Comment on What brings you peace in your life?
Lommy@lemmy.world 5 hours agoThanks 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. :)

I’m not good with people as well. You can’t solve all your problems at once, but you can take some weight off your shoulders. Every bit helps, every small step forward gives you a little more energy, a little more emotional wiggle room and belief in yourself.
Not gonna lie, it’s not easy. It took a long, long time for my brain chemistry to readjust so I could feel joy again from something else than weed. And I’m not sure if I could have done it without help from family and friends (the very few that I have).
But I am so glad that I somehow made it. You will be, too. I root for you, my friend, and I wish you well.
