“When you can feel it all, you can have it all.”
Today, I’m celebrating one year in recovery from cannabis 🎉
I feel pride, gratitude, awe, love, humility and freedom. I celebrate this to reinforce my devotion to the grit it takes to be sober and thereby open to truly FEELING life in a very un-sober and dissociating world.
A year into active recovery is not long at all AND it’s super freaking long. If you know, you know…
I write this here to you dear reader, as representation of a perspective I don’t see enough (while we all have such diverse relationships to a substance like pot), this is to acknowledge that for some people, like me:
cannabis is indeed highly addictive
cannabis addiction is painful and deeply disconnecting
a casual, independent (vs co-dependent) relationship to cannabis has been proven to be impossible (and I rarely use this word)
