great to read about you people going through the same thing as i am.
i have a 20 year habit on my back. i have managed to be successful in life and keep myself fit and eating healthily. However, i feel this minor control situation is what has kept me in the addictive cycle for so long.
i know where my addiction stems from. i was bullied at school and found myself isolated from the usual social life of a teenager. the drug became my best friend and i wasnt so bothered about been isolated anymore as the drug filled the void. but we all know this is an illusion.
so here i am..37 years old with a 20 year habit. fortunately my life has turned round and for many years i have been happy. great friends and an amazing partner. but im still stuck in the cycle of addictive behavior.
today is day 6 without weed. im still feeling the detox and all the old emotions i suppressed with the drug have resurfaced. one minute im fine then the anxiety and panic kicks in. however, controlled breathing and relaxation exercises have worked a treat in calming myself down and remaining rational.
i want to live a normal life now and be fully in this world rather than out of it.
hearing your stories gives me great strength and im focused now more than ever to be free.
thank you for sharing your experience
