Marijuana withdrawal symptoms do occur. Marijuana is a psychologically addicting substance, despite the social acceptance that is happening in our world. Some symptoms can be physical, as well. Withdrawal symptoms vary depending on the individual and frequency of use. Withdrawal symptoms include:

• For some people, flu like symptoms
