Re: Beating the Rollercoaster of hell

And absolutely zero weed for 4 years, right?

Re: Beating the Rollercoaster of hell

Thanks for the prompt response.
What I really wanted to know whether you have any PAWS-related issues: anything physical, psychological, social, any waves, that sort of thing.

Re: 13 Months in, what a ride.

There is no way I would want to do this to my body all over again.


Only those people can understand this who have been through proper thc withdrawal. The physical agony can be so intense that it literally etches weed refusal into your system.

Re: 13 Months in, what a ride.

@Panicstate
What you're experiencing is so much like paws. I used to have the same sneaky regressions... just when you'd think it's getting better. Don't lose spirit, this phase may take months but the worst of the worst is over.

Re: PAWS

What you're experiencing is totally normal.
The name of the game is PAWS.
It usually resolves itself in 2 years.

Re: Withdrawal not stated yet

Thanks, I'm good. This all happened more than 2 years ago and PAWS is no longer an issue in my life.
In all honesty I was secretly hoping for less struggle but what really counts is the outcome :-)
Good luck with your quit mate!

Re: Withdrawal not stated yet

@mystspirit In my case it took a whole month - exactly a month - before hell kicked in. For 30 days nothing happened then smash! The following night crazy symptoms appeared in the dead of the night...they wrecked me immediately. The same night I ended up in an ambulance. Let's hope you won't get to ...

Re: 11.5 months

I now just feel off physically. I have weird head feelings constantly and wake up groggy all the time. Congrats man on having been sober for so long! I remember this phase around 11 months in. It was manageable but demanding. I had annoying waves with physical symptoms, hardly any anxiety though. I...

Re: 28-month progress report

I'd say I am. I do not experience offs, nothing I would identify as PAWS-related.
The last serious wave was at month 13. I'd say it's been at least 6 months since my last wave-like episode.

Re: Is there light at the end of the tunnel? - Weed PAWS

No idea. I had no depression at all. Instead it was general bodily malaise.
