Get to your doc, your bi-polar disorder is likely the cause of the insomnia and depression as well as the social anxiety.

The only other advice I have is to quit self-medicating, it doesn't work. I know it's not easy, but seriously it's that simple. I used to have a serious drug habit...If I overcame mine, anybody can.

/edit
I just realized I probably didn't help at all.

I loved smoking pot. Seriously, I loved everything about it. It's been better than 10 years since I've done it, and I still miss it sometimes. I smoked better than an 1/8oz. a day, every day. I can tell you that until I changed playplaces, playthings, and playmates, I could not successfully quit. I quit for 18 mos.one time, As soon as I started hanging out w/ my old friends, it was a matter of weeks before I was smoking again.

Know that you need to do something productive. It doesn't matter what, but get out of your head...it's a dark and scary place if it's anything like mine. Join a club, get involved w/ charity work, just do something!

Don't smoke weed for 5 more minutes, when that 5 minutes is up, then work on the next 5 minutes and then the next....it gets better, I promise!
