Thanks so much, bro! 💪 Sending my love from Canada!

That means a lot, thank you! Glad it helped

Thank you so much! Your comment made my day!

That's what I'm talking about! We all deserve to see ourselves that way. Thank you for the comment! @smoothdahustla9729

Hahahaha Fr Fr! I promise you I'm not holding in my pee! Lmao, thank you for the lovely comment!

Fr, it's been my most rewarding achievement, quitting and abstaining from drugs. Getting to live my life sober how I always wanted too. Have you managed to put it down since then? If not, I would love to give you a helping hand so you can feel free again

Your dog is a soulmate that is proof to me. God bless you two souls. Congratulations man.

Wow! What an achievement! Have you made the progress you desired? I was in the same boat. I've recently stopped watching porn and haven't had it in my life for 2 months now! What a freeing feeling it's had over me, let me tell ya. Good on you for taking action to make your life better man, I'm proud of you! Sorry to hear about your dog, I'm sure he would love seeing you full of life, free from those devilish restraints

Congrats on reaching day 7! It’s a challenge, but it’s good to hear you’re making progress! Are there any specific videos or support that would help you at this stage of your recovery?

​@AnthonyApproved now u just smoke guys

Beautifully said, thank you for sharing!

You got this! You can achieve that Freedom!

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Your support means a lot 😊

Thank you so much for your continued support and for sharing your experience. It means a lot to hear from someone who's been following along. Your honesty about your struggles with grinding and scraping resonates deeply, and I appreciate your openness. Those were some of the worst nights of addiction, feeling like a raccoon digging through garbage just to get a snack. Your words truly mean a lot. Thank you for being part of this journey.

Hey Luke. Thank you so much for sharing your journey and for your kind words. Your commitment to sobriety this month is a significant achievement, and I'm genuinely proud of you. Remember, every step forward, no matter how small, is a testament to your strength, determination and resilience. Keep up the amazing work, you've made it to you're new chapter! Know that If you ever need support, you're not alone in this journey.

@@AnthonyApproved thank you! I've been sober for a month at the end of last year, but went back to it after I got another cart. Going AT LEAST 90 days this time but am not focusing on a timeline, rather improving myself a little bit every day. Been working out 6 days a week, and swimming/hot tub/cold plunging/and going into the sauna after taking niacin(to rupture fat cells) and activated charcoal (to bind the THC) and sweat it out. I appreciate these videos as they remind me I'm not alone and to keep my mindset right throughout the temptation, but I'm still going strong 💪🏼

Luke, your commitment to self-improvement is truly uplifting. It's evident you're striving towards your full potential, and that's commendable. I'm genuinely grateful that my videos can offer some support along your journey. Keep pushing forward, you're doing the best thing for yourself. Just know that I'm rooting for you every step of the way!

I Appreciate the support, bro! Your encouragement means a lot. Let's keep pushing forward together. 🤝

This video was about weed and alcohol...

@@AnthonyApproved I mean this is kinda heinous for weed if you have an addictive personality do not use these things if you are already addicted it is not the weeds fault or the alcohol it is your bad decisions mixed with circumstance.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. For many like myself, quitting drugs isn't just about having an 'addictive personality.' It's a relentless battle, especially when the lure of substances is as close as a corner store. Imagine being in a storm, with drug stores on every street corner offering temporary shelter from the chaos. The video aims to illuminate these challenges, not to vilify substances. The fight against addiction is akin to navigating treacherous waters; it requires more than just willpower. Many, including myself, have felt the weight of life's struggles crashing down, seeking solace in these temporary havens. Breaking free from this cycle demands understanding, support, and often professional intervention. Your perspective adds depth to the conversation, and I appreciate it

Phillip, your kind words mean a lot to me! It's not just a wish anymore; I've been dedicated to honing my storytelling skills, guided by what my heart tells me. Your comments are truly motivating and have inspired me even further. Thank you!

Nate, thank you for your insightful comment! To be honest, I hadn't even considered the allegorical interpretation you shared-it's truly enlightening. Your perspective adds a new depth to my story. I appreciate your dedication to creating a better world; it brings me a sense of warmth. Your message is an act of love for humanity, and I'm grateful to have you as part of this conversation.

No problem at all! If you have any further questions or need more assistance, feel free to ask

Thanks a lot mate! I really appreciate the support!

Thank you Dustin, it means a lot to me to read such supportive comments. You've given me a new muscle fiber of determination!

Absolutely, it's an ongoing battle, but congratulations on your 16 months of strength and resilience! You're absolutely right about that 'intruder'-it may quiet down, but it's always lurking, ready to pounce when least expected. Stay vigilant and keep fighting. Keep pushing forward, one day at a time

For me Caffeine has been good, many scientists do up to 4mg/LB of body weight. I cant quit weed, at least now, not because I don't like myself sober. I dont have access to my creative faculties when I am sober. And theres nothing scarier than losing my imagination personally. Except for Hell

It's understandable that creativity is vital to you, and I've been there too. I still struggle when I bounce right to caffeine to get me through parts of my day. But it's crucial to consider if the benefits of weed outweigh the potential drawbacks. While it might feel easier to lean on it for creativity, I've found that exploring other avenues offer long-term benefits for health and overall well-being. My clarity to make these video's has never been better since I quit. I'm free from all of those restraints. Remember, making changes is challenging, but prioritizing your overall wellness is worth the effort. Thank you for sharing your experiences, you've got this

Thank you for the very kind comment Marumali!

Thank you for your support! I hope you find some inspiration or motivation in my story on your way to work. Have a great day

Thank you newt!

Thank you for the appreciation! It means a lot to read that my explanation resonated with you!

Thank you both for leaving a comment and sharing your experience. It's evident that both of you have had similar experiences with weed and the challenges it poses. The realization that weed has transitioned from being a solution to a problem and has affected motivation is a significant insight. Taking up a different activity like yoga is worth entertaining. Finding healthier alternatives and ways to refocus your time and energy can be key in breaking free from the habit. For me, exercise and editing was my outlet. Remember that it's never too late to take steps towards a healthier lifestyle and regain control of your motivation. It may feel lonely at times, but the journey to self-improvement is worth the effort. Surround yourself with positive influences and activities that nourish your well-being. Stay resilient and believe in your ability to overcome this challenge. You have the strength to make positive changes and lead a fulfilling life!

@@AnthonyApproved thank you for the thoughtful and inspiring message! ive been focusing on trying to only use before the gym, its my little excuse. but i realize i just have to stop.

You're taking positive steps by limiting weed use to before the gym, but recognizing the need to stop altogether is a crucial realization. Remember, you have the power to make this change. Set specific goals and find healthier more meaningful coping mechanisms. Surround yourself with supportive people and stay committed to your goal. Believe in your ability to make positive changes. You've got this!@@entrophyalligned

You’re 16. You could stop now and never be too deep. Youre only getting your foot wet. I started right at that age and if I could go back in time and change one thing in life it would be to not smoke. It would have kept me in a different friend crowd, I would have gotten better grades, had a better relationship with family. All of this matters at a younger age because it will determine how the rest of your life plays out in the future. It’s hard to change something that stems from decisions you made in your youth. That is why it is so valuable. Not to mention the effects that drug usage has on the brain, especially a much younger and still forming brain. When you are younger your brain cannot understand that. You think you are invincible. Save yourself while you can. I’m 25 now. My life wasn’t even that terrible in comparison to other people. I was smart in school, I didn’t fail. In comparison to myself, the life I could have had- without weed - it’s a life I’ll only dream and long for the rest of my life. It’s not about weed only. There is so much more. Think about the butterfly effect. Weed puts you in a negative lane. It will be harder to be the guy that doesn’t smoke, drink, etc. - Imagine 10 years from now you will be a damn unicorn. Purple Skull Fortnite Glowing Eyes Skin. Legendary. Someone who harnessed their willpower, strength, money, and focus. Make your parents proud. Yourself.

@@LAD1149 man i never looked at it this way.. thank you for telling me this i hope the best for you and your family 💪 ill do my best to stop, there should be more people like you around!

Thank you for sharing your perspective and personal experience. Your advice is incredibly valuable, I hope this young man feel's more at ease to face his usage. It's very important for young people to consider the impact of their choices on their future. I feel the effect's of my bad decisions from years ago still to this day. Your words serve as a powerful reminder of the importance of making positive decisions for oneself and one's future. Thank you for sharing your insight Lad!

Thank you for sharing your experience. It's brave of you to acknowledge your struggle with weed. It's not easy to confront these challenges, but the fact that you're trying to lower your consumption and ultimately stop is a significant step in the right direction. Your determination to overcome this is commendable, and with patience and determination, you can work towards a healthier path for yourself. Stay strong, and know that there are people cheering you on and supporting you in your journey to make positive changes in your life. You've got this!

Thank you for sharing your experience and encouragement Drasil! It's inspiring to see such a compassionate response! Keep pushing forward everyone and stay strong! You got this!

@@AnthonyApproved Wouldn't be here if it wasn't for your video! Sometimes TH-cam recommends a gem, this was one of them. It's important for people like us to not feel like we're doing this alone. Even if we live in different places, all over the world! So thank YOU for sharing this with us :)

Thank you Polete! I'm very grateful to read that my video was able to provide value! Thank you for sharing your struggle's. It takes courage to acknowledge and confront addiction. I'm glad to hear that you are kicking out your bad habits to live a better life for yourself! If you need any support I would love to help as best as I can. However that may be. I believe you can overcome your addictions and live your most desired life!

Thank you Rolo! I'm very grateful for your message. If I only learned and took away one thing from my drug use. It's that I should always keep my word to myself. I appreciate your comment!

Can't stop me now! 'Cause I'm having a good time, having a good time! Thank you!

I appreciate you connecting with the content of the video. Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts Anthony!

Thank you DJ! Will do!

Thank you!

Thank you! I've always loved to make TH-cam video's. I use to make over the top gaming video's that provided no inherent value other than entertainment. So my intention here is to learn how to make real world valuable content! God is wonderful!

@yApproved Amazing bro, I hope you get what you want! Talking from Brazil here, the algorithm is crazy sometimes
