  • Marijuana users who have developed high tolerance
    to this type of drug can be facing a serious
    problem because of the possible withdrawal
    symptoms that may arise in the event they decide
    to quit. The usual withdrawal symptoms will arise
    within the 72 hours timeframe after the last use
    of marijuana and eventually subside in a week or
    more. One of the greatest challenges that
    marijuana users will have to cope is marijuana
    withdrawal anxiety. So, here is a step-by-step
    guide to help you get through this mental problem
    while still on the withdrawal process.

Step 1 Practice patience
  • Yes, there is no quick solution to end this
    addiction problem. You need to undergo a series
    of process before you can be clear of marijuana
    and the withdrawal symptoms. I suggest practicing
    patience is your best weapon to finish the whole
    rehabilitation program. The withdrawal symptoms
    will be there temporarily, but will not last long
    as long as you carry with the detox and drug
    rehab treatments.

Step 2 Remain calm
  • Coping with marijuana withdrawal anxiety can be
    achieved by remaining calm most of the time. You
    can try drinking herbal teas to sooth the side
    effect of feeling stress. Meditation is another
    way to calm your nerves and mind. You can also
    try a relaxing massage to reduce the tension
    around your muscles and at the same time ease
    your mind with the feeling of anxiety.

Step 3 Consult a professional
  • Doing the withdrawal process on your own may not
    be a good idea. Consulting a professional like a
    drug specialist in marijuana could be the best
    solution to cope with marijuana withdrawal
    anxiety. This expert can give you medications
    that will prevent the symptoms of mental
    disorders like anxiety and depression. In most
    cases of withdrawal processes, the doctor may
    prescribe Xanax or Valium, both anti-anxiety
    medications to control the withdrawal symptoms
    linked to mental problems.

Step 4 Get enough support
  • The success of your withdrawal from marijuana is
    also dependent on the people around you offering
    support. Find a support group who can be there to
    show encouragement whenever you are feeling down.
    For your problem of marijuana withdrawal anxiety,
    there is an online support group that supports
    people experiencing anxiety. The 12-step program
    is also another support that you must avail for a
    favorable outcome of your withdrawal process.

Step 5 Engage yourself to some activities
  • Stop being idle because being inactive will
    compel you to think negatively including the
    feeling of anxiety while undergoing withdrawal
    process. Engage to some form of activities that
    will keep your body and mind preoccupied. Find an
    exercise program that will lighten up your body,
    mind and spirit. You can also do activities that
    interest you like dancing, baking or painting.
    You can also listen to calming music to ease your
    troubled mind and ward off the feeling of
    anxiety.
  • Marijuana withdrawal anxiety is just one of the
    many side effects that your addiction to this
    weed could bring during a withdrawal process.
    With the presence of a drug specialist, support
    of your loved ones and community plus your
    determined mind, there is every reason for you to
    feel motivated to stop this addiction now.
