Struggling to Quit Smoking Marijuana

I've been smoking marijuana since about 2020. It makes me horribly sick, a whole separate post! My problem is I try to quit, but the cravings are so powerful!

Looking for Alternative Methods to Deal with Psychosis

Heyy whatsup, it's been taking awhile for me to find a group of people with psychosis and look for alternative methods. I stopped my medicine some time back because honestly I feel this is more than a mental illness. I'm not sure if ya'll notice like all the coincidences and other things that have just happened that seems very relative to what's going on in ya mind.. very annoying, very aggravating, yet also enlightening, yet so goddamn spoooooooky. Words seem to work and other things but ya know.. screw it, praying somewhat does too honestly. yet I've learnt specifity really matters, don't leave out details because of fear homies.. I can be a bit of a hypocrite sadly but all out of fear tbh. I'm forgetting everything I was gonna type now so ill stop here. happy to converse with you all, I hope you all feel the same!

I’ve been finding it hard to sleep at night because I hear and see things more vividly past 10pm it’s like clockwork that my brain deteriorates and I stay up all night too scared to fall asleep. Does anyone have any remedies for this? I’m on a waiting list to see a psychiatrist but I don’t want to wait until then to actually get sleep at night. I’ve tried music and light so far but neither help as much as I need.
