Wait, this is after giving up cannabis? That is not normal at all. There might be something else going on. I've gone from heavy smoker for years to completely sober over night and then maintained my sobriety for months without any adverse effects. I've probably done this 5 times in my life. I've literally never heard of anything similar to your withdrawal situation happening to anyone with cannabis.

The sweating and shaking is the parts I haven't heard before, but as someone who has smoked a lot of weed and quit a few times, the problems with sleeping were definitely a thing for me. I've also worked in the industry for a while and have heard restlessness affecting other people who quit.

That's fair. I have heard of the difficulty sleeping as well. The sweating and shaking threw me so much that I didn't make an exception for the sleeping issues that that some people have when stopping use.
