Getting fully sober including quitting weed as an escape mechanism brought me a huge amount of peace, plus $500/mo back in money. I’m still struggling in many ways, took a huge pay cut to get into my current job (protected from AI for many years) but I have a savings account and a retirement account for the first time ever. Paying down debt, slowly. I get dopamine hits from interacting with people, fixing problems in my life. Instead of from a glass bowl and lighter, a bottle, etc.
Thanks to both of you, i really needed to hear this. I need to and am gonna quit. I aleady stopped drinking 1st of januari last year (i could bring myself to only drink on weekends, but still drank problematic amounts) which made huge improvements on my health but took quite a toll on my social life unfortunatly. I’m not really good with people and it was an easy mask to put on. But… Being high all the time (except when i’m at work) probably doesnt help with that. Im not really sure where i’m going with this comment. Thanks again for the inspiration. :)
