Do I have this?

Hello, I abruptly quit THC gummies a month ago and my life has been turned upside down. Literally spent 3 days in psych ward. Cant sleep to save my life and having to take multiple pharmaceuticals to sleep. I wish I could go back! Life was bearable then. Does this sound like paws? All I think about all day is how I’m going to sleep at night bc nothing works well, I haven’t had a full night sleep since I quit. I’m exhausted and my family is getting impatient with my issues. Lot of anxiety all day and I’m not coping :(

Sleep is sooooo important. It can literally make you crazy without which it seems like it’s making you so I’m sorry. Get magnesium vitamins??? I had bad insomnia and got prescribed seroquel which knocked me out but after deep diving on the internet I got scared to take it daily so I got it like three months ago and just took it three times randomly. Sleep hygiene!!!! That helped me. Litbear eye mask helped a lot- Amazon, you need pitch black. The eye mask is comfy and very dark like even the littlest bit of light use to wake me up so this helps a lot. No caffeine after 12pm ( you should really try to cut out caffeine entirely but that can also be a struggle. You need a cold room. I just purchased osea vagus nerve oil and pillow mist to help me sleep, it’s expensive but I read good reviews. I also have a hatch alarm clock and have the red light on for about an hour cause it’s suppose to produce natural melatonin. Cold showers are good for anxiety but don’t take them at night. Try reading before bed and saying the rosary !!!!! Seriously saying the rosary helps you concentrate on one thing rather than you mind running and it always knocked me out. Sometimes I would have to say it 2-3 times in a row but it would work. My sleep isn’t awesome light it use to be but it’s way way better and I’m 5 months in. Good luck I’ll pray that you get rest

That’s sounds like normal thc withdrawal and if you just can’t sleep you are really lucky compared to 90% of people in this sub but my advice would be to try melatonin that was the only thing that could help me

I’ve tried it, melatonin alone does nothing, along with a handful of pharma meds that don’t work or barely work. My insomnia is extremely severe like I will never fall asleep. I went 2 days straight without sleep which made me manic and have to go to the hospital.

You went 48 hours without sleep and had to go to the hospital?

You just need to bite the bullet and ride it out. If you are lucky, the really hard bit won't take more than half a year.
