what happens when you stop smoking weed (marijuana, MJ, mama jane, zaza)

What Happens When You Stop Smoking WeedAnxiety, emotional flooding, vivid dreams, REM sleep rebound, attachment patterns, and nervous system recalibration explained.Within this podcast episode, Aya dives into what actually happens in your body when you stop smoking weed not from a place of shame or fear, but through a nervous-system-informed, trauma-aware lens.She explores how cannabis interrupts natural emotional processing, why emotions can feel overwhelming when the numbness wears off, and why anxiety, sleep disruption, and vivid dreams are common during withdrawal. This episode breaks down emotional numbing, dissociation, REM sleep rebound, attachment styles, and the “emotional backlog” effect explaining why quitting can feel worse before it feels better.Rather than framing cannabis as the problem, Aya reframes the experience as a process of emotional completion, nervous system recalibration, and self-regulation. This episode is especially for anyone who has used weed to cope with stress, trauma, anxiety, or overwhelm and wants to understand what’s actually happening in their body when they take a break.This is not an anti-weed conversation.It’s an invitation into clarity, self-trust, and learning how to meet yourself when the numbness fades.If this resonates and you’re craving structure, tools, and support while your nervous system recalibrates, you'll love the THE RESET COMMUNITY THE RESET SELF GUIDE 1:1 Coaching Meditation App Name: Field Trip
