    I decided to take the month of November off from cannabis consumption of any kind due to some life stressors and ongoing mental health problems that weed has exacerbated. It's been going very well so far, but unfortunately a friend of mine who was supposed to be my sober buddy cracked on day 2 (it happens).

    Is anyone else taking a temporary break from weed? If so, we could have a friendly and nonjudgemental sobriety support thread here for the month of November. Feel free to post goals, encouragement, cute cat pics, etc.

    Not currently on one, but I do take 40 day cannabis break once a year. Usually mid January thru February (the winter blah season), and another shorter a one in the summer during peak heat and humidity season.

    I think a sobriety support thread is an excellent idea. Cat pics aren’t my thing though :confused2:

    Starting to wean off for a 40 day THC break this week. My canna receptors need their yearly vacation :sunglasses:

    It's a great idea to clean out the cobwebs once in a while!

    I plan a weed break starting February 15th or so, perhaps lasting 40 days... time will tell and then I will let you know how it went...

    Meanwhile, anyone want a bong hit?

    Do you wean off? Or go Cold Turkey?

    Cold turkey seems best!

    I wean down with edibles for at least 5 days. My attempts at cold turkey have been more stressful than not.

    I would go for that and make some edibles or extract. Congratulations on 7 days! Bet your lungs feel better :)

    Halfway point. 20 days. Lungs are happy.
    Dispensary has Big Game weekend sale… same $45 for 2 oz deal. I’ll make some cannabutter for future use, or sell it.

    I'm currently on a self-imposed hiatus. If I don't take routine breaks, I build up too much of a tolerance and stop getting a good high. I'll stop for the next three weeks as I ramp up for Pride Week celebrations in June.

    Nothing like being high as a cloud and watching a gaggle of drag queens proudly march by

    I am a very light user, but found consistency gave me hard head.
    So, because I am also frugal to cheap, I’m taking the weekends off so my nightly 10 mg will work to sleep.

    which reminds me I need to order LC!

    I'm just vaping some Maui wowie and OG these days. No buds.

    As of right now I decided to take a break from it for awhile. I just felt kinda lazy and didn't feel completely motivated.

    So this is my break for now. This is something I definitely needed to do. I'm focusing on my healing journey right now.
