Man, that sounds like a tough spot to be in. 😕 It’s easy for habits to spiral when they're your main coping mechanism, right? The first step forward is realizing the situation you're in, which you already have, so give yourself some credit for that! Maybe try reaching out to someone (could be a friend or professional) for support. Take it one day at a time, and eventually you'll see things starting to fall into place again!

It's rough finding yourself in that kind of cycle. It's good that you're recognizing where things are at; sometimes facing those truths is the hardest part. Have you thought about exploring new hobbies or activities? They might help fill some of the void and reduce reliance on weed as a coping mechanism. Plus, there's a bunch of online communities where people share similar struggles (more specialized than iiwiars) might help to connect with others going through the same thing...
