I used to love going into my backyard to smoke, especially at night. I admired the routine and associated it feeling comfortable. Now, I hop on my penny board and maybe do 10 - 15 feet back and fourth in the yard. It's helping me not miss sitting outside. It's fun, hopefully a better use of outdoor time.
Going through it right now 😢it sucks. I have no desire to stop cannabis. I sometimes wish I had the desire. Dsm-5 criteria is all me. Cannabis is my crutch to deal with life
@@TreCayUltimateLife hey , thanks for checking up on me 👋 I got covid and the flu literally a couple weeks after the whole duration was about 1 month and a half give or take im still congested but because I couldn’t smoke during that whole time and believe me I tried, It feels like I’m smoking less but the desire hasn’t left i don’t think. And during the time I was forced to quit I was moody and irritable. I’m smoking the concentrate but I’m not even smoking the dry flower because I’m afraid I’m cough up a lung literally. I still ask God to help me but I’m not sure I want help I try convincing myself well it’s probably helping my epilepsy
I have used cannabis off and on for a long time. I had about a 10 stretch where I only used it a couple times. I do not have an addictive personality, I don’t drink alcohol at all and I don’t use anything else, prescribed or otherwise. So I feel like smoking weed for a few months and then stopping is not that big a deal but this time my withdrawal symptoms are pretty bad. It’s been 7 days since I ingested cannabis and I am an absolute nightmare to be around. Sleep is total crap, stomach feels like it’s full of butterflies. Shaking like I drank a pot of coffee only I don’t use caffeine either. Easily agitated. It’s been rough to say the least. I am a tough person so I’m handling it but it’s no joke and I can’t wait for it to stop.
Thank you for sharing your experience. It sounds like you're going through a really tough time right now, and it's great that you're reaching out for support. Even though you don't feel you have an addictive personality and have managed your use over the years, it's important to remember that cannabis withdrawal can still be challenging, especially if your body has developed a tolerance or dependency. The symptoms you're describing-like difficulty sleeping, anxiety, irritability, and physical discomfort-are common during cannabis withdrawal and can be quite intense, particularly in the first couple of weeks. You mentioned it's been seven days since you stopped using cannabis, which is a significant milestone. The good news is that while these symptoms are tough, they are typically temporary. Most people find that symptoms peak in the first week or so and then gradually start to improve. However, everyone's experience is different, and some symptoms, like sleep disturbances, might linger a bit longer. It's encouraging to hear that you're determined to handle it and that you're looking forward to feeling better. In the meantime, here are a few tips that might help ease the process: Stay Hydrated and Nourished: Eating balanced meals and staying hydrated can help your body cope with withdrawal. Exercise: Gentle physical activity, like walking or yoga, can help reduce stress and improve sleep. Relaxation Techniques: Practices like deep breathing, meditation, or mindfulness can help manage anxiety and agitation. Seek Support: If you find the symptoms overwhelming, it might be helpful to talk to a healthcare professional or counselor, especially if you continue to struggle after a few weeks. Remember, it's okay to ask for help, and there are professionals who can provide support tailored to your needs. You're doing something really positive for your health by stopping cannabis, even if it doesn't feel like it right now. Hang in there, and take it one day at a time-things will get better.
I think a long taper is probably the best way to go. Not sure if thats possible in a in patient setting. This is the best way to handle the insomnia. Count down to slmost nothing over a month before quitting. By that srage your endocannabinoid system has started to regain funtion. Doing this is almost impossible for an addict. If there was someway for a doctor to dole it out every evening during the taper, I feel this would be best. Then if needed all the other measures you guys are talking about. I really feel cannabis dependency is much greater than realised.
Thank you for sharing your insights on cannabis withdrawal. Tapering can indeed be an effective strategy, especially for managing symptoms like insomnia. Implementing such a tapering schedule in an inpatient setting can be challenging but not impossible with proper medical supervision. Involving healthcare professionals to oversee the tapering process and provide necessary support can significantly improve outcomes. Cannabis dependency is often underestimated, and your comments highlight the importance of a comprehensive approach to treatment.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! Tobacco can indeed alter the experience of using cannabis by interacting with its effects. While some people might find that it moderates and prolongs the high, it's important to note that combining substances can also introduce additional health risks. Always use caution and consider consulting with a healthcare professional about your substance use.
Diazepam is often used in withdrawal management to help ease symptoms and provide comfort, under medical supervision. It’s important to consult with healthcare professionals for the safest and most effective treatment options. If you have any concerns or questions, discussing them with your doctor can help you understand the best approach for your situation.
Ah, the old "blunt" truth about the cost of habits, eh? Here's a thought: maybe it's time to invest that money in something that doesn't go up in smoke... like a piggy bank shaped like a giant blunt, for irony's sake. Keep on cracking that addiction; your wallet will thank you by getting pleasantly plump!
Anxious insomniacs smoked weed to alleviated their anxiety and insomnia. Then when they quit they experience the withdrawal symptoms of anxiety and insomnia 🧐🧐🧐. Are you hearing yourselves??
@@adamkwiatek318they get better after awhile. You will not have good sleep instantly it could take time, if anything get medicine it’s better than weed Fr I’m trying to quit but I can’t it’s rly hard
Not true withdraw start in the 7th day and will last for 2 weeks not sleeping and cravings, and everything he said. On the 6th week the withdrawal will subside and you should start feeling a little bit better then the 2 week or 3rd week. And not true that will last weeks after 2 months or months. After 2 months you should start feeling better and on 13th to 14th week all thc will leave your body and you should feel great with a lot of energy and sleep and pass a drug test. I know because I smoked 11 oz plus no more then 12 oz’s for 129 days, almost 2.5 g a day including 2 grams of wax. This doctor did not have pothead but probably drug addicts, that’s why he said months. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 I’m a true POTHEAD and never used no other drugs but nicotine and maybe a little bit of alcohol one time. And don’t use cbd, thca , thc-8, thc-10 it will make it worse, the only way to feel great is by taking a break not to use THC-9 for 13 weeks to get back feeling great. I know because I’ve smoked for 15 years already. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Ignore this absurd comment ⬆️ 😂… I’m on day 7 of zero cannabis TODAY and I can tell you my withdrawal symptoms began day one and are still extremely intense but are becoming slowly more manageable as I get used to them. Insomnia, night sweats and very intense emotions are the biggest things I’ve noticed.

Couldn’t disagree more
Excellent information, thank you sirs.
Great video it’s should have more view’s please share this it’s so helpful
There is an entourage with tabacco which moderates the high from cannabis and prolongs its effects. It feels quite different to pure cannabis.

May be ironic, but it's true. Oftentimes the insomnia and anxiety induced by the withdrawal is greater than before using cannabis.
Hear yourself I’ve experienced horrible withdrawals so it’s true
@@adamkwiatek318 this guy clearly does not get it but to say it’s not true or anything else is misleading information
@@lucyyaffe7997 Yup, it's 100% true. Started smoking to help with sleeping issues and they only got worse after I stopped lol
@@adamkwiatek318they get better after awhile. You will not have good sleep instantly it could take time, if anything get medicine it’s better than weed Fr I’m trying to quit but I can’t it’s rly hard
Stop lying about cannabis.
It's not a lie!
It's really not a lie. Everytime I go a on long run with weed and I try to stop, I experience all of these symptoms.
