Lately i've been experiencing dizziness, a light cough, 2 days of diarreha, headaches, cold chills, body aches, sometimes i feel like i can't focus my eyes and i become lightheaded, my ears and eyes were also sensitive to light and sound, but i havent really had a fever, the highest it became so far was 99.1. I recently quit smoking marijuana and i'm about 8 days clean , I only smoked for about 8-9 months and not everday and when i did smoke it was i'd consider moderate usage. It's kind of worrying me with this feeling of dizziness and occasionally my chest area will feel kind of tight and i'll feel like i'm short of breath. I'm only 22 years old, is there a nasty flu going around or could it be something else, is the dizziness and hard time focusing my eyes from withdrawl of marijuana? I've never really considered myself a big time user as i only smoked for under a year.

I'm 23 yrs. old and having been experiencing the same symptoms as mentioned by quicksilver for about a month now. Sometimes I feel OK/Great but it never lasts for very long at all.

The only thing that I have read that makes even a little sense is depression. I don't feel depressed, but Marijuana can mess up your dopamine which is a factor.

I don't know what is going on, but I think the anxiety of not knowing makes the problem even worse. I do know that I don't feel good and haven't felt like myself for a while now.

To the 15 year old - tell your mom you are sick - especially if it's making you depressed OK? Please do this. You need someone to look you over.

When ever you quit smoking your lungs start to purge all the toxins out. You may cough up phlegm, find the need to inhale deeply, feel like your lungs are tight etc. Just my personal experience and what I've read. The dizziness may just be a "withdrawal" symptom.

"Sneaky weed addiction came out of nowhere"

Here is my alternative DIY first aid kit to help with withdrawls from weed:

Valerian drops in water if you take a good dose on an empty stomach it helps with the restless feelings, it's natures valium.

Ginseng for energy it is way better than caffeine as it does'nt give you that edgy energy that keeps you awake at night.

Vitamin B helps with the blues, eat lots of B rich foods brown rice helps me with the nausea it's hard to get in but worth it!!!

A cold shower or a dip in the sea works for me, at least it is a moment free from the manic racing thoughts

St.Johns Wort and Camomille tea for the blues

Sea salt from the health store or a good rock sea salt from the supermarket put a decent amount like a half a bag in a hot bath it acts as a poltice and draws the toxins out alot quicker.

Turkish baths help me more than the sauna for getting the chest cleared quicker plus it helps knock you out for sleeping.

Accupunture, Reiki, Aromatherapy massage etc. they all help with centering you and shifting all the crap that's in your system.

Inhaling from a couple of eucalyptus drops in a basin of hot water with a towl over your head for the tension headaches is a good lift.

Prayer or positive affirmations whatever your belief for the whole "it's all s*@!, whats the point" thinking that goes along with quitting,

Best of luck to everyone trying to find acceptance

As I said these things work for me although herbal always consult someone before taking anything

The whole reason I responded with that last mail was to say that an Aloe Vera tonic from the health store helped me with the stomach cramps as does putting a stick of cinnamnon in boiling water just keep toping it up with hot water through out the day. Gets you sweating but if you can handle that it's worth it.

the symptoms that have been described seem to me to be mild depression. If it lasts for longer than 3 mths then it is considered a major depressive state and you should go see a Dr. HOWEVER, if you do some simple things, you ca get thru it.

1- remember to calm yourself down, YOURE NOT DIEING ok. Realize that the pain you feel is signals interpreted by your brain and you can stop this pain, by realizing this is depression.

2-get atleast 7 or 8 hrs of sleep a night. By getting yourself on a steady sleep pattern, your will enable yourbrain to start to even itself out.

3- if all else fails...start yourself on some OTC antidepressants. ... like St Johns Wort. This is a simple way to aid your body an mind in healing itself.

eventually you will feel better and you wont feel these pains as often. This is what people who have been officially diagnosed with Depression have to deal with all their lives. You need to try and live everyday helping your body/mind heal itself
