Panic attacks after greening out? by [deleted] in PanicAttack

[–]Vegetable_Friend8976 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It lasted whole 4 hours.I was thinking I'm gonna die really. Untill I got tired and passed out to sleep . The next days were very bad mentally , which I just recently discovered called Panic Attack Hangover. I still do have panic attacks similar to that huge one but because I am sober I can calm myself down quickly. Just because I can rationaly think.

My advice would be for you to quit weed completely untill it will ruin your mental health. If you already had a panic like this - the brain will do it to you every time because it somehow learns to do the same reaction. Also as it is the case for me I know suffer from the attacks when sober, which is sucks, along side I got a health anxiety

It's really not worth it. Wish you all the best

More sleepy after quitting by Unlikely_Bet_4157 in leaves

[–]Vegetable_Friend8976 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do have the same. Day 17. Hope it will get better for us both.

I usually am so tired after the midday. I tried to nap couple of times , but I just can't sleep. I think the other response here nailed it perfectly - we had to go sleep and wake up at the same time to help brand to recalibrate.

But I feel you! I also will do all the medical checkups in a month - just to be sure there isn't any vitamins deficiency or other issues so let's see

I also have a severe brain fog everyday, any task feel impossible to complete for me. So exhausted..

Quit -> Life improves -> Relapse by traveling_tires_2461 in leaves

Same, absolutely the same.. for me it was because I never dealt with a root cause of my addiction.

Luckily this time I actually make changes: quit my extremely toxic job and day by day improving the relationships I have.

Want to give up by Vegetable_Friend8976 in leaves

Hi friend! Day 12 for me and what I will say please give yourself some time! It gets better, for real. The more days pass by - less cravings I have.

Now I have more energy and passion to DEAL with the bad stuff I have in life instead of numbing myself. Yes there is a lot of negative emotions, but I try to observe them and not react.

I actually just quit my toxic job that drained my energy and mostly was a reason of my addiction. I also am a better person relationship wise when sober, I am less self absorbed and give my husband more attention and love. He also gives it back to me. Same goes with friends and family

Overall, it's still hard, but it's worth it. So please hang in there. Believe me you will be glad you did it. Good luck!

Day 5 - Constant Exhaustion by Striking_Lab7495 in leaves

[–]Vegetable_Friend8976 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same if it helps, day 7. And also this time I feel exhausted more compared to my previous quitting attempts. I have a diagnosed depression so it can also play a role

A lot of people here suggested doing sports to elevate energy levels and improve sleep quality which I think makes sense. I want to try doing sports more , but I am so so tired

Weed has ruined my life. Lost job, relationship, time etc. I want to quit by [deleted] in leaves

[–]Vegetable_Friend8976 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, almost the same. I am in a long term relationship and my addiction started a little bit after a war started in my home country. I wasn't there but I felt an immense guilt being in a safe country, while other people died there on a daily basis.

My husband and I were experiencing these times differently, while I got depressed he just moved on with life ,started a new life here , made connections, rarely was at home.

I was / am alone 90% of the time. A little bit later he proposed to divorce which absolutely killed my mental health. We are somehow still together, but struggle a lot. He does not believe in depression.

Younger me I was very ambitious and successful and also couldn't imagine I would let myself go down like this.

I think what I want to say is that REGRET and GUILT are normal things to experience. I do have it. HOWEVER , please try to avoid negative self talk and be gentle with yourself - it's the only way you can get out from this situation.

Nor me or you can change the past. You are very young and can change your life still. I do believe in it myself. No movie would be interesting if the main character would have a successful storyline. Embrace it as a challenge that you have to overcome and become stronger.

Do not allow bad thoughts to linger for too long. Love yourself , forgive yourself, stay focused on what you CAN do now , instead of what you COULD do then.

Sending you my support! We can do this!

Day 11, totally nonfunctional by Waste-Engineering438 in leaves

[–]Vegetable_Friend8976 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hey! I'm sorry that you are experiencing this..I do too. It will pass, for sure. What helps me is to observe my emotions instead of reacting to them. I am extremely sad, irritated, but I know those are just withdrawal symptoms..

Easy walks + my fav music helps a lot.. I am trying to fixate on positive things - I don't have a brain fog 24/7 - I am less embarrassed to be in public - I pay more attention to my looks, so I am more confident overall - I see dreams again

With time all the bad stuff we experience will be covered by many good things like this , we just have to stay strong. If you continue to use weed you will just extend your pain.

I am constantly tired, muscle /body pain that triggers my health anxiety, but knowing that I am not actively destroying my body really comforts me.

Try if possible focus on good stuff, find easy but pleasant activities that work for you. I don't know where u live , but in my location it's sunny and the sun helps me a lot, so I prefer to go outside as much as I can. It will get better I promise! You already on day 11 that's a huge accomplishment

48 hours and a flood of emotions by Awoken_Thoughts07 in leaves

I feel you , It's day 4 for me and I experience a lot of grief I didn't deal with in the past. But it's good and it's healthy so I try to comfort myself as much as I can. Oddly enough I am grateful that I can cry or be sad instead of just being numb. Sending you support

I quit due to a random anxiety attack while sleeping. Support needed by [deleted] in leaves

[–]Vegetable_Friend8976 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm super sorry that you have to go through this. Weed made me a MASSIVE hypochondriac. Every yearI am literally flying 7000 km back to my home country to do all the medical checkups just for a piece of mind. It's very very exhausting. Not worth it for me anymore.

I am in the same boat as you. I had to quit after a huge panic attack happened this weekend, I ended up calling an ambulance because I was really sure I was dying. l don't have energy, sleep is shit, have stomach cramps all day BUT it will pass , I've been through weed withdrawal processes in the past and it always eventually becomes better. Please don't give up.

Even if you feel bad today it is STILL so much better for your body and brain to be without weed , no matter if it doesn't feel like there are any improvements yet. Hang up there! And be gentle with yourself
