The only "withdrawal" is mental. You get used to being stoned all day or every night then you will miss it when you're dry....at least I did.

It was rather easy to quit voluntarily when I felt like that phase of limited responsibility in my life had passed but I can rememeber those dry summer months when last years harvest was dwindling and the next autumn one was not yet here and we would go on full alert to procure.

It most certainly is. I don't know about permanent brain damage though. In my era, the stuff was of poor quality by and large.

Some would say it is. I don't think so.

Are there any withdrawl problems going cold turkey?

No. I've done it numerous times.

Is it easier to quit than smoking?

YES! YES!! YES!!! NO comparison!

It's much easier to quit than cigarettes. They say the reason is it stores up in your fat cells, so it gets out of your system very gradually. Some people feel mildly irritated for a week or so, but generally it's not nearly as bad as stopping smoking cigarettes. It does seem to take a couple of months for the head to totally clear out.
