A 22-year-old content creator and model is getting real about withdrawal symptoms she said she’s experienced since she stopped smoking marijuana two months ago.
Suede Brooks from Las Vegas made a viral TikTok on Sunday in which she claimed to have gone through a pound of weed every three months while smoking every day for nine years.
“Thought I would open up a bit,” she captioned the clip, which has sparked over 2.3 million views. “For the longest time, I never thought I had a problem with it until I realized the amount of money that I was spending … and if you smoke weed, you know how much that is.”

Why would you quit?
The modern version of “legalization” is a joke.
The states are licensing and taxing the industry like crazy making the product very expensive.
As another poster noted most serious users are much better off growing their own.
Once the states figure that out “the war on drugs” will begin again to snuff out the competition to the state sponsored monopolies.
I doubt many people are growing their own. 80 - 90% of pot is still going through the same illegal dealers.
As soon as she said she was smoking a pound every 3 months I knew she was lying. No way is that possible.
This woman is a mental case. The pot use has very little to do with it, other than it may have intensified her insanity. Now she is a non pot smoking mental case doing whatever she can to get attention on “socialist Media”
Judging fr this thread-I would guess the following-
weed is addictive and has terrible withdrawal symptoms-
yet users frequently take tolerance breaks which wouldn’t happen if it was addictive and caused terrible withdrawal.
weed is expensive-weed has never been cheaper in inflation adjusted dollars.
weed causes tons of traffic fatalities-states that have legalized it have seen little to no change.
bright successful people don’t use weed. Smart folks don’t believe in God too. But they do use weed and plenty of bright successful people believe in God too.
I understand the need to make oneself feel good that leads to posting complete nonsense. Some use weed, some use booze, others just make stuff up and post it on the internet.
She’s a lefthanded girl, with long white talons. She talks with her hands quite a lot.
Which don’t negatively affect your reasoning,
Focus, or awareness.
Yep.
22 year old “Content Creator .” 😂
I laugh, but some of these content creators are raking in Big $$.
states that have legalized it have seen a decline in opioid overdoses and overdose deaths.
that is some gateway drug-gateway to high fructose corn syrup.
some use booze, some use sex, some use weed and others get a rise out of making stuff up and posting it on the internet.
Have a joint on the weekend, one thing. Having several joints a night, quite another.
Have a beer after mowing the yard, one thing. Killing a six pack nightly, quite another.
That’s excessive usage. Like alcoholics.
Around 5 ozs a month? Crappy weed I guess.
Casual users maybe two ounces a year or more time. Ahem, so I’ve been told.
Depends on the person.
Never smoked it. The smell was so bad (to me).
Smelled more pot in the military than anywhere else including college.
Several people in the ECM shop in our avionics maintenance squadron got busted for smoking pot. Top Secret clearance - poof - up in smoke and never getting it back.
It can affect your focus. Try being around people who don’t get their daily soda or coffee fixes. Heck nutrasweet is addictive, no diet cokey makes them go bonkers.
Seems stupid now.
It just using it makes someone an expert, the. Then there are a lot of those. But it can also take away a person’s objectivity.
I don’t drink coffee, and I don’t see why I should have to smoke pot.
Ok, I don’t either...?!?!
