your coping skills by relying on weed.

I was considering getting blazed outta my mind recently (MJ virgin) but after reading what you wrote, I don't think I'm cut out for it. I hope you'll be able to kick your addiction, OP. That fucking sucks

I think you may have misunderstood him. He was comparing his horrible withdrawals from alcohol to the nonexistent problems he had from quitting weed.

If you'd like some advice on your first trip, I can offer some.
>don't smoke till you're 25 or older
>Smoke alone first.

>days before you smoke, consider your mental health and review your worst memories. When high on weed, you aren't less of who you naturally are when sober, you are (and this sounds cliche) hyper aware of your senses and memories. So if you are afraid to face any of your old memories or fears, don't smoke. Paradoxically, this is also why it's so helpful for PTSD. You feel some how buffered to the sharpness of your memories because of your altered perspective on them, all while being forced to handle the memories. The more you handle a sharp and painful memory, the more you sand it down till it loses it's edge and you lose the fear of it.

>Your subconscious mind WILL confront you with the problems you are ignoring in your life and you won't get a choice in this confrontation when it happens (though it doesn't happen every session). This can be the moment people think they are having a bad trip. I've found this very helpful though because I actually want to improve my weaknesses and character flaws. It's not comfortable and can be depressing but man is it helpful.

>At all times while high, you are still yourself. You won't piss yourself. You won't be mean and say things you normally wouldn't. You don't hallucinate. You are safe at all times.

>music is amazing and you'll be hyper aware of why it sounds good to you. Have some ready in case you begin to have a bad time. Drop the lights, lay down, listen to music to calm and center yourself.
