I suffer from Anxiety b.c of past marijuana use. How can i overcome it?

Question

I smoked alot of potent marijuana for the past 2 years. And i recently stopped, and i get really shy in front of people, and i just feel like my face is ugly and no 1 wants to talk to me or be near me. Im always alone with no one to talk to. And i have high anxiety// how can i overcome all these things??

Answer 1

Just relax and be you. If you stopped smoking it then trust me you look way better than when you were. Maybe you seem standoffish because you feel people think that way, just try eye contact when you are in a group of people and that is normally an ice breaker. Smile more. Get out, it's okay to get out by yourself and just have a nice time being you and you should feel comfortable enough to be you around others. You quit, you're strong. you will be fine.

Answer 3

Have a strong belief that you can overcome these all...

If you have a faith tradition, try revisiting it...

I have to tell you plainly that what's happening is the result of your past misdeed...BUT once again you can overcome it...probably you are undergoing withdrawal...drink lots of water or tea to help flush out the toxins...Just the good Dr. Phil said we unlearn bad habits by doing new good ones...

It starts with you and ends with you...

I feel your pain... I had a brush with controlled substances in my teen years...

Answer 6

I have all those problems too, well the anxiety that is.

I used to smoke everyday for about 6 years and I get anxiety attacks and such at random times

There isn't a REAL way to overcome it, it's just the longterm use of drugs which is our own fault D=
