I’m “differently happy” when I’m smoking, without it I just have more “empty moments” that need to be filled with engaging activities and social interactions else I’m restless. If you haven’t tried going on a weed break, I highly recommend it. If anything, do it just to show you you can live without it. Again, it’s gonna be really difficult if you’re experiencing loneliness, IME the one thing that truly helped me battle the boredom was other people so maybe use that as motivation to engage more with your friends and family?

Alcohol doesn’t do anything for me and I haven’t drunk in ages.
