Quitting Alcohol

[TheDoublR]

a lot of people have been able to kick the booze with those farm bill approved, federally legal cbd/thc products.

Skip all the calories of those NA beers and you don’t need to look like a dork buying them.

Farm bill is officially dead 11/12/2026.

My wife is the same way , and she has glaucoma, they wanted her to try weed to relieve pressure.
She couldn’t do it , passed every time, poof !

A more recent research study has shown that it only works for a few hours so you'd have to smoke/ingest weed 6-8 times a day for it to be a viable solution.

Why would you do that unless you were an all day drinker type?

Again, if you just trade one thing for another, you'll have the same problems. Maybe learn to use things as a tool not a substitute.

Obviously, but I was talking to the guy who said you’d have to get high every 2 hours all day long.

Last year I went in for some blood work and my sugar levels came back high. Had to work on cutting back on carbs so I decided to quit drinking for a month and see how that went. Well, it’s been over a year. Felt so good after that month I never went back.

It’s been hard at times. When stress comes on, it’s really hard not to want to have a drink or two.

Yes I agree. I was just pointing out the limited efficacy of marijuana for glaucoma. I had just read about that recently and thought it interesting. I think most people don't know that.

Ahh I get you. I guess in my mind, I was thinking about if somebody was to struggle quitting alcohol and if they decided to legally use a thc product to help them, they could take it in the evening, maybe again before bed.

Obviously getting high all day would come with its own set of consequences.

That was definitely a problem for me at times.

I thought if you didn't drink til you passed out, what was the point in drinking at all.

Idk why but felt compelled to post. Holidays were tough for me; if you’re feeling pressure or stress over next few days and need someone to vent or talk through it PLEASE reach out. You’re worth it.

So great to see the community that this thread has brought together. Thanks again OP for the courage to start it.

Holidays aren't as merry without kids around.
Likely why I have so many "borrowed hunting midgets" . Holiday deer slaying is better than presents.
