I am wondering what exactly what the withdrawals of THC are? I'm working on quitting medical marijuana cold turkey because I believe I have developed an addiction to it.

Speaking as an old hippie, i thought the advantage of weed was that it was NOT physically addicting like harder drugs. It was considered a "gateway" drug. Maybe a psychological addiction?

Weed can definitely be physically addicting. I've been in rehab with people trying to get off it. If I remember correctly the main withdrawal symptoms people talked about were irritability, restlessness, trouble sleeping, and trouble concentrating.

Thank you for the information. I could really use some virtual hugs right now.

SybilMarie,

I'm sorry you're having a rough time.
