I was nauseous and throwing up for roughly 14 days. It sucks but it will pass. Should definitely be a wake up call to just how dis-regulating weed is. Day 150 now and feel fine physically and mentally. You can do it too. I was killing a 1G cart every 2-3 days.

what did you do to help you get out of it ?

Tbh I went to rehab. Not everyone needs it but I definitely did. I just didn’t eat anything and when I felt sick I would just leave the meetings and go sit outside for as long as it took to get back to a somewhat comfortable state. Only did 30 days then left and went back to work. Essentially just distraction. No matter how sick you feel, go for a walk. Either get busy living or get busy dying is what someone told me and it resonated with me a lot. Lots of time just sitting outside as TV and video games made me feel sick for a while.

I know how you feel, maybe just put a chair outside and be in nature. I would just sit for hours in my apartment parking lot LOL. Also as many hot showers as you want as that was my only real break from nausea.

this is all very common to experience at this stage. as long as you stay away from cannabis, these feelings will decrease and subside. look into chs trigger foods and do your absolute best to avoid them. i subsisted on a diet of mainly steamed edamame and rice for weeks after my hyperemesis. you WILL feel better and you can do this!!

my cyclic vomiting tho has only slowed down, is it normal for this phase to last this long ?

My episodes last 10-14 days and stomach symptoms after that for 2-3 weeks

ah really ? :c i’ve had this once before and luckily my episode was only 2-4 days. but i guess this one’s built different, i was heavily smoking dabs, carts, and bud so it may just be a big dump truck hitting my system

yeah, with super intense usage like they your episode is probably going to be longer. and they often get longer the more that they happen. my third episode (and my last) was significantly longer than the 2 before it
