I don't need no N/A talk , nothing against it i just found it never worked for me. I am much better working by myself or talking to people on here.

I have came a long way in the last couple years but can not kick the weed habit. I am strong when i have all details and I am know from the psychical and neurological stanpoint what symptoms i'm going to have and strategies to fix them,, and maybe even some Vitamins or teas to help me. I am looking into high purity fish oil,, omega 3 vitamins, others would help. The last year i have had many symptoms like paranoia, twitching, confusion, not being able to doing anything when i get overwhelmed like feeling confusion , dizzy and literately like my blood is boiling or it's rushing to my head, something like that. I deal with personality disorder and A.D.D which in result gives me depression and anxiety( chronic anxiety now that I’ve been smoking pretty heavy for a year)

I am also starting the gym tomorrow also.

If anyone can help that would be great, even if it's a month from now. This one is going t be struggle for at least a couple month so..........
I'm not a medical Dr. but I have smoked on and off for almost 30 years. I have never experienced withdrawl. There were times when I was really stressed that I would think to myself "it would be really nice to catch a buzz right now". But I never felt or thought I NEED to smoke. However, pot is like everything else on this earth - it should be used in moderation. I've had a lot of experience with Dr. prescribed medications - I won't take anything anymore. To me it's poison. But pot, in my experience is the perfect med for many things - especially depression. But like I said too much of anything is bad for you and pot is really bad for your lungs.
I wouldn't worry about severe withdrawal - because you use so much of it you might feel different for a short period of time. Absolutely follow through with the vitamins, exercise, drink plenty of water, eat right etc. You will be amazed how much better you feel living a healthy lifestyle. My #1 suggestion - find a way to deal with stress. Exercise, meditation, whatever works for you. Stress is at the root of most physical and mental health problems. I use self-hypnosis - the more I do it the more I love it. I hope this helps. Thumbs up for starting a healthier lifestyle!!
Best of luck
