Hello,

Good for you for working on your addiction! For me years and even decades of drug abuse has taken more than a few weeks, months, or even years to recover from - it's really a lifelong process.

You have changed a major priority and pleasure/reward system in your life and depression and anxiety are very normal. If you need people to talk to, I suggest checking out an NA, AA, or specifically a Marijuana Anonymous group. The MA groups are harder to find, but they even have Skype meetings these days. You will find plenty of people to talk to who have been through or are going through the exact same set of challenges.

PM me if you need to. Educating yourself about recovery from addiction should go a long way.

Good luck,

moogs
