Extreme Anxiety while Quitting Marijuana
    #7251198 - 08/02/07 12:09 PM (16 years, 5 months ago)

So, I've been trying to stop smoking weed, I'm working on weening myself off of it because every time I try do stop, I get intense anxiety- I feel sick, dizzy, depressed and extremely distressed- it's like I can't control all the thoughts in my head and I just feel terrible. I've had this extreme anxiety ever since a bad mushroom trip and I believe it's being intensified by me trying to stop smoking pot...Does anybody Else experience this? Has anybody ever had a really bad trip which left them with anxiety? Has anybody Else experienced this type of anxiety during cannabis withdraws?


I really need help...Teotz

damn, you must be an all day smoker. well, I'm sure the shrooming flashbacks don't help. Anyway, look at it like this, try watching your breath, it helps, also exercise helps. Also, smoke regs once a week dude, you gotta let your brain drain out.
peace

maybe you just happen to be sick at the same time your quitting smoking. i've never heard of withdrawel for weed before.

but if its that bad, i'd go with smoking less and less each day. map it out sort of. you know those pill boxes where you put in the pills you need for each day over the course of a week? do something like that, but map it out over 2 weeks or more. make sure you dont break this either or else all progress will be lost. like smoke a gram the first day, then do .9 grams the next, then .8, then .7 then . 6 then .5 etc... obviously you can do this at your own pace and dosage, but make sure its consistent, and make sure you dont EVER EVER say "ill smoke more just for today." if you can get a friend to guilt you really badly into stopping as well. that seems to help a lot of people.

you could get some salvia and try that whenever you are feeling the urge to smoke weed as well. i've heard that works pretty well. or just buy some acid and do that a lot until this whole thing blows over. its up to you, just make sure it works for you. sincerely good luck man. :thumbup:

I'm pretty sure that this is entirely psychosomatic. I usually smoke all day long every day but there are definitely days that I don't have the opportunity to smoke. I've never gotten "withdrawals" from cannabis, though. I can understand the slight loss of appetite, as you won't be high as a kite wolfing down food if you quit smoking, but that should go away within a few days. The anxiety, in my opinion, is probably caused by your desire to get high. You're getting anxious to get high because you want to, but you can't and so it gives you a strange anxiety.

I'm making a herbal hash and doing just that with it...

I've smoked every morning and every night...For 3 years, so ya it's bad.

My herbal hash contains-

Lactuca V. "lettuce opium"
Blue Lotus Petals (Nelumbo Nucifera)
Cannabis Pipe Resin (from my bubbler)
Quality Cannabis
Wild Dagga (Leonotis Leonurus) 25x Resin


The herbal hash is smoked on Red poppy petals (Papaver rhoeas) and/or Blue lotus petals from my bubbler, I'm using the herbal hash no more than 3 times a week, My Girlfriend is helping me, she's a very sweet girl.

I also use Valerian and melatonin to get to sleep and help relieve anxiety... I take them every night.

A drink a blend of black tea, yerba mate and rooibos every morning, to help with the detox and wake me up (Coffee gives me EXTREME anxiety)

Note- I haven't started using all this because my package has not arrived, but should be here soon.

Do you guys think I'll feel better in a few weeks? Once my herbal hash runs out...that's it! That's all the weed for me for a loooong time. Maybe 6-9 months, it depends on how good I do in school, But god, I will never get like this again, anybody who smokes moderately now that is reading this PLEASE PLEASE don't get like me, it's terrible, people shouldn't smoke more than once every 7 days, even that is a little much...but every morning and night is ridiculous, and makes you feel like COMPLETE shit 24/7!

What the fuck are you smoking?

How about trying to smoke JUST weed and not that hodgepodge of shit?

Millions of us smoke weed everyday with no side effects. Maybe it some other crazy shit you are drinking or smoking?

I always get withdrawals from pot after smoking for a few months for breakfast lunch and tea. I get a feeling that I want to cry and that something is just not right and I feel cold and get hot flushes loose my appetite and get generally grumpy.

It lasts only about 48 hours, I always expect it. It's during that time that I really really want to go out and get some more. After that I'm fine.

Try to keep busy or find something to do that really grabs your attention and stay off it for a few weeks. You'll feel much better and then next time you smoke it will blow your socks off.

i dunno everyone reacts differently to different things, i can certainly understand how some one would go through some sort of withdrawel symptoms if they smoked twice a day for a few years. you can get addicted to anything, it doesnt matter what it is. just not physically addicted to anything. anxiety is more of a mental thing, so i can definately see where you're coming from.

i'll feel like crap after some trips. mostly after an acid trip thought. i often times feel very refreshed the morning after a mushroom trip. i can get very little sleep after a mushroom trip and still feel refreshed. acid trips however, take a lot out of me in emotional terms and physical terms, so i need a big nap after i trip on it.

I'm sooo fucking scared of shrooms and Aya' now...

But I'm always been crazy scared about doing Aya' and Iboga

Both which are two things I want to experience one day (no matter if i like it or not)

I think I'll be able to do shrooms again in a few years.

I've got a dose of cactus I'm planning on doing after this whole weed bullshit is over.

Cactus has always made me sooooo happy, and it's soo clean and refreshing.

You are lucky it is only cannabis, I'm going through a slight opium withdrawal right now.

I'm baking some brownies though, so that should help! :discodance:

I will just be soo glad when I have a clear mind

Cannabis and etheogens are such wonderful plants...I'll be glad when I can enjoy them again...I want to smoke cannabis 2-3 times a month once I've had it out of my system for 6+ months. I will do cactus sometime (whenever I feel it calling) I will continue using entheogens in the future if I have a good experience with cactus.

you guys are fucking insane. if you smoke nearly everyday and stop, you will get cannabis withdrawls. I haven't smoked in about a week and I feel bored, apathetic, a little depressed, and can't sleep well at all. I'm not blaming it all on it, but its definitely a part of it.

Get outside so some work, keep busy. I smoke weed everyday... sometimes all day. and i have never had withdrawals of any kind. Stopping for up to a month at times because of work. keep your mind off it, its just a simple plant with simple effect. Dont try to replace it with anything, as thats not really accomplishing anything beneficial is it.
If you feel the fear of psychedelics just take some small doses to reflect of previous experiences. They're not all bad. imo iv never had a "bad trip" tho, just uncomfortabl moments.

Yeah man, your issues aren't with the cannabis.

You need to work out this trip. Don't be scared of diving in. All of the issues are rooted in this bad trip. Mushrooms are a sacred teacher for exactly this reason.. Sit and focus on the bad.. confront yourself as obviously you're trying to block it out with the heavy cannabis use.. Confront your anxiety man :smile:

I too had extreme anxiety when quitting. I was a daily pothead hanging out with dealers who only had the best of the best getting blowed out of my mind. Then the cops interrupted my weed smoking so i have to stop for a while. When i starting experiencing the anxiety i just went to my doc and got a hefty bottle of klonopin which helps greatly and if that doesnt work valium or xanax will always do the trick my friend. But i sure as hell cant wait till i can smoke again im going to buy a personal ounce and blow that bitch and get sky high.

I'm not taking that bullshit, that will make it worse when i try to come off of those pills...

I want NO drugs in me for awhile, I want a clear head, But I'm glad other people have experienced this too, I thought my bad shroom trip had triggered some mental disorder at first, but now I know I am ok, And it's alot easier to deal with it.
