For me, it always felt like if I had to stop smoking marijuana, so many things that I was so used to would just stop and I wouldn’t know what to do with my new life without weed. It was definitely so much more psychological than anything else really. But why…? what was the root cause of my fear?
I had literally gotten so used to my surrounding and how it all played in to my marijuana addiction that the thought of losing my pothead friends, quitting all the weird things we did and just always getting lost in my own head had me feeling anxious. But the truth was that I knew that I really had to stop smoking weed or else…
I guess people have many reasons as to why they don’t want to stop smoking marijuana “for now”, but if you look at it closely, it all boils down to the fact that they are terrified of CHANGE! Because change seems like an ugly, unwelcomed guest that doesn’t fit in with the rest of us right…?
Listen, I went through the exact same thing man, I don’t know why change seemed like such a bad thing at the time. But it wasn’t till I tried it that it proved itself otherwise. Have you ever gone somewhere that you didn’t want to go, but then, after being there for a little while it didn’t seem too bad?
Well, that’s what change was like for me. After the first few days, i began finding interests in different things that just seemed so cool to me, like wonderful new thoughts and deep emotional relief. eventually, it became so clear to me that I didn’t know what I was doing to my life when smoking pot.
I clearly remember asking myself why i would trade so many good things in life that are possible with being a slave to something that made me more & more miserable… Sometimes we don’t have all the answers when we need them, they come to us later, after certain experiences.
Bottom line, there was no future for me during the pot years… The depression and uneasy anxieties got so bad that I didn’t care what would happen if I had to stop smoking marijuana, I just had to quit, that’s all I knew…
Listen, change isn’t nearly as bad as you might think it is. Think of some of the best things that ever happened to you because you decided to do something differently. At first, it might have seemed unwelcomed, but then, it became a part of your life right?
Well, that’s what I mean, if you quit smoking pot, your new life might intimidate you and you might feel empty. But I tell you that you might surprise yourself as new things enter your life and help you see things in a different light. You just might love the new you!
If you’re sick of it all and want to stop smoking marijuana, just open your heart and welcome change, then don’t look back!
