Oh, I didn't see that. Wasn't wearing my glasses. You got me. Classic defensiveness.

Repressed memories are complete BS. Sorry.

In 30 years, I’ve gone a full month without about 3 times. I’m addicted although helps positively with exercise, work stress, and general appreciation for the little things. I’ve survived 27 years of Houston Corporate rat race and 25 years marriage. I genuinely feel like it helps with perspective and health. I don’t have much advice to offer but perhaps 90 days is a small sacrifice for the one you love.

Thanks man. I appreciate your perspective. Keep fighting the good fight!

The first couple weeks are probably the hardest after using it for that long. I’d keep the exercise and busy routine going, but also tell your therapist exactly how much the anxiety and panic have increased since quitting. They may be able to help you find something that works for those acute moments without replacing weed with another habit. One week is already a solid start.

This is good advice. The L Theanine should really help you a lot. You should really make sleep a priority also. If you have a chronic sleep deficit, it might take a week or two of solid, prioritized sleep before you start to regulate. If you have trouble sleeping, there is a supplement called phosphatidylserine you can try that could help. It can be a little pricy but it works really well for some people. Good luck. For what it’s worth, you’re doing the right thing. I am 100% sure of that.

Thanks man. I appreciate you.

Depends on what I’m doing but I “deploy” to anywhere in California, and very rarely an EMAC to another state. Like hurricane Katrina, a lot of people came from other states to do USAR (search and rescue) and be a part of the incident management team (IMT).

I’m certified as an Operations and Logistics section chief for all hazards. I’m working to get on a type 1 team meaning I could “deploy” to anywhere in the country.

Most of the time I’m working on responding to animal disease or infestation outbreaks.
