🔴 Social Media Addiction: • A Year Without Social ...
im glad to hear someone who went through this too, i went to a group for addicts and they laughed in my face because "marijuana isn't a drug". Weed can cause health issue and it can be super addictive.
It is a drug. So is ibuprofen. 🥴
It's not so much weed that is addictive, but the feeling of ditching reality. And God is that detrimental long term. Anything that separates you from reality that you abuse is worth seeking treatment for.
@@tuesdayriot it doesn't matter what makes it addictive, it can be super addictive.
This was my experience too. People want to stay in denial because “it’s medicine” but it is mind altering therefore it has the potential for abuse, no matter what a pothead wants to spew.
Yes! I'm a weed smoker but I cannot stress enough to people that weed still isn't 100% safe to smoke. U can get CHS and a couple other things from smoking even regularly if ur body isn't responding to it right or it's drenched in chemicals and pesticides. And it still can be an addiction just like anything else can. Yes weed is legal but that DOSE NOT mean it's 100% safe for anybody to consume long term. Yes it does have some health benefits but you have to be smoking the right stuff and doing it correctly under doctor supervision so they can tell u what ur body needs and dosnt. Yes weed is alternatively safer then most other drugs but that still doesn't mean count it out. Weed is a drug and always will be just not a completely damning one.
It's definitely addictive. We as a people need start changing the definition of addiction.
People get addicted to tanning or eating toilet paper or dry wall. At the end of the day, you can become addicted to anything. I think especially when you have mental health issues, THC dependence can be a slippery slope. I had a problem with a lot of things, and especially with my mental health issues, the paranoia that came with being high, really really f'd me up for a really long time. I'm a little over a year sober from all drugs and alcohol. My mind is more clear than it has ever been. Pretty cool that me and what was for a very long time, my favorite creator, got sober at about the same time. Hope things stay well Gabbie.
That doesn't mean there shouldn't be preventative measures taken to highly increase the prevention of addiction
it’s such a display of strength to get sober or cleanse any addiction, you deserve your flowers
No she doesn't
My best friend experienced cannabis induced psychosis followed by severe depression and unfortunately died by suicide. This situation is extremely rare and weed is honestly fine for so many people but for some people their brain chemistry is not compatible with it and it’s okay to acknowledge that. Happy for you that you committed to what you felt was best for yourself.
That happened to me! So scary 😭 Im sorry about your friend 🥺
@@guineapigtalks how are you doing now?
@@Momofukudoodoowindu Im stable and take meds. I was diagnosised with bipolar disorder. I could be better, but at least Im 100% sober now. Psychosis is one of the scariest things and I wouldnt wish it on anyone.
@@guineapigtalks I'm so sorry this happened to you. That is so scary. ☹ I'm glad you have a diagnosis now and have stability moving forward in that.
This happened to my husband. Thankfully we got him help immediately and he’s better now but he still has triggers. It was hard for me to fully understand at first bc it’s never happened to me. I’m a functioning “pothead” it’s a genuine medication for me. Some people can function correctly on cannabis and some can’t. It becomes a crutch when you don’t have the extra resources for yourself to support you where you need it. Or you have an addictive personality and it’s even harder to not rely on it.
I can HEAR the peace in your voice. I feel weird as a stranger saying this, but truly, I'm so proud of you.
I LOVE that she got straight to the point lol so many people ramble on for the first two mins of a video.
Gabbie I’ve smoked every single day for the last 7 years and all the time I convince myself I’m not addicted but then I take a 5 day trip on a plane somewhere and can’t eat or drink at all, completely unwell, and I realize I am absolutely addicted and need it to digest food/for appetite purposes which is insanely wild because I know in my natural state that I don’t require it to eat but I do. It does change your brain chemistry. Quitting scares the crap out of me but this is very inspiring to watch and to see your thoughts and personality coming back out is comforting!! Congratulations 🎉 keep it up!
I quit for my baby but after breastfeeding I started again. I’m definitely still addicted but I’m never couch potato. Stay at home mom life I guess
@@alexisdixon1918 pregnancy is also the only way I see myself convincing myself to quit! I’ve been a full time nanny to an infant in the past but I’m not a mama yet. Whenever I’m with kids I have no desire - so weird. Maybe after they’re asleep 😂
Physical dependency is one of the largest barriers for me too! I feel the same exact way, I never thought I could get addicted to it until I would have to travel to a place that may not have it and would feel so physically ill, I couldn’t eat and it was so hard to sleep!
This was me and then I got pregnant and immediately stopped. It’s so strange that you can easily do it. I would always think “why not?” Before I was pregnant and that was terrible. I feel SO MUCH BETTER. So much more confident and like myself again. I eat with no problem now. Idk if I’ll ever do it again. I say in moderation but idk if I’ll be able to keep it that way. I would highly recommend quitting for a year like this video suggests. You would be surprised how many problems seem to fix themselves
Hey guys, don't forget to preorder of of my new designs
hey gab, check that when you look your website's tab it says "Your site title", also, i think you should check the quality of the pics in the store page, because on pc they look pixelated.
AUDIO BOOKS ! They help my brain be creative while not having to "sit still" in a way. I can stay busy while being busy lol
Omg! Yes! Growing up with severe ADHD, I couldn’t ever sit and read a book. It would make me cry, thinking why can’t I read this damn book?!?! I would find myself reading the same paragraph (no lie) 20 times, for having to start all over each time, as my mind would drift off to somewhere else. I gave up, thinking I’m just a person that can’t read books. Don’t get me wrong, I was very good with grammar ELA. So it wasn’t the context. But when I turned 40 and tried audio books, where I could still move and keep my body busy, it was a life changer. I was so ridiculously proud of myself when I finished my first book (yes, of my entire 40 years.) I highly recommend audio books for people like us who can’t sit still, and can’t read unless their body is in motion.
I was a daily weed smoker since I was 13 I just quit at the beginning of this year. I'm 31 now. It used to be so much apart of my life and I used it to numb my emotions and trauma for so long that I became so dependent on it. Until it started giving me major anxiety. The same thing happened to all my friends. Eventually it started giving them anxiety and they had to quit. I attribute it to a big part of my mental health struggles toward the end. And even then I couldn't quit because I was so addicted. But, I've never been so happy that I was finally able to and my emotions and thoughts have never been more clear. It's not easy though because I really have to sit and process a lot of my past memories and trauma I just wasn't present for that whole time. It's sad. I don't remember most of my life because I was just so numb. I know the memories are there though I just need to practice mindfulness and meditate regularly and I'll be good.
I always swore weed wasn't addictive and I kept having medical issues and swore there was no way it was the weed. I have been sober 4 months now and the difference in my physical and mental health is amazing. I wish I could be someone who could just enjoy a hit every now and then but the last 6 years proved I am not that person. Thank you for sharing your journey.
drugs are so different for different people. I was daily smoker and then volcano vaper and then had to stop cold turkey, literally for me nothing changed. I didnt feel the clear head or whatever. I can go days without it and then do it daily after. So it is very different and i totally support anybody who doesnt feel like its right for them.
Stop for four months and see how you feel. If it's hard to stop for that long you're an addict. If it's easy you'll know you really are fine.@@BenzBabe
You need a podcast. You’re so calming, and I love how I relate to what you’re going through and just listening makes me feel so much better. I love your work gabbie
I wasn't quite fond of you at first but I'm growing to have a great amount of respect for you. I'm happy to see you doing better. Congratulations, on 1 year sober
Same I grew a fondness for her as a person when she started her first move to the house
I never really understood what people's problem was with her?! 🤔
I grew very not fond of her for a while, high key expected to watch this and roll my eyes at her.
But I can very much tell a difference and I'm genuinely happy and proud for her.
I’ve been going through this and I’m trying to get sober now after a million relapses. I’m on day 2, which is kind of a miracle because I couldn’t even get through a whole day before. These new Gabbie videos have some divine timing for me. I quit social media years ago
I'm proud of you :)
You can do this..One day (minute) at a time ❤ I am over 2 years sober which is an absolute miracle for this alcoholic. Keep it simple
You can do this! I'm 65 days free of weed as of today!! You got this 🥳
@ericartmanschili how’s it going
I’m very proud of you. I hate that weed has become a norm. I hate that it’s pushed so hard on us now as if everyone is capable enjoying it. It’s a drug. It’s unnecessary. If you’re trying to escape something, you need to heal. Not get high.
Brava!! I always say the same thing!
I’ve been watching you since I was like… 12 or something (I’m 22 now). I’m so happy to see you’re doing better, and a part of me feels healed as well. I also struggled with weed and alcohol and have quit them (mostly) but this really motivated me to go an entire year. Thank you.
It's so crazy how people will be like "no its not bad for you because I had the exact opposite experience" and not consider that just because something is good for you doesn't mean it's bad for someone else...
Exactly!! People are always like "X isn't aDdIcTivE!" Because its not at the level that heroine is lol like it can't be an issue at all if it's not at that level
@@RCrystal34 That's not what I'm talking about. Marijuana, clinically, hasn't been shown to cause physical dependency. That's literally a fact.
@@milianviolet oh ok I guess I misunderstood then. I have an addictive personality so literally everything does to me so it doesn't matter if it doesn't have a "physical" dependency.
@@RCrystal34 The difference is that emotional dependency to ANYTHING is really a choice your making. Until recently, the clinical term of "addiction" referred to a physical dependency, which is an actual medical condition.
If you're "addicted" to marijuana and you suddenly stop smoking it, then it might affect your mood for a few days. Many people have little to no symptons at all.
If you're addicted to heroin and you suddenly stop, then your body will go into shock and you may literally die. A lot of people, who have actually studied or worked on the field, when we say addiction, we mean the kind that actually kills people. The kind of addiction that causes death during withdrawal.
You're neither going to overdose in marijuan, nor die from physical shock during withdrawal.
Honestly this was my exact experience. Thought I couldn't live without it and my anxiety and depression were only being kept at bay because I was smoking. Turns out it was the opposite, and I've never been happier. A year and a half later I can finally occasionally partake and not instantly feel pulled back into that depressive state. But I am no longer high 24/7 (or probably more like 16/7 but still), and don't feel like I NEED it.
It's not that weed itself is addictive, but it's an addiction to ditching reality. And even when you're ditching reality, you have this underlying anxiety that you're avoiding everything so you can't even relax when you're high. At least that was my experience. Good luck, Gabbie. Proud of you.
I’m so happy to come across this video. It’s been so scary watching you struggle over the years. Girl.. I’ve been praying for you!! PRAYING!! Thank you God
As someone who smokes medically id say there is definitely a difference between addiction and using weed for help. Ive been through both.
When i was addicted, i could smoke an oz within 2 weeks and never feel a high. 6 bowls back to back. 2 blinkers. No high. But i couldn't stop for some reason. Then i realized i also was going about life the same way. Crying a lot between every activity. Then came the laziness and lack of motivation. My tolerance was so high and all i wanted was to feel okay.
Combining weed with therapy though made things simmer out. I came to understand myself better and truly began to only need a smoke when i began to panic or have relentless flashbacks. Otherwise, i lived with my sober self and came to like myself more and become more centered.
Im currently pregnant and tbh, if this happened a yr before i may have not stopped smoking but im proud to say i went cold turkey because i knew i could handle myself and wanted the best for my baby.
I mainly shared my story to say. Im glad i wasnt alone. And i hope we can all heal together and be better.
As someone who works with ppl with addictions, weed is not a harmless drug
There's no such thing as a harmless drug. All drugs can have harmful effects. I have a family member who got liver damage from a single recommended dose of Tylenol, ffs.
I had a Friend go to rehab from weed addiction the tobacco in the blunt is also crazy bad for u
Congrats on getting sober dude! You seem a lot more level headed now(no offense) wish you luck on your journey!
I’m not buying it. Her behavior was way past weed!
@@suzannetaylor6285 I think weed was a large contributor to it, but I do think mental health issues were definitely playing a role in it. I’ve sponsored kids in the past who struggled with addiction, and weed can really take a toll on someone’s mental health.
ive NEVER been this early and now i kinda get why people get so excited when theyre first idk its a flex its cool kinda
Weed can also uncover bipolar disorder/ mania/ psychosis/ schizoeffective disorder etc
Oh, I loved those bathtub rants during fvolgmas!! So relatable, comforting and relaxing content. It was wonderful
I am a budtender in Canada (person who sells marijuana for recreational use). There is like you said, a lot of stigma around smoking weed that is not true. HOWEVER, for some people it really is an addiction and that is something a lot of people lie to themselves about. Thank you for being open about your personal journey on this topic.
I’m also a budtender and I agree! I LOVE weed, but even all the labels state that it is habit forming
Budtender is a really nice way to say drug dealer.
Gabbie, I've followed you since Vine and watched how much weed changed you slowly through the past few years. I cant believe how much different you already are just being a year sober from it. Its almost like the light has returned to your eyes, and that positive motivated soul within you has been reactivated. Its like you literally were rewired. Its refreshing to hear your calming non-manic voice again... Its like I'm reuniting with a friend who I haven't seen in years.
Also want to say, I am battling an addiction to a certain substance and seeing your segment about the guy's thumbnail and feeling "unmotivated" really got through to me. Last night at work my boss told me I never seemed motivated anymore. And he's right, im almost always high on this stuff at work and being lazy. Things were so much different over a year ago; I really do feel like my brain chemistry has changed and i just want to feel that motivation again.
Anyway long story short, your video really got through to me and I'm inspired to change myself because of how much I can see the change in you.
Thank you Gabby and it's great to see your face again. Please keep posting 💜
Some friendly criticism: way too many zoom shots. Proud of you.
thats just how she edits let her live
youre not alone lol. I have a few videos already edited but keeping that in mind for future editing.
Yes! I wanted to say this but I didn't want to sound critical because I love her and the video and I'm so happy for her and didn't want to be a downer. But yeah they were making me dizzy. I don't need any editing really. I just would listen to her talk non stop for a long time about all of this lol
I absolutley LOVE the painting you did behind you!! So so cool!
I was recently diagnosed with Bipolar 1 and part of that diagnosis came because of how poorly and negatively my body and mind reacted to weed and alcohol. Mind alertering substances are not something that was good for my already altered brain chemistry. I left some victims in my wake of discovery and I am so sorry, but I am slowly getting stronger and healthier. 1.5 years sober from all the things.
Proud of you! Sobriety is hard as balls. Im four years sober from drugs and alcohol myself- it ain’t easy work thats for damn sure. So give yourself congrats whenever you have the chance 💜 also I have been streaming rewired since it came out. That song is the banger of bangers
Congratulations on your 4 years! ❤
you’ve gained a new follower!
it makes me quiet emotional watching this to have someone put into words the things you cannot or simply relate in a way that you think no one else would.
I’m so lonely, truly. my heart hurts but I hear you and see you. or at least what you let us for the most part.
I’m only 21, I have a 18 month old daughter. idk I’m just talking now but one thing for certain, God is here. God is with me and you, and you and you. God please save my soul. Touch me, show anything.
I’m listening to your music right now by the way.. beautiful. truly if you understand the lyrics it’s a different type of power to your music and the musical aspect???! so good.
This is a total random sidebar-
Your song “Rewired” got me through one of the most hellacious times in my life. I mean truly brink of death dealing with mold, heavy metal illness and akathisia.
That song gave me courage to go do cold swims at beach which would numb my nerves enough to keep fighting. It focused me when my level one million ocd was running my life.
Thank you. 🌌
God bless wishing you well
I quit drinking for the whole year 2023. I made that decision not because I wasn't drinking everyday or that I thought I was an alcoholic but because I realized I was an enabler. My son's father and my Best friend drank heavily. I was her go to for girls night. I always brought a bottle to hang out with her. We always polished it off and got another one. I brought home beer for my man daily. And even though I didn't drink everyday, when I did drink I was getting absolutely wasted. And it was the only way I was having fun. I realized it was a problem when my best friends 14 year daughter asked me to stop bringing alcohol when I come visit and that her mom's drunk every day and its embarrassing for her.
When I stopped drinking she stopped inviting me over as much. I told her it was my new year's resolution and that it wasn't about her, but the decision was made based on how much I enabled her and others in their drinking and at the same time my son's father quit drinking because he was realizing he was an alcoholic. He was spiking his coffee before work and getting smashed everyday and passing out dramatically. After one year of not drinking I had a cocktail that I normally love and I couldn't finish it. My stomach churned trying to drink it. I completely lost my desire to drink alcohol.
This is the inspiration I needed. When I first started smoking, it used to be all fun and actually helped ease my severe social anxiety. At some point that shifted to the opposite, I get very in my head and have a lot of flashbacks. It started to work great for journaling and meditation on the issues that caused my PTSD, but it puts me in a negative headspace if I try to just watch stuff, hang out, or do stuff around the house. Not to mention it just sucks all the motivation out of my body. No more bendable boundaries around how many times a week and what time, it’s time for a year break. Thanks for this 🙏
been loving this new era fr
I don’t really know about your content from before but congrats on the sobriety journey. I just got 18 months sober from alcohol today! I always appreciate hearing another fellow young persons journey back to God and processing the stages of addiction 😊 good luck!
This is the best notification I've received in sooooo long !!!!
I love you girl 🩷
Gabbie, i also am a super paranoid smoker. and it’s always a gamble when i take a hit. i don’t know if i’m going to be in the best mood, or extremely hyper vigilant! My heart would beat and i’d think it’s foot steps, the abc would turn on and i’d think it’s someone living upstairs that just turned the fan on. i also have so many delusions from smoking. thinking who i’m around and read my thoughts, and i realize i’m having conversations with them in my head. It also makes being bored- fun. The hardest part of quitting is the boredom, for me at least. but the clarity of mind when you’re sober is truly something else!You become you again! I’m very proud of you Gabbie, i will never stop watching you. We are so alike and it’s like watching my twin. Love ya!
A spiritual teacher I follow once said that a medicine or drug when you take it, it's just your body coming into vibration with that drug. If the drug has a higher vibration than that of your current self, then you will feel positive effects from it. If you yourself have a higher vibration than the drug, then you will feel negative effects such as anxiety or paranoia. So looking back it actually makes since that it started giving me anxiety soon after the year 2012 because that's when I (and a lot of us) went through a spiritual awakening.
Jesus can bring peace joy and love unlike no other. Not temporary feelings the world offers.
I love you, and I love myself. I'm still struggling with my addiction to weed. I'm so glad you're winning!! 💖
You are loved. You are valuable. You are crafted with beauty and purpose. I treasure you and this world needs you. There is no one like you. You don’t need to look like the rest, or talk like the rest, or be like the rest. There is no truth in the lie that you don’t matter. The world needs you as you are. You are loved and you were put here for a reason. You were not an accident. You are not a mistake
People who smoke cannabis with underlying mental conditions usually intensifies their condition, especially anxiety
I smoked everyday from 18-23. I quit and then literally went into psychosis for an entire month. I was convinced I had major health issues and lost 12 pounds in one month. So scary.
I went thru a time period taking steroids, eating very strictly, working out 2x a day, and smoking weed. I ended up in a psychosis and losing my absolute mind, hospitalized in a mental hospital for 2 weeks. I got saved in the mental hospital.
God bless you sister.
Man……I’m not going to lie this time last year I thought SO NEGATIVELY of you. Truly. I thought that was going to be the end. The Amanda Bynes moment for you. This really warms me. Proud of you. ❤️ Congrats!
Thank you so much posting this, I smoked for 13 years finally quit in 2020. My medical problms gone along with my anxiety, My addiction was so bad my husband almost left me, I dont remember my wedding, i lived in a fog just to have a little confidence. Im so proud of you & thank you for sharing your story ❤
Tolerance breaks are a must if your a stoner I think tbh
💯
V much so
When people justify to themselves that they *need* to stop a drug for a short time because they are getting a high tolerance, that is just sad. Addiction is real for every mind altering substance lol
Yo, I get where you’re coming from but the same tolerance break should be done for those who drink alcohol too; which is Totally legal…. There are a lot of things that can be considered addictions, as well, not just substance use.
@@That_1_Chiq if you don’t take tolerence breaks you will stop getting high eventually lol
I swear this video must be fate! I’d been waiting for you to come back for so long now! And you come back with a video talking about my exact internal struggle for the past year! This is a sign for me to finally quit! Thank you! ❤
I am really proud of you. I was SUPER worried and seeing this makes me really happy for you. I've been sober for 400 days... it's the best I have felt in my entire life.
Oh Gabbie, every time I hear you share about this I can’t help but smile. Im also 1.5 years sober, and fully intoxicated by the Holy Spirit alone 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼😂💕 and I plan to never smoke weed or drink again. Be sober minded 1 Peter 5:8-9
Hey gabbie, I’m so happy you’re finally uploading! I missed watching your videos. Congrats on being over a year sober !!! 🎉❤️
This made me tear up. I remember promising that I’d never smoke bc too many ppl in my family have died due to smoking. I remember smoking the special lettuce once when I was pretty wasted and I uncovered so much trauma from 20 years ago that I didn’t even know I was holding onto. I had friends who would smoke or do ac!d to dive into their shadow and become their own therapist and I saw benefits first hand. It’s always been something I wondered about, and I’m so glad you made this video about how it became your coping mechanism and how you grew from it.
These recent videos reminded me of the vulnerable, yet empowered girl I fell in love with years ago on UA-cam. Much love ❤
I’m so glad you found the love of God. There’s such a difference in you. Nothing can bring peace to your spirit like Jesus can. ❤
Congratulations. I've never smoked anything a day in my life (dont really drink either), but I heard quitting is one of the hardest things to do. I'm so happy for you and glad you're back.
I am a recovering addict. I understood every word in this video.
I also believe we had to go thru that time to get sober and to enjoy life from a new perspective
Gabby no wayyyyy your now a sister in Christ I’m so happy for you dude let’s goooo🥹🥹🥹🥳🥳🥳🥳✝️
I am almost 7 years sober from alcohol and I can say that I didn’t really get to know my true self until I got sober. I started drinking at 16 (35 now) and I am still working through a lot of issues I buried deep with my drinking, but my mind is so much clearer now and I don’t have that crutch to lean on. I still have family and friends who drink and I just choose not to for myself ❤ I am a better mom and person now that I am sober.
Congratulations on one year sober 🎉
incredibly similar to my experience! Im a year sober from it in May. Its very nice being in a comment section where people are like, listening and hearing. Usually when i talk about it people are like "its no addictive youre lying you just have no self control" as if all doctors and scientists and professionals wouldnt agree its very real
Im going through it rn the smoking in the morning and staying high all day . Been smoking weed everyday since i was 16 im 21. Im so addicted .
But I'm scared to stop it's literally gonna be a whole new life
@@emilyrubyg5188 what if your new life is better than this one
@@TheGabbieShow I loved you since vine. I have ur adultolesance monster holding flowers behind his back TATTOOD double sided on my calf
@@TheGabbieShow it will be and I will quit its just so hard and scary
im so happy you finally found yourself, it was so hard watching you spiral the last few years, and im happy youve found peace
Pot addiction is real. Been there, done that. 9 years i was in a straight haze. No, withdrawals dont compare to other drugs, but the dependence does.
Congratulations.
I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your spirit is glowing and you look so full of life. You’re radiating such a serene energy 😭 I have been a long time fan but stepped away during your previous era and this is my first time back and I’m so proud of you it makes my eyes water!
I was sooooo dependent on weed for years. I cut back and switched to CBD 3 years ago when i moved in with a non-smoking roommate. Then quit entirely about a year ago when i found out i was pregnant! I can not see myself ever picking it up again! I hated how it nade me feel (paranoid, conflicted, isolated) and woild actually hate to feel that ever again! Some people swear by it but it was just a huge crutch and addiction for me. You seem very well, and should be proud of yourself for such a huge accomplishment!
Gabbie, I want to hear your testimony of leaving the new age and entering into the faith when God puts it on your heart to share it and when you have the discernment that you understand it enough to witness. I am so joyous. I have a similar testimony as you do, this happened to me in 2020.
I love, love, love this! As an alcoholic in recovery who abstains from all drugs I really can relate and connect to this. Especially the part about thinking weed is spiritual. I found in recovery that anytime I would smoke my connection with my higher power was severed and as someone who depends on that power for my sobriety that quite frankly was terrifying. It did however help me come to the epiphany that all addiction limits our connection with the spirit of the universe and this spiritually bankrupts us. Love the new content. Happy you're back but please take care of yourself too. ❤
I just decided to go completely sober and stop weed at the beginning of this month. I am someone with PTSD who used weed daily- almost all day.
I am SO glad I watch this video of yours. It's only strengthened my confidence in my decision!
Please don't stop talking about this! 🙏🏻
I definitely needed to hear all of this, so thank you! You are super strong, and I am proud of you! 💜
I definitely think that you can be addicted to anything, like food or alcohol (something WAY WAY WAY worse than weed, yet never reprimanded in the way weed is when it’s helping so many with pain, illness etc) but I do think that it’s important to understand that there is a self responsibility required when we open up to these mentally altering substances. I used to vape all the time, and I think that because of how the vapes are set up, it can be really easy to get into the habit of puffing every single minute. When I was doing that, I swear it made me actually stupid. And yes,my mental health was in the absolute gutter. I was making poor choices. I was an alcoholic and frankly I was a chaotic mess because of the trauma I carried. While I may not have understood then why it was so easy to get “addicted” to the vape and other things, I still look back and know that making those choices were my responsibility, not the substances. When I started taking edibles every weekend living in a legal state, it helped me connect to a more spiritual side of life, and I actually found a lot of self connection and healing through looking through that energetic mirror and being faced with truth BECAUSE I was taking accountability for my own choices. I know a lot of people are saying “weed made me blank” but tbh, no it didn’t. You just abused it….
I will say a lot of people vilify pharmaceutical products as well. Even more so than weed nowadays. I know people that literally spend their entire paychecks on weed, from the time they wake up to the time they go to bed, they're high. Even waking up in the middle of the night, they smoke. Almost none of these people admit they have a problem because it's not pharmaceutical drugs.
I smoked weed all day everyday since I was 17. For some reason once I hit 28 it started causing me severe paranoia and anxiety. I will have 2 years clean this June! 💙🫶🏻 So proud of you Gabbie
Gabbie you are absolutely GLOWING!! The vibrancy and energy you radiate now is so positive and uplifting. This video came at just the right time, thank you ❤
The things you said about black people and trans people wasn’t “weird”, it was downright mean. I don’t see you ever addressing that though and all of you seem to have forgotten about that….
Welcome back Gabbie! You seem so much happier. I hope things go well for you. I love your music and art. I’m excited to see what you release next. I’d love to hear how you’re managing your relationship with social media now. Keep on keeping on ❤❤
(Before anyone reads this, just know this is just MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE and this is not true for everyone JUST FOR ME. Okay😂)
I started smoking around 6 years ago, and it helped me get off of bad drugs and got me to eat bc I was anorexic and just helped me get out of a bad place mentally.
I also can’t remember what I was just talking about in the middle of a conversation, even when I’m sober at times, I’m coughing like an old lady smoker and I get absolutely nothing done during the day.
Weed can help a lot, but you gotta have limits so it doesn’t go into the addictive territory, which is where I am now. I’m trying to quit, I’ve definitely slowed it down a lot but there are those moments during the day where I’m just so upset and need clarity, so I smoke. But now instead of clarity, I just feel numb. Sure I’m giggly and talking about who knows what, but I’m blocking out the real emotions I’m feeling and maybe it was fine when I was younger, but I’m older now and I have to do something with my life. I personally cannot get anything done when I smoke the majority of the time.
Anyone with a medical marijuana card knows that anyone with ANY sort of mania/bipolar disorder shouldn't smoke weed. It increases all the disorders. so yes, it made you more manic.
You can get addicted to anything and all addictions should be taken seriously. So proud of you for recovering
I’m SO PROUD of you Gabbie!! You look amazing girl and I’m glad you are doing much better ❤️❤️
Once again begging to minimize the zooms. Please Gabbie it is so disorienting 😫 Otherwise another great video. Very proud of you for your recovery. Always knew you had it in you to get better, you're an inspiration to those of us struggling.
I don’t normally comment but I’m very glad she was able to not only realize what was going on but also strong enough to pull herself out of it. It’s rare people are able to do this . I’ve lost a few friends to depression and drugs . I 100% thought she was going down this path . Thanks for sharing ur story gabby
gabbie it warms my heart so much to have you back and see how much you have grown to say i stuck through it all until you completely stopped posting and seeing you back and so much better is so heart warming thank you for coming back
gabbie, im SO happy for you! ive watched you for years and to see you finally come to christ is just such a blessing! beyond proud of you and glory to God! have you ever thought of making christian/worship/gospel music ever??
Want to say a very big congrats on being a year sober. That is such a big acomplishment. God bless you Gabbie ❤❤❤
Gabbie, I’ve been a silent subscriber since the VINE days. I grew up with you. I’m happy to see you back, and healthy and happy. Looking forward to this next chapter for you 😊🎉
Are you gonna upload the videos you showed some scenes? You during the moving? 😄
I started getting into Cannabis and THC last year and couldn’t agree more with all of this. It did open a pandora’s box though to all of my mental struggles, but even a few months in I now I feel like I’m myself again and like you it has been mostly because of God.
Being a pothead and not enjoying it is wild 😅 sis what was the point? The momentary mental clarity is nice if you have self control but if you don't...
DO NOT STOP SHARING ✨😭🕊️
Please don’t !!!
You have support - I feel very connected to you 💛🫶🏼
You got this soul sister
I know why I’ve always gotten so mad if anyone has called Gabbie Hanna crazy: she’s just like meeee frrrr😭
Congratulations Gabbie! So so proud of you taking this step to better yourself! You look absolutely stunning and happy💕
One day when you are truly healed you will be able to smoke on occasion when you are in physical pain or just have been stressed for weeks and finally need a day to relaxxx.
That’s what I do now, I get high like once every couple months if I’m in pain or have been stressed for a minute. But I was also sober from weed for years before I started again. Just gotta give yourself time to actually heal and go to therapy.
I can't with the zooming in and out in this video. 😢
The issue with modern cannabis is that it is not natural. The mainstream "weed" is chemical latent and most seed is GMO. If you choose to use cannabis opt for Non-GMO and organic. Which means that you will have to grow your own healthy medicine or get to know your organic weed farmer. Cannabis is the proper treatment for PTSD and trauma; however, it must be organic non-gmo.
OH MY GAWD I feel so seen!!! People sometimes look at me like I’m crazy when I try to explain how weed has affected me. I quit 2 days ago. This time I hope I can hold off for good. Every single time I quit I DO get more motivated and grounded and happy, and less… weird.
The problem is that the weed we have now is not the weed our parents and grandparents grew up with. It's so much more addicting and so much more powerful to get people hooked quicker. I just want something that will relax me so I can melt into the couch and free my mind( no thoughts head empty type of vibe) bc of anxiety/ocd. Instead, if I'm not careful, I get thrown into a panic attack. Can't believe I miss it when it was more illegal LOL it's definitely not for everyone and shouldn't be pushed as something that doesn't have addictive properties. It's a drug of course it can be addicting. Glad you found what was best for you.
you’re truly glowing. I missed your laugh so much😭❤️
I’m amazed and proud to see this change. It takes a lot of dedication and self determination to decide something like this and stick to it. Good on you Gabbie. My heart has always had a soft spot for you. It’s always rooted for your healing. I’m glad you feel better and more secure about your life. You deserve it.
So happy that you found a relationship with God, Gabby ❤
I relate to the spiritual weed debate and your inner monologue so hard, thank you for talking about this 💚 I know I need to stop, I’m that two week wonder lol I need a yearrrrrr
I don't know if you'll see this comment... but I remember watching your videos back from old gabbie show era. And then you changed a lot and I really didn't like the content anymore. It was hard to watch, and I felt sad to see you become someone I didn't connect with. But you just randomly popped back up on my feed, and I can't say how awesome it is to see you are clearly very calm, peaceful and absolutely glowing. You've never looked more healthy and sure of yourself. I'm very happy for you. And as a former west coast pothead to the east coast non-smoker, it's crazy to see another girl the same age as me throw away the weed and feel the comfort of our Lord. So happy you're doing well. You were one of the few youtubers who had real, relatable depth... it just got lost for a while. But you found yourself again, through God. Welcome back!
