420? I’m 4 months MJ free

I quit because:
- Easy dopamine hits made me content with mediocrity
- Mediocrity made it easy to stay home and avoid challenges / improvement
- Avoiding improvement led to decay, which led to anxiety, depression, and self isolation
I smoked on and off for the last 15 years (since age 13), it would always become more frequent until I was smoking a few times per day. I’d smoke a lot too and get really blasted, even before and during situations where I didn’t particularly want to be stoned.
I was smoking around 3-4g per day before I last quit.

Quitting was hard for me. I experienced severe stomach issues which I found was due to cannabinoids helping with digestion (suddenly, no new supply), random anxiety attacks, and general emotional volatility.
I also had bad social anxiety when quitting. It was more frustration and annoyance than the fearful type of anxiety, I remember leaving a shopping cart full of stuff in line and leaving the grocery store because the woman in front of me was taking ages to count out exact change
I feel normal now, it took around 3 weeks to fade, but most issues were gone within the first 2 weeks.

After quitting my perspective has changed to view MJ as a very immature and childish thing to do. When I see friends who are potheads their behavior seems so strange to me now
