She’s no longer high maintenance.

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.”

I'm a model and smoked weed every day for nine years — my withdrawal symptoms were horrifying — She said she has more energy than she ever did before.

Brooks described the first week of her sobriety journey as “absolutely miserable,” thanks to cold sweats, vomit and disrupted sleep.

“It was seriously the worst. I genuinely never wish that feeling upon anyone,” she added.

The Post has contacted Brooks for comment.

She told her followers she’s already noticed significant physical and emotional change.

“I feel so much more confident. I feel like I’m actually on the same wavelength as everyone in the universe, which is a very weird feeling,” Brooks explained.

“I’m actually able to leave my house now without having anxiety attacks,” she continued. “Overall I feel so much more energetic, I feel so much more inspired to make content — I always felt like I never wanted to film when I was high, and basically, I was high all the time.”

She also revealed she now has insanely vivid dreams, which many commenters related to as well.

“THE DREAMS!!! IT’S INSANE RIGHT??? I quit like 2-3 years ago after 4 years nonstop. And my dreams are STILL INSANE,” one TikToker shared.

“THE DREAMS. ARE LIKE MOVIES,” another agreed.

The CDC notes research has shown that about three in 10 people who smoke pot have marijuana use disorder.

According to Silver Therapeutics, the average price of a pound of marijuana in early 2023 was around $1,300, although that number depends on the buyer’s location and the type of weed.

Brooks said she and her best bud made the joint decision to get sober, which has helped “so much.”
