Hi,

I dont know where to start really, have gotten myself into abit of a state thats got worse and worse and now have gotten so bad im desperate for answers, any input welcome.

Im a 20 yr old female in the uk and me and im long term bf have been smoking hash and cannabis for about a year, almost every day to be honest, i have a severe ocd and anxiety dissorder so took to smoking it to make me feel better.
Anyway, a couple of months ago a nasty sickness bug went around, and i thought i'd caught it as i was being sick as soon as i woke up and continued to be so and really nasty nausia all throughout the day and night with it too. It went on for 5 days and i was getting no better and as it was an unusually long time my dad (doesnt know i smoke) offered to take me to the doctors, the doctor advised it was a simple bug and by trying to eat more and waiting i would fight it off.
8 days had passed and i was still puking like mad, i had hardly ate due to the constant nausia.. and i had no strength, then my boyfriend suggested getting some cannabis as it relieves sickness. Well considering we'd been without for over a week and i was losing all hope of getting better we bought a good amount of cannabis.
And to my suprise, it cured me! as soon as i'd done a bottle bag (sort of like a bong/bucket) - i felt instantly better.. 8 days of hell when i could have been blazing!?

Unfortunately, the story doesnt end there, we bought enough to last us a week, then we bought another weeks worth straight after. it was a good couple of weeks until i woke up one morning with no cannabis and realised i WAS still ill, i was sick within a few minutes and the whole thing started up again.

Not wanting to tell my doctor i just used cannabis to cover up the sickness until recently, where i came clean about everything to her, she said it could quite possibly be the cannabis and to stop taking it, when i explained it wasnt as easy as that when i have server sickness and nausia she gave me some anti sickness pills and told me to take them instead of cannabis.

I tried the pills the next day and they didnt work, i just brung it back up

Now, in desperation as i dont know what the bloody hell to do... i looked some things up online and found this: "Effects on gastrointestinal tract: Marijuana has known antinausea properties and the use of marijuana has been permitted for the treatment of nausea in some US states for this reason. Oddly enough, a chronic nausea/vomiting syndrome has been reported in numerous habitual marijuana users. Cessation of use in these cases ends the syndrome. "

IS this what i have? The nausia/vomiting syndrome caused by long term cannabis use?
I think the likely answer is yes, but what my real question behind all of this is what do i do to get off it sucessfully without feling or being sick? the anti sickness tabs dont work and i already went about a week off of it when it first came on as described above ^

So what the bloody hell do i do? The money its costing to keep me on cannabis/hash all day every day is killing me, but the other option of staying long term sick isnt appealing either.. the doctor has no answers... HELP!? =(

Sorry for the long post ans thanks in advance.
