How Can The Withdrawal Effects Of Marijuana Be Managed?

Hi, I have started smoking weed over the past few months. I’ve smoked nearly everyday since then, and have gotten high every day for almost two weeks now. Christmas break is coming up soon and I won’t be smoking when I return home from college. Do you have any tips on what I can do to help with the THC withdrawal and how long will it last?

most people do not get withdrawal. Then, the pattern of it does not follow any particular pattern. There can be negative effects like jitters, panic, anxiety or being sad or there can be loss of a positive effect. if the cannabis helped with anxiety, depression, or pain, then not having it there will allow this to return. You cannot know what will happen, so the treatment for withdrawal is not possible to predict.
