Cannabis withdrawal can come with insomnia and anxiety, which can be quite uncomfortable…

I'm on my third day. Mind you I'm also doing 24-hour fast. It's all in the mind. You have to want to change. You have to want to quit. I caught myself being depressed, angry, mad when I didn't have weed. I felt like I couldn't watch movies or eat food or hang out with my family without smoking. It just made everything 10 times better. It's all psychological in the mind. Once you stop it, you realize how much you've missed out

Left the same comment on a different withdrawals video but here it is 😅 I was a chronic user from the moment I got out of bed to the moment I got into bed…was high pretty much 24/7 and when I was sober I didn’t feel “normal” when I didn’t smoke I felt ugly n got sick… but now I’m almost 2 weeks sober, I had it all, night sweats/cold sweats, insomnia, stomach problems, couldn’t really eat the first few days, light headed, headaches, vivid dream that honestly felt so real, my anxiety was through the roof I could feel my chest started to pound when I felt the need to smoke or relax 😅 I was getting mad at everything, feeling depressed and overwhelmed by little things that weed and being high helped me cope with. I honestly almost gave up the day I am writing this Nov 2 but I powered through it. Everyone going through this just remember it doesn’t last forever even thou you feel like you might pass out or “die” but never gets to that point it’s your body and mind trying to convince you to get your fix because you made it so accustom to being high. It’s your body detoxing the thc and cbd from itself. Just give it time we all got this 👌☺️

Make a schedule or plan and slowly decrease use gradually!! I was a heavy heavy smoker 8-10 blunts a day cut back to 5 then 3. Now just once before bed to help relax and watch shows. Hope this helps peace and love

I wish more people would talk about how it’s actually way longer than just a couple days of withdrawal. For people who smoked heavy and for long-term, withdrawal can last a couple weeks to even months… and they can get pretty bad. Everything from extreme insomnia, extreme diarrhea, nausea, mood issues, depression, paranoia, hot and cold sweats. I don’t think most doctors or people truly know the length or extent but it’s definitely more than just a few days and everyone is different.

Hi, I’m curious how you’re doing? I’ve decided to stop smoking after 55 years. Yep. I’m going on 71 years and i started at 16 in the 60’s. Been wanting to quit for a few years now, just didn’t know how, or think I could. I recently caught bronchitis and wasn’t able to vape at all or smoke w/o making that intense coughing so much worse. So I didn’t, now it’s been 7 or 8 or days? since I last had a puff, and I’m so irritable, insomnia, nightmares, sweating, loose stool, headache, thankfully no vomiting, and i wasn’t smoking a lot anymore just a few puffs in the evening, to help unwind and sleep, but never took a break. At least not since the early 90’s, and once in the 80’s. Weed helped me cope, with everything!!! I REALLY want to see what life is like not under the influence. I’m wondering if I have a mental disorder, adhd? Or ?? Sorry this has gotten so long. I chose you since you’re a recent post here. Thanks for any advice.

I'm an artists and some of my very best work and sleep has been off weed. When u care u just stop. If u don't care to u won't. So care if something is telling u to

It’s 2:32 and woke up a few minutes ago to one of the most strange nightmares. Was mildly sweating. The past two years I smoked heavily almost daily. Joint, tried different strains, packed my bowl and did edibles. LOVED the high of course yet I’m ready to rediscover myself

If you’re a daily smoker. The best way is taking 1 day off a week. After a couple weeks do 2 days off, then 3,etc. also start tracking you’re uses, if yk you usually take like 8-10 rips every sesh to get lit, take 2 less rips. Ik it may seem too much but I do these every time I wanna sober up and it helps. (Until the reason for sobering up passes and I can start chiefing again 😂)

Somehow through horrible choices throughout my life that didnt seem horrible at the time, I dropped out of college and landed an office job that I have held for 26 years, working from home for the past 8 of those years- I no longer feel as smart as I was once considered, I have issues going out of my house for the past 6 years and if my morning 'routine' has any type of 'hiccup' my whole day is ruined/thrown off. I have smoked cigarettes since I was 13 years old and I am not ready to quit, as it feels like that is the thing that 'calms my nerves'- I think I maybe some type of neurodivergent but dont even know at this point in my life if having an official diagnosis would change anything🤷‍♀️

Idk man, I have ridiculously strong "will power" what my buddies call it. Not really, like not at all, I'm completely a gluten and I will enjoy what I wanna in joy, but when it comes to quitting something addictive, never been a problem, don't get me wrong I definitely feel the withdrawals, same thing with smoking cigarettes, that actually had cravings to it. Like kept getting the feeling that I need a cigarette, I kept my pack on my night stand, and just didn't physically move towards it. It's that simple, you can have all the cravings you want, it still requires you to physically grab it and smoke it. Just don't. Idk why that's mind blowing, you eventually lose the cravings so what's the point?? I take 1-3 month long breaks from weed every few months of smoking, when I notice a whole gram of dab doesn't last me a day anymore lmao. I love the experience of the weed withdrawal actually, I weaponize it. I get the symptoms he's stalking about, but also a small amount of generalized anxiety for a week, but I also get super restless and my brain is racing for like 5 days! You have any idea how many things of taught myself during those periods?? That's my excessive cardio week too! The ridiculous boost of absolute restlessness is wild. I love weed man, I love running lightly high, I love working out and taking my time feeling the muscles, I love going on hikes, reading books, listening to lectures, talks, or simply enjoying the hell out of music. Getting out of the military was a bit rough the first 6 months, losing all your homies in one day is ass. But eventually I discovered weed and never looked back sense lmao. Of course I have priorities and I'm not just doing to work high, or doing my college courses high. But my free time is mine to live out ya know? Stay safe and warm yall ❤

I don’t know if it’s the withdrawal that does it or the brain just returning to its normal insomniatic ways. Insomnia is the main reason I began using. Ever since my teen years I can rarely sleep over 4 hours in a row, once in about 2 months I get a lucky 8-9 hours in, but normally it’s 3-6 hours, with only one night a week hitting 6. Cannabis changed that for me, 6-8 hours is my normal sleep time, usually 9-10 the night of use. The sleep effects often take three days to wear off, so I don’t use it that often. Except if I get an injury I’ll use it more frequently. I used to to heal a severely sprained ankle very quickly, and also Plantar’s Fasciitis (I had it for 8 months, it was gone about 1 month after I started using cannabis, although I was doing exercises at the same time, with cannabis came the tai chi… yeah…. I’m getting old).

I think more often than strange dreams, it's just dream recall. People start remembering their dreams when they quit, which they would not have remembered if they were ingesting. Dreams are just strange. In fact, that's the loophole dreams give us that lucid exploit to achieve otherwise very difficult feats that can sometimes be yogic in nature (conscious control over normally unconscious faculties). It's just like how some people remember their dreams in black and white. The dream wasn't black and white, that's just how their brain remembers the remnants of their dreams that it is able to hold on to. I want to see more people use it as an occasional reward for having lucid dreams, and to reset their dream recall after the lapse of recall that comes from too much THC. Every time I quit completely after smoking all day, every day, for months, my dream recall is fantastic. Then it normals off, unless I record my dream content every day.

Like everything in life it’s all about balance. I’ve finally got my weed consumption down to where I only smoke once a month at the end of the month when I allow myself to take a break from eating clean and I have a cheat meal. Been doing it since March now and I really like it because I can start the new month off strong, really focus on my diet and training then reward myself for ONE day at the end of the month. It also makes for a really enjoyable smoking experience because after a month of not smoking it’s like getting high for the first time again. Only difference is I’ve built up the discipline to not over indulge in it. I still smoke but I’m no longer a pot head 😂

@natasha09179 8 месяцев назад
No, many SEEM psychological, but this is an urban myth. Anxiety is from the e do cannabinoid system being disrupted. Cannabis replaces endogenous endocannabinoids such as Anandamide, and then when the drug is taken away, the body has to start making its own endocannabinoid again, and this takes time. These chemicals are responsible for helping to regulate the autonomic nervous system, so when there aren’t enough of them, these processes suffer and we can have withdrawl symptoms until our bodies start to produce enough of these again. Some symptoms may be: insomnia, dizziness, breathlessness, high heart rate, inability to regulate body temperature appropriately (sweating and chills), appetite, and many other functions.
