Marijuana withdrawals? I'm confused?!


Question: Marijuana withdrawals? I'm confused?
After smoking between 8 and 9 bags in about 35 days I went cold turkey due to a plane trip. I feel strange, my arm pits seem unusually productive, and my eyes are not glazed/glossy, but they do have real red color that does not look appropriate for being sober. Can anyone relate or does anyone know what I am sayin? In the past I have gone cold turkey and couldn't sleep, it was annoying.. After taking a warm shower, though, I would feel normal for 20-60 minutes.

Thank you for your input! Any answer is appreciated

I've never heard of that happening when going cold turkey. It's possible that you have a medical condition that you are unaware of. One of my friends thought that he was psychologically addicted to cannabis, if he wasn't high he would feel sad, agitated, anxious and he couldn't sleep (while having no actual cravings for cannabis). It turned out that he actually had depression, he didn't realize because his depression symptoms were gone while he was high. He thought that his depression symptoms were cannabis withdrawal, maybe you have the same problem with some other medical condition, idk im stoned.



That's what we call a psychological dependence. You have become mentally addicted to pot, and adjusted your body to smoking all the time. Your body isn't used to being sober and your having withdrawals because of that. ANYTHING can give you a psychological dependence. Don't let anyone tell you you can't get addicted to pot, you can't get physically addicted, but being psychologically addicted can be just as bad.

@algaheeri- your right, but you can get psychologicly dependant on anything. shopping, cleaning, biting your nails, even eating toilet paper or sleeping with your blowdryer.

I never had a problem goin cold turkey so im not sure what your goin through.
