  • Lack of Appetite: Be prepared for no more munchies! This really is one of the most common side effects once you suddenly quit smoking weed. Without a cannabis detox strategy most people will notice this.

  • Understand your Addiction to Cannabis. Marijuana addiction is a controversial topic because people fail to differentiate between a physical addiction and a psychological addiction. While marijuana has physical withdrawal symptoms similar to that of cigarettes, it is the psychological aspect of the addiction but most users struggle with.

  • Set a Date to Stop Smoking Cannabis.The purpose of setting a quit date, is to allow yourself to get mentally and physically prepared to quit smoking marijuana. Your quit date should be an actual date. It should not be when your stash runs out, or roughly a week before the next semester of school starts, or next month. It is important to nail down the date. In my personal experience, before I learned to set a date that I would stop, I used to smoke my stash as quickly as possible. I did this because I convinced myself that each bag was my last bag. When my bag ran out, I would buy another one, and smoke it just as quickly, convincing myself that it was also the last bag. Does this sound familiar?

  • An Activity To Replace It: If you have spent a lot of time smoking marijuana in your life, it is probably in your habitual routine by now. It helps to replace your activity with something that can take your thoughts away from the negatives when you first quit weed by just serving as a continuous diversion from the withdrawal.

Whatever you do, clean your environment so that there is no trace of marijuana or of marijuana related equipment. Cravings are easier to resist when there is nothing immediately in front of you.
