Are these withdrawal symptoms or depressions?

Over the weekend I made a mistake and went a little bit too far when partying. I ended up taking about 1.5 – 2 grams of coke, one ecstasy, at least five Xanax, plus I smoked at least 4 grams of Marijuana, and took two 30mg Adderall.

Over the past three days I have slept a minimum of 14 hours each day, fallen into crying spells, been more hostile, and had suicidal ideation.

Were these symptoms triggered by the misuse and abuse of the aforementioned drugs, are they just depression symptoms, or are they withdrawal symptoms?

What should I do about them? What course(s) of action should I take?

marijuana for the last couple years has helped me battle severe depression. I have no health insurance…and am living in a very bad cycle of being unable to get any jobs with benefits…because i smoke….but sadly at the same time Marijuana helped me to stop “cutting”. The drug has proven at times for me in the past…as a life saver….and sometimes it still is…at the same time…i have to kick it in order to mentally and emotionally collect myself….but I feel that without marijuana I may end up doing harm to myself by going crazy. I had some friends that quit but they didn’t care enough about the drug to be upset with quitting. I feel if I don’t find the proper answers to help fight this addiction…I could be in very very big trouble. There is very bad withdrawal for me and it makes me wanna do harm to myself. So bad enough i have to kick an addiction…i have to keep myself from destroying myself. Please someone help.

Have smoked weed since age 23(1998) gave up for a year in 99/2000 and smoked weed constantly since until recently quitting 24/01/2008 (7 years) I also have drunk alot of alcohol in the last three years (mostly pre-mix bourbon) I also quit that same day. Since quitting I have had some normal withdrawl symptons eg: loss of appetite, sleepless nights and agitation but I have also had constant pain localised all through abdomen and chest, I get hot flushes, chills a tingling sensation in hands and feet, somedays my arms are constantly in pain from wrist to shoulder, I get exhausted and tired from doing really mediocre chores eg: making bed,vaccuming,cooking dinner and when I climb in to bed to sleep my legs ache constantly. My doctor keeps saying this is all part of withdrawals. Has anyone else experienced these kind of withdrawl symptons and how long did it last?

Are these symptoms for marijuana withdrawal and how long will they last?

Hello I am a 17 year old male, and i recently made the decision to quit smoking marijuana. I smoked about 1 to 3 bowls a day which would be about 2 – 3 grams for the past year .I realized i was abusing the drug to much so I quit cold turkey. I know you are not suppose to but if I get more i might just smoke it all . But anyway the first day wasn’t to bad at all. But the second day i woke up sick to my stomach with a headache and i couldn’t get comfortable in my bed at all. The third day was much worst, I was anxious and still had an upset stomach. I cant eat very well yet i eat better(yet less) because i don’t have a craving for greasy foods anymore. I had very slight depression and anxiety the 2nd and 3rd day but now I think its gone. I have a slight shortness in breath also when i get the anxiety. My body also feels tired and sore. And lastly the first 2 days I would get urges to smoke yet they are gone and the symptoms are still there. But i guess my question is when can i expect each symptom to stop because I’m not sure how much longer I can handle the withdrawal(If that is what this it). Support would be much appreciated also. Today will be my fourth day Clean.
