I quit cigarettes, alcohol, and marijuana. Yay mood swings and anxiety! (Don’t worry, I know it’s for the best)
I mean, if you’re feeling worse – is it really for the best?
Voluntary suffering in order to bring about future positive ends is essentially integral to having a good life. That’s like saying to someone who just started exercising and is complaining about being sore, “if you’re feeling worse, is it really for the best?” Yes. It definitively is.
Cigarettes no problem really, but the other stuff was seriously detrimental to my concentration abilities at work.
Maybe you can get some medicine approved form that helps your anxiety without the negative side effects.
Those come with other side effects
Worst thing about alcohol imo is that I can never do anything really productive. Like a beer or two and instead of idk, reading or making something or programming I’ll just be doing nothing. Takes my focus right out
