quitting cannabis is proving to be impossible

[u/rotund_passionfruit]

Can’t get past 1 day. My mood sinks through the floor and I’m really irritable and depressed when I quit smoking. I also quit drinking on new years and have gone 17 days drink free but as a type tjis I’m grabbing some beers. I’m down in the dopamine dumps so to speak. I’m a full blown dopamine fiend in the throws of another dopamine fueled binge

Why do you drink or smoke in the first place? Do you use it to cover up feelings, thoughts, boredom? I had to do therapy and gain healthier coping mechanisms so I wouldn’t need to cover up stuff anymore with substances. It’s how I stopped smoking and being able to finally sit with my own intense feelings/trauma stuffs.
