I’m 32 and have been smoking weed daily since 20 years old. I realized a few years, as my speech has slightly improved that my stutter stems from 100% anxiety based or at least that’s what it feels like. But we essentially self medicate using weed and it’s hard to give up and quit. When I go on vacation, I don’t smoke weed for about 2-3 weeks and I remember being clear headed, I felt good, but yet I missed relaxing with weed. I’m trying to give up right now. I’m two days clean actually but substituting with a nicotine vape. I’m almost done with the vape and imma try to give this shit up. Just my 2 cents.
