story of my life.....I'll start it tommorow...
I think the best thing to try is swimming. I know you said your arm is busted so I'm not sure how well you can swim. If you can though, just find a local pool and tread water for 2-3 hours. I'm in no athletic shape at all, and I easily tread water for 4+ hours... I just get bored.
It doesn't give your body the same harsh feeling of having just lifted weights or running. It makes my body feel like jello and almost as if I took a vicodin, and you will be knocked out within 60 seconds of putting your head down.
It's the best "work out" for just making yourself feel good. This is how it is for me anyways.
interesting thanks for the info.Try eating Lecithin, Alpha GPC or some other source of choline which may reduce headaches and provide you with a clearer mind, additionally cannabis use depletes acetylcholine so its good to replenish those levels from time to time. When I stop smoking my anxiety goes through the roof, but running and keeping busy at all times helps a lot. Its a good idea to taper off slowly (like from 5 joints narrow it down to 1 joint per day throughout a week time).
Thats the only way to take my mind off it.....hit the nail on the head.ive had to quit on several occasions, the best method for me is to stay extra busy alll day and evening, and be so tired that 5 min in bed and im out. when you dont sit there and think, "damn id like to be high right now" because your out doing something, its alot easier
i just ended a 2 week tolerance break yesterday after smoking at least an 8th of top shelf/hash etc a day for several years. i can say i experienced no withdrawal besides some very nasty rebound insomnia. my friends tell a different story. for the first 4 days of my break people kept asking me if i was ok because i was talking REALLY fast and getting overexcited about things. textbook mania (i never noticed it myself) and very out of character for me. when the 2 weeks were up i noticed that i had lost 7 pounds. was i withdrawing? maybe, but if that's as bad as it gets it's a pretty good deal.
also, i found what i consider to be a magic cocktail to get some sleep. benadryl, wait an hour, then 2 mg of melatonin. basically i blacked out. i was doing some research and found that histamine is a chemical in your brain that "promotes wakefulness". hence an anti-histamine "turns off the wakefulness" (but on it's own is no match for real insomnia). melatonin is a chemical in your brain that "promotes sleepiness" but is also not going to combat hardcore insomnia by itself. so i hypothisised that turning off the wakefulness and then turning on the sleepiness (in that order) would be a good idea, and i was right (i think). melatonin has a short half-life so there is a possibility that you will wake up again in a few hours (i did the first night), but it's better than no sleep at all, and the following night i slept fine. also the benadryl can make you groggy the next day if you didn't get enough rest, but this cocktail saved my ass. figured it was relevant. if someone can tell me why i should NOT take this combo i'm all ears, but it seems pretty safe.
but generally, my withdrawal symptoms include insomnia, social awkwardness, loss of confidence, irritability and general ickyness, but hey, look at the good side, if you start toking again after about a week, any weed works better
