People have insomnia and are irritable without ever smoking. Maybe cannabis just masking your problem and what you feel as "withdrawals" is not caused by cannabis. People often attribute causal relationship if it fits their limited knowledge.

You seem awfully defensive and are quick to tell people they are wrong (without citations) when they disparage marijuana.

The burden of proof, in science, is on who makes the statement. And science is the best set of procedures we know to get to the truth.
So you should at least accept the critic if you can't be bothered to search something that supports your claims.
But yeah, to the people saying it’s not real, try a few days of insomnia. The feeling of being high is nice, but not terribly addictive or unquittable in itself. But going through the crappy parts of withdrawal, feeling irritable, etc., and on top of that, not being able to sleep? It’s torture.
In the end I couldn’t quit cold turkey. It took me maybe six months of weaning off before I could quit.
Good luck to you.
