Which symptom is listed as a cannabis withdrawal symptom?

• A. Insomnia
• B. Tremors
• C. Seizures
• D. Nausea

Answer: (A)

Withdrawal from cannabis often disrupts sleep, so insomnia is a hallmark symptom when heavy, chronic use stops. The endocannabinoid system helps regulate sleep, and removing cannabis after regular use can throw the sleep-wake cycle into imbalance, making it hard to fall asleep, stay asleep, or causing vivid dreams as the body re adjusts. Other common withdrawal signs include irritability, anxiety, decreased appetite, restlessness, and physical symptoms like shakiness or headaches, but seizures are not typical of cannabis withdrawal and nausea is not a defining feature—these tend to be less consistently listed than sleep disturbances. Insomnia stands out because it consistently appears in clinical descriptions of cannabis withdrawal and is one of the most reliably reportable symptoms.
