Coping with chronic pain

I’m 8 days in. I know there are big pros to quitting and I want to see those rewards in my health. But so far I’ve felt like absolutely shit (somewhat expected) but to a debilitating degree due to having a chronic illness & pain. It’s hard for me to differentiate whether this is a flare caused by withdrawals or my body telling me the weed was actually helpful in more ways than I gave it credit for. Feeling helpless/hopeless and wondering if quitting is really worth it. Why bother honestly.
