MJ detox advice

[Coordinate_Apotheosis]

Hello all,

I have had somewhat of an epiphany just now and have decided it is time to stop using MJ. I have smoked multiple times per day for almost a decade now , I am scared of the symptoms... has anyone here been a heavy user to clean and do you have herbal or vitamin advice to help it along? Google is as always a mess of contradictions on the matter.
Thanks
Michael

I was!  In fact I regretted it because my highs were never as good after I got clean the first time.

Mind you I went from 'gram slamming' thrice a day (so 3g a day) to stopping cold turkey the first time.  At the time my Mom was letting one of my friend's stay in the guest bedroom, she was as bad as my mom with smoking.

We were all addicts.

For me I simply had to muster the willpower to be conscious and say No.  Over and over.  Two months clean I found a job (oh and they didn't drug test...) and that same day was smoking again.

I believe Marijuana is healthy in moderation unless you're in pain or chronically depressed, in which case smoke away as much as needed to maintain that pain tolerance and to more easily giggle and laugh when depressed.

Sadly overuse does hinder the cognitive functions, memory especially...  It also messes with emotions, using an external psychedelic in place of your will to handle your emotions could be called simply inappropriate.  The result is your emotions get away from you.

Note that's assuming one isn't taking the time to be aware and to get to know the self.  If they are, such emotional turmoil may be much less common.

THC is a spiritual aid, not a fix all solution.

Strangely enough I still dream despite smoking right before bed.

I guess we're all different.

I would strongly recommend if you find weaning yourself off doesn't get you to that total quit, to just quit it cold turkey then.  I wouldn't suggest cold turkeying it if you've quit before, but if it's your first time, you might be surmised how well your body handles it.

Now...For me anyways, the second time has been grueling.  I can't seem to bring myself to quit totally, I'll end up smoking already smoked resin, stems and roaches, I'll clean my bong and pipe and scrape the resin from them and keep smoking.  I've developed a way to prolong my weed too by keeping some stuck in the grinder in the middle where it can't be ground, then combining that with the kief if there is any.

It's bad...  I realized how bad when I met a guy for sexual reasons (because I get lonely damn it) and found myself unprepared to smoke with him because things I took for granted he didn't have, like an ash tray.  Further it was like seeing myself in 3rd person next to someone who only drinks beer, I had a dirty pipe full pf black crud (resin), and I realized if this were crack I'd look exactly like a drug addict, and only because it's weed was it acceptable.

Ever since then I've realized more and more I'm an addict, of several things...

I've got my work cut out for me.
