I love smoking a j with summer sunsets on the west coast. but it started becoming a daily chore rather than something I enjoyed doing (another cycle…) this time around, I set goals and met them. having 2 set days to smoke for social affairs lets me enjoy the high without becoming the high. Being bored and doing the dishes is def a learning curve, but I’m really proud of how I’ve been moving through this!

By just having some time to myself to smoke a j alone and vibe in my room. Have not done this in years, didn’t smoke for a while either (classic reasons, anxiety etc) but it’s been fun to see myself as more grown up since I last did this. kind of feels like convening with a past self and being like - yes life is weird but that means that anything goes and that’s great, I’m having fun šŸ«¶šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

Me and miss mary jane go way back, a solid decade atp, and it’s crazy to think how different my relationship with her is now. I actually just got a memory notification from the time I was pretty physically dependent on her. I for sure used weed as a crutch through some really tough periods of grief and trauma in my late teens and early twenties. I didn’t plan it this way, but when I quit nicotine last year I also kinda quit weed. I refused to let dependency form again when quitting nicotine as I had previously struggled to fall asleep without weed. So when I cut nic, I cut all inhalants. And haven’t really picked them back up again with the exception of a literal handful of joint hits in the last 10 months. Another big part of that for me was how well I could breathe again. I don't think I was nearly both as active and at rest as I am now that I don’t really partake as much anymore. I recently took an edible with a friend and just felt anxious. Safe to say I think that chapter of my life is closing, not that it was a bad chapter, just a different one. I’ve replaced my old habits with new ones, I’ve been quad skating a lot more, creating more, reading more. Things I never felt motivated to do when I was high all the time. Things that do take the edge off of life and stress in a new way that feels more gratifying for me than weed ever did.

I used to have a lot of shame around smoking, and have had controlling boyfriends in the past who wouldn’t let me do it lmao, so that definitely tainted my relationship with it for many years. I took about a ten (10!) year break from it from my teens to late 20s, and I started back up again casually a few years ago and now I love it. I do have to be careful I’m not using it as a crutch, and if I ever feel like I am getting carried away, I take a T break. I feel grateful my mind and body have a positive response to it for the most part, as long as I keep to my limits and listen to how I am feeling. I also had a pretty invasive surgery a couple years ago and it really helped with my healing, because I really wanted to stay away from the prescription painkillers. It has helped me process a lot of internalized feelings, and it helps me connect with myself creatively and makes mundane tasks like cleaning feel like a powerful ritual! All that said, I am mostly a loner stoner, and enjoy getting stƶned alone or with very close friends that I know I can be myself around.

I got my nails done and I realized the star on the index finger makes the nails PI themed. Semi unconscious yet a soft-smile realization while the nail tech was painting the star on.

Bring back being genuine about your suffering on the internet. was that ever really a thing? is tumblr just a social anecdote to a form of media we thought / wished we had? *^ little miss avoidant. or maybe indirect? dw folks it was amicable! he has a heart of gold! which makes me even more miserable… #gointhruthemotions #humanbeingbehaviour
