Marijuana withdrawal Upset Stomach Aches

[Unregistered]

I have been a pot smoker for 20 years, stopped 10 days ago-my anxiety and weeping are subsiding. Has anyone had problems with their stomach after stopping? After i eat i get a stomachache, every time i eat. Has anyone had this problem? Do you think I may have increased stomach acid because of all the tension and anxiety-thought I was going to rip someones head off in the beginning. Please give me your opinions. Keep it up all of you who are trying to quit-and God Bless.

Hi welcome to the forum

Stomach aches and sickness can be a symptom of anxiety and giving up marijuana can cause anxiety and upset your body in a number of different ways. So it’s probably just a symptom related to giving up. However if it persists you may want to get yourself checked out medically.

Take care and I wish you the very best of luck.

Giving up has gave me a ****ey stomach at times, it also made me pretty loose too.

yup i hav smoked for 7 years and when ever i cut down on weed i get really bad stomach aches and it makes it hard to eat. this is definatly anxiety. Exercise can help these symptoms book yourself in down the gym and do sum cardio. and never just stop. ween yourself of very slowly. but dont indulge in your allday everyday habbit.

Hey Unregistered,

I just went cold turkey last week after smoking almost non-stop. Wow, my stomach hurt - was gassy & acid. I also completely lost my appetite, but kept forcing food down because if my stomach was empty the pain was far worse. After 6 days of it I got worried and thought at one point that I had an ulcer, but soon as I started smoking again it went away. Pepto Bismol really helps & so will antacids but if you take pepto don't be worried by black stool which is a side effect of bismuth. Tuna fish, vegetables, milk, mayonnaise, any oily food to coat my stomach would also reduce the pain, but probably the best idea is to not go cold turkey but gradually ween yourself instead.
