The thing I don't know how to fix is my inability to sleep when I am not smoking. Granted I have only quit for 24 hours, but the not sleeping is driving me crazy. I may as well be smoking crack. 
If anyone has any ideas on how to sleep or how long this will last, I would greatly appreciate. It is 1:30 in the morning, and I have been laying there for 5 hours unable to sleep.
I too agree that smoking weed is AWESOME, but when you live in a small town like I do you can't find many people that you can trust to get it from. Quite frankly I am only quitting because I am sick of dealing with people trying to get some. It is too stressful and it makes me TOO ANGRY.
Maybe I should say screw it and get BLAZED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
One thing that a pysciatrist suggested for me to use to help me sleep is, believe or not, Gravol. It has a seditive effect. I hope it works for you |

It's not gonna kill you, and I don't think I've ever heard of a marijuana addict robbing anyone to get weed, but for us heavy chronic smokers, physical marijuana withdrawal is real. Believe me, I have been there before and am there right now. The night sweats are very real, as are the anxiety and depressed mood. I am a 52-yo professional who smoked daily for fifteen years after college, then stopped for more than ten years. A few years ago, I sampled the newer high=potency bud and loved it. So much that I soon was smoking every day again, for the past five years. I still enjoy it, but I play music and it starting to get in the way of my singing. So I am stopping.
My best suggestions? 1) be thankful it's just weed--other drugs including tobacco are much harder on the body and much much harder to quit. 2) I know that doesn't seem true right now while you are depressed; for the first week, nothing will be much fun, but do it anyway--especially exercise like running, walking, and yoga. A daily sauna at my health club seems to help a bit as well. 3) take a good multivitamin. and supplements like l-theranine and extra B vitamins. 4) hang in there for that first week or two, and your head will clear, and your body will feel better. I am just five days in and am amazed at how much freer my breathing feels. My body feels lighter too, without that heavy lethargy pot imposes after its delightlful buzz. Just have faith that your body is healing the damage we have done, and like, when you're sick, you have to feel a little worse for a time to get better.
I still love weed in the same way I love my ex-wife and mother of my beautiful children. But just because I love it doesn't mean we can live together in a healthy way on a daily basis! |
