I was a huge pothead for years in highschool and after. Only recently, after getting a pretty good paying job that performs random drug tests do I see that, at least for now, I have to leave marijuana behind me. Smoke one for me, fellow stoners.

(At least psychs are still on the table ๐Ÿ˜‰)

I took a long break several years ago due to work and just general burnout. Doing so gave me some perspective on how smoking was affecting me physically and mentally, and allowed me to make some positive changes in my life. I still enjoy puffing my THC vapes occasionally, but I don't stay ripped out of my gourd like I once did. Maybe you'll find some positivity in quitting. Good luck with your journey.

It really sucks there are still places that test for THC. My state banned most pre-emolyment testing, hopefully that's in the cards for everyone in the future.

Good on you for making the right choice for yourself! Weed and the community will still be here if/when you return โค๏ธ

Have you tried cbd or cbg? Obv it's not the same, but still helps with sleep, anxiety, etc. Cbg kinda boosts the cbd, or on its own helps with migraines. Also, cbd + 1 drink feels like 3 drinks to me - makes for a good cheap night without a hangover.
