you essentially need to do a dopamine detox and start back from ground zero.
for weaning yourself off THC my strategy is to buy high-end CBD flower (online mail order in the US) and then taper my usage. At this point I am consuming about 1g of CBD flower every morning and loving it. Some vendors I like are holy city farms, beleafer and flow gardens.
Any references to prove or substantiate this? I’m specifically interested in the claim about adhd meds
My most recent successful quitting cold turkey was the result of a mis-dose of RSO oil. I took way too much and blasted off to the cosmos. I realized the only way out of the “trip” was to work on what I needed to change about my habits. During my session I made a list of changes I wanted to make in life and decided (or rather was told by the universe) that I needed a break from weed and everything else could wait. I woke up the next day and threw everything out related to mj use with the exception of a 10 mg edible in case I had any sort of withdrawal. After a couple days with no withdrawal symptoms I threw that out.
A month in and I can say there is SO much to look forward to after cutting out weed. The dreams alone are worth it. I had a single dream last week that seemed like a gift from the universe. It’s too subjective to share but it altered the way I react to and perceive any anxiety-inducing stimuli.
I still have so much to work on but it all seems manageable after this one win.
TLDR; Try to focus on one single thing you want/need to change the most and don’t let anything else overwhelm you. You need a win right now. The rest can wait.
Stimulants seem to be the clear path to restoring balance. It is after all the most effective treatment.
Weed is toxic in a “bad habit that scrambles what little executive function we have” way. Absolute devil drug and more addictive than methamphetamine for those with adhd IMO.
Weed probably has fewer side-effects than adderall, but the person selling it doesn't have any obligation to take your well-being into account. So there's more of a reason for random internet strangers to point out the obvious.
