- Something I am most proud of. Getting sober after 7 years is one of my biggest achievements in my personal life because of how much I tried and failed over and over again. I always said I would and never did but here we are.. and we aren't going back. Hopefully, some people can relate

100 Days Sober From Weed: The Biggest Benefits To My Life (So Far)
Crazy to see so many comments with people who can relate exactly to me, who have their own set of benefits, who are just trying to get sober in general, personal stories and a lot more.
Also happy to see that everyone is supporting each other in their separate journeys and encouraging each other.
Thanks for getting this to 10k views. Part 2 of this video about the 200 day mark is coming out around August 3rd (since that is when I will hit 200 days)
I’m close to 100 days myself. The things I’ve noticed…
I have extra money
I don’t have brain fog as much
I complete my to do list more often
I recall my dreams more often
I workout at the gym again
Less anxiety
So true I’ve been three months sober from weed it feels really good 👍
Good on you bro but just some advice to you, don't worry about how many days you are sober because many people that live this way of life are still trapped in this idea of being an addict and that's exactly why they eventually relapse. My advice is just move on and go on with your next adventure in life. You were young, you had fun, you had experiences with that stuff but that's it, it was just a chapter and now on to the next. You are still young btw, but man, life it too short to count days of being sober, that's not our purpose here. Find your purpose and live it! You look like a good man and have tons of energy to make positive change for yourself and others so keep it up man, good luck with your journey!

That's what's up! Good on you, like seeing and hearing shit like this. Congratulations!!!
Dreams for some of us! How'd you do it?
I was heavily addicted to weed in the 80’s and early 90’s, along with booze and weekend coke use, along with other drugs. It was weed every day for me. I was so addicted to it that I stole it and money off people around me. It’s good to hear people talking about weed addiction, which is a very real thing.
i dont see enough people talking about the addiction side of marijuana (especially since it got legalised)
thank you so much for talking about it, this video will definitely help me on my journey.
Any time you bring it up people just brush it off as "not as bad" as other drugs. Which is true. But that doesnt mean it's healthy either. Oreos are healthier than methamphetamine, but eating Oreos 3 times a day isnt healthy. I'll do an edible once every few weeks when I have a day off. But a lot of people don't have the ability to limit their intake and really overdo it.
Funny that this came across my feed the same day I planned to quit weed for good. I've lost the past 2-3 years of my life to this plant. I've lost relationships and opportunities I could've made something great out of. All my friends are about to graduate college next year or have already graduated. I like viewing content like this because it helps give me a sense of something to look forward to while also discrediting my fears that I will be this socially inept and dumb forever. It feels like I've completely derailed my life at 21 years old. However, I know this is most likely just the weed talking through paranoia and fear. When you talked about feeling more alive, it really resonated with me as I remember saying the same thing at the peak of my mental/physical health directly before I started smoking. I want that drive and hunger for life again. I want to feel like ME again.
Thank you for posting this. Here's to a lifelong commitment to feeling alive for all of us on our sobriety journey. :)
Well done bro !! 🎉🎉 I'm on day 5 and going through all the withdrawals is horrible. Binging videos like this one help me so much. Thank you for putting your experience on YT
This video exactly describes the benefits I feel, 3 months now for me and the BIGGEST thing for me is the memory, being present, and not just feeling like a dumbass. I loved smoking weed for years, weed eventually just became me, everyday morning to night. Weed had a grip on my life, it wasn't easy to quit, I honestly still crave getting high and listening to music everyday. Despite that, I feel amazing and anyone struggling with weed addiction just know its better on this side. I tell people this all the time that I clearly see are addicted but just wont admit to themselves that its not healthy to be smoking everyday. Wish I was one of those people that could get high every couple months... but I love the ganja too much lol. On to the next chapter in life, great video!
Thank you for sharing this, I really appreciate it
@@therealist2000 yeah man, stay strong if you are trying to get sober :)
Here's my experience after completely quitting after several years of doing it on a nightly basis: After the initial urges go away within a few days, the crazy vivid dreams start. This can go on for ages and can be quite disruptive to your sleep. This is the only real negative long term withdrawal effect that I've noticed. There are several benefits, however; Having a much more balanced mood is the best thing as well as an improved memory. I've also been able to get things done much quicker and have more desire to go out and do things. I loved the feeling of getting high but it's honestly better to be normal!
I’ve been doing it nightly for about a year now and I guess constantly coming off of it has made my vision really weird. It makes me feel like I’m looking through a camera that’s pointing where I’m looking. I’ve also just felt really distant from everything, have you experienced any of this?
@@mr_meme_master1957weed is a hallucinogen in stronger methods so it’s not out of the question. But could also be a blood pressure thing, I’d check in with your doctor
i love the vivid dreams
@@aubreyplazasuncle same
@@mr_meme_master1957 its called derealization, stop smoking trust me
The biggest one for me so far is the feeling alive part. I actually want to do things outside of the house now. Also the eating part is kind of giving me troubles as I don’t want to eat much anymore, which is fine for now because I have some extra LBs to lose but I feel like I have to force myself to eat and I hate that. I’m hoping that it comes back to normal like you said it does. Also your delts are absolutely popping in this video my guy!
After a few weeks i got my appetite back and noticed i was eating proper food/meals, and not filling up an hour before bed on whatever was in my sight, this also got rid of the bad stomach from undigested food of a morning. goodluck mate 👍
@@Lonyoc I’m glad I wasn’t the only one that would stuff their face before bed. I sleep so much better now without that, plus I have dreams again
Good job bro. It’s been 2 weeks off for me I don’t have any plans of going back. I feel like a million bucks
Subscribed in support of your narrative, having wasted much of my life high, weed changes everything cuz it changes the smoker.
Keep going bro. People seem to have no idea how dumb they are when they are high on weed.
It's really not that bad imo so long as you're not searching for it daily. I'll take a couple edibles a week just to help me decompress at the end of a hard day. Gives me an insane body high and after working out there's honestly not much better than it. I feel like it's really how you consume it.
i can relate.. the problem with it is you're still a dumbed down version of yourself in social situations even the day after smoking. I find it takes a couple of days sober to feel myself in social situations.
I was a user in the 80s, and alcoholic. Quit the weed but nearly met my end with alcohol. I couldn't sleep during the pandemic and started using cannabis in various forms. Fast forward to today and I'm a sr. citizen stoner. An addict. Didn't plan for this. Looking seriously on quitting, looking for a way out - I appreciate your sharing A LOT. .
quitting doesn’t only improve your sleep but it improves your REM sleep which is connected to retaining things you learnt, processing trauma etc.. my biggest motivation to never be a chronic smoker again & to quit for now is that i want to be smarter. i have limited time to learn a lot and i will still never learn all the things i want to. weed is going to slow me down and lessen my potential. maybe after my frontal lobe fully develops i may partake more sparingly but not now.
also i have ptsd and i gyat to get my brain to hurry the fuck up and process ts
Congrats bro, keep going
great vid man, really resonated w me and what im going through
i smoked several times a day everyday for 3 1/2 years and just quit halfway through 12th grade. it fr doesn’t take that long after quitting to not have urges and i can actually remember shit now
I wish people talked more about weed's impact on a person's young mind as it is developing. The human brain completes it's full development in mid to late 20s. This is why Weed should even be touched until about the 30's. Destroying brain cells before they develop is going to have long term effects.
Remember, this was for me.
You may see similar things, a few different, or even all different.
Maybe weed is fine for you and you see no issues when you use it, which is definitely possible
Everyone is different
It is very relatable. Thank you for putting this together, great journey, hope mine goes well too
I'm on my 20th day off weed and cigarettes But I defo won't smoke weed ever again But I got Umonia from intake of shit and weed Iy frightened me to death Had to go in hospital for 4 days could not catch my breath.I have been on weed and 20 cigs away since 16 years old. NOW IM JUST 77 YEARS OLD AND WONT TO LIVE Not die yet Thanks for your info Congrats on your 100 days you deserve it Tell me do you smoke cigs before or just weed Take care my friend Good on you Barry in Pattaya city Thailand.
Really helpful video, going through the motions of getting sober from weed myself and found this all really relatable. Especially the stopping and starting. Any words on the crazy dreams? The dreams when coming off has put me back to square one a few times.
yeah, I've noticed my dreams have been way more vivid after i stopped. I went from not "dreaming" or remembering my dreams while smoking, to after I stopped, every night it's some crazy dream
Jesus love you brother! And he's very happy to see you sober
Been addicted to marijuana for over 50 year s. Done other drugs but tobacco and marijuana are the ones that are hard for me to quit.
I quit weed and tobacco 3 weeks ago. I still can't sleep properly but I'm really hoping my sleep will get better in the coming weeks.
Trust me it will, that was the hardest part for me but it does get easier after your 1st month...I was a stoner for 16 years and quit cold turkey Feb 28 2021. Never looked back since, my life has completely changed!!
@@Inactive1987 can you tell us more bro?
@@tommyvaughn2858 The 1st 2 to 3 weeks will be very hard..you're gonna be dreaming alot, fatigue, anxiety etc...after 3 to 4 weeks it kinda starts to get easier...after 1 to 2 months, you'll feel alot better, clearer, more focused...at that point you'll realize how weed had destroyed your life..but the road to recovery is amazing...your whole life will change!!
The "looking at life through someone's eyes" phenomenon is called depersonalization. I've felt it and it can be horrifying. Luckily, it seems like you didnt attach any anxieties to it but many people do and it can take years to get rid of the sensation and all the anxiety/depression that comes with it. Good thing u recognized it on time.
Imagine having the luxury to quit weed. I would love to be able to smoke at all.
For me, the main benefits are that my appetite comes back, my lungs and throat don't hurt, I cough up less mucus, and my bank account has money in it. Then I have a bad day and I start dabbing again. It's hard to stop, because I struggle with my mental health, and weed usually calms me down. It's hard when I'm on the verge of a panic attack, and I know one dab will calm me down instantly.
Same thing with me i was over eating, anxiety started aswell after 10 years .And yeah and you can’t be high forever so you always go back to reality . So its no point of doing it we wasn’t born smoking
Only 10k fuck I wish. Thanks for this I needed it
5:30 - Truth be told, this was my waking moment
I just think the weed today is crap,sure it has high THC but I remember a different feeling when I smoked years ago. The over the counter stuff just not the same. I remember laughing more and a fun high. Good for you keep it going I feel same about it now
Intermittent Fasting is God Mode! keep that up!
Dude is wearing a tank top over a sweater
close to one day myself, hope i can stay strong until then.
fr tho thank you, i see this as a warning to slow down. save it for that one time with the boys
My neighbour smokes a lot of weed, just makes her lazy, never sorts her problems out. You need a bit of hardship to get motivated, if you are zonked out all the time nothing gets done in your life, alright for a short while but not forever.
I am on 22th day I need some motivation i am under medication because of anxiety I am trying my best
Keep on dude, I know anxiety is tough and I have alot of respect for you quitting, I can't get to day one yet
nice work
wow this is an amazing video thank you so much !
It makes you feel so hollow on the inside. It makes you very snippy and moody, too.
At the end of 2023 and start of 2024 I smoked so much weed. I didnt have much since. I feel like that when I was high I was acting normal but when I was sober I felt horrible. It is really weird.
56 days clean in the beginning of the year now I’m on day 20 everything is mindset you control you not weed.
From a 54 yr old man who has seen people serve multiple yrs for having an ounce of weed .to seeing videos like this makes me think of two things-
- Don't trust the powers that be,that they won't reverse the marijuana laws.
- you are a young guy, and the Internet is forever, make sure you think closely before posting any drug use.
Bruh what 😭
In what country ?
54 year old stoners are pathetic af.
@@evanwoodhouse4568it’s a valid point. The man’s just offering caution. Ignore it at your own peril but don’t taint others from the potential advice
On point
Honestly bro that eating park is definitely not just a u thing but it’s not everyone I have the bad habit of getting hungry and thinking I need to smoke before I eat but once I smoke I’ll not be hungry. I have an apetite problem
That’s not an appetite problem. That’s a THC problem. That’s what the drug is doing to your appetite. The problem is you are smoking the THC and that’s what’s ruining your appetite.
@@RileytheRealtor96 yea munchies are a thing of the past for me
U look like the guy from Netflix movie called the “The Other Zoey”
Whenever I stop smoking weed I get nightsweats.
W video bro
“Living in third person” damn…
I haven't smoked weed in 4 years, quitting alcohol is next
Stop now alcohol withdrawals no joke
@@kjthomas4553 I heard about alcohol withdrawals the shaking, some people drink not to get drunk to avoid the shaking
I’ve been sober from weed since I was 14 lol
Good for you
Don't yell at me
How old are you?
he said he is 19 in the vid👍
Smoke for 22 years then try n stop
I’ve been smoking weed for 20 years everyday, I am now off it for 37 days, the first week was the worst, but after the 2nd-3rd week it got a lot easier, the worst part was the irritability and anger but it’s been going away since I started doing cardio and cold showers and breathing exercises, it’s been totally worth because now all the small things in life are more enjoyable and fun
@@Moto4Christ Yooo ! Great ! Thanks for sharing !!
I smoked for 25 years and am now 4 months without weed. It was only 3 hard days and then everything became much easier for me. After 2 weeks it was like I had never smoked before. Time goes by fast 2 weeks is nothing, you have to create a little character and you will get past it. I only regret not doing it earlier. Good luck to all, it's not impossible.
be glad ur not an alcoholic and won’t literally die from trying to stop😭 you can ease into it and with a negative mindset ur not gonna get anything done that you need to Goodluck bro
When someone says they have an addiction to tree I always laugh like stfu you couldn’t handle a real addiction if u think tree is addictive
You lying to yourself bud, if you have an addictive personality you can get addicted to anything. Yeah weed addiction isn’t going to be on the same spectrum of Xanax addiction but it’s still an addiction. You need to educate yourself my guy
You’re the addict bro, cannabis is highly addictive
I love my weed. helps me 100% totally legal too
There is a “youtube short” by a woman called Teal Swan called “the way out of your addiction”. I would highly recommend searching it up, from one pothead to another
Time will tell
Short term yes, long term no
THATS NO FUN
Dude you talk too much
When you smoke weed you do you not talk enough
Sorry that Cannabis didn't work for you, don't assume it affects everyone the same way.
Lame come back to 4/20 lifestyle lol lame
I’m 8 months sober from weed and life is so much brighter and better good job
When did the anxiety go away and brain fog / paranoia
@@Pjayfn after the two week mark it starts to go down little by little, since I was a really heavy smoker I think I started to notice significant difference at 3 months but most definitely at the 4-6 month mark i feel brand new, not to say I don’t have some bad moments or bad days, that’s normal but now I know I can get through it without smoking or drinking. I cope by going to the sauna, swimming, listening to music, dancing, talking to the family im blessed to have.
@@ari4everz so at the 3-6 months anxiety should return to baseline
@@Pjayfn yes 👍🏼
@@Pjayfn keep in mind I also had help from therapists because I struggle with PTSD. So therapy always helps a lot, no matter what you struggle with, even if you don’t think you struggle with anything therapy shows you coping skills that tremendously help with anxiety. Just find the therapist that works for you.
