Lisa, 34

Out of the fog

Then

Lisa smoked weed to fall asleep. That became smoking to relax, to eat, to get through the day. She worked from home and noticed she was missing deadlines. She saw her friends less and less. She told herself it was only weed.

The turning point

On her birthday she stayed home and smoked alone on the couch. Her mother called and asked if everything was okay. Lisa said yes and felt that it wasn't true. She downloaded an app, picked a start date and told one friend.

Now

Lisa quit a year and a half ago. The first weeks she slept badly and had strange dreams, but that passed. She has a new job and paints again, something she hadn't done in years. She says: it wasn't a big disaster. It was a slow fog, and now I can see far again.
