Who Says there are withdrawls from Cannabis

[the image reaper]

I've smoked steadily for a good many years, and when I occasionally stop for a couple days, I get mean as hell ... very short-tempered ... but, that may just be my normal 'walking around' mood, too :wtf: ... so, I play it safe, and stay stoned

Hi everyone,
i smoke for 35 years now, and when I am without pot for a day or so..., I don't get withdrawals in a full meaning of this word , but the symptoms of my sickness are much more severe and painful, if compared to the times when I am whacked out on some ice or white rhino ( I lived through three harvests back to back, and those days where one of the best times in my life ), but even when I am buying from a dealer, it must be good quality, otherwise I am in a bad mood, symptoms of my depression are sky high and I just don't want to be bothered...Is this considered withdrawals? I think so. In a very mild form (definitely not as painful as a hangover) but still a form of withdrawls. We all can get those from drinking coffee, even more so from drinking real loose tea and off cause smoking. Oh well, we have to pay somehow for moments of relief from crocodile kisses of pain and misery.

Maybe those "people's" headaches are stemming from somewhere else and the marijuana would just treat the symptom; when they stop smoking, it comes back. Then they wrongly think it is a symptom of marijuana withdrawals....

crazy!

No physiological withdrawals from thc - but i can understand (and have experienced) psychological withdrawals.

Hello MadSativa,

While I too have never suffered withdrawl symptoms from stopping mj cold turkey, I do know people who have. So I'm not about to "CALL BULLSHIT" to someone who does suffer physical symptoms from stopping. Besides mj haveing a psychoactive compontent it also works on the physiology of the body, including such things as pain control and lowering blood pressures.

Stopping mj cold turkey for some people will mean an increase in pain or the raising of blood pressures which could lead to headaches, both of which are physical symptons of thier having stopped.

I grow mmj and provide it free thru a cancer group (people fighting the disease) and a hospice group (people who are dying) to help aleviate physical problems and even psychological problems associated with treatments and or dying. It has a wonderfull calming effect on many.

I think you need to have a little more compassion for people in general and you're fellow users in particular.

I smoke a lot of weed probably an equivalent to a quarter to the head but sometimes connects can be dry and i can't smoke =/. Idk if its just me or if anyone else has had this happen; but when I can't get my daily dose of my sweet Mary-Jane I get real anxious, not a nervous anxious though. I also don't have any prior experiences with anxiety before the herb. I guess its not much of a withdrawl but I do start to feel real out of place with myself until I smoke.

Hi shake what's good man? It's pretty widely researched and known that marijuana does not have physically addicting properties. So that being said I think his post does make a lot of sense.

Everytime I've quit, the dreams start, I mean 3D surround sound dolby digital Dreams. Then... anger, irritability, and depression. Fun stuff

I don't know, to you guys that say no withdrawals, maybe give it a week, your probably still high for days after the amounts of weed yaw'll smoked.

It is funny that when I have a grow that I do crave it more. Something about seeing them gets me thinking about what I do not have. If it is not around ( the ladies) I do not miss it.
