Not sure if this is the right place but does anybody smoke weed and want to stop? (lemmy.zip)

Mostly working on drinking as part of my recovery program but they also want me to quit thc as well. I use it mostly to wind down at night time and be locked in on my journaling and reading. Eventually I'd like to stop. Currently doing edible gummies so atleast my lungs get a break from the vaping. One day at a time I'd say is the motto

I've been a daily smoker for the past 6 years, always a little stoned, smoking in the morning etc.. What I hate and love the most about THC is how it will make you focus and fine with whatever you are doing, this brough me to depression after spending few year stuck in a work / smoke / game loop. At one point I was so down I just left my job and started just smoking and gaming until my mother litteraly went to my place and brought me back to my parent house after few weeks without giving them news. I'm still smoking but at least I do social activities, sport and work again. Also started dating recently which give me more motivation to limit my consumption. It's not perfect but it's way better than my depression phase and I can somehow imagine a future where I'm not stoned in front of a PC playing the same game for 10k hours.
