My anxiety was BRUTAL the first couple months, but that's leveled off quite a bit at this point. I still get my moments, but I went from basically having all day panic attacks to a low grade anxiety.
I got a massage not too long ago, and like, I don't know if it kicked out some residual THC in my muscles/fat but for the next two days I was put back into the first month of my quit. It was a nightmare.
good to know, i was thinking about getting a massage for my sore back but i will hold off for now. how long are you into quitting? when did you notice the anxiety start to decline.
i am at 3 months now, with 6 weeks of tapering very little like once a week and then once every 2 weeks, but now no more taper as i think it was holding me back a bit.
I'm about 3 by my best guess... not really sure, not totally clear on the last time I toked. It's weird, I quit cause I was getting some anxiety, not huge panic attacks like some people get but it was unpleasant so I stopped. Basically I 'stopped' early December, but toked maybe once or twice in early January. It was a weird series of events that led to my quitting, really, and it more or less happened accidently, though I DID want to stop. Just never knew what I was in store for.
Having gone through these early stages of PAWS though, I'm not going to wait to have a massive panic attack to force me to stop now, and I never want to go through this sh** again. It's the WORST.
I would say my anxiety started to taper off just within these past few weeks, so I can't say I'm out of the woods with it, but it's definitely less intense.
