This may explain why cravings such as anxiety, irritability, sweating and palpitations can occur years into abstinence, when a situation or person stimulates a drug related memory, creating a greater risk of relapse.

The concept of cannabis as a “gateway drug” has been debunked by the National Academies of Medicine in 1999. To the contrary, studies from Holland suggest that legal cannabis use actually decreased the likelihood of trying cocaine and amphetamines.
