PAWS after quitting weed
I used weed for about a year and the last 6 months months. I知 a 17 yr old male, I was using marijuana pretty hard sometimes putting hash and concentrates in my tokes I知 a month and a few days sober now and I知 I believe I知 currently suffering from paws, I have times during the day where I feel normal and happy then it just dowards spirals pretty bad anxiety, hard time focusing sometimes blurred vision at times the list goes on honestly I just need to know are things going to get better like initially I feel pretty good most days I am slightly depressed of course due to quitting but it痴 somewhat manageable I just want my old life back.

Paws is usually after the initial withdrawal period, so at 30 days or so, it mightr be paws...

Yeah a lot of those symptoms do ring a bell for sure especially sleep disturbances at the moment I go to bed every night and sometimes wake up at like 4 in the morning some mornings for no reason At all

Welcome!
I am a little of 8 weeks sober and I still don't feel normal all the time. It comes and it goes, it varies per day. I've felt really good for a couple of days and then felt very low for some time. There are days where I have a lot of energy and sometimes I get tired very quickly. It goes up and down but over the course of the last weeks I feel that it's evening out more and more . Maybe it's just life, maybe I am adjusting to being sober (I suspect the latter).
If I were you I wouldn't worry about it too much and give yourself some time to find a new balance again. I think Dee is right: it will get better, things will improve. And if they don't, remember that there are other solutions than lighting up again.
Best of luck!

Hi Quitweed and welcome to the forum.
Since you smoked hard and heavy for quite a while, chances are you will still test positive after 3 months of sobriety. That means you are detoxing and still withdrawing. Give it time and be patient with yourself.
However, if you are still suffering from blurry vision after 3 months, go see a doctor.
