I decided to kick weed for a while and started playing basketball again. The next thing I knew they were gone. I'd get them occasionally after that but I would just tell myself it was all in my head and they would go away quick. Its all mental you just have to learn to beat it. Whatever you do don't smoke weed or do anything to induce the attack further, it will only make you feel worse. At least this was my experience.
