Hey I am a 20 year old male and I weigh around 65kgs.i smoked weed once in my life about month ago I quit smoking weed after that coz on that time weed made me almost horrible even I began getting anxiety from smoking normal cigrete with time, I didn't feel right, I woke up feeling tired, I had a foggy mind and couldn't think straight,

I am really proud of myself for actually stopping. I had got to a point where I needed to stop smoking because I could feel myself sort of 'loosing it'.

I would have some and it would trigger anxiety and a psychotic feeling. I would be really self conscious and would stuff up my sentences and I could tell that they noticed that I was acting strange. I developed this feeling I was going crazy but I actually wasn't, it is really hard for me to explain but it was like I was worrying so much that I was crazy that it ended up making me a bit crazy from just thinking that all the time.

I decided it was best for me to stop smoking it, I was really determined to stop and just did. It was hard to let go of it but also easier than I expected in some ways.

The thing is I would have thought that by now I would be feeling better than what I do.

The main problem I am facing right now is I feel like something is missing and it feels like I need weed to be able to literally just relax and enjoy myself. I can't relax and I can't really get into anything becuase I am not at peace. I am edgy all the time and am having a hard time getting back to feeling normal and getting joy from life without being stoned.all those things happened during high weed if unfortunlely happens my feeling goes down..

So I am after some opinions, advice, experiences or just anything anyone wants to share regarding all of this.

Will this eventually pass? I don't want to start smoking again and have all my efforts ruined and I don't think I will. But after a month of feeling like crap I am starting to think that it isn't worth it and I need weed to feel normal.

Thanks for reading this, I hope to hear from you all.

    It ain't the pot. All pot does is take sugar from your blood, making you drowsy and hungry. That only lasts until you eat. Eating a sweet like a candy bar will bring you off a pot high pretty quickly.
    Apparently some people enjoy fucking other folks up by adding all kinds of dangerous drugs to something as safe and pleasant as pot, so your reaction could be from something someone added to the pot.

    Don't pay attention to those urges, you don't need to smoke. Life is too short to be wasted for something harmful to yourself and your surrounding. Smoking increases the risk of heart diseases, cancer, and an early death. Even if you don't care about harming yourself, you don't have the right to harm non smoking passive smokers. Keep yourself busy with work and go for some sports, join a football team, or my personal favorite, a cycling club. It will help you concentrate on cycling, improving your health, making new friends who live a healthy life style...

      Yep, it can't be repeated too often: HALF of all nicotine smokers will die from a smoking related disease and you left the most common one off your list. Emphysema is not curable and believe me, it is not fun and no-one should be as stupid as I was to believe the official line that a smoker's organs return to normal after a certain time off the smokes. This is not necessarily true in the case of lungs and feeling well while smoking is no indication of the actual health of the lungs

        Totally agree with you, I only smoked cigarette once in my life when I was 16 after my friend forced me to, hated it and never tried it again. I just don't get why young people thinks smoking is cool and waste their money at it, I find smoking pathetic and the tendency to smoke a disease itself...

          Good on you for not taking it up, I wish I never had. It's a very powerful addiction once you're hooked, but it can be beaten: I just beat it too late for my lungs to ever be any good again and I can't bear to think about all the money I wasted on it

    Addiction after one use? Impossible. Addiction to weed period? I don't think so. Weed is the only drug you can't be addicted too. But it's not for you at the same time. I'm telling you this right now don't try it again.

      I haven't smoked weed, so maybe I'm not qualified to answer, but I am pretty positive that DEPENDENCE on weed is possible. It may not be quite the same physical addiction as some other drugs, but I certainly think that I have witnessed people be dependent on the effects that it has on them to the point where they smoke it every day and they have trouble going without it for more than a few days or a week.

        Yeah, but OP says he smoked it once and I don't believe that could create dependence
