Withdrawal symptoms: Discontinuation of heavy marijuana use could result in anxiety, irritability and insomnia. Although extremely uncomfortable it is not life threatening. The length of time to recover depends on amount and duration of use, as well as the body's response to metabolizing it. If you are truly committed to abstaining, referral to substance abuse treatment could be of great benefit. Discuss with doctor.

Therapy?: Cannabis withdrawal symptoms such as you describe are rare. Have you yet tried any form of psychotherapy? Typically, the optimal combination of things to treat emotional issues such as anxiety or depression is medication (which, on your best day, is supposed to take the edge off symptoms) but the real gruntwork takes place in psychotherapist's consulting room.
