On 30+ hours now without Pot. I smoke because it helps heal my cankers. Since I was a little kid I would get outbreaks of cankers in my mouth, all through out middle school to high school. I suffered with cankers!....I started smoking pot after highschool and it took me a while to notice but it helped my cankers heal faster and rarely return....Weed has helped my life in so many ways, calms my bad temper down, keeps me interested in life and keeps the cankers (not a cold sore) from happening. Cankers hurt a lot, esp when they appear near back of throat or roof of mouth or on your tounge, it makes everything terrible!....Weed instantly soothes my mouth and the cankers go 'numb' almost and after 24hours they start to heal and go away. Before they would linger for weeks and weeks and never heal. I believe I lack a saliva chemical that the mouth uses to heal small cuts that happen when eating, since I lack that chemical any microscopic cut in my mouth becomes a canker...I need to stop smoking pot because I need to save money!!! I would smoke 4-5 bowls per day and the occasional joint in the week. But the habit of packing the bowl, thinking about buying the smoke, hitting up the dude to buy smoke, then going and picking up, the routine just gets to me....I am sweating like crazy. The sweat starts after 12+hours of no smoke, lastnight I had some fun dreams, sweating all night, I mustve of woke up a dozen times....I go from Hot to COLD to HOT to COLD, fun times!...I just want to see how long it takes for the cankers to return or if they do at all. My diet and mental health (positivity and happiness and no negative sh*t) have really improved my life, (honesty and being HONEST with my SELF) DONT DENY ANYTHING, ADMIT you have a problem dont lie to your self bros....its bad so bad for your life...My mental state now is I can do this and I will be fine,...Time Passes, theres so much in the world to take your mind off the smoke...i think theres kids in this world who live and die everyday who never even get to SMELL the KUSH, I love MJ, shes the best medicine. But with anything you need to keep it in check or it will Own You.

Thanks for sharing guys. Here's my story:
I'll give you some background as I think it's relevant. So I'm a 26 yo woman who has been smoking since about 20. At first just at night, then night and weekends and then almost all day everyday when I wasn't working. I've always been a bit prone to depression as I'm a high functioning person, very switched on, always asking questions and analysing the world/our capitalist/consumerist society (think a female version of the Mr Robot character minus the social anxiety, morphine addiction and hacking skills - that's me to a T) and i have had the misfortune to have gone through numerous incompetent/a hole bosses and placed much trust and expended much kindness in people unworthy of i (just like many, many people out there - I know I'm not unique in this respect, but ya know background).

So anyway, I don't smoke cigarettes (just mull up in the bong with pot if I don't have natural herbal stuff to use) and hate alcohol. I will begrudgingly drink a bit at a function simply to avoid the judgement from Australian bogans. Despite using tobacco here and there in the pot I am not addicted to it and actually still detest it's taste/smell.

So between 20 and about 24 my weight skyrocketed to 85 kilos. I'm 164cms. I had an epiphany one evening and my mentality shifted. I had to tackle the weight first before I could move onto dealing with the pot. I quite being a fatty cold turkey by exercising at least an hour a day everyday and totally 180'd my lifestyle, eating habits. Few carbs and a plethora of Thai food, home made. So I kept smoking pot during all this, every day still pot, but I waited until I had done all my work for the day. I dropped the weight and now am toned, 53 kilos (just so light as my boobs literally disappeared, now they're empty granny sacks, (too much info lol) but I'm getting new ones soon as a reward for my hard work. i even have a slight six pack, more an outline, but it's there (I don't want anymore muscle definition though as I'm not a fan of muscly chicks. I'm at the height if my fitness now, better even than when I was a kid. But...

After I dropped the weight and could tone down my exercise hours I went back to smoking almost an ounce a week. It was doable as I got it for around the price of a quarter. Also my ahole boss was to blame, gave my promotion which I was going above and beyond for (putting in an unpaid extra 3 or more hours each week while they pay me pennies as an online content writer/marketer) to some noob kid still at university whom I suspect must be related to one of the bosses as the ignoramus gave me a wet fish handshake, couldn't look me in the eyes and was blatantly talking himself up and talking our of his arse. No way he would have made it through an interview with that approach.

Sidetracked again... Ok so that's why I Saud "f it" and started smoking so much again. But as I'm no id**t, I realised this is silly and I'm only shooting myself in the foot. If nothing else, it's just too expensive!!

So now I'm on quit day number 18, almost three weeks off. I'm doing a-ok aside from horrendous night sweats. Takes forever to get to sleep and then I sleep maybe 4-5 hours before waking up drenched in sweat. No dreams yet. My sweat doesn't stink at all. I suspect this is because I've treated my body as a temple (aside from the pot) for the last three years and barely eat anything naughty. Mostly veggies, fruit and a few carbs. When I was fat I sweated a lot and freaked badly, now nothing. No sweats during th day, just the night sweats. I have practically no hunger and am full after a few bites. Still at almost week 3 off. Some days I feel like I can bite a person's head off if they so much as look at me sideways, and others I'm fine.

I should definitely mention that I'm actually on holiday overseas atm. I quit the day I left. I'm in Switzerland for 4 weeks visiting family and took this as the perfect opportunity to quite. Luckily, or unluckily I got knocked down with a cold a few days after arriving so now all my night sweats, lack of appetite, mood swings, bad sleeping patterns etc all look to my relatives as just symptoms part of my cold so that's kinda good for me. As I'm so busy here seeing people I haven't been craving any pot at all and feel fine apart from the aforementioned withdrawals.

I also seem to be toning up more despite not doing any exercise while I'm here. I'm definitely eating less, but at home I exercise a lot and eat less and well and haven't been able to tone my butt and thighs no matter what I do, yet now these parts are toning while I'm doing nothing.
Does anyone know if this has something to do with the tux attached to the fat cells? Could these be the last remants of my obese fatness which had tux attached from years ago and now due to the lack of it they are finally detaching and allowing these areas to tone. Would love an answer if anyone knows.

So that's my story up until now.

THC not Tux - stupid autocorrect

Every ones body reacts differently while withdrawing but it is re-adjusting your metabolism for around the first 6 weeks that is why youre not as hungry and not eating as much because your body is getting used to being sober again. Yeah its pretty common to burn fat while the THC leaves your system it would make sense since I dont have much fat on my body and can get it out of my system in less than two weeks as a daily smoker

I had to stop smoking when i wanted to get pregnant. I would sweat all day long everyday! I would smell so bad I had to put deodorant all day. I started smoking again years later and the problem was gone. Now that I'm not smoking again I sweat all day!! I could be doing nothing a just sweat. The smell is what's bothering me. I am having to put on deodorant all day again. I'm so worried all day at work that everyone can smell me.

I've been smoking pops for 8 years (sadly everyday) and I'm just quitting (cold turkey) now this is day 3, worst time ever i want a pop so bad! basically as soon as you quit your lungs start cleaning themselves be prepared to cough up some black sh*t also if you are as bad as me be ready to get the shakes and chills and lack of sleep! only reason I'm quitting is because of coughing up blood in the morning. As much as i love them stop when you can!

I have to quit a few times a year to pass a piss test for work ... first 7 days my feet and hands sweat like a mother f****r and im constantly cold .. drink 5 - 12 beers a day and you wont even notice it a bit lol
Seriously tho its normal ... shouldnt last more then a month but physical activity definitely shortens the shitty feeling you get after quitting

I've been smoking pot for about 8 months and I stopped about 4 days ago, I went to the doctors about my excessive sweating and they said it's the thc flushing out of the body nothing you can do about it except from letting come out so I've been doing exercise and it helps I feel much better now.

Nice im not the only one either. We are all together in this. I stopped smoking weed , drinking and smoking cigarettes and the amount of sweat coming from my armpits it utterly ridiculous. Im thinking I may want to drink extra water to replace it . Thats how much im sweating along with being cold while it happening. So its like im having cold sweats and then the sweat is giving me chills goosebumps and hard nips lol. On the contrary I do feel amazing and extremely clear headed, been learning a ton, working out and more. Im so happy to not be attached to marijuana alcohol and smoking anymore. I was doing all three since I was sixteen(8 years.
