When I woke up today, I felt great. After quitting marijuana for 6 days, my morning energy and mindset is improving. My mind is much clearer than a week ago! I used to smoke weed primarily at night, and it is almost a guarantee that I would fall asleep stoned or burnt out…..That seems to carry over into a mediocre sleep and a tough wakeup in the morning. My marijuana hangovers rob me of energy and a positive attitude in the morning. Sometimes my eyes looked stony, even if it had been hours.
When I take in a full breath, the top of my lungs hurt a little bit, I don’t know if that is from quitting pot, being more aware of my body, or from the exercise I have been doing in the past couple of days. Maybe they are being cleaned out.
Starting a couple of days ago, I was experiencing significant anxiety and nervousness…This hasn’t happened to me before when trying to end my marijuana addiction. I have had a very stressed out 2 weeks, so I think the marijuana withdrawal played a small role in this overall mental state.
I haven’t had any major cravings yet. In my case, those don’t start for a little while. I have stayed away from the pubs and thus the party. It is a lot easier to quit when you aren’t surrounded by it.

I feel like that and i’ve only smoked like only this 4:20 weekend. I feel like shit from this sunday blazed out till now and it’s tuesday.
I think it is an addiction, I noticed that my mind is sub-consciously attached to the feeling of the high and wants more.
It’s not the exercise homie, I work out alot: 200lbs 5ft. 9in.
and running machine until i tried pot a couple of days ago, it has made me wake up with horrible hangovers and i gotta go to school all fucked up:/ if you get any better tell me how the fuck did you do it?
Your “marijuana hangover” is probably because you haven’t been getting enough sleep, Try sleeping in an extra hour and find out how much sleep your body seems to find necessary. And personally i believe your marijuana “addiction” is a fixation you have. 1 in 20 regular smokers is actually addicted and the symptoms are typically mild and never physical.
Although i don’t know your situation i don’t believe Your anxiety was brought on because of quitting marijuana. I once thought that my anxiety was brought on by marijuana but the truth is that anxiety is completely controlled by yourself. You’re fixating on sensations and feelings (ex: your lungs) that are completely harmless and cannot hurt you.
I would suggest finding a good hobby or something you can enjoy by yourself outside of your living arrangements. For me it was cycling and wood work.
Hope I could help.
Great site. Im trying to quit a 3rd time in last 5 yrs and have been puffing every day for 18yrs. Anyway, was wondering if you get terrible migrane like headaches, cold sweat, sweaty palms and greasy hair like me.
what i find is while quitting is that i start to dream again very intensely. when i first quit some 7 years ago,i had very strange dreams-i saw a therapist but he didnt know what was wrong.today i laugh when i look back but back then i really thought i was losing it. i had panic attacks etc.overall its like saying bye for now, old faithful friend-you were there when i broke up, you were there when the others were out drinking , you were there when i watched a movie,you were there when i wanted to be alone, you were there when i didnt want to go out,you took care of me-most of you wont disagree but those who have never experienced it wont understand…anyways good luck to all who are wanting to quit pot.
