Long time recreational user suddenly ???

[apahllo]

Hey everyone,
long time listener, first time caller.
Looking for some help because my IRL circle is tiny.
Recently, anytime I play in the snow, I get nauseous.
Previously I could knock out a G or 8ball with a friend throughout the night and feel nothing but bliss. I recently took a ~3 month sobriety break, and now I can’t even think about making a snowball.
I’ve tried from multiple vendors, multiple friends that use their own vendors. doesn’t matter. if I play in the snow at ALL, I will be puking within 10minutes.

I thought it was maybe a tolerance thing, but i’ve been back home and partaking for over a month now with no change.
Play in snow, throw up, immediately feel better, play in snow again, repeat.

I Just turned 33 a week ago for what it’s worth, and weed did a semi-similar thing to me ~10 years ago.
Used to, I smoked weed and would always feel zoned out, giggly, relaxed, etc.
then almost over-night, weed made me nothing but paranoid and anxious. this has persisted ever since with no change. I just can’t smoke weed “for fun” anymore.

just wondering if anyone else out here has had similar experiences where previously go-to recreations just suddenly turned into a “no go”. and if it ever changed/how you combat it?

I want to party with my friends and keep up with them, but lately I just can’t.

The last Coke i snorted made a very clear image,
can still recall the end coming down.

At that point i had become a mental weekend addict.
Using it by myself just 1/2 gram a time max.
It turned, the comedown, wanting to sleep into a deleriant episode.

Real creepy as i was and awake and like in a nightmare like experience.
Which i refer to a delirium, i was not at sleep though trying too.
And experienced a trip into my nostril, through flesh, mucus, blood and organs.

Stopped at that point forever. Opened my eyes sort of,
and the wrong path i was on.

Never experienced that with coke, but what you mentioned about smoking weed happened to me pretty much exactly as you described. I wasn’t a light user, either. I smoked at minimum a quarter a day, but on average it was usually 10 blunts a day at 1-1.5g a blunt and those were just the personal ones, I’d usually smoke at least 1-2 more with some friends or whatever girlfriends I had at the time if they smoked.

But anyway one day I was fine, the next it started giving me anxiety that bordered on the line of full blown panic attacks. I was pretty much always on some sort of cocktail of drugs, and if I wasn’t I was definitely in some sort of withdrawal, so I don’t think I immediately pinpointed smoking to the anxiety I experienced so I just continued to smoke for a few more days before realizing which drug was causing it lol. I tried over and over to smoke again to no avail, time and tolerance breaks only made it worse. It was way too severe to try to continue smoking at all, so eventually I gave up. It really sucked too cause while I love hard drugs far more than weed, I still fuckin loved smoking weed too. I’ve been growing my own plants for ages and nobody buys the shit anymore cause it’s legal and so abundant in such good quality. The stuff I grow isn’t bad by any means, it’s actually damn good but there’s even better bud all over the place for about dirt cheap so to get even friends and family to buy shit off me I have to pretty much give it away, but they all get good deals and most grow their own now too so I can hardly even get rid of it for next to free. So I just throw it vacuum sealed in the freezer and leave a few ozs out for me to look at and play with and sometimes I make edibles it’s sad though, man. I was widely known as the weed guy years ago and whenever I run into somebody I haven’t seen in a long time they always have such a hard time believing I don’t smoke anymore. Weirdly enough they always think it’s because I did some like turn my life around change, but it’s solely because (my theory, anyway) I did too many drugs that it permanently altered my brain chemistry inadvertently making me react badly to weed. Now I just smoke meth instead

I don't think it's that bad that drugs have changed the chemistry in your brain. If that were the case, you wouldn't have written a relatively long thought that is logical and reads well...

This is funny you mention this, I had the same problem smoking crack. After every hit I would puke but fell better afterwards but that nausea kills the fun and the bell ringer.. bur this only lasted a few days and it was back to normal

whoa,
what's crazy is that EXACT thing happened to me with weed about 4-5 years ago!
I wasn't up to a qtr a day, but I was smoking atleast an 8th a day. And literally over-night it just started making me crazy anxious and paranoid.
I still try to smoke before bed, but I can't smoke socially anymore, don't get the "giggles". Just anxiety and then sleep lol.

Thanks for sharing

I was a daily marijuana smoker from the age of 13 then was a full blown alcoholic by 24...quite drinking at 27 (have not had a drink in more than 34 years) but abused coke and then meth (I got the good stuff, ice) until 35. Got heavy into AA and was 100% clean and sober for 21 years. Then I started smoking pot again and simply did not like it. Over the last 5 years I would occasionally do Excstacy once twice a month and dabbled in Benzos, but never developed any problem.

I have been a very modest user of Kratom for several years but only 4 grams a day 4-5 nights a week. I have had Tramadol in my closet for 3 years and only used 50 pills in that time. I got introduced to Oxy and love it, and also fentanyl. Everyone said I would be homeless in 2 months but it has been 2 months and I tracked my use...I use the powerful opioids about once every 5-6 days. People said that on the days I don't use it I would think about it but I never do.

My bestie's friend deals coke and I have had access to that for 3 months. I finally got some and a half gram last me 10 days. Did some one night, stopped, then the rest 9 days later. Back when I was young and abused a half gram would not last the night.

I don't know what has happened, but I don't think I am an addict anymore. I know once you are you are supposedly always...but I just don't abuse drugs anymore. Its crazy, and I am still paranoid. Maybe it was all the psych meds I was put on 12 years ago. I also have been using Zepbound to get ripped again (I am 13% body fat, want to be 11 again). Supposedly Zepbound combats addictions.

I don't know, but I just don't abuse drugs anymore. Of Course this probably means I WILL start abusing them again. One thing is for sure, I still can't drink.

I do read this forum which keeps me scared shitless, especially of opiod addiction.

Weed and psychedelics always made me feel guilty and have anxiety about being addicted to opiates. So I made the most logical decision... Quit all marijuana and phychs.
