Hi SobrietyIsKey
How did you deal with your anxiety? I've been weed free for 21 days today and the anxiety is the hardest part for me. I was having daily panic attacks after I quit, i'd never had them before. And the worst part was the constant surreal feeling that was making me freak out even more. It is lifting now, but I still experience it at some point everyday. Did you get that surreal feeling? I think it might be exacerbated by the anxiety. If so, when did it finally go away completely? I'm on FMLA leave, it was that bad. I've been doing breathing techniques, progressive muscle relaxation, listening to music created for relaxation, seeing my therapist.
