Thread: Anyone else's caused by cannabis?

    Anyone else's caused by cannabis?

    Ive been doing some reading on this since ive finally found its what i think ive suffered with for around 15 years. Until i found this forum i didnt know what it was, i just called it auto pilot and brain fog and thought i was the only one.

    However mine was since smoking cannabis as a dumb 15 year old. I smoked it for a while with no effects, then all of a sudden we got some new really strong smelling stuff and it had a bad effect on me. I accused the friends i was with of planning the meeting up to kill me (yes, it still gets brough up every now and then), thought my car seat was going to eject me, it was crazy. I didnt touch it for 10 years, until wondering if i could reverse it, i was careful though and at home and took my time, i didnt get the bad paranoia but it didnt cure it or make it worse, that was 5 years ago. I think its something to do with chemical balance in the brain but i havent read enough about it yet to understand properly.

    What being young and stupid can do huh

    Not sure when I was a kid a whitey was when you went pale and were throwing up. I wasn't sick or I'll, but had extreme paranoia and visualizations which was bizarre to me from just cannabis. I went to the doctor about not feeling with reality a few months later, he was craps and told me to get more sleep even though I had already said I was sleeping 12 hours a day. He then had me go to the mental health unit once a week for a day, I chose woodwork and did that with a 'doctor/wood work teacher' followed by a chat with a doctor and they said I was depressed due to cannabis effects. The depression I think was rubbish, but she said some people who smoke it get extreme reactions which can alter the chemicals in the brain, I think they were right about that. They put me on Prozac for months which I think made it worse and I took myself off them. I literally didn't give a toss about anything on them and I think they made this dreamy feeling even more real.

    That's just the trigger the anxiety was probably already there the
    Cannabis just triggered an attack.
