Hi Dee,
Thank you.
Lucky you ha ha, the thing is, i quit alcohol in July 2020, i did not suffer from PAWS, quit Effexor in October 2020, did not suffer from PAWS either. Then, i quit weed in October 2021, to be honest, the first three months, i felt great, lots of energy, no depression or nothing, then i started to feel really depressed, anxiety went through the roof, intrusive thoughts, anhedonia. From 3-6 months, very hard, from 6-11 months, it was truly hell. Got some relief between 11-13 months, i was doing so great, exercising, great mood. But at 13 months mark, another wave hit me, it's way less severe then before, just bad anxiety and intrusive thoughts. Paws can last up to 2 years, i'm in for the long run i guess.
Will.
