You can do it breh... there is soo much more to life than weed/walking around like a damn zombie. Look into yourself and DO what makes you satisfied in life...whether that's taking a walk, playing your favorite game (I know that's hard w/o weed), people watch etc...you have to want to break the cycle. Nothing wrong with smoking but try not to be dependent on it to get through the damn day. If so you'll wake up one day 50 yo wondering wtf?!
Man, its been two weeks and ive pushed my tolerance break back because Im struggling to cope with life sober. Been thinking about just vaping all the weed up and starting again new or just stopping indefinitely until i feel like its time to try again.


But i keep getting into a funk that i cant escape :mindblown: regardless. cant seem like i can get the right help. I feel like im being tortured and everybody around me seems to not care as long as they are good. Im TIRED of this shyt for real. But its like folks dont get it and want me to pretend im fine around them when I feel like absolute hell at times like now. It seems at my emotional darkest moments that im usually alone trying to figure out how to get rid of that shyt. I usually just isolate myself in my room and try to escape by going to bed and falling asleep.

I cant even motivate myself to do anything. shyt is annoying. I just feel like quitting life but i dont want to die.

I feel like i cant be vulnerable to other people without being shamed, mocked and ridculed. I dont even feel like going to professionals either because its like i feel like they dont care. I honestly dont feel good emotionally and dont feel like being around other people. I hate having to force myself around when i feel like shyt

Sighs...its been a mental battle lately. I'm not going to lie, I have just been having full fledge wars between myself, the past, and where I need to be in life. I find myself just focusing on music and endless thoughts of various projects, but at this point, I'm like what's the point?

Between waiting on a long overdue disability, coping with a potential mental condition, and just being to self....I'm about to take a wombat's advice and put my head in the sand and not be bothered with the outside world.

how do y’all combat intrusive thoughts?
I started with tai chi which led me to yoga and then meditation. You can learn to become a witness of your thoughts and distance yourself from identifying with all of them.

You can start to combat negative thoughts with positive ones. Become a gardener of your mind. When you have a thought you don't agree with imagine yourself plucking it by the root and replacing it with something else. You can jump ahead of the curve and find affirmations that you feel you need to hear and give that to yourself

It looks years before my inner voice was giving me positive feed back and leaning towards compassionate self love but I almost cried when it happened . Real talk :wow:

My Breh in the office is going through it due to his divorce.

He's in his early 20s and it's getting so bad that the senior project manager asked to have a talk with him even though this hasn't effected his work.

Take care of your mental health

Great thread i got to come back to and read more. Its hard out here but keep pushing everybody and try to find that bright spot in this world for yourself weither its family friends a pet etc. i almost died last summer, blood pressure was high as hell and i think i had a bad edible because it didnt feel like a regular high. Bumped my head in the kitchen and luckily for me i braced myself from falling on my head but couldnt feel anything for like 5 minutes

That experience fukked me up cause death has been on my mind more and the guilt of almost leaving my family gets to me but it makes me appreciate the simple things a lot more. Every day is a blessing brehs keep fighting and stay strong. We can do it

:to:

I started taking fish oil in addition to my normal supplement and I have to admit this shyt for real.

IMonday was my 1st day and the pill itself is hard for me to digest but once it goes down I can feel it... real talk.

I'm very active and hit the gym at least 2-3 times a week but this shyt got me feeling Godly my dudes. My heart feels even stronger, mental capacity feels like wow and I'm even more focused than I was before. I strongly recommend playas.

Reaching back out to this, I appreciate this man. Becoming a witness to your thoughts is such a profound statement.. as sometimes I feel like I internalize my thoughts rather than brush them off.

It is a opportunity for self reflection, as some thoughts may be due to the content you’re consuming while others are based on a unsolved problem or conflict.

Like you said, it’s all about cultivating your thoughts and pouring positivity in them.

Good looks bro.

I'm mentally checked out...

It feels like no matter what I do, I can't fix everything. All I know is that I'm hoping for better days and prosperity. That's all I can do. When trials become a trend, it seems impossible to believe that things will finally make sense.

I just need a moment, maybe a few more. Sometimes, I wish I could experience what it feels like to be out of debt, finally fulfilling a long term goal, and seeing the end results of trauma and so forth.

One day I will, until then I can just hope for the best I guess...

Most definitely have some undiagnosed issues going on but it seems like none of the shrinks ive been seem to notice. I think i have adhd or possibly some depressive, bipolar shyt maybe but most definitely got some adhd shyt going on. I would like to know what my issues are so i can live my life. Theres so much shyt i would like to do but honestly ive lost motivation to do them because i cant control myself enough to get it done. Im going to try to lay off the weed but that means me having to look for other ways of help.
