I have no doubt cannabis helps lots of people and I hope more and more studies are done for strains that help people get off of opiods without causing psychosis. I also got lots of benefits from cannabis and started taking it after more than 20 years of abstinence to deal with chronic pain... and it helped. Then i started using it for energy, to relieve boredom, to entertain. I do feel more creative and alive with cannabis.

So it sucks, frankly, to give it up.

Also I can add that feeling like a criminal is a whole lot better than being one and my last psychotic episode led to criminal charges... so every time i think of lighting up I just remember sitting in a cold jail cell rubbing my feet to stay warm...

And i don't have the self-discipline to stick to low THC because I always end up chasing the high, which I crave, and the high CBD just sap my energy, which I don't have much of anyway, so that is why I had to give it up completely.
