What Could Be The Withdrawal Symptom Of Marijuana?

Are there any withdrawal symptoms the morning after I quit smoking marijuana related to reduced cognitive performance, concentration and memory recollection? I understand that marijuana use may negatively affect the listed functions, however I am not sure whether withdrawal may also cause this.

Hi,

Withdrawal of all drugs is associated with reduced cognitive performance, but this usually improves with time. In some cases, however, there is protracted withdrawal in which the symptoms may last for a few months.

Best wishes.
