I stopped smoking, feel my own mind has changed

So I recently stopped smoking just to take a break.I have smoked heavily for over a year daily and now that I have stopped I feel my own mind set has changed. I smoked all the time everything revolved around it if I was out running errands I would stop by.the house and smoke then go back out from the time I would wake up till asleep.I would smoke. Now that I have stopped I see what it did to me. I can say I still love marijuana and will smoke(helps with stomach) but I look at myself in a sickening way I disgusted myself with how much I would put weed before everything. I would spend my last 50$ own marijuana rather than making sure I have food in my house. I can see what I have put my gf through for almost a year and a half now. I would use it as an excuse for my mood it changed me. If I didnt smoke I would be told that.I am a dick by multiple people even.if I tried not to.smoke my gf would.tell me to.go.smoke im being mean. It would fuck my emotions so.bad that really I didnt have any. I started my break on the first and had a puff on sunday night(was at a dinner with the chemo patient I supply and he puffs after dinner) and still I took a hit even though I have told myself not to. It didnt do.anything to me the one hit but im done for the remainder of the month. Just in the past few days I have noticed a wirlwind of emotions. I just recently had a friend slip.and they knew the rules and im done with.them.now have to cut the ties with them for my own.well being and protection.one if my friends she has been a good one.she helped me all through the last two.years of high school.becuase of her I met my gf.of almost two.years now and I can say just because of no weed emotions are bad as I type this I get sadder and sadder. I hate that just because I want to help.people by supplying medicine I get judged as a drug dealer and that im pretty much scum. I cant even share with half my.family that I even smoke for.the fear of being judged and my own.family not accepting me. Im going to apologize to everyone on here for when I may act like a dick or be rude to.others...stopping smoking is no.excuse but it is an emotional toll on me and I dont care what people say.marijuana is addicting and it is a drug... I can admit from.experiance now......just wanted to type how I feel sorry if this wasted any of your guys/gals time

and on a side note ............smoke is a much more effective and safer thing then alot of the pills and meds the doctors are pushing (13 years every week blood test to keep eye on kideny and liver functions since they were feeding me near lethal doses of lithum and depakote with riddlen).........side effect of all this was lose of hair by age 28 i am freaking crome dome do to depakote

i can function for 3 days on my natural built up amounts in system after that i am declining untill the point something pisses me off i react and someone gets hurt and i do jail time again ..................i smoke 1 gram a day have for 11 years ...............just keep changing the strains every 2 to 4 weeks and no need to smoke all the time .............do your days crap come home eat dinner smoke a bong watch some kung fu ........or go out ...................if something pisses u off or something really good happens have a joint hidden somewhere and pop it out relax enjoy let it go and deal with the trouble

I think if you need to constantly be on something, that's a sign of bigger issues. It's weed withdrawal so yeah you may feel depressed, anxious, have mood swings, irritated, etc... eat healthy foods, exercise, go outside and enjoy nature and get some fresh air, listen to music. Do things that will improve your health and keep your mind occupied.

ok .............dude something is not right if u got tears and withdrawls to need pills for weed............even when i was in jail with all those ppl i would never of been near on the outside it was 2 months of them before i cracked and told them to drug my ass up or someone was going to get hurt and that was after 7 years of running a party house

not being a ass or tring to make fun of yah but u might need to talk to someone and get head cracked open and checked for scrambled wires ( could the reason your habbit increased was do to something that happend in life and u used it as a way to bypass dealing with it this is a guy thing )

it sounds like you have bigger issues then just the weed, xanax, nicotine.

the real question you should ask yourself is why you feel the need to do any of these at all.
are you trying to escape something instead of facing your fears?
thats why most people drink, smoke, pop pills, dabs, etc etc.. some do it for genuine pain i will admit. some do it on occasions for pleasure. why do you do it?

Yeah, you're doing the right thing by dropping the weed for a while. I would smoke all the time too but I know from experience to just use it at the end of the day. Some weekends "go for it" but realize that if you're high all the time what do you have to look forward to? At my age I'm just happy I don't have pain that requires an all day buzz. Hell, I'd take a Tylenol before weed if it wasn't the right time of day. Now if I can just take my own advise and quit for a week or two I'd be doing great too! I did quit oil, it ruined the flower smoking too much.

Good job at self control. You've got more will power than most. Build on that.

To the OP - I think it stems a bit from misplaced priorities. Once you put things back in their proper order, your weed time should equate to a more enjoyable experience. I do not like to drink or smoke if there is a pressing issue that needs dealt with. Now chores around the house, they always get done stoned, and they get done. Work and business, get done first, then time to play. I have been smoking since I was 12 and daily for the last 25 years or so.
Just step back and get your ducks in a row and you will more than likely see it all come together like it should be.

Peace

Keep headstrong bro and anything is possible. If you don't like who you've become YOU CAN CHANGE! Put your mind into it, create a plan and execute it. I've tore my life to shreds in the past, once I had realized what I became I made some serious guidelines for myself that I have still stuck to.

A good question asked above why do you do it? Think about that and be true to yourself about the answer.
