My questions were too specific for google

Question / Info

I've been clean for 10 weeks now after smoking about 3-4 blunts every day for a good 6 months and getting CHS. I'm very lucky that my experience wasn't nearly as bad as others in this sub and according to research i did i only ever had stage 1 (which i'm very grateful for). My nausea was waking me up every single day and i couldn't eat unless i smoked, i started having panic attacks and quite strong anxiety over things i would normally be able to handle, it really wasn't fun but my symptoms seemed to mostly go away as soon as i smoked again. Thankfully i got a tiktok on my fyp about CHS and i found out it existed and tried my best to stop smoking as i was terrified of going into stage 2 and ending up in the hospital, i started cutting down but eventually felt so panicked about getting sicker that i just quit cold turkey. It was not fun at all, i was really nauseous all day and eating felt impossible, and now looking back i realize that a lot of my struggles that week were probably just withdrawal symptoms, but either way i got through it and i feel so much better now and haven't had issues since. I have no plan of going back to my old habits as im still really scared of this condition and what it can do to your body but i would like to casually indulge every once in a while (like once every couple of months) but every time i try to google if ill get sick again i get answers that i think apply to people that were unfortunately much worse than me, so im asking here instead. do you think i could have a couple hits every couple of months without feeling violently ill again,considering i only ever got to stage 1 and i've been completely clean since mid august? sorry for the long post i just really wanted to give a lot of context to get the most accurate answer :)
