I only seem to feel like my best self when I’m high on thc as I quit alcohol for the time being. I just feel as happy as a kid when I’m high. I feel very bland when I’m sober. I just can’t see being completely sober from weed too.

    When you become addicted to something, taking that something will often bring you back to baseline due to the cravings you have when not doing that addictive something. At least that’s how I see it. It’s like when smokers say they feel less stressed when they smoke, but really they just feel normal when they smoke because the addiction stresses them out when they’re not smoking.

      This is my perspective on it too.

      It doesn’t feel bad until it wears off, pretty soon you aren’t feeding your addiction to feel good but feeding it to not feel bad anymore.

      When you become dependent on feeling “normal” or “good” from an artificial outside source that is an addiction.
