heavy to moderate pot smoker 3 decades, then quit. 2 weeks grumpy, irritable.. 4? weeks more gradually becoming residue free.. (i figure it had soaked into my bones by that time, took a while).. noticed better memory, for phone numbers etc.. BUT.. more sensitive (aware) of depression. not depressed per se. just that there was a wider emotional spectrum and part of that was depression.. (some days sucked).. HOWEVER.. by the 3rd week clean (so to speak) I was dreaming vivid colorful dreams again.. and much less irritable. In my situation, 3 years abstaining wasn't difficult. Nor was beginning to use it again. I'd suggest if you've had trouble with it take a serious break, and as possible, Get In Shape. Swimming is recommended, as is bicycle riding.. i'd not suggest running.. (unless you are quite healthy and not overweight) ..
as well as take moderate vitamins and perhaps a mineral supplement. Micronutrients are often low and this can seem like illness without having a particular single symptom. just 'blah'..

I hope you feel better soon, and try to improve your general health as seems best to you.
