HELP Feel weird after quitting weed

After being a heavy cannabis smoker for the past 2 years, I decided to take a break September of 2014. At the beginning of November I felt like something was wrong with me, so I decided to take a trip to the doctors. My head hurt at the time and I felt rather dull and sluggish, despite exercising daily and getting adequate sleep. When the doctor asked me for my symptoms I told her the aforementioned ones as well as tingling fingers and jaw pain. She then asked me some simple questions but for some strange reason I completely went into Lala land and started talking gibberish. I didn’t know how to pronounce 'doctor', I didn’t even know the date of my birthday, which was in a few days.
The doctor immediately thought I had Lyme Disease or some kind of meningitis because of Lyme. As a child I was tested for Lyme on two occasions. The first test came back negative but the second test I was slightly positive in one area but apparently it was just a false-positive. I’ve always had joint problems and my mother who had Lyme disease a few years ago had the exact symptoms I had. Jaw Pain, dullness, trouble thinking, etc. I took some Doxi. for several weeks, just in case and when my tests came back for the third time I was negative.
Now it has been several months and I have this black hole like pain on the left/top side of my head, in a very small area. Its does not feel like a migraine nor a pressure head ache. I went back to the doctors recently, and she told me that I had anxiety. Which, I didm’t believe because I’m not depressed and I only slightly get anxious.
I am just worried man. I don't even know how to explain it. I also can not concentrate anymore no matte dhow hard I try.
Could this be related to depersonalization? Or is this Lyme and all my tests have been false negative?

i dont know man, im no doctor, but this sounds really weird 
Maybe start smoking weed and again, occassionally, and see if your symptoms go away 
Maybe the weed was actually treating something.

I just really want to quit smoking though. I promised myself I wound’t smoke, so I’m going to keep that promise.
When I smoked, I did at times have panic attacks and for some reason always tripped, even more so then mushrooms, which I’ve taken several times. Weird, I know.
Do you think CBD oil or strains very low in THC will help? I hear CBD helps anxiety, while THC can sometimes exaggerate feelings of anxiousness. I might be completely wrong though.

if the doctor isn't worried and you aren't experiencing anything too serious it could just be psychosomatic. You might be having too much anxiety about lyme disease and putting a lot of focus on possible symptoms that causes you to think the worst. Don't start smoking weed or doing drugs to treat this. just do things that keep your mind busy, exercise, and try to get into a habit of meditating

Not to make you worry or anything but i have read studies about cannabis altering certain parts of the brain. Specifically the amydgala and hippocampus. The amydgala is responcible for fear and flight or fight responce (i believe).
I used to always be super confident smoked weed for 7 years straigh always a real dunctional smoker never get paranoid ect.. then had a bad acid trip and ever since weed gives me bad anxiety and paranoia...
But i smoke on.

I noticed after smoking for about a week straight, When I got high I'd feel sober brained but my body would feel high. It would get rid of these slight stress headaches I've been having. After stopping I don't have them anymore, so thats great!

Yes, I have been eating healthier. No more fast food and only small amounts of red meat.
I eat Quinoa, flax seed everyday and lots of vegetables.

I also had a pretty bad trip and went in and out of consciousness. Not sure if that was the cause, but I feel very dull and dumb. Like I’m not able to think clearly and on the left side of my prefrontal lobe I have this odd black hole like headache. If that makes any sense.
I’ll try to not think about it and preoccupy myself with skiing or something.

Yeah i dont blame it all on the drugs though thats only portion of it.
Like others have mentioned living a healthy lifestyle helps cure up alot of things.
Thats odd how you describe the black hole feeling in your head. I relate to that in that i get some horrible headaches from constantly clenching my jaw and it drives me insane! I notice the more i concentrate on it the more i do it though.
But always keep in mind, the mind is a very powerful thing. And if you go thru life thinking "im stupid" then your always gonna feel pretty stupid no matter what. Its like psychosomatic i believe is the term.
I think, therefore i am.....

@ OP I can only give you one advice. Don't let the doctors to prescribe you any benzos or other anti depressants. They will mess you up.

Lyme or another tick borne disease was my first thought, see my sig. The tests are nowhere near 100% accurate, and a single course of antibiotics is not 100% effective. Do not ignore those symptoms, find a Lyme literate medical doctor in your area for treatment.

I would never take any of that shit, ever.
I worked with someone who had a full spastic overdoes on a serotonin reuptake inhibiter drug. The scariest thing I have ever seen.
