Really powerful writing, Becca. I'm currently 3 days into a sobriety journey myself after smoking marijuana about 10 times a day for the last decade. It's hard to exaggerate how much of a challenge it can be to break a habit like that. Even as someone who's had run-ins with more serious drugs, breaking my weed habit has been by far the hardest sobriety struggle I've ever faced without a doubt.
A couple times throughout 2023 I attempted to quit and each time relapsed after just a couple of days. And when I returned to it, I found that I was smoking 5-10% more than I had been before. I'm really hopeful that this time is will be different for me. It's always the hardest for me at night time when the thought of insomnia starts to loom, like you mention. Thanks for sharing this, Becca. It was really helpful to read this today.
