Fantastic 4!

It's day 4 and I'm feeling good. I have to say I know it's not just the clarity from lack of THC - I also stopped consuming caffeine and am avoiding sugar.

I almost feel manic, and I know this newfound sense of feeling amazing might not last, but I kinda don't see why it shouldn't. Idk, I have hope that what I'm feeling now can just become my baseline. I'm not just quitting cannabis - I'm changing my life. Taking gummies everyday for weeks on end severely dulled my existence into basically go to work, go to the dispensary, go home and laze. I don't want to jinx myself by saying the things I want/plan to do, I'm just doing them when I think to do them. Last night I watched a movie before bed and another one this morning at 7am, which is my favorite time to watch a movie. One made me laugh and one made me cry.

I've been listening to music while cooking, doing dishes and getting my laundry going, and it just sounds so fucking good. Sounds better than it has been sounding with weed, tbh. Isn't that funny? I just feel so fresh and ready to say yes to the things I have been putting off. Revitalized.

I'm so happy to have this sub to write to and if you read this, thank you. I wish you well. I'm also totally here for anyone who needs a pep talk or some convincing to get on the wagon. If you're thinking about it, it's time.
