Tish Cyrus has spent more than 10 years as a self-proclaimed stoner – but she may be turning over a new leaf.
The podcast host, 57, revealed in October that she no longer smokes weed, and in a new episode Sorry, we’re Cyrus podcast with her daughter Brandi, explained the circumstances that led her to quit.
“I kind of accidentally quit smoking,” Tish explained. “I went on vacation and it was a place where I couldn’t eat weed for about three days, [I] had the worst anxiety I’ve ever had in my life. And when I tried to light it again… No.”
Tish said it’s been seven months since the fatal trip and that while she still struggles with “so much anxiety,” she now finds the weed, which used to help quell her anxiety, “makes it worse.”

“I smoked pretty hardcore for about 10 years. The last seven months have been very bad for me. Like, major anxiety,” she said. “It’s really helped me in so many ways. And lately, I’ve just not been well.”
Tish and Brandi, 37, launched their podcast in 2020, titled Sorry, we’re higha nod to Tisha’s passion for marijuana (Brandi doesn’t smoke). However, they announced in October that they had changed the name of the podcast following Tish’s departure Sorry, we’re Cyrus.
“Everyone knows I like to smoke weed. Weed was my brand,” Tish said in an Instagram video at the time. “But now I haven’t smoked for five months. So we’re back with a new name, ‘Sorry, we’re Cyrus’.”
Tish previously revealed that she started smoking in her 40s, after a traumatic experience involving daughter Miley Cyrus’ tour bus.

“I was on tour with Miley and she moved on — we were going from Houston to New Orleans — and I stayed to meet up with friends and on the way to New Orleans our bus caught fire,” she told E!’s Daily pop in 2021
The experience made it difficult for her to sleep — and when Ambien failed, she turned to weed.
In February, she opened up to PEOPLE about her love of drugs, explaining that she’s had anxiety since her 20s and finds joy in weed.
That same month, she joked on her podcast that she would have been a better parent to children Brandi, Miley, 32, Trace, 35, Braison, 30, and Noah, 24, if she had smoked when they were younger.
“I actually feel like I would have been… I didn’t smoke weed when I had kids. “I didn’t start smoking until I was about 46,” she said on the podcast. “And so I think I would have been a better parent if I had smoked then. I think I’d be… like, I don’t know, school projects, I’d feel more fun.”
