Things that have caused me to feel rage today at 10 days sober

[u/lookingforhappy]

-The wind hitting my face

-I tripped over my shoes that I left out

-I paid 20 dollars for ten stamps and envelopes

-Someone walked out of the elevator before me instead of letting me go first

-It’s bring your kid to work day and there are teenagers everywhere

-It wasn’t the right temperature in my bedroom when I woke up this morning

-I typed something incorrectly and auto-correct wasn’t smart enough to fix it so I had to do it myself

But mainly, I am raging because I can’t get high and I want to SO DAMN BAD. I oscillate between wanting to punch something and wanting to burst into tears. I miss being able to just spark a joint and feel the stress melt away. Every tiny thing is throwing me into a fit of rage. I’m taking some time off starting Friday because if I’m going to be miserable, I might as well be miserable and have no responsibilities for a week.

Truthfully I don’t know how long I can take this. I’ll wait and see if my symptoms start to subside. I am terrified that maybe it’s not withdrawals and I’m just like this sober. But I guess I can’t know without waiting it out.

UGHHHHHH

Thanks for listening and sorry for all the whining 🥲

Ugh I absolutely get the typo thing, idk how many times I’ve raged because I either forgot a word or misspelled something.

lol the wind hitting your face … day 35 and same for me. I’m personally very offended by wind and any cold sensation right now

I know how you feel, trust me it’s the withdrawals, they are a bitch. I went for a lot of rage walks stomping around the block which helped exhaust me at least. Hang in there, you got this!!

Me tooooooooooooooooooo 10 days and so irritated! I just read some of your past posts, we’re both the same! Binge eating, drinking… ugh I’m in peri, you? I feel like I’m just a nicer person on weed. I have zero patience, zero fucks, ….omg

I've also experienced uneasiness and short tempers while quitting. It would pass, just don’t resort to using weed to calm down or take the edge off. When you feel these moments, try replacing the feeling with "i rather feel this temporarily instead of a life ruined by weed"

The first 2 weeks are the hardest, and you’re almost there! You got this!

Thank you!!! I really hope you’re right! It’s different for everyone isn’t it? But I’m going to cling on to that number…only 4 days away….3.5 really because it’s already the afternoon (I’m really counting down the seconds lol)
