    I smoked weed and went progressively harder for the last few years.I really enjoyed it a lot: my joints felt better, sleep was easier, I found more joy in movies, TV shows, music, food, and sex. Exercise was easier and I lost weight.

    Starting last fall I noticed my memory was getting bad, and at times my mind woukd just shut down. So at first I cut back, then stopped it entirely. Been completely off for 3 months nkw, which should be more than enough time for all the THC to be out of my system and my canmabanoid receptors to be reset. I never used it until my 30’s so there should.be pretty much no risk of long-term issues.

    Since then, I’m proud to report that those same problems just got even worse AND I’ve lost all of the benefits! Yay!

      Sounds like it’s time to start using again haha

      I’ve used medical marijuana for close to 20 years now for an autoimmune disease. Yeah maybe I’m a little more forgetful, but hot damn! Being able to get out of bed and function is worth it.
