Chronic cannabis users can and do experience withdrawal if they have a long history of heavy use. Even heavy users for moderate periods of time can exhibit withdrawal symptoms. Some withdrawal symptoms include sleep disturbance, poor appetite, and anxiety. It is advisable to slowly discontinue cannabis use if your underlying medical issue has resolved or improved. If you do have a severe chronic medical condition then you can limit the risk of developing a cannabis use disorder by avoiding daily use, switching to cannabis topical products, or incorporating more CBD and less THC in your current product selection.
