Cannabis withdrawal: Although not well documented, chronic cannabis abusers may experience cannabis withdrawal: lack of appetite, nausea, vomiting, irritability, anxiety, nervousness, insomnia after some time stopping the use of marijuana. The benefits of stopping smoking are clear: less risk of lung cancer and other carcinomas too.

Congratulations: Cannabis dependency is very common but less well defined. You are experincing the withdrawal of cannabis effect. A pschotherapy counselling and evaluation for dual mental illness will help maintain abstinence. Good luck on your efforts.
