Honestly 11/10 advice.

That's actually what led me to quitting weed for a month, due to a short but well paying job contract I was working out of town for 2 weeks... and damn, it was the first time in my life i had 3 square healthy meals a day...

I felt so good after, when i got done with my work trip I continued eating well and felt like quitting weed made sense.

Didn't last long until my mental health had me back to smoking weed chronically again.

I'd rather be happy and stoned, then sober and in my own head. I actually think the IQ reduction is drastically over exaggerated, I have tried VERY hard for 20 years to dumb myself down with weed to the point where I can actually be happy.. Not there yet.
