Hi Victoria- Congratulations on taking that step. I hate to tell you this, but it takes a full year for the effects of marijuana to leave the body. I know this from personal experience and from professional counseling (years after the fact.) PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not do this on your own!!! See a counselor or therapist. Depression and suicidal thoughts are very common withdrawal symptoms. I suffered the darkest, most painful period of my life because I didn't know the thoughts and feelings I was having were withdrawal symptoms, or that they were to be expected, or that they would go away in a year. It's a hard road ahead. Best of luck to you both.
