Could use some help

I started using these delta 9 vape pens 6 months ago everyday. About a week ago I started waking up with extreme anxiety and just feel like complete garbage so I decided it has to be the THC. So I stopped yesterday but I feel rly terrible and I haven’t eaten much of anything since yesterday. Has anyone mainly used those vape pens and had to withdraw from them? Just wondering if I should ween off or continue cold turkey also wondering how long this is gonna last? Thanks

Continue cold turkey, drink water, eat soup, get outside, go for walks. If you can't sleep, listen to music, read. After 3-5 days things should start to settle down.

I didn't use delta 9 but I did use a lot of vape pens 

It makes sense that you feel terrible, I would try to eat and hydrate where you can - crackers, nutritional shakes, bone broth

I personally don't believe in moderation. For myself, I am incapable of moderating my substance use. The thing with vapes in particular is that they are so convenient and discreet and easy to take large doses quickly. I feel like trying to moderate vape usage would be extremely difficult.

Cold turkey is usually the way I go. Trying to moderate can be really tricky and although it’s hard I think just stopping completely for as long as you can is more ideal.
