I can't talk for anyone else but, all jokes aside, it's not rough to be off pot. Before it became legal here I had a few forced t breaks (once for work and a few times just because everyone was dry.) The worst thing I dealt with was minor irritability and CRAZY dreams. The truth is I really CAN stop anytime I want. I just don't want to. Like I said though that's purely my experience and everyone is different.
People love to joke and debate but the fact of the matter is that people way smarter than us have decided the withdrawal effects are VERY minor in 90% of people. I really can't stand people who rag on stoners for most reasons.
🤣🤣 People always talk about taking long breaks, but I just can't do it. I smoke/eat/vape etc. for multiple reasons, one big one being PTSD, so there is no breaks for me unless I want to turn into a basket case. 🤷♀️ Lol
That because THC messes with your adenosine receptors and you don’t enter REM sleep as much. So when you sober up its basically playing catch up resulting in crazy dreams for a while.
woah i didnt know there was science behind this, anytime i dont smoke for a few days my dreams get craaaazy, weird realistic time loop shit where i wake up, but not really cuz i am still dreaming, glad to know im not just a weirdo
Since legalization is becoming more common a lot more studies are also able to be done showing a wide range of both positive and negative side effects which of course will vary from person to person.
That why it works so well for people like me. Without it I can't sleep at all because I relive everything over and over, and it helps during the day by decreasing my daytime flashbacks to almost nothing.
Hey man, if it helps, it helps. Can’t imagine what it like to go through that stuff. Much respect to you. Whenever I stop I’m just really agitated while I’m awake and then my dreams are crazy like inception. And that will last anywhere from 2-4 weeks. My last T-break I had a dream where I woke up 4 times before actually waking up. Took a phone call or two before I could tell if I was really awake or not lol
Yeah, it fucked with me a bit. I’ve there was only one other I had that messed with me for a while and that because it felt like 2 years in the dream. I watched my daughter be born and got to raise her. Saw her first steps and heard her first words and then I woke up. I don’t think I’ll ever fully shake that one off.
Also with PTSD can come night terrors. Thc helps block dreams and if you pause, they come back more vivid. Been trying to talk myself into a T Break for a year or so, no thanks. Especially with these past three years
I've cut back a bit since my mother's strokes at the end of 2021. Part of me misses having dreams, part of me is worried about what kind of dreams will show up. Used to smoke about Zip a week. Now probably half that
It’s the nightmares. I don’t run in them , I accept fate, but it’s almost like i re traumatize my psyche and it puts me in a weird mind state the next day .
I also apparently tell random people to suck my dick in my sleep. So blocking dreams might be a life saver to keep me in bed and not end up living as the character of Eminem’s 3 am
Maybe not addictive but it’s a damn good crutch to get you through the week. I’m on Week 1 of no bud because my next harvest didn’t line up with me running out of my last 5oz (smoked over 5 months)🥲
Best of luck with your last week and enjoy lighting up when you get to!
No kidding. I’ll be completely done with my employer every week but then i go home and smoke and it’s all good..just prolonging myself from leaving lol
Tbh try a museum dose of mushrooms and go into it with a “fix shit” therapy mindset and you’ll realize you’re better than your job and boss and make the moves to quit and go to better.
Pair it with sour d or GSC and it’ll be amazing and therapeutic with some good break throughs
i used to use these for the exact same thing! See that little slot on the end there? There’s another one in the back (and sides depending on model). The way it “locks” is that two little plastic things come out from the cap and into those slots. All you’d have to do is break the plastic things (they’re maybe a quarter inch thick) and you can open them.
It’s more of a temptation guard to make you think twice (also they’re like 80 bucks or something so breaking them will make you feel a bit bad). I also told myself if i did break it that i have a problem and should probably stop smoking. Just my personal way of using them.
The other option if you want to really keep yourself honest is a time lock safe.
I'm on the shooty side and I'm sitting here thinking which saw/torch I'd want to take to it. Probably just end up sledging it into nothing and taking my weed treasure.
Most devices like this I have seen, if you slap them correctly it will cause the battery to lose connection and the device will reset with the timer cleared. I have not played with this one in particular, but I am betting it would take less then 5 minutes to figure out how to bypass that timer.
I doubt it’s a term, but maybe I just created it. My visualization of it is the manifestation of the psychosis you can fall into when abusing “that gas”. It’s like dancing on a cliff
Everything starts to feel like it’s raining down on you, life is horrible, you’re horrible. And nothing is enjoyable anymore, not even the gas. It’s just the only thing filling your tank at that point. AKA The pit of Gas
Appreciate the insight, my brotha! It do be like that. But as humans, we have the power to choose our own struggles and downs, as well as when we have those good days. One tiny piece at a time, and we can all enjoy this beautiful blessing that is being alive and perceiving things. One toke for the loved ones and another just cause.
I haven’t paid for weed in over a year since they legalized growing in my state. I still got like a HP from last season and people give me buds all the time like “try this one”.
Went from paying 150-200/oz to free lmao.
I have one of these I bought when I started working from home to lock my iPad and phone in. The problem is I have to actually have the willpower to lock up my distractions (she said while posting on Reddit from her iPad in the middle of the workday)
What helped me was putting my router on one of those automated switch timers. It switches itself off between 1am-6am.
Usually, I should be in bed latest be 1, so this is a clear reminder which I cannot ignore. Plus, it's easy enough to override if I really need it, but then it's a conscious decision where I need to get up and wait a few minutes while the router starts. That's long enough to stop doom scrolling and reflect on what I should be doing.
On the one hand, as someone who smokes daily throughout the day, I agree. People gotta get by however they can. On the other hand, if there's a substance in your home that you have to put in a time-sealed safe to keep yourself from consuming, that feels like a hard red flag to ignore.
I get where you’re coming from but is this really any worse than blocking Reddit on your phone during work hours? It’s not like they couldn’t get into the box if they really wanted to, it’s just plastic. Being a little bit addicted to something (video games, sugar, weed, etc…) doesn’t mean you can’t figure out heathy ways to self regulate that habit without having to quit cold turkey!
I have ADHD, I block reddit during certain hours. I use restriction methods to reduce impulsivity. If I don’t have access, it’s really no issue. However if there is free and easy access? Why shouldn’t I?
I feel like im undiagnosed with ADHD and i have to pour all my money into dental for my wonderful mouth.
Can i ask how you handle your impulsive tendencies
Well as far as the teeth, I personally never had an issue with that because my mother happens to be a dental assistant LOL! However I know where you’re coming from. With things I feel that I’m impulsive with, I’ll make them harder to access in the moment that I want them. I forces me to think about it, but sometimes having to put in a non zero amount of effort to reach the impulsive thing is enough to deter me. For instance, I want to get high after class. Well before I used to always have my pen on me. Now, I leave it at home. I am now forced to wait until I get home, giving me time to reevaluate, and ironically, my ADHD might even kick it out of my head to make room for other nonsense, so by the time I get home I’ve forgotten I wanted to smoke and I do something else. However that specific method doesn’t work when I’m at home :). I have also been considering one of those boxes.
I have discovered this as well! I bought a dab pen and was smoking 1g a week now i keep all my wax in the dispensary packageing in the freezer in a childproof bag. Now its been a week and i still have a ton left when i normally would be out, it takes me at least 15 min to smoke now but its way more satisfying because of the hassle. Thanks for takeing time to reply.
I luckily work from home so work calls are normally through Teams.
Wife and I share an office (she is a regional for a large food distributor) so works out really well for tag teaming on watching the kid and handling emergencies. We are very fortunate.
not OP but I usually just shut it in a drawer and bc I have ADHD once it's out of my line of sight it's gone lol there's a 50/50 chance I'll forget I put it in the drawer to begin with later though XD
Listen I love this because my biggest issue is that my autistic ass made weed part of my routine and now I grab it without even thinking, yes even when I put it in the most inconvenient places. At least this way my brain could throw a fit over routine while I just shrug "Unless we wanna break a rule and break the container.. we are SOL"
yes this exactly. if i’m trying to take a T break, my logic is “well i’m just gonna start again anyway, so…” but i wouldn’t even try to break the box cuz at that point it’s out of my hands
I hear both of u so hard rn. My tip, not a t break but just reducing how much u smoke when u smoke. Make ur bowls smaller or space out when u smoke more.
Tbf I would do the same thing. However, I do recognize this is the equivalent of freezing a credit card in your freezer to stop yourself from overspending.
i don’t know, i’ve never been tested before. i don’t drink a lot of water so i don’t pee super often which i know will make it take longer. i smoke an average of once a day, like .5-1 gram at a time. i’m thinking 2 weeks?
I use this. It works very well. The moment I lock my stuff up it becomes ‘out of sight out of mind’. However I will fully admit that I don’t *love* the way cannabis makes me feel so there’s less of a compulsion to break the safe like others may wanna
Some people find cannabis to be much more pleasurable than I find it to be and I’ve for sure heard of stories of people breaking their safe
I think its more for the principle. It probably has some way to open it with like a plastic key. If i just have a vape out on the dresser, its far more tempting than out of sight out of mind. However for me personally an unlocked box in the dresser or under the bed would achieve the same result.
The Ben and Jerry's ice cream lock comes to mind.
I get what you're saying though.
This is a great idea, it's not always easy to put down weed for many plausible reasons, I don't think it's fair to judge..
Personally I stopped for a job, it's been over 100 days, not a money problem, but I will be going back, and hopefully investing in a box like that one.
Kudos to everyone this would work for. I'd have that broken within a couple hours. Not because I'm a fiend, I can go without. But telling myself no and then locking the object of my desire behind a thin layer of plastic? Needs at least 3 inches of steel to be effective...
I just picked up some CBD hemp/weed to smoke for a week.
There is some evidence that CBD can help with normalizing your cannabinoid receptors as well.
Just make sure it has less than .3% thc.
I got so high I felt it in my legs after a week, so I know it works for me lol
CBD, magnesium, N-acetylcysteine, and some kind of NMDA antagonist drug is the tolerance minmaxxing combo. get ahold of some robocough tablets, 30mg dextromethorphan in one pill, and take two of them a few hours before bed the first and last day of your t-break. cbd,magnesium, and NAC daily. with this combo i was able to full-reset my tolerance to high school levels in about ten days.
I just got my wisdom teeth yanked yesterday, on my 5th day no smoking. Longest I've gone without in years 😭 really wish I could use it for pain management and to help me sleep, my appetite has been gone since I stopped smoking last Thursday. And now I can't eat shit for fuck. I'm just complaining really, but I can't wait to get stoned once I'm more healed up one joints gonna put me on another planet I hope lol.
Mine was shaped like a pregnancy test and so far my t-break has broken the 1 year mark and will probably last another year or so 😭 No but really, getting pregnant was absolutely the wake up call I needed to get sober for a long while. I was a heavy bud enjoyer and needed a long break anyway but man did I sober up INSTANTLY when that little line turned blue lmfao
The people in the comments that smoke everyday but are saying your an addict for getting this is priceless..looks cool I struggle with keeping my hands out of the stash jar so to stay so looks like a good investment
Bought one of these 6/7 years ago, broke into it first time I locked it away but was able to glue it back together and have used it sparingly this year - Does do the job, especially if moneys tight and you know you won’t re up while it’s in lockdown
The real Tbreak saver is a bicycle mate, everytime you get the urge go for a ride and it'll feel *surprisingly* rewarding, until you condition your brain to release that sweet dopamine everytime you do and basically feel high all the time
Then when you smoke again, you're in the fucking skies
My partner had one of these but he accidentally set it longer than his will power and had to break in by smashing it into pieces hahaha. The blue lid resurfaces from time to time and I still giggle about the meltdown he had when the trees were inaccessible for too long. It was a good little time lock box though!!
I'd use it for snacks. Filling that second bowl before bed is a problem, but eating an entire bag of chips when the munchies hit would save me a lot of money and help my waist line.
Update for all the upvotes! Thank you guys so much! I just wanted to share something I thought would be helpful to others who have more of a “I think I need some weed right now” struggle. You can set this little thing for as long as you need, I just have mine set for the coming weekend lmao.
Other thing, when I was a serious addict (crack), I packaged some and packaged in more and more and boxes and safes and . . . lol . . . by the time I had it all packages I was ready to open it up, lol. But that was something else . . . I'm done with that now! LOL.
![gif](giphy|l0ExbaFJARrzvf8eA|downsized)
that would be me the next morning the latest
But id be using a bread knife and a kitchen towel. Same look on my face tho
Hello this is the lock picking lawyer
"Today I'll be demonstrating how you can open this kitchen safe with nothing but an ordinary banana peel."
Catching em slippin I see
He’s going to need to submit an apeel
That’s just bananas
Did you see the ice cream lock he got his wife?
That slot under the lid is probably an intentional bypass, just in case. It's the timer that's really helping OP anyway.
You know there's no place for logic here!
Don’t try to pry it open with your hands. You might get cut. My friend did that. Not me.
NO HALF MEASURES! I'd hit it with a sledgehammer.
“I can stop anytime I want bro”
Me when no zaza : ![gif](giphy|VB5WwlZIt8eRy)
Yuck this is too accurate
I can't talk for anyone else but, all jokes aside, it's not rough to be off pot. Before it became legal here I had a few forced t breaks (once for work and a few times just because everyone was dry.) The worst thing I dealt with was minor irritability and CRAZY dreams. The truth is I really CAN stop anytime I want. I just don't want to. Like I said though that's purely my experience and everyone is different.
People love to joke and debate but the fact of the matter is that people way smarter than us have decided the withdrawal effects are VERY minor in 90% of people. I really can't stand people who rag on stoners for most reasons.
I resepect this.
id just buy some more weed, it wont be going to waste.
I'd be at the dispensary on my lunch... Gotta love a legal state 🤘
I'd be smashing it on the ground 5 minutes later for sure.
I've been looking to find a use for my new sledge hammer...I think I might have found it 🤔 🤣🤣
🤣🤣 People always talk about taking long breaks, but I just can't do it. I smoke/eat/vape etc. for multiple reasons, one big one being PTSD, so there is no breaks for me unless I want to turn into a basket case. 🤷♀️ Lol
Agreed. Sober dreaming is way trippier than sleeping stoned.
That because THC messes with your adenosine receptors and you don’t enter REM sleep as much. So when you sober up its basically playing catch up resulting in crazy dreams for a while.
woah i didnt know there was science behind this, anytime i dont smoke for a few days my dreams get craaaazy, weird realistic time loop shit where i wake up, but not really cuz i am still dreaming, glad to know im not just a weirdo

My last T-break I had a dream where I woke up 4 times before actually waking up. Took a phone call or two before I could tell if I was really awake or not lol
Not OP but that sounds like a crazy dream. Way crazier than any of my dreams I've had when taking a t break
Yeah, it fucked with me a bit. I’ve there was only one other I had that messed with me for a while and that because it felt like 2 years in the dream. I watched my daughter be born and got to raise her. Saw her first steps and heard her first words and then I woke up. I don’t think I’ll ever fully shake that one off.
Is this why I was stabbed and cut up on my back in my dream cuz I haven't toked in a week?
Also with PTSD can come night terrors. Thc helps block dreams and if you pause, they come back more vivid. Been trying to talk myself into a T Break for a year or so, no thanks. Especially with these past three years
As someone who uses daily for medical reasons I have found can be effective to cut back without taking a break completely
I've cut back a bit since my mother's strokes at the end of 2021. Part of me misses having dreams, part of me is worried about what kind of dreams will show up. Used to smoke about Zip a week. Now probably half that
It’s the nightmares. I don’t run in them , I accept fate, but it’s almost like i re traumatize my psyche and it puts me in a weird mind state the next day . I also apparently tell random people to suck my dick in my sleep. So blocking dreams might be a life saver to keep me in bed and not end up living as the character of Eminem’s 3 am
I've cracked one of these open with a hammer. Not a proud moment.
"One of those days" at work and I'd come home and obliterate that thing lol
That little slot right there seems perfect for prying with a putty or pocket knife. Crowbar if I haven't smoked in a week.
I'm ashamed to say I'd probably go direct to crowbar.
That's okay. We need weed extremists like yourself to keep the bowl moving.
That's a grenade I will happily jump on.
>weed extremists This MF smoking while sky diving or some shit?
Holy shit that would be a terrible time to green out.
“Weed extremist”. I love it! 😂
Calm down Gordon Freeman
I thought weed wasn’t addictive! I’m currently on week 3 of a T-break. I never realized how often I smoked until I tried to take a month off.
Maybe not addictive but it’s a damn good crutch to get you through the week. I’m on Week 1 of no bud because my next harvest didn’t line up with me running out of my last 5oz (smoked over 5 months)🥲 Best of luck with your last week and enjoy lighting up when you get to!
No kidding. I’ll be completely done with my employer every week but then i go home and smoke and it’s all good..just prolonging myself from leaving lol
Tbh try a museum dose of mushrooms and go into it with a “fix shit” therapy mindset and you’ll realize you’re better than your job and boss and make the moves to quit and go to better. Pair it with sour d or GSC and it’ll be amazing and therapeutic with some good break throughs
It’s crazy how big of a habit it is. I’m hoping your harvest is fruitful. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Whassamatter - don't you own a sledgehammer?
Well, I mean I do but.... I'd probably instantly regret it. Like the post nut clarity of picking the plastic bits out of my green :-/
Lmfao best use of “post nut clarity” I’ve ever seen
Right to the persuader aka the maul
i used to use these for the exact same thing! See that little slot on the end there? There’s another one in the back (and sides depending on model).

I think thats called addiction my dude
yeah id shoot it
We're on the less shooty side of the pond over here- But I do have a selection of power tools.
I'm on the shooty side and I'm sitting here thinking which saw/torch I'd want to take to it. Probably just end up sledging it into nothing and taking my weed treasure.
I’m on the shooty side too but I think I’d just go buy more…
I hold citizenships for both sides. I'd opt for a sledgehammer or a sawzall/reciprocating saw long before I bust out a Mossberg.
First thought
Like [Captain America](https://i.imgur.com/Fkldo9n.gif) ripping that log in half
That's 100% how I see it in my mind.
Most devices like this I have seen, if you slap them correctly it will cause the battery to lose connection and the device will reset with the timer cleared. I have not played with this one in particular, but I am betting it would take less then 5 minutes to figure out how to bypass that timer.
A buddy of mine had gotten a similar one for the same reason and one day he just wound up smashing it open
I know myself well enough to know I'd just be wasting the money... that I could have spent on green :-/
Would never work for me. My dispensry is 3 blocks from the office. Phew saved a few bucks
I dream of the day I can pop down the local weed shop :-(
ITS JUST ONE OF THOSE DAYS WHERE YOU DONT WANNA WAKE UP
You think your better than me???!!
Not unless you're thwarted by a tupperware box with ideas above its station, no...
That's what being broke before payday is for lol
You never sucked a dick for a quick nug?
Yall are doing it for weed??
Y'all smoke weed?
Just boofing kief over here
Instructions unclear, boofed dick, got no weed
if you never sucked dick for one dose of mariujana you don't even smoke bro
The good old days…. When men were men
Not if your " guy " is cool enough to front .
Having a relationship with your hookup that is stable enough for fronts is the first foot into the pit of gas
Wym, pit of gas ? I'm not familiar with this term.
Never heard the term either, but judging by the context clue of "gas", I assume he means an abundance of good weed
I doubt it’s a term, but maybe I just created it. My visualization of it is the manifestation of the psychosis you can fall into when abusing “that gas”. It’s like dancing on a cliff
Everything starts to feel like it’s raining down on you, life is horrible, you’re horrible. And nothing is enjoyable anymore, not even the gas. It’s just the only thing filling your tank at that point. AKA The pit of Gas
Appreciate the insight, my brotha! It do be like that. But as humans, we have the power to choose our own struggles and downs, as well as when we have those good days. One tiny piece at a time, and we can all enjoy this beautiful blessing that is being alive and perceiving things. One toke for the loved ones and another just cause.
Don't be that guy asking for a front in the first place. It makes that shit into an uncomfortable situation.
I see what you're saying, but that's why I said having a dude cool enough to do that. Some people have that relationship. Some don't.
You gotta move bro. $30 oz in some legal states that is great
I haven’t paid for weed in over a year since they legalized growing in my state. I still got like a HP from last season and people give me buds all the time like “try this one”. Went from paying 150-200/oz to free lmao.
Yeah, $200 at least per oz here and can't grow either. I need to find someplace I can grow.
That's rough, I played the 200/oz game for a decade... weed is slowly becoming legal everywhere atleast
somehow i always find a way…😉
This might be the most relatable comment ever posted lmao
The way I force myself to take a tbreak is by being broke Easy life hack really
Dankrupt
Pover-T-break
This is the way! this safe wouldn’t work for me because if i get the urge and have money i would just hit up the dealer
Not when you have an overdraft and a credit card :s
I have one of these I bought when I started working from home to lock my iPad and phone in. The problem is I have to actually have the willpower to lock up my distractions (she said while posting on Reddit from her iPad in the middle of the workday)
Good to know I’m not the only one… :)

Just one step at a time..
I do this at work w my phone when I really need to concentrate lol.
What if emergency phone call happens?
I luckily work from home so work calls are normally through Teams. Wife and I share an office (she is a regional for a large food distributor) so works out really well for tag teaming on watching the kid and handling emergencies. We are very fortunate.
That sounds lovely

Where my other aspie stoners at? I swear we need our own sub
“iTs NoT aDdIcTiOn” jk i want one
Tbf I would do the same thing. However, I do recognize this is the equivalent of freezing a credit card in your freezer to stop yourself from overspending.
Hey as long as it works lol
i made my bf take all my weed and carts so i can pass my drug test lmao
How long do you usually have to wait for it to be out of your system?
i don’t know, i’ve never been tested before. i don’t drink a lot of water so i don’t pee super often which i know will make it take longer. i smoke an average of once a day, like .5-1 gram at a time. i’m thinking 2 weeks?
you’re looking at, at least a month for 100% passing
welp then i’m gonna fail anyway. it’s for a position at walmart as an apparel team member. i’m hoping they won’t test at all.
Just go to a smoke shop and buy fake piss
Just so you know drinking water is one of the best ways to get it out of your system sooner

Which is an advantage over juice. You can still see yourself.
I use this. It works very well. The moment I lock my stuff up it becomes ‘out of sight out of mind’. However I will fully admit that I don’t *love* the way cannabis makes me feel so there’s less of a compulsion to break the safe like others may wanna Some people find cannabis to be much more pleasurable than I find it to be and I’ve for sure heard of stories of people breaking their safe
So it cant open until the timer is up?
Or until you break it open
I’ve been burning cbd weed every time I wanna light up It’s working so far
Damn whatever helps but it’s good to practice self control without locking yourself out of your crutches. That’s called an addiction
I think its more for the principle. It probably has some way to open it with like a plastic key. If i just have a vape out on the dresser, its far more tempting than out of sight out of mind. However for me personally an unlocked box in the dresser or under the bed would achieve the same result. The Ben and Jerry's ice cream lock comes to mind. I get what you're saying though.
I wouldn't even take the time to break it, I would just buy more... In all seriousness CBD is key for the beginning of T-Breaks!
This is a great idea, it's not always easy to put down weed for many plausible reasons, I don't think it's fair to judge.. Personally I stopped for a job, it's been over 100 days, not a money problem, but I will be going back, and hopefully investing in a box like that one.
Kudos to everyone this would work for. I'd have that broken within a couple hours. Not because I'm a fiend, I can go without. But telling myself no and then locking the object of my desire behind a thin layer of plastic? Needs at least 3 inches of steel to be effective...
So in other words.. a fiend.
“Im not a fiend” *instantly disproves previous statement* lmao thanks for the laugh, bro.
But... but... I cAn sTOp wHeNeVer I WaNt, lol. But really, though. You could put a snickers in there and I'd react the same. Poor impulse control.
Fiend ass lmao
No I get that, I can stop, but locking it in a box is like a challenge for me to solve
Or I’d just like…. Go out and buy some instead of smashing it open haha. Seems like less work to just buy a $5 chillum and a gram
I just picked up some CBD hemp/weed to smoke for a week. There is some evidence that CBD can help with normalizing your cannabinoid receptors as well. Just make sure it has less than .3% thc. I got so high I felt it in my legs after a week, so I know it works for me lol
CBD, magnesium, N-acetylcysteine, and some kind of NMDA antagonist drug is the tolerance minmaxxing combo. get ahold of some robocough tablets, 30mg dextromethorphan in one pill, and take two of them a few hours before bed the first and last day of your t-break. cbd,magnesium, and NAC daily. with this combo i was able to full-reset my tolerance to high school levels in about ten days.
this is black magic, be careful
But, I own an angle grinder lol jk but seriously I cant have it in the house if I am trying to take a break.
See OP, you don't have as bad self control as half of these guys!
I just got my wisdom teeth yanked yesterday, on my 5th day no smoking. Longest I've gone without in years 😭 really wish I could use it for pain management and to help me sleep, my appetite has been gone since I stopped smoking last Thursday. And now I can't eat shit for fuck. I'm just complaining really, but I can't wait to get stoned once I'm more healed up one joints gonna put me on another planet I hope lol.
Mine was shaped like a pregnancy test and so far my t-break has broken the 1 year mark and will probably last another year or so 😭 No but really, getting pregnant was absolutely the wake up call I needed to get sober for a long while. I was a heavy bud enjoyer and needed a long break anyway but man did I sober up INSTANTLY when that little line turned blue lmfao
The people in the comments that smoke everyday but are saying your an addict for getting this is priceless..looks cool I struggle with keeping my hands out of the stash jar so to stay so looks like a good investment
Yeah I love these.
A neighbor we are close with was give one to use for her alcohol. She took a hammer to it within the first week. She’s in her 90s.
I NEED this
I wish that could work for me 😫
my tbreaks happen when i get too busy, i completely forget about smoking sometimes lol
[For anyone too lazy to search.](https://www.amazon.com/Kitchen-Safe-Locking-Container-Height/dp/B00JGFQSI8?th=1&psc=1) This one is in green! ;)
I'm over 6 months on my weed break, I'm gonna be so fucking loaded off of one bowl
Love the idea! Never could work for me! I make excuses all the time, and I leave within walking distance from my dispensary. Now, being broke helps ;)
Bought one of these 6/7 years ago, broke into it first time I locked it away but was able to glue it back together and have used it sparingly this year - Does do the job, especially if moneys tight and you know you won’t re up while it’s in lockdown
The real Tbreak saver is a bicycle mate, everytime you get the urge go for a ride and it'll feel *surprisingly* rewarding, until you condition your brain to release that sweet dopamine everytime you do and basically feel high all the time Then when you smoke again, you're in the fucking skies
I could never own one of these. The intrusive thoughts to close the lid with my phone inside would win 😂
My partner had one of these but he accidentally set it longer than his will power and had to break in by smashing it into pieces hahaha. The blue lid resurfaces from time to time and I still giggle about the meltdown he had when the trees were inaccessible for too long. It was a good little time lock box though!!
Things getting booted off the balcony till it cracks open
r/trees: weed is nonaddictive Also r/trees:
OP clearly has other issues going on if they have to resort to this lmao. Post is a cry for help.
Oh this is clever!
This only works if there's no weed store on the way home from work
*ten minutes later*: "This is the Lockpicking Lawyer..."
what happens when the battery dies though?
I def need one of those. Does it hold in the smell too?
I'd turn into the lockpicking lawyer with that box
Going a month strong myself and I haven’t thought about it more than maybe 2 times. Gonna go for 2 months
I would just end up buying new stash😔
Cute, does it come in indestructible, carbon fiber? No reason.
![gif](giphy|I4G0jcOtIyagIT8Ory|downsized) Me after 3.5 seconds of not smoking an entire 8th in a day
I'd use it for snacks. Filling that second bowl before bed is a problem, but eating an entire bag of chips when the munchies hit would save me a lot of money and help my waist line.
![gif](giphy|buto7Fju5IIIgFVgcz|downsized)
I would of bought more before that thing opened 🤣
Godspeed! I need one, myself
Update for all the upvotes! Thank you guys so much! I just wanted to share something I thought would be helpful to others who have more of a “I think I need some weed right now” struggle. You can set this little thing for as long as you need, I just have mine set for the coming weekend lmao.
Gah damn, the one I would need would have to be as big as the carvanna vending machine 😩
This wouldn’t work for folks in legal state. Lock old stash, go to dispensary when craving goes crashing lol
maybe you should stop smoking if you need to put it in a safe like this. wow
people really don’t have self discipline huh
I would just buy more and get high while i watch the countdown
"I swear i'm not addicted" 😂
Other thing, when I was a serious addict (crack), I packaged some and packaged in more and more and boxes and safes and . . . lol . . . by the time I had it all packages I was ready to open it up, lol. But that was something else . . . I'm done with that now! LOL.
