Marijuana detox symptoms is something people don’t really like to talk about very much. I guess the reason for that might be that if people knew what a pot smoker goes through when he tries to quit, no one would actually decide to do it.
I mean, if you think about it, smoking is actually kind of nice. You get to experience something you’ve never felt before and you really get to see the world a little differently. Granted, you see it different because you’re on drugs, but still, everything does look different.
So, what are those symptoms? Let me talk to you about a few.
1. You sweat madly.
That’s the first thing you’ll notice when you get through detox. You really won’t be able to stop sweating. I don’t just mean a regular hot-day type of sweating. I mean the wake-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night-all-soaked kind of sweating. I still remember when it first happened to me. Fortunately, I am clean now, but when I first got the sweats, I really thought there is something very wrong with me. Fortunately they always go away after some time.
2. Would you like to stay up all night?
Well, you will now. That’s one of the marijuana detox symptoms that almost everyone will suffer from. I mean, just think about it. Your body wants to smoke, your mind wants to smoke, but you force it on them and tell them that you won’t. I wouldn’t necessarily expect to sleep like a baby if I were you.
3. You, you, you.
Well, don’t feel too alarmed when you realize that you can’t stop thinking about yourself in this tough time. I mean, you’ll want to smoke and that’s all you’ll be able to think about. You’ll be concerned with how YOU feel, what YOU do and what YOU need to do to get through this. It might be that you’ll yell at someone for no reason only because you’ll be very upset. That’s perfectly normal. Just let them know beforehand that a thing like that might take place so that they are more prepared for it.
4. Loneliness.
That’s another one of those marijuana detox symptoms that no one really likes or talks about much. You’ll probably get really introvert and won’t have a desire to talk to anyone at all. That will lead to loneliness and in some cases self pity or even depression. If you know yourself enough to know that you might have suicidal thoughts, then go and get some professional help. Otherwise, this will pass and you’ll be fine.
Those are the few marijuana detox symptoms I wanted to tell you about. They will all pass and you won’t remember them soon. For now, just hang in there.

As much of a pro-cannabis person as I am, it does affect everybody differently. Some are more prone to addiction than others, and, unfortunately, this wonderful plant is not for everybody.
For those who do have issues, I am glad that there is a reference for them to find the treatment that they need.
The truth is, everyone needs to stop blaming drugs for addiction. Sure some drugs carry higher withdrawel symptoms then others, but addiction is not a disease, its simply a symptom of underlying causes. You can attend all the AA meetings you want, and they will keep you in fear your entire life of relapse as well as telling you that you have a disease. I drank over 1 liter of 80 proof liquor every day for almost 12 years, i then quit without a single bit of withdrawel, i honestly do not know what alchohol withdrawel feels like. During the last year of my alchohol abuse i was addicted to cocaine, i gave that up too without any problem. I then got hooked on pain killers thanks to my doctor, i lost more years of my life, and the withdrawels were incredible, withdrawel is not the hard part tho, oh no, i went threw withdrawel twice a week for an entire year, it got easy. The hard part is afterwards when your brain chemistry tries to get back to normal, its been a long time and im still screwed. ADDICTION IS A SYMPTOM, to cure this symptom you have to cure the underlying cause, until then you will always remain addicted and in fear of relapse. All drugs when quit can cause severe anxiety, and i will tell you from experience, the anxiety from weed withdrawel is about 1/100th of that from opiates, but it is still no joke. However, cigarettes have been harder for me to quit then heroin, and alchohol is basically what ruined my brain and my life…and they are both completely legal and available to anyone of any age as long as there is a scumbag and you are willing to ask.
Another detox sympton is peeing a lot. Especially at night. The substance has to leave the body so it is good to drink a lot of water or herbal teas so it can go easily.
anybody ever deal with nausea as a symptom? i have been smoking for years. lots of years. off and on since 19 and am now in my late 30′s. i quit cold turkey and am feeling nauseated. i know herb is a good cover for nausea symptoms….as they recommend it for nausea…..but can quitting cause some of it?
i need to know if this will give u high blood pressure when you quit my son has quit but he still has a long way to go any advice would help thank you
Hi folks
I`m actually going trhough the detox path. It`s being hard, but also it`s being good! I`m not really sleeping well, but I feel everyday a better sensation, kind off leaving a heavy load over my back.
My wife and daughter are very helping me a lot, making me feel each time more confident and strong to fight against the adiction.
The worst sympton I
The worst sympton I`m handling now is the “vaccum sensation” in my head, but it`s getting better each day. No headaches, no sweating a lot, no loss of sleep, but the sensation of empty mind.
I fight against my stm loss, getting better slowly, but progressively getting better!
Sincerelly

I am on DAY 2 of not smoking pot after 3 heavy years of Kush.
I have failed all previous attempts to quit due to my withdrawal
Symptoms. I knoW what to expect now and I tell my self ahead of time
To refuse the temptation when I feel a trigger cumming along
Last night I went threw insomnia..this morning I awoke sweating..
Its all most lunch time and I’m feeling anxious to call my connect..
Will I get threw day 2..find out..
The feeling of complete agitation.angry at everyone.less motivated, withdrawn,loss of many communication skills.It has come to A point that smoking weed has, put a toll onour family financialy. but I have been smoking since 14.I am now pushing 40.But I hafto quit. wish me luck.
its taken me two weeks to work up the nerve to quit, I have’nt gone more than four days without out bud since I was 18 now that im 28, I feel that its my time to quit. For me it was too many reasons to list thats why I was so glad to find a website that was so informative. I found this site: http://www.nevdgp.org.au/info/std_misc/MarijuanaQuit.html, which then led me here. Its only my third day but I feel that im already on my way. I first had to get rid of all my smoking accessories (bongs trays even lighters) then I told most of my friends that i quit I think that helped me the most. Now im just finding ways to occupy my time, so far gaming has helped plus I keep telling myself “I dont need bud anymore”. I smoked cigaretts for seven years before I decided to quit, its been two years now and I dont even think about it, that experience has helped me to make this next big step. It’s going to be hard but I feel confident that I can quit.
I wish everybody the best of luck and I hope that ya’ll will quit too.
Ya, I’ve been a daily heavy smoker since the the age of 16 I’m now almost 39 years old. Pot is the drug of my choice… I perodically have done blow, LCD, Extacy, and consumed 3-6 beers each day. However I can leave it all except for the weed. About five years ago I started have seizures somewhat out if the blue. I’ve have some head injuries in my life but the reason for the seizures were not apparent to my doctors? I was put on a couple of different seizure medications to try and control breakthrus as well as some anti anxiety medication. I was initiially told that that the weed was not my problem, I was asked hard drugs or excessive drinking abuse which was not an issue.
After about eight more years and I had a major seizure spaced out about a year and a half apart. One Friday night I went to bed and did not wake up until Wenesday morning, IN A HOSPITAL!!! I was told that the weed was matabolising my siezure medication. I was basically told to stop smoking or I was going to die. I’m pissed I miss my best friend and want things back to normal. This F&%$@!* SUCKS! I could care less about the beer and all the other shit…
What should I do??? Mike Pot Head
Hello All
I would like to share my feelings of withdrawal with some entity out there cause I got no one right now to express my self to. I have be off weed for 3 weeks after 23 years of it in my system. I am feeling pretty much fine and functioning pretty good most of the time except for a few temper tantrums, like some one would say some thing sarcastic and then I would just take it wrong and start flipping out and looking to punch the wall or slam a chair against the floor or slam a door then I would calm down and come to my senses.
Like I was joking with my Mom of all people and said I was going to go on American idol and she said as what a scarecrow you don’t have talent so I went down stairs in my apartment a started bashing my hand against the wall and calling here a fat fucker I am usually very loving to her but these tantrums come and go. When I used to feel them I used to toke a joint and relax and not act up.
I work full time and at work I am functioning just fine not being able to toke up I’m actually on point. I am sleeping good but I am craving it more and more as the weeks go on, its been 3 weeks. I feel like calling it quits and buying a half with my next check, but I want to buy a new msi touch screen computer the one with the pine trail processor for 599 if I do that I won’t be able to buy a half next week which would mark a month for me
I have been dealing with my rage by listening to type o negative black sabbath and pink floyd type of music and drinking a few beers that usually does it then I calm down and become my affectionate self again. I am just having a few temper tantrums every now and then and have been craving a smoke so bad that it is pretty much been it for all my withdrawal symptoms
thanks for listening I feel better its getting harder as the weeks go on I don’t know if I can go a life time with out weed if I don’t have gods holy spirit helping me but god hates me cause I watch porn and think selfishly and want to smoke weed and break the law so I got no help on that front
later peace out
This site is bogus they don’t don’t allow opposing views in comments
If you can’t smoke then don’t it’s not that addictive people you won’t die or anything if you do or don’t smoke it so there you decide it’s your decision
Good Luck John!!!
I know you’ll do what you can to stay away from weed. At least you decided to quit. I wish you courage and strength to so that you can stick to that decision.
Nausea has always been the first symptom to hit followed by most of the others mentioned here. It’s good to hear about the cold sweats. Glad to know it’s not menopause. Been smoking for 20 years and have tried quitting a thousand times. Have used the 12 step program over the years to no avail. Recently had 9 months. It did end a very important romantic relationship of 7 years but for some reason I keep letting that &^%$ back into a bowl and into my life. I’m going to try again tomorrow. Found this blog today when researching about my nausea. I will have everyone here in my thoughts and heart.
Nightmares! Every time I try to quit the nightmares come on strong. Is anyone else experiencing this? How long will they last?
I’ve been smoking on and off since I was 15 I am 54 now. I dosen’t get easier when you get older. I been clean for a few days now and I Can’t really tell if I have withdrawal symptoms, other than eating a bit more and always thinging how the weed made me feel like “King Shit” like I could do anything and talk to anybody.
Hi,
I am 43 and smoking for more than 20 years. 3-5 joints during the week, more than 10 on weekend days. Now clean for a week, feeling nervous and tired, having not slept much. All the withdrawal symptoms that you already described in your posts. I would appreciate if someone could tell me when can I expect those symtoms to cease, as this way I can hardly function at all. Thanks. I am deeply symphatysing with all of you who are experiencing this, as I am really having a hard time. However, do not get me wrong, feeling like shit just makes me more strong in my determination not to let this habit ruin my life more than it already did…
Sell it….you’re a DOUCHE!
Started Smoking when i was 17, became a daily smoker since 20, 35 now. I stopped for one month 6years ago, for University again! Was getting strait A’s during that month, one saturday night decided to smoke, right back to a daily smoker! Its was wicked! like the first time. 2 yrs ago, quit for 8 days( I was in Mexico) wasn’t going to risk looking for some down there, especially when i can smoke it whenever i wanted at home.
Anyways seems like everyone has similar stories, Quit Tobacco and Alcohal, but not pot yet. So I’m trying to stop for real now because (quite frankly..Sell it) I just Can’t GO JETS GO handle this GO JETS GO Habit anymore, I am just soooooo sick of getting high all day, everyday. At least I’ve been Vaping for the last couple of years though.
When i wake up it’ll be day 3, no sweats..yet, mild headache, very ANNOYED at little things….Sell it. Go live in Gongdale where all the other stupids live.
Hi. I’ve been smoking daily for about 23 years. I have a 14 year old that is aware of my disease. I also have a 6 year old daughter. I love them dearly. I’ve been married 13 years and now my wife wants a divorce. I’m a nervous wreck. Lost 13 pounds in week! I’ve been clean for 5 days and feel like crap. Can’t eat, sleep, or stop thinking about smoking a bowl. It doesn’t get harder than this. My soon to be ex is definately going to bring the drug use up in court. It’s going to have a horrible effect on my custody. I have no choice but to quit. My heart aches as well. Went to the doctors to find out that I have bronchitis. Doc prescribed some Zanex and I believe it has been a great help w all the anxiety from losing my family and my addiction
pathetic. try getting off of opiates
Been smoking for 25+ years. Have been trying to quit for a long time. I just can’t get past the nausea and throwing up. Is there any way to treat the nausea and get past it?
I become so distracted I can’t think clearly about what I need to focus on. When I realized I smoked in order to focus I knew that wasn’t rational.
I was an everyday smoker for 4 yrs, consuming about a 1/4 a day. My experience was heavy sweats during sleep, having to have a towel handy to wipe my soaked body. I would suggest using a rubber mattress protector as the water your body releases is unreal. Stick with it. The hardest thing to stop was the Nicotine addiction which has made me use patches to help. Hope this helps people
After being a total stoner for 20+ years, I have given up. I’ve been off for over 6 weeks now. About 2 weeks in I got complete exhaustion. Has anyone else had this? I haven’t found it mentioned on any forums. All I could do was sleep. I slept for 12 or more hours a night and still could have slept more. I also felt quite depressed. This lasted about 2 weeks, then suddenly lifted and I now feel energetic and happy.
Apart from that I’ve had the usual detox symptoms; I’ve had a sore throat, but this seems to be getting slowly better, fantastic dreams, clear head etc.
Oh, I meant to say, Terry, stick with it. It seems like the bad times are only for the first month. Soon you will feel great and you will love not being stoned.
I was so addicted mentally I would pick up roaches on the ground and smoke them. On my way to work I would stop at this park where stoners go, looking on the ground for it. During dry spells I would do anything to get high including picking up strangers to go get it. I am such a fool that in times of plenty I was toking every thirty minute or so. Then came the synthetic stuff, the herbal incense stuff. I am 50 now and I’ve smoked since I was 16. Then at 30, I started having bipolar episodes. Bipolar is really bad. You wonder why you can’t get along with people and you’re just a hyperverbal sonofabitch who can’t sleep and you get in trouble with people. Then the depression. You just want to die.
I think its great to have a site that deals specifically with canabis. Rock on!
So I must quit
i wish you all the best of luck i know that doesnt mean much but you can all do it and im proud you have all decided to be strong and quit. you can all do it i believe in you all!!!
well, I just have to chime in and say this article and most of the replies are total BS, the article says that people “don’t like to talk about these symptoms” the reality is you dont here it because its not there… there are no physical WD symptoms from pot… if your feeling something its in your head… try being an addict to opiates and going through WD’s and you’d realize you don’t get em from pot.
I am strange. I was assessed as a child, an IQ of 145 I have Franco, germanic Italian spanish and japanese ancestry, from the japanese blood, i am alergic to alcohol. (which is why i smoke, nah, i just like smoking) My dreams of friends from long ago. got that. no night sweats. no change of appetite. I feel less anxiety during withdrawl. since i dont have to worry about social stigma, BLAZING RED EYES, or johnny law. THE BIGGEST SYMPTOM. My feet itch like crazy!!!!!!! This always happens when i quit. occasionally during the day my feet and palms get a shooting neve spike, similar to the sleep tingling feeling but it is only a quick flash. emotionally, spiritually, self confidence wize, all Immediate ups. damn my feet itch. mabye this helps adios amigos.
Nausea, so much nausea!! I don’t know how I will sleep tonight, I feel sick sick sick!!!
Starting at the age of 17 I have smoked off and on for about 3 years until I then smoked nearly everyday for two years. After quitting in order to pass drug tests as well as just take a break, I experienced withdrawal symptoms. I have had feverish symptoms, including a fever and lots of sweating. During the first couple days I had a loss of appetite which eventually came back a few days later. Since about day two, I have had a lingering cough in which is still present at day 8. It has been getting less severe. this cough has prevented me from getting quality of sleep, making me very sleepy throughout the day, trying to catch up on sleep. I am ultimately happy with my decision, but was not expecting to experience symptoms of detox.
I have been smoking for 1/2 half of my life at 33. Got my red card here in Colorado last year and have been smoking nothing but chronic daily ever since. I am getting married in a couple of months and have decided to finally quit weed. My fiance almost left me several times because I was stoned and moody all the time. She has always questioned if I will ever stop smoking. I have not touched the stuff in 7 days. I have been highly irritable and have had some anxiety. I find deep breathing and hot showers help with the anxiety. I have been working out heavily and find working out has helped with the cravings and desire to go back. Working out makes me feel healthy and it is the biggest contributor to not wanting weed anymore. Sleeping is a disaster. I haven’t had a full nights rest since I stopped. The last couple of days I have had diahrea and am achy and a little nauseated. I thought it was something I ate, but am now thinking these are more withdrawl symptoms. I am currently out of work and have a very hard time getting motivated to look for work. I used to get stoned and sit around parranoid and depressed all day. It was easy to avoid looking ofr a job when I was stoned all the time. I thought quitting would help, but I don’t feel any more motivated than I did stoned.
Does anyone know when the sleeplessness typically subsides? What about the lazyness?
I am so glad I found this site! After smoking daily for close to 20 years, I just realized this habit is becoming a problem for me. I have an appointment with my doctor on Monday to ‘confess’and get proper help. I feel like I have learned so much by reading people’s stories. Here’s how I’m trying to think about it – kinda of like straightness will be my new trip! Afterall, haven’t really experienced that since I was 16, I’m now 35!
Best of luck all – thanks for your honesty.

Hey guys, my case is a bit different than most of you because my problem was not weed, but hash. In my country (Egypt) there is no weed, there is only hash. The hash that is sold here is mixed with shitty painkillers and chemicals so it’s much worse compared to weed. I am only 15 years old and have been smoking daily for about a year. I spent the past year doing nothing but smoking hash with my friends and I found that it affected my life extremely negatively. At first, I didn’t understand the people who didn’t smoke up, I thought it was harmless, and at school no one could beat me in argument about weed. Everything that is on the internet about marijuana being not addictive is bullshit. Pardon my french. Smoking occasionally is not a problem, but when it starts to dominate your life it becomes like a disease. I haven’t smoked for 5 days, and I am extremely proud of myself. I think that any one who is trying to stop marijuana should find a healthy activity that they are interested in and stick to that. Marijuana is a waste of time. You’re wasting your money, your time and most importantly your health just so you could do something that makes you run away from your problems and from real life. Smoking makes you escape every problematic aspect of your life, but sooner or later you will have to realize that you have to face these problems and live a normal life. I love smoking, and I bet you do too. Just stop smoking and make a balance in your life. Moderation is not bad. Just stop thinking about it and lose yourself in something that will make you a better person, and that doesn’t mean that it has to fuck your health.
First day off pot. Not the first time I’ve tried though but I am more determined this time. I have smoked for 18 years, started when I was 13. Last 10 years I can barely recall a day when I didn’t smoke. I have to stop though. I am single mum with 2 beautiful kids and I don’t want them to see and live this lifestyle. Both my parents smoke and I grew up surrounded. But I want more for myself and them. Already have the sweats and nausea.
Also to SELL IT who posted back in November 2010 – I know people who can smoke pot and stop for months and be fine. Pot might not be physically addictive but it definitely is psychological and if you can smoke without the psychological addiction good for you but why be critical of others who feel the effects differently.
I love smoking. I love being stoned. I hate my inability to stop. I hate that it feels normal to smoke a joint at 7am with my morning coffee. Stop judging and be supportive.
I have been smoking for 17 years. I have been smoking everyday for the past 15 years. I started at 16 years old and it was the answer to all my emotional problems. It became something I had to have to be happy. If I didn’t have it, that would be all I could think about. I consider myself a high functioning pothead: I finished college, supported myself, have a decent steady job, I’m in a long-term relationship of eight years (he is also a pothead). But if I’m really being honest with myself I can’t deny the wreckage it has caused in my life: social isolation from friends, not keeping in touch with family and close friends, credit card debt because of all the thousands of dollars that went to weed instead of groceries, bills, etc…major regrets like not visiting grandparents on deathbed because I was too high and lazy (hard to even write it). I’ve stolen weed from college roommates and friends if I didn’t have it. Not to mention I always excelled in academics and on more than one occasion had people tell me how talented I was and how much i needed to develop my brain etc…And now I’m 33 years old and at the end of my rope. It helped me in the beginning to open my mind to truths I was unaware of, but not it is not helping me at all! I have tons of anxiety, depression, antisocial, I can barely talk without stuttering or losing my train of thought. I have a hard time focusing on people talking without my mind wandering, I don’t want to do much besides smoke pot, really. It’s sad that this is what has become of me. It’s sad when I think of all the missed opportunities and friendships I’ve missed out on. My fiance and I are quitting together as we both acknowledge the detriment it has caused ourselves and our relationship. Today was day one and we kept busy by going to the movies–it was the first time I watched a movie sober in like 15 years! And it was wonderful, I actually paid attention throughout the entire film. Then we went to the bookstore to get some books. I’m a big reader but hated reading when I was stoned, so I’m going to throw myself into books to help with the cravings. And the cravings are no joke! As is the insomnia and lack of appetite. I want to come out of the fog and connect again with the world. I wish everyone the best of luck on this site.

Smoke weed everyday!!!! ERM? Not no snoop dogg lol
Thanks .
Someone above mentioned quitting opiates and the anxiety being 1/100 times harder when compared to quitting weed. I too have quit opiates cold turkey. I used to chew about 5-6 80mg oxy’s a day…You want to talk withdrawal?? Try that on for size…you’re talking 10 days of major pain, zero sleep, throwing up, no eating, crazy cold sweats every time you wake up (if you’re lucky to sleep for a couple minutes) and diarrhea like mad….and so much more!
I’m hoping when I quit weed in the next couple days that I will be able to sleep…that’s all I’m really worried about. I can’t stand just tossing and turning all night long…it drives me mad!
Hey if I quit pills/heroin I’m sure I can quit weed too!
Best of luck anyone and everyone!!!
I hav smoked for ten years, tried and stoped for eleven months. Am now six months into it again…i need to get it right this time.
If it’s affecting your life negatively then it’s an addiction and it needs to stop. Thankfully this site has so many resources and it’s good to know the w/d syptoms it makes it easier to keep going when you know you are not alone.
Hello everyone I jus read this whole site and comments …
damm everyone is almost going threw the same shyt as me
i havent smoked bud for a week now and on top of that i havent stogged it for about 1 month 1 week.
I am 20 years old i have been smoking stogs since 13 and weed since 16… I am using nicotine patchs for the ciggeretes and the weed…i basically told all my weed smoking friends to go fuck them selfs because all they do is catch a spot and smoke weed and stog it…
I’ve been with my gf for 3 years now shes happy that im quitting both of these bad habbits but F@#k! nictoine patchs help for stoging some what, but the weed really F@#ked me in the head i feel emo , anxiety ,insomina , bipolar , add,pissed ,sad , sleepy all the time, lazy, no motivation , depressed ,shaky hands ,worst night mares,etc…my gf trys cheering me up all the time but then like an idot i snap at her thinking shes cheating on me or shes fake idk why! then the next 5mins i feel retarted saying all that and love her…i went to my doctor and told him all this and he gave me a type of volume call “alivan’ Ranbaxy 1mg or Larapax or how ever u spell it he gave it saying when ever you feel stressed or trouble sleeping just take one and youll be fine…hasnt helped..i havent slept for 3 days but when i took the ranbaxy it knocked me out but then i couldnt wake up from my nightmares ..if any one out there nos what i can do to get my motivation my life and my sleep back please help me!!!!!
My names JOsh and iv smoked herb everyday of my life for atleast 8-10 years im 28 now. i love smoking weed , i dont smoke heavily like i did when i was younger and smoked alot with others . but i smoke nightly with my g/f . But iv got to get a job and save money. We have been staying at my folks house for a year since our apartment flooded, i just lost my job a few weeks ago and my father said hes going to kick us out if im not clean by the first part of september, though thats less than a month now . Anyways i totaly know im mentaly and probaly somewhat phicaly addicted, i would smoke forever if i could but iv got to stop to get a job and get out and possibly stay clean after that. i havnt bought no bud for like 4 days now , BUT iv been smoking resen every day, when my g/fs at work in the day. not alot but evry few hours ill hit it a few times .this is making me feel guilty as hell. I dont know what to do. i dont know if im on the right track by not buying any or what , this is horrible i hate watching tv and evrything when im not high or anticipating smoking that night
my friend has irritable bowel syndome and anxiety, so quitting for more than around a day really hightens these problems. xanax and other stuff helps, like pepto bismol forr the runs. the runs i think can be the worse.
Thanks to all of you brave souls for sharing your pain and progress, you struggles and successes, your failures and futures. I smoked in my twenties but it never had a big hold on me – I’m one of the lucky ones. My heart goes out to Ray – please know that God does not hate you, in fact God understands and wants to help you. He sees your struggle and understands the reasons for all of it and accepts you as you are and wants to help you reach for and achieve that something better in life you yearn for – keep on keeping on!
also you might feel sick when you give up the weed. I had no appetite for at least a week when I gave up which was cool as I gave up tobacco at the same time which is supposed to make you eat! xxxx
