    165 days without busting a nut. I almost don't believe it. It's been a whole half year since I've busted a nut and it just feels so unreal. I never thought I would make it this far, but here I am. I just decided I wasn't going to make the same mistakes and I decided everyday that no matter how bad I wanted to I wouldn't bust a nut.

    Yesterday I felt real good. I got invited to go play board games. My friends sent me messages to go, but by the time I saw them it was too late. I kind of feel bad about it. I'm just going to make up an excuse and hope they don't get mad. Even though that happened I'm still feeling so much energy and strength and I smile a lot and laugh at everything. I feel like I am high on endorphins serotonin and dopamine. This is probably how humans felt all the time before modern technology and lifestyle.

    Sometimes music just sounds so great that I wonder if I've smoked any cannabis, but no it's just what getting rid of all the dopamine draining vices of my life feels like.

    I've quit all cannabis usage also. I'm on day 38. Last time I got high I had to miss my dentist appointment cause I started having a panic attack. It was so horrible I decided I wasn't going to smoke anymore.

    I've also greatly reduced the amount of sugar I'm eating and drinking. That means no sodas, no sweets. I still get some from different foods like cheese and milk but it's negligible.

    After quitting cannabis I kind of feel like superman. I'm just so smart and confident. There's this aura I have now. That's the only way I can describe it. People pick up on it and they all like me and want to spend time with me.

    I don't think there's anything wrong with cannabis. I just think it was downregulating parts of my reward system and making me more anxious in the long term.

    Really proud of you, man! Keep it up! I agree about Cannabis although I still like it occasionally in the right context. You are very very smart to cast off all the simple carbs, sugar and soda. Very smart.


    Best of luck dude!
