This happened to me after 12 years of smoking an 8th or more every single day. I ended up in a psychiatric facility for 2 nights because i fell into psychosis and believed that members of my own family were trying to poison me. Now 8 months later and 8 months of not smoking any weed at all, i am feeling so much better!
@Repetoire When you smoke weed daily for years, you start to not reach REM sleep, which is why a lot of people say they don't dream when they're high. After years of not achieving REM sleep, your brain starts to fall into REM on it own while you're awake. I also was taking large amounts of psilocybin in the days leading up to this event so I believe that set the ball in motion.
@@jackmehoff771 my sister would smoke a lot of cannabis in front of me in closed rooms when i was very little (since i was born until i was 5 years old) and i remember having hallucinations and strange behavior after those exposures, could it be related? specially when i developed those symptoms so early after the smoke of the drug, after repeatedly, intense exposures, day after day
I ounce took 2 tabs of lsd and smoked 2 fat dabs, pretty dumb to say the least, it was the scariest moment of my entire life, afterwards I nearly felt as traumatized as when my brother ended his life or even more, sooo yea, that kinda tells you how insanely messed up of an experience it was but aye, some have experienced or are currently experiencing MUCH worse than what I’ve been through. I ended up following Jesus and now I’m free from the severe anxiety and depression from both of those experiences and just things that weren’t good for me like weed, porn, alcohol, nicotine ect I genuinely feel a billion times better. Whoever’s reading this rn, if your struggling with these things or just some of these things, turn to Jesus, give him a chance, he is real and loves you more than you can comprehend, I love you as well :)❤
I feel you. Took 3 hits of lsd (had taken lsd tons of times before) and smoked a joint dipped in hash oil at a festival. The bad trip I went into an hour later was the most traumatic thing I've ever experienced.
I fell into a psychosis the other night from weed and every since then I haven’t smoked since. I remember being extremely paranoid and feeling like I was on the edge from going full blown schizophrenic. Luckily it wore off and I decided I will never touch weed again. This is coming from someone who’s smoked it for nearly 10 years
One time when I was smoking weed, I felt like I was being watched by my family and they were judging me, I heard their muffled voices as if they were behind a wall, and then I realized that It was just the TV in the next room, it was scary.
@@marmosetmanJesus Christ m8😂 btw how did you manage to get so lucky, I’m completely sane and I don’t have shit for luck when it comes to finding a relationship

I was at home alone and heard the crickets chirping outside as police sirens. I was shaking, freezing cold and having a complete panic attack. I wasn’t sure whether I was dreaming or awake (I kept on feeling like I just woke up from a dream every few seconds). I could feel every bone in my face and every sensation was amplified. I really thought I’d gone mad. After 5+ hours I was ok. I was shaken and anxious for a few days afterwards. Never had a more terrifying experience in my life. I still sometimes feel like I am imagining that I recovered and that I’m actually insane. Bong hits, anxiety, psychiatric medication, no tolerance and a crap setting is a bad mix
I had it, & it is definitely real thing…FORGET ANYBODY WHO TELLS YOU…”It’s just weed”…You can definitely lose your mind behind it, take my word for it…I was close, if my parents didn’t realize something was wrong when they did, I could’ve lost it all…I was extremely agitated after not smoking, but the longer I smoked the more I had mental breakdowns…crying, condemning myself, paranoid…the voices came when I stopped smoking & that’s what hinted my parents to know something was wrong & I needed professional help…of course I thought I was completely fine even though I was hearing voices, & i definitely was opposed to going to the hospital, I even broke out when they took me, which led the hospital to calling the police on me, but all of that was out of having psychosis…till this day my homies think “it’s just weed” & I’m trippin for not smoking with them anymore.
@Lma818 Well, I'm now over a month weed free. Not quitting, but trying to take a long break. First 2 weeks were absolutely dogshit. Was so tired and irritable.
It happened to me & it was terrifying. I’m older, so I felt more solid in the experience. I recognized it as something that was happening to me, but wasn’t part of me. It was easy for me to determine it must be the weed.
I think some people just do too much weed without being ready or they’re not in a good environment or mental state. It’s easy to get anxious on weed so you need to learn to control your thoughts and find peace.
Happened to me about a month ago, I was in the park and people started arriving. As soon as they did I felt my reality shift. Started hearing voices and had a hard time telling what was real. What made it worse were people were watching me and being super judgmental 😢. Easily the worst day of my life and I will never forget they terrifying experience.
i went through the same thing w psychosis. you most likely didn’t have people watching you and judging you. for me, i hallucinated that and it seemed to be a common occurrence with others
Happened to me once. Was 21, smoked a whole joint of just hash after over a month break. Was hearing so many voices in my head and i couldn't stop it and i was legit worried i had schizophrenia. Hugged my pillow extra tight and slept it off.
I get that every-time I smoke, it’s why I don’t smoke💀 I be scared to death like I’m bout to die paranoid, hear screaming in my head, but on the surface I look calm and ready, moms spaghetti, nah but fr pot makes me feel very weird like a crazy person, pot heads will act like it’s amazing for everyone but some of us just don’t like it at all
I smoked weed when I was younger but only had little panic attack, heart racing, dying thoughts, but never psychosis. The only time I had psychosis was last Christmas when I sniffed amphetamine. It was the worst day of life, I had extreme paranoia that every human I saw and every police agencies of entire nation was after me to kill me and cremate me😂. I went to hospital told them I'm dying and and suspect you also want me dead😂. after 1 shot of lorezapan and 2 days of sleeping I was completely normal again. Never ever again. Drugs are Satan.

My sister in law’s nephew smoked it one time with friends when he was 19-went into psychosis and triggered schizophrenia. Had he not smoked -it probably never would have surfaced. He went off his meds 7 years later and walked into traffic on an interstate and was killed…
Weed psychosis is usually a trigger for people predisposed to schizophrenia because it happens when they are teenagers to early 20s as this is the same time schizophrenia triggers for everyone with it.
Yeah it seems to manifest symptoms earlier than it would otherwise. I think more research has to be done to conclude whether there is a casual link tho. Some say that since legalization in many places, and the increased potency rates of psychotic disorders have increased? I’m not sure about that. Weed makes me paranoid and my senses extremely distorted (including hearing) i don’t think that’s psychosis tho. But my few experiences have really given me a respect for the substance. Beforehand I though it would almost be like a more calming version of nicotine or being a bit drunk… I was so mistaken
I experienced this when I was 17 (I am 35 now). My family has no history of mental illness. I was in boarding school in England at the time and a naive teenager; frequently smoking weed in the evening in the bathroom with my roommate after ‘lights out’. I remember feeling more and more paranoid in the weeks leading up to my psychotic episode and then one night - wham - I had a full on psychosis. I believed my roommate was reading my thoughts and that I could communicate telephatically, coupled with extreme paranoia and anxiety. Stupidly, I continued to smoke marijuana for some after, though rarely, as I was in a ‘stoner group’ and simply couldn’t make sense of what was happening to me. I then quit. It took many months for the delusion and psychosis to subside. Luckily, it eventually passed but it took me many years to fully get over this horrific time period. I cannot emphasise enough how dangerous cannabis can be, particulary for teenagers. A substance that can cause such mental disturbance in otherwise previously healthy individuals is absolutey horrific. I can only caution others to not take the risk - your mental health is everything, without it, what do you have? Don’t play russian roulette with it.
@@tamplushboy8452 The big difference between the two is that cannabis can cause life altering mental illness. Anxiety, paranoia, psychosis. Studies show that 30-50% of schizophrenia cases could have been avoided had cannabis not been consumed. That’s potentially millions of individuals that could have lived a life without serious mental illness had they not consumed cannabis. In my opinion, this is what sets it so far apart from alcohol, and why it’s far more dangerous.
You literally abused weed, wtf do you think would happen? If you were a normal person smoking once a week or twice then you would have been alright. Kids like you wanna be high all day which is awful for the brain, I hope you learned your lesson
I am 48, started smoking weed heavily at 40, was in and out of mental hospitals in the past 8 years. Didn't realize it was the weed causing psychosis until 2023 when I went to the mental hospital twice and got arrested twice for possession. I am lucky to be alive and I am here to warn you about the dangers of the modern weed. It's so strong that it will give you psychosis and make you do some really dangerous things!
Thank you 🙏 I grew up around chronic users, smoked chronically myself and associated with chronic users and it is a real thing. I think I met two ppl who smoked chronically and who seemed stable, but I can not be certain of this. The rest, including myself really played with our health. The majority ended up on anti depressants, anti psychotics and opioids to manage the fall out from years of abuse. I grew up in a house with three chronic smokers and I can remember terming their “episodes” as drug induced psychosis at the time, I was just a kid and so I don’t know where I had picked this term up from but the madness that I witnessed and had to endure felt like psychosis to me. I argue this all the time, because ppl who don’t have intimate experiences with this drug think it is harmless because it’s natural and it’s a plant, but let me tell you from experience it is anything but harmless. I just about lost my mind growing up in that environment, nothing sane about smoking weed!
Now I don’t know if I’m depressed or weed psychosis cos mine happened after a high THC knocked me off. I was like running insane since then I have tried to treat myself went for iv flushing still yet I lost pleasure in everything I did before. Hardly feel happy but irritated. It’s really insane. The way I see things aren’t same anymore it’s like I lost a little touch with emotions and the world but I’m normal. I know that I’m not okay. It’s scary man!
I once heard my older brother say that drugs are "the immaculate deception." And I think with weed, especially with how it's now marketed, this is especially true. I think the only real differences between weed and other drugs is that 1) it's hard to die instantly from weed (unlike other drugs) and 2) the withdrawal isn't as severe as other drugs. That's it. That being said, the withdrawal sucks and it's not a breeze. And weed can kill you slowly, destroy your life, bring out the absolute worst in you, just like any drug can. I agree, nothing sane about it. It's poison marketed as candy so we'll continue to kill ourselves. Thank God the Father for Jesus Christ, his Son! He's the way, the truth, and the life.
It happened to me, I even saw a portal opening from lights, the scariest thing of it all is that I attempted suicide during it not even realizing I am about to kill myself. I was not myself, it felt like someone else took control over me. I was lucky I survived.
The weed nowadays is way too strong for me, and I understand. I think I had a similar experience from smoking very potent weed. Have you ever done psychedelics?
Weird, I have taken some serious bad trips before and the last thing I wanted to happen was die… I was terrified that I would die actually. the fact that you tried killing your self is a bit strange because usually people are scared of dying when they have a bad trip
Devils lettuce was opening up the gates for spirits to take over. You have to be very mentally strong with substances. I don't think weed is inherently bad but with high thc products it can cause psychological damage to people who are unprepared
I also seen a portal through a lightbulb and actually tried to go through it. The light actually went out and then I collapsed off my bed (I was standing on my bed towards the light). I also thought my family were trying to have me killed for whatever reason. This weed nowadays is just unnatural!! I regret smoking it so much (To anyone out there, QUIT QUIT QUIT IT! Psychosis is at your doorstep) I smoked from 12 to 18 years old landed me in SOLITARY CONFINEMENT of the Dallas County Jail. It’s not worth it.
It is a actual thing, there is actual studies done you can find with little effort, where the catch is, is that the % of people that get weed psychosis mirrors the % of people who experience psychosis in regular life, for some people, normal reality is already slippery. These people shouldn't do any drugs. The average person who is mentally sound will never experience this.
@@Reachzach some people are just prone to these types of reactions. Terrible lottery to win. Disassociatave drugs are rough on people, especially weed where you can still have the will to fight the disassociation, this mental friction can cause a metaphysical fight that manifest as anxiety, paranoia, bouts of short term psychosis. Etc. Stronger drugs don't give you a chance to fight the disassociation, hense the adverse effect of cannabis.
@@Reachzach if you ever had a bad trip on mushrooms or LSD, it's for the same reasons. Your trying to hold on to being you, that friction manifest in very unpleasant ways. The weed is shining a light on a part of your personality your afraid to bring to the surface, your mind is desperately trying to protect itself from something bubbling to the surface, that maybe your ignoring or been suppressing.
@@Reachzach when I was going through medical problems( looming death type) weed would drive me actually nuts. It would bring my fear of death to the surface, and this would manifest as shear panic, fear, shaking sweating, intense paranoia, but after a while with fighting through my health issues, therapy, embarrassing death, welcoming it, I could smoke weed again and just enjoy it, I no longer needed to fight, so the adverse effects went away, this is just me of course. You'll have your own fight to fight my friend. ( Also sorry for going all Buddhism over here lol)
@@Mr88CHEVY it’s alright, I just don’t do it anymore. It’s dysphoric to me now. I’m more thinking my brain chemistry doesn’t agree with it. I know someone who loves mushrooms and dmt and mdma- done them many times no issues but weed they freak out and get super paranoid and anxious. Sometimes it’s truly just one substance that doesn’t sit well and isint even a persons thoughts but just a chemical reaction. Take care.
After i nearly died in a (metaphorical, but almost literal) dark and depressing hole because of cocaine addiction, i see now Weed as a bless. It helps me with good thoughts, brings me peace. And if i only smoked weed in my life, things would have been much more colorized But everything is possible, our brain is able to remodel itself by power of Will, and faith. God bless you all 🙏
I believe that it’s very real. My 20 year old son is a different person from smoking weed, I’m not sure that he’s in a psychosis state( in its technical term) but it has definitely changed his whole person. 😢 I wish he could realize this!
I’m exact same boat, am 20 and smoking heavily past 2 years now, can’t seem to kick it and when I don’t have it’s like the whole body feels different (withdrawal), suggest him to therapy see if he has a trauma or something that he’s trying to escape from. Even if he exercises a lot trauma doesn’t leave the brain
It IS real. Google “Cannabis Induced Psychosis.” There are many papers written about on it now too. I know one person that went through it 3xs. Was hospitalized each time. I know another person that went through it 2xs-hospitalized the second time. But they both needed medication to help them come out each time.
this happened to my boyfriend recently, and he still hasn't moved away, even though it's been about 5 days. I'm very scared, he's changed, it seems to me that he's getting better, but sometimes he has paranoia attacks and I get so scared that it's schizophrenia and he'll have to live on pills all his life. he's been smoking weed since he was 15, now he's 18. we smoked weed every day for six months, and I sometimes noticed signs of paranoia during that period, but it didn't seem serious to me. but recently we tried to move to New York, and it turned out very unsuccessfully. before moving, we reduced our marijuana consumption and smoked 1-2 times a week. and when we were in New York, it so happened that we smoked for 2 or 3 days in a row. and then the fuck started. he became terribly paranoid, he said that everyone was looking at him, that the police were going to take him away, that some drugs had been put in his cigarette. as a result, he got to the emergency hospital, but stayed there for only a day, the doctor let him go and said that everything would be fine if he didn't smoke anymore. but it's been 4 days since we got back to his parents, and he's still acting weird. he has such a lost look and sometimes has bouts of paranoia, and he still denies that he had cannabis psychosis in New York. he says that he feels not in reality and I can see in his eyes that this is so. I really hope that he will be able to return to normal, but God, I'm so scared. we don't have money or insurance to go to the doctor, we are emigrants and don't even know English well enough. I just try to believe in the best, but every time I read the stories of people who, even after a year, have barely recovered from psychosis or are now suffering from schizophrenia, I get so scared....
If he’s not hearing voices in his head then he might just have strong derealization. I had something similar last year and it took me a while to accept how delusional and crazy my thoughts were but once I did and am now able to look back at it my advice would be to try and ground him back to reality maybe like a super meaningful gift or something personal can help ground him. Just know the state of mind is temporary have him smoke cbd with no thc that will get rid of the psycho activity that thc can cause.
Happened to me when i was 15 ate a whole edible and I started hearing some one whispering my name, I would look back and no one was there, I also started seeing things that weren’t actually there. Horrible experience don’t know I manage to get through it without freaking out
Happened to me yesterday, was scared to death but managed to get thru it some how, I called my gf and from there she just did her best to calm me down and it felt as if I was slowly coming back to a stable level of reality where it wasn’t bending.
Did the effects of the psycosis last after intoxication? Beacuse simply having psycotic symptoms dosent mean you have real psycosis it means you had an intense experience. A high dose of Psychedelics can cause a state of mind that has similar symptoms to psycosis but goes away after the drug is removed from your system
Now I don’t know if I’m depressed or weed psychosis cos mine happened after a high THC knocked me off. I was like running insane since then I have tried to treat myself went for iv flushing still yet I lost pleasure in everything I did before. Hardly feel happy but irritated. It’s really insane. The way I see things aren’t same anymore it’s like I lost a little touch with emotions and the world but I’m normal. I know that I’m not okay. It’s scary man!
Glad there’s videos like this. My psychosis story: I’ve never been the most stable kid in the world but I didn’t know that and after seeing a bunch of positive things about weed online and all my friends doing it, I decided to try it. I then got addicted for years and kept going into psychosis for months on end and going right back into it as soon as I left the psych ward. It got so bad I made an attempt on my life to “go to my father” which I thought was god. I am now 2 years sober and I’ve never felt better in my entire life. Im so glad I gave that shit up and I’m really living my best life. If you got this far, thank you and have a great day. 🫶
Its the high THC combined with low CBD level weed which is also grew with awful fertilisers, pgrs and other nasties to boost as much quantity and thickness in buds. The weed today is like heroin. It needs a serious check over and safety overhaul
I think this happened to me but I’m hoping someone can confirm: I’m not a heavy weed smoker by any means, but one time I smoked before heading into a shopping mall with a friend. I only took a few hits, but they were quite thick. Only a few minutes later when I started to feel it in my body, I starting panicking inside the mall. I felt like everyone was watching me and knew I was high I felt like something or someone was in my body controlling me physically Even though I felt like everyone was watching me, I then began to feel like I wasn’t actually present and instead hallucinating once my friend told me that no one was even paying attention to me I felt like I saw duplicates of the same people walking around I felt as if I was going to die/be punished for being high This only lasted for about an hour or two, then after that I seemed to calm down. But this whole time I thought it was a bad high, and this only happened once. But what if it was psychosis?
I mean I’ve definitely had these moments before, I’m not sure if it’s psychosis. To me they were just panic attacks, the one and only time I did a stronger drug than cannabis I heard voices talking to me, talking about me, and laughing at me. I tried plugging me ear but it didn’t affect the voice at all, I got my brother to take me home and I slept. When I woke up at 2 am I looked around, then at my hand, when I realized I was myself again it was a moment of pure bliss. The night before was the most frightened I’ve ever been in my life
I read this and can stop laughing lol don't mistake weed for that homegrown rubbish they be growing in rooms with light bulbs but you probley got a high on it and it turned you paranoid cause your body wanted use to it it sent u in a daze that's why u saw doubles I remember when I first smoke weed I use to get the giggles
@@kikiranks1ify you don't know anything about weed do you? nomatter where it's grown it's a percentage thing, even jamaican sess you can smoke enough of to get high. There's no difference between homegrown or processed weed.
Definitely stop smoking weed for a while man, my friend is now in a psych ward with psychosis and schizophrenia due to weed. and he won’t ever be the same again. It’s really sad.
@@toshh7360I understand this. I’ve been in the psych ward 3 times and have had very long tiring battles with psychosis and addiction. It will get better for your friend but it takes a long time. It’s been 5 years since my last episode and I’m still recovering. The best thing you can do for your friend is be supportive, cause that post psychosis depression hits hard.
I got 6 years no weed, I used to smoke everyday all day. Then I became an alcoholic I learned, there’s such things called alcoholic schizophrenia, when I got sober , I had psychosis for weeks.but it eventually went away, no medications no doctor no counseling just having faith it would cure, and exercise! Staying fit, life is way better no weed no drugs no alcohol, all you need is eat healthy, exercise, sleep enough, and be a good neighbor to everyone
I’m not trying to be “That Guy” but when I switched over to smoking organic weed, meaning that there’s nothing inside the cartridge but pure resin, stopping was a lot easier. I did not have the same side effects or the cold chills I got before I switched.
I was a heavy user for 7 years but the last few months of smoking screwed me up. One of the last times I smoked I was sitting on the back porch half a joint in when a god damn spaceship flew above my field. My dog saw it as well, made her hair stand up. Whether that thing was real or not it felt evil and put the fear of God into me and the few times I smoked after that, years apart, instantly put me back into the paranoid terror sensation that I felt that night.
Weed shows you the spiritual side of things. So i wouldnt doubt that you saw a real spaceship coupled with the ability to sense the spirituality behind it. Lots of sober people would freak out from a ufo so id imagine being high could intensify the panic and existential crisis behind it. Id imagine its like not thinking rats are scary until you actually encounter one. But yea, you most likely werent hallucinating but the weed did make you percieve the experience from a deeper perspective compared to you just being sober.
Well, the spaceship was real, the us government had come forth and announced that they have been hiding them and the existence of aliens for decades to keep the public from panic. But, as someone else stated...the weed opens up a part of the brain and allows us to see the real world for what it really is and what really around us at all times...and to a normal person...you just wouldn't be able to handle the truth.
Ty for clarifying this. Used to date a guy who would accuse of me trying to do evil things to him out of nowhere and the next day, would say that he was an alien. Always thought maybe he has schizophrenia. The relationship ended (because he didn't feel 'right' about me) but my heart goes out to him - I hope he's healing. ❤
Had a pal who went and murdered someone and tried to kill someone else. Had his first smoke in years and just flipped almost there and then. Judge didn't take psychosis in to account as he made an conscious decision to smoke it, he went to jail for a long time. Sad tale all round, he was a good bloke.
Happened to my friend, except he isolated himself for months before-hand so its hard to determine what truly was the cause of his psychosis, i believe it was a combination of isolation, depression and constant substance use.
I saw this happen to an older guy, 60 yrs. old. He had smoked since a kid and and the weed today is so much higher today than in the 70s and early 80s. He had some mental issues anyway. Well, he cracked, lost all his money to pay lawyers because he had been arrested numerous times for threatening people. He basically flipped. I warned him years ago about his excessive weed smoking and asked him to clear his mind, stop, walk at the beach. Well, now hopefully he quit. I lost contact over 3 years ago because he was dangerous...so sad. He also got a legal prescription for this crap by a doctor who did not know his mental situation. So, he was legally poisoning his mind
I've been diagnosed with 7 different Disorders . I've been on 9 medications for about 6 years. Dexter's From all of them. I have been taking marijuana for a number of years and that is helped with my disorders.
What he’s describing is one of 2 outcomes of cannabis use: 1) the activation of a psychiatric disorder the individual was already previously predisposed to. This is more likely to occur if the individual is still in adolescence as the prodromal phase of such disorders (ie schizophrenia) are typically present during adolescence. 2) withdrawals that mimic a psychiatric disorder but are actually just a dopamine deficit/withdrawals that the individual may not be accustom to, which may result in bizarre behaviour that mirrors psychosis or even manic/depressive symptoms. All depends on their age, how much and how long they’ve been using it. Usually new/inexperienced users.
Wow. My brother is presenting no 2. He’s 38 and has done coke before but currently only weed. He’s also being extremely aggressive how he never was. 6 months of very heavy use..pls tell me there’s hope for him…
Also one more point to make is that there's no way to determine if the Marijuana smoked wasn't laced with something more potent like a psychedelic substance such as pcp for example which some can be undetectable by standard blood and urine tests.
It's a trigger for schizoprhenia, It normally pops up late 20s. but can be triggered early with weed. All the altered perception can send you down your "intended" route later in life, just a little early thanks to the drug.
this exact thing happened to me, i was smoking cheap (probably laced) wax and any time id smoke id hear voices and they wouldn't go away. The voices would become more prominent whether i smoked wax or flower and didnt go away for 5 months. I only started to feel better after quitting cold turkey and got on prozac. I was extremely paranoid due to a sexual assault i suffered from at the beginning of college and thought there were cameras in my dorm room. I was too scared to eat in the university dining hall because i thought everyone knew what happened to me.
I was an occasional smoker and one day back in winter of 2019, I decided to get high from some flowers I bought from a guy I played ball with. It was a horrible night. I felt like the voice in my head was repeating the same things. I was eating cinnamon buns and quickly became repulsed by them. I went and laid down and started shaking until I fell asleep. I thought about calling my mom to take me to the hospital but I decided to just ride it out. This stayed with me for a looong time. I can say that my life remained functioning but I was silently suffering. About a year ago, I started taking Prozac. I will say, Prozac saved my life (along with supportive gf and family).
This is an allergic reaction, it’s happened to me the 2 times I’ve smoked thc, & a confirmed diagnosis from the medical professionals. It’s not always same shoe firsts all
I have heard inaudible whispers and seen dark shadows when I was a heavy user for a short period. I no longer drink or smoke ever, and there are no lasting side effects.
Yeah I struggled with the psychosis every time I smoked a decent amount. It was difficult to stay sane until I watched videos on withdrawal symptoms etc. I have never needed help and I avoided being in public but the last time was definitely more intense than I remembered from when I was younger. I tried to keep my most insane thoughts to myself as I rode it out to sobriety. Definitely a hell of a ride.
My son died by suicide. He was a heavy user of marijuana and for many years. He became paranoid and probably had weed psychosis. He was anxious beyond belief as he tried weening off weed, but just during the weeks before jabs his anxiety was off the rails. Who knew it was weed cause everyone was a little crazy. He started a group but just couldn’t stick with it. Using weed multiple times a day for years is not a healthy option. I miss him every day. He was 40, had a new partner and many future plans, but the weed habit and lockdowns and new work due to lockdowns just were too much. Thanks PM of Canada for legalizing weed without testing for safety and overuse.
It’s not the weed that’s bad. It’s just the people smoking it… I had to quit too because it gave me anxiety problems and I felt like I was on the brink of psychosis but end of the day you can’t blame the weed for that. It is just not for everyone
Weed psychosis is a real thing and happens to many heavy users after years of smoking regularly! Like after maybe 2-5 years or even after 7-8 years later or some even more(depends in person to person). So get off weed when you know it’s making you paranoid and make sure to not smoke it at all. If possible just quit weed even if it doesn’t make you anxious or paranoid and spread awareness. This change is must!
I smoked weed on occasion and was not a regular smoker. I stopped because I didn't like the way it made me feel anymore. It started to give me a headache the next day and just made me sleep and binge eat. I'm done.
This happened to me back when I was 18 or so. I’m almost 50 now. I was a mess for months. I thought I was losing my mind. My whole life went to shit because I smoked some pot. I at one point just wanted to die. I was afraid of everything. I kept feeling like nothing around me was real. I thought I’d never be normal again. Thank God I finally got past it.
I would love to talk to this doctor about an experience that happened to me. I almost need it to put my mind at ease. I think he would also find my story academically interesting. VERY LONG STORY SHORT: I experienced a severe trauma when I was 18 that was vaguely associated with weed in my mind. It was a very bad car crash that happened when I had inactive THC in my blood. Didn’t touch weed for years. But after 5 years I wanted to ease my anxiety and depression during a bad time in my life, so I tried weed again at a friend’s house. I took one small hit, and then I immediately had a psychotic break that lasted I think about a week.
I need more info. Does this weed psychosis only entail what you mentioned in the video? Can it take form in anger? Or depression? Lack of motivation or urge to harm someone. Maybe being easily angered? Or is that just possibly depression
I was already diagnosed with malaise & fatigue, allergy unspecified before this happened. Now I don’t know if I’m depressed or weed psychosis cos mine happened after a high THC knocked me off. I was like running insane since then I have tried to treat myself went for iv flushing still yet I lost pleasure in everything I did before. Hardly feel happy but irritated. It’s really insane. The way I see things aren’t same anymore it’s like I lost a little touch with emotions and the world but I’m normal. I know that I’m not okay. It’s scary man! I need help!
From what I’ve heard is that since it is so common in younger individuals that in a lot of cases it can actually just be an early sign of schizophrenia which in itself is amplified by drugs and alcohol
I have met a lot of smokers through the years and have had one person tell me that his sister could not use cannabis because she was allergic to it. I have not seen everyone and will take you at your word. I’ve just never even heard of this until recently. I suppose because of the laws changing and more people owning thei rights. I oppose any law on me about my body unless I present a direct danger to others.
Just an opinion: Why would medication be prescribed to someone for something they actually don’t have is the real question. When really all that’s needed is to cease the intake of all forms marijuana, increase of nutritionally dense food & water, & to help push the (now tainted) THC out of the body by just simply sweating. This can be done via exercise or just by sitting in a steam room. But shower as soon as possible. Don’t want these toxins to be absorbed back into the bloodstream. Last but not least, one of the most important…adequate sleep. Sleep deprivation can definitely exacerbate this whole ordeal when it comes to the psycho-emotional aspect of things . So yea- No need for the antipsychotic(s)- shit fucks up your brain chemistry. The weed has done a number on it as it is. Don’t need the devils candy adding to it. Just saying.
Lol😂😂😂😂, I thank God everytime I can that I got anti-psychotics. For me, I stopped smoking but the symptoms didn't stop at all,. When it's really serious, just waiting it out will not stop the psychosis but yeah the medicines can be really heavy on your mental health, I stopped against my doctor's advice and made sure not to ever smoke weed cos that will trigger it
I was sober from weed for 10+ years, decided to go all in on weed - smoked over $1000 worth of weed in 1 month (only flower - no vapes/dabs). QUIT. Was waking un in sweat daily, thought it was kind of weird. No appetite - lost 30lb. 2 weeks later - BAM - complete mental breakdown/psychosis that lasted 2 months. I am now fully recovered., I'm one zero meds. The antipsychotic meds they did give me ended up causing more schizo side effects than they were solving. I was worried i was fucked for life. Got off all the meds - and I'm completely fine. Stay safe and dont do drugs. Zero mental health issues before this - and I was mid 30s when I went into psychosis from weed.
I can imagine, all weed you can find is toxic, been grown very badly therefore you ingest carcinogens and toxins. I would like to see a study done with natural weed that contains no bad pathogens and is grown in a natural way, and also non gmo strains should be considered, as nowadays who knows what strains have been genetically modified
Stick with the government inspected, government approved, government legal stuff that’s pure with no additives, and the potency strengths are all measured and printed on the outside of the package like what it sold in Canada.
This is an atmospheric thing. I noticed it living with my ex friend/ roommate. Very negative energy and atmosphere can draw bad energy to you and you just go down a bad spiral. I live alone now and smoke way less and am perfectly fine. Also had anxiety when I smoked living with my parents at the time. You think people are out to get you. But that’s all personal experience. You go out to a restaurant and no body is looking at you or talking about you. It’s all created in your head. Weak minds can’t handle it. Sorry to say but it’s the truth. Try taking some magic mushrooms or lcd in a bad atmosphere, it’s the same thing
I started seeing hallucinations when I was getting sober from heavy alcohol use. I would hear screaming like someone was dying. I couldn’t sleep because of it. I was sweating really bad too.
I had psychosis after doing edibles for about a month. I took 100mg total. Then a week after I split into psychosis. Spent 2 months hospitalized. I’m 37 not a young teen. History of depression/anxiety but now they are saying I’m bipolar. I tested negative for cannabis so they don’t know about it. I’m not bipolar…

im 34 since the age of 5 i have been suffering from “stomach migraines”. at the age of 25/26 i started getting bad anxiety/panic attacks. now the doctors saying there not stomach migraines its weed psychosis. even though my symptoms have all been exactly the same. since i was 5 i get these stomach migraines every 3-5 months. up until i was 25/26. since i started with marijuana. its still the same 3-5 months
Yes you’re correct that’s exactly the problem! Stick with the government inspected, government approved, government legal stuff that’s pure with no additives, and the (very low) potency strengths are all measured and printed on the outside of the package like what is legally sold in Canada.
3-4 weeks clean...never better. Took it slow but also fast. Went from (multi) daily to once a week for 2-3 weeks and then stopped entirely. Im 21 trying to move on and to get my Class A CDL
First time ever!!! Happened to me and thc gummy’s!!!!! Had full blown panic attacks ER for 8-9 hrs tell the paranoia went away I was back to myself!! I didn’t have long times thank JESUS my SAVIOR!!!! I can never ever even smell the stuff and the benefits it’s offers and I can’t even have it! Because of this dang disorder! Worst crap in my life. Personally
I smoked a large amount of hhc, an got it. I barely smoke less than 1 year with low daily use. But that day i took 2 blinkers of stiiizy hhc an got out side in my town talking loud about loving meth, crack, herion & dmt + ketamine. Never did any of that. Was say “im mentally ill i need help” well my wishes came true a good cop with training in mental health knew what was wrong an he interviewed me about my life i gave him what he asked, as best to my brain could handle. He offered an ambulance an they took me to the hospital they tested my blood and yup high levels of thc. They put me on too much medication they over medicated me so fun with that. The meds were to me enhancing the symptoms of psychosis i felt as if the cna’s were actors cuz of there body language and tones of voice, it was like i could do anything without consequences of action, i did know to not commit crimes cuz of documentary shows i watch. Im 20 years old this is recent back in October. I got sent to a state hospital where they dialed in my meds and yeah it helped i also still feel like they helped me more than local hospital.
I’ve managed dispensaries for the last decade, I’ve seen this behavior a lot in my line of work. Fortunately it’s pretty rare, maybe like 1 out of a thousand users will experience a significant episode. Usually it’s not that bad, they just get weird for a little while and it wears off when they’re sober. But there have been cases where people genuinely frighten me, like openly talking about self harm a sharing paranoid delusions.
I think people are still ignorant about this stuff. Me and my husband used to smoke heavy but he was also abusing cold medicine behind my back and when he started to have manic attacks alot of the time he was admitted or arrested idiots said it was because of the high thc in his system.
it happens to me very frequently and i still smoke lol. i’m 20 and i’ve used weed and other drugs since age 11 and around age 14-15 i started hearing voices and having extreme paranoia. it’s very uncomfortable.
I’m 18 and I’m pretty sure I’m developing it have not gone psyco yet but after work I go hit the sauna and almost every time I walk into the house to change my brain goes blank and I can’t think straight. I have been hearing voices in my head my whole life though. I have a productive voice and a procrastination voice. Can someone tell me if I’m going psyco. Also out of no where I will get this insane adrenaline dopamine hit and it feels so amazing I don’t know how to explain it, I feel like I’m ruling the world
This happened to me after 12 years of smoking an 8th or more every single day. I ended up in a psychiatric facility for 2 nights because i fell into psychosis and believed that members of my own family were trying to poison me. Now 8 months later and 8 months of not smoking any weed at all, i am feeling so much better!
Please don’t go back
Must have been laced dawg
I have to tell you something: it wasnt the weed. Maybe a lack of sleep but not the weed.
@Repetoire When you smoke weed daily for years, you start to not reach REM sleep, which is why a lot of people say they don't dream when they're high. After years of not achieving REM sleep, your brain starts to fall into REM on it own while you're awake. I also was taking large amounts of psilocybin in the days leading up to this event so I believe that set the ball in motion.
@@jackmehoff771 my sister would smoke a lot of cannabis in front of me in closed rooms when i was very little (since i was born until i was 5 years old) and i remember having hallucinations and strange behavior after those exposures, could it be related? specially when i developed those symptoms so early after the smoke of the drug, after repeatedly, intense exposures, day after day
8 days sober here and thank god 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Trying to get to one day here 🙏🏾😢
I ounce took 2 tabs of lsd and smoked 2 fat dabs, pretty dumb to say the least, it was the scariest moment of my entire life, afterwards I nearly felt as traumatized as when my brother ended his life or even more, sooo yea, that kinda tells you how insanely messed up of an experience it was but aye, some have experienced or are currently experiencing MUCH worse than what I’ve been through. I ended up following Jesus and now I’m free from the severe anxiety and depression from both of those experiences and just things that weren’t good for me like weed, porn, alcohol, nicotine ect I genuinely feel a billion times better. Whoever’s reading this rn, if your struggling with these things or just some of these things, turn to Jesus, give him a chance, he is real and loves you more than you can comprehend, I love you as well :)❤
Thank you. I kept getting calm when I thought of Jesus and trusting Jesus
Amen in Jesus Name
God bless you, stay safe brother 🙏🏻
I feel you. Took 3 hits of lsd (had taken lsd tons of times before) and smoked a joint dipped in hash oil at a festival. The bad trip I went into an hour later was the most traumatic thing I've ever experienced.
Thank you 🙏🏽 ❤
I fell into a psychosis the other night from weed and every since then I haven’t smoked since. I remember being extremely paranoid and feeling like I was on the edge from going full blown schizophrenic. Luckily it wore off and I decided I will never touch weed again. This is coming from someone who’s smoked it for nearly 10 years

I was at home alone and heard the crickets chirping outside as police sirens. I was shaking, freezing cold and having a complete panic attack. I wasn’t sure whether I was dreaming or awake (I kept on feeling like I just woke up from a dream every few seconds). I could feel every bone in my face and every sensation was amplified. I really thought I’d gone mad. After 5+ hours I was ok. I was shaken and anxious for a few days afterwards. Never had a more terrifying experience in my life. I still sometimes feel like I am imagining that I recovered and that I’m actually insane. Bong hits, anxiety, psychiatric medication, no tolerance and a crap setting is a bad mix

It happened to me & it was terrifying. I’m older, so I felt more solid in the experience. I recognized it as something that was happening to me, but wasn’t part of me. It was easy for me to determine it must be the weed.
it's the weed, yea, your not schizo-effective which means schizophrenia brought on when high. Why can't people who are schizophrenic admit it? lmao
Ur bugging quit
nah somebody laced you😭😭
Out of all the drugs I did weed messed my mind up the most it’s certain people the ones that just naturally trance deep thinkers noone will understand
Lol someone thought you weren't important and gave you the snickle fritz bags. Damn, you got got 😅
I think some people just do too much weed without being ready or they’re not in a good environment or mental state. It’s easy to get anxious on weed so you need to learn to control your thoughts and find peace.
Lol

That’s not how it works
Spoken like a true burnout.
Just explaining it away lmao
Happened to me about a month ago, I was in the park and people started arriving. As soon as they did I felt my reality shift. Started hearing voices and had a hard time telling what was real. What made it worse were people were watching me and being super judgmental 😢. Easily the worst day of my life and I will never forget they terrifying experience.
Talk to him and he will give you pharmaceutical garbage don't be so weak to blame it on the weed. He is a pill 💊 pushers
i went through the same thing w psychosis. you most likely didn’t have people watching you and judging you. for me, i hallucinated that and it seemed to be a common occurrence with others
Happened to me once. Was 21, smoked a whole joint of just hash after over a month break. Was hearing so many voices in my head and i couldn't stop it and i was legit worried i had schizophrenia. Hugged my pillow extra tight and slept it off.
Gone the next day?
Im so happy im not addicted to weed anymore😮
Facts!
I get that every-time I smoke, it’s why I don’t smoke💀

I smoked weed when I was younger but only had little panic attack, heart racing, dying thoughts, but never psychosis. The only time I had psychosis was last Christmas when I sniffed amphetamine. It was the worst day of life, I had extreme paranoia that every human I saw and every police agencies of entire nation was after me to kill me and cremate me😂. I went to hospital told them I'm dying and and suspect you also want me dead😂. after 1 shot of lorezapan and 2 days of sleeping I was completely normal again. Never ever again. Drugs are Satan.

Gotta smoke the legal stuff for y’all generation it’s THCA stay away from plug/dealer bud it’s beyond dangerous
My sister in law’s nephew smoked it one time with friends when he was 19-went into psychosis and triggered schizophrenia. Had he not smoked -it probably never would have surfaced. He went off his meds 7 years later and walked into traffic on an interstate and was killed…
Weed psychosis is usually a trigger for people predisposed to schizophrenia because it happens when they are teenagers to early 20s as this is the same time schizophrenia triggers for everyone with it.
If they have schizophrenia signs are present way before they smoke weed or eat edibles
Yeah it seems to manifest symptoms earlier than it would otherwise. I think more research has to be done to conclude whether there is a casual link tho. Some say that since legalization in many places, and the increased potency rates of psychotic disorders have increased? I’m not sure about that. Weed makes me paranoid and my senses extremely distorted (including hearing) i don’t think that’s psychosis tho. But my few experiences have really given me a respect for the substance. Beforehand I though it would almost be like a more calming version of nicotine or being a bit drunk… I was so mistaken
💯% true.
I experienced this when I was 17 (I am 35 now). My family has no history of mental illness.
I was in boarding school in England at the time and a naive teenager; frequently smoking weed in the evening in the bathroom with my roommate after ‘lights out’.
I remember feeling more and more paranoid in the weeks leading up to my psychotic episode and then one night - wham - I had a full on psychosis. I believed my roommate was reading my thoughts and that I could communicate telephatically, coupled with extreme paranoia and anxiety.
Stupidly, I continued to smoke marijuana for some after, though rarely, as I was in a ‘stoner group’ and simply couldn’t make sense of what was happening to me. I then quit.
It took many months for the delusion and psychosis to subside. Luckily, it eventually passed but it took me many years to fully get over this horrific time period. I cannot emphasise enough how dangerous cannabis can be, particulary for teenagers. A substance that can cause such mental disturbance in otherwise previously healthy individuals is absolutey horrific. I can only caution others to not take the risk - your mental health is everything, without it, what do you have? Don’t play russian roulette with it.
Bros acting like weed super badd like alcohol is any better
@@tamplushboy8452 The big difference between the two is that cannabis can cause life altering mental illness. Anxiety, paranoia, psychosis. Studies show that 30-50% of schizophrenia cases could have been avoided had cannabis not been consumed. That’s potentially millions of individuals that could have lived a life without serious mental illness had they not consumed cannabis.
In my opinion, this is what sets it so far apart from alcohol, and why it’s far more dangerous.
You literally abused weed, wtf do you think would happen? If you were a normal person smoking once a week or twice then you would have been alright. Kids like you wanna be high all day which is awful for the brain, I hope you learned your lesson
I am 48, started smoking weed heavily at 40, was in and out of mental hospitals in the past 8 years. Didn't realize it was the weed causing psychosis until 2023 when I went to the mental hospital twice and got arrested twice for possession. I am lucky to be alive and I am here to warn you about the dangers of the modern weed. It's so strong that it will give you psychosis and make you do some really dangerous things!
Thank you 🙏
I grew up around chronic users, smoked chronically myself and associated with chronic users and it is a real thing.
I think I met two ppl who smoked chronically and who seemed stable, but I can not be certain of this. The rest, including myself really played with our health. The majority ended up on anti depressants, anti psychotics and opioids to manage the fall out from years of abuse. I grew up in a house with three chronic smokers and I can remember terming their “episodes” as drug induced psychosis at the time, I was just a kid and so I don’t know where I had picked this term up from but the madness that I witnessed and had to endure felt like psychosis to me. I argue this all the time, because ppl who don’t have intimate experiences with this drug think it is harmless because it’s natural and it’s a plant, but let me tell you from experience it is anything but harmless. I just about lost my mind growing up in that environment, nothing sane about smoking weed!
Now I don’t know if I’m depressed or weed psychosis cos mine happened after a high THC knocked me off. I was like running insane since then I have tried to treat myself went for iv flushing still yet I lost pleasure in everything I did before. Hardly feel happy but irritated. It’s really insane.

I once heard my older brother say that drugs are "the immaculate deception." And I think with weed, especially with how it's now marketed, this is especially true. I think the only real differences between weed and other drugs is that 1) it's hard to die instantly from weed (unlike other drugs) and 2) the withdrawal isn't as severe as other drugs. That's it. That being said, the withdrawal sucks and it's not a breeze. And weed can kill you slowly, destroy your life, bring out the absolute worst in you, just like any drug can. I agree, nothing sane about it. It's poison marketed as candy so we'll continue to kill ourselves.
Thank God the Father for Jesus Christ, his Son! He's the way, the truth, and the life.
It happened to me, I even saw a portal opening from lights, the scariest thing of it all is that I attempted suicide during it not even realizing I am about to kill myself. I was not myself, it felt like someone else took control over me. I was lucky I survived.
The weed nowadays is way too strong for me, and I understand. I think I had a similar experience from smoking very potent weed. Have you ever done psychedelics?
Weird, I have taken some serious bad trips before and the last thing I wanted to happen was die… I was terrified that I would die actually. the fact that you tried killing your self is a bit strange because usually people are scared of dying when they have a bad trip
Devils lettuce was opening up the gates for spirits to take over. You have to be very mentally strong with substances. I don't think weed is inherently bad but with high thc products it can cause psychological damage to people who are unprepared

I also seen a portal through a lightbulb and actually tried to go through it. The light actually went out and then I collapsed off my bed (I was standing on my bed towards the light). I also thought my family were trying to have me killed for whatever reason. This weed nowadays is just unnatural!! I regret smoking it so much (To anyone out there, QUIT QUIT QUIT IT! Psychosis is at your doorstep) I smoked from 12 to 18 years old landed me in SOLITARY CONFINEMENT of the Dallas County Jail. It’s not worth it.
It is a actual thing, there is actual studies done you can find with little effort, where the catch is, is that the % of people that get weed psychosis mirrors the % of people who experience psychosis in regular life, for some people, normal reality is already slippery. These people shouldn't do any drugs. The average person who is mentally sound will never experience this.
I’ve done a lot of drugs and the only drug that ever made me psychotic using it was weed.
@@Reachzach some people are just prone to these types of reactions. Terrible lottery to win. Disassociatave drugs are rough on people, especially weed where you can still have the will to fight the disassociation, this mental friction can cause a metaphysical fight that manifest as anxiety, paranoia, bouts of short term psychosis. Etc. Stronger drugs don't give you a chance to fight the disassociation, hense the adverse effect of cannabis.
@@Reachzach if you ever had a bad trip on mushrooms or LSD, it's for the same reasons. Your trying to hold on to being you, that friction manifest in very unpleasant ways.

It took me almost 2 years to recover fully from it. But my best friend never did..
I believe that it’s very real. My 20 year old son is a different person from smoking weed, I’m not sure that he’s in a psychosis state( in its technical term) but it has definitely changed his whole person. 😢 I wish he could realize this!
I’m exact same boat, am 20 and smoking heavily past 2 years now, can’t seem to kick it and when I don’t have it’s like the whole body feels different (withdrawal), suggest him to therapy see if he has a trauma or something that he’s trying to escape from.

this happened to my boyfriend recently, and he still hasn't moved away, even though it's been about 5 days. I'm very scared, he's changed, it seems to me that he's getting better, but sometimes he has paranoia attacks and I get so scared that it's schizophrenia and he'll have to live on pills all his life. he's been smoking weed since he was 15, now he's 18. we smoked weed every day for six months, and I sometimes noticed signs of paranoia during that period, but it didn't seem serious to me. but recently we tried to move to New York, and it turned out very unsuccessfully. before moving, we reduced our marijuana consumption and smoked 1-2 times a week. and when we were in New York, it so happened that we smoked for 2 or 3 days in a row. and then the fuck started. he became terribly paranoid, he said that everyone was looking at him, that the police were going to take him away, that some drugs had been put in his cigarette. as a result, he got to the emergency hospital, but stayed there for only a day, the doctor let him go and said that everything would be fine if he didn't smoke anymore. but it's been 4 days since we got back to his parents, and he's still acting weird. he has such a lost look and sometimes has bouts of paranoia, and he still denies that he had cannabis psychosis in New York. he says that he feels not in reality and I can see in his eyes that this is so. I really hope that he will be able to return to normal, but God, I'm so scared. we don't have money or insurance to go to the doctor, we are emigrants and don't even know English well enough. I just try to believe in the best, but every time I read the stories of people who, even after a year, have barely recovered from psychosis or are now suffering from schizophrenia, I get so scared....
Donttt smoke nyc weed thc here is way tooo high
If he’s not hearing voices in his head then he might just have strong derealization. I had something similar last year and it took me a while to accept how delusional and crazy my thoughts were but once I did and am now able to look back at it my advice would be to try and ground him back to reality maybe like a super meaningful gift or something personal can help ground him. Just know the state of mind is temporary have him smoke cbd with no thc that will get rid of the psycho activity that thc can cause.

@@VigyanAalok-lz9fe yes im good
I don’t smoke weed or mess with any other drugs,
Really in what way?
Buddy I think you just ate an edible when you were 15. Edibles are powerful, but I don’t think you had weed psychosis
Thats the devil. Stay away from this crap it's pure evil.
@@VigyanAalok-lz9fe your schizo effective, Weed psycosis is extremely rare.
Happened to me yesterday, was scared to death but managed to get thru it some how, I called my gf and from there she just did her best to calm me down and it felt as if I was slowly coming back to a stable level of reality where it wasn’t bending.
Did the effects of the psycosis last after intoxication? Beacuse simply having psycotic symptoms dosent mean you have real psycosis it means you had an intense experience. A high dose of Psychedelics can cause a state of mind that has similar symptoms to psycosis but goes away after the drug is removed from your system
you could be schizo effective, weed psycosis is rare.
I find it entertaining and fun when I experience it lol
Sorry but this doesn’t really happen for a couple hours.
Now I don’t know if I’m depressed or weed psychosis cos mine happened after a high THC knocked me off. I was like running insane since then I have tried to treat myself went for iv flushing still yet I lost pleasure in everything I did before. Hardly feel happy but irritated. It’s really insane. The way I see things aren’t same anymore it’s like I lost a little touch with emotions and the world but I’m normal. I know that I’m not okay. It’s scary man!
Glad there’s videos like this. My psychosis story: I’ve never been the most stable kid in the world but I didn’t know that and after seeing a bunch of positive things about weed online and all my friends doing it, I decided to try it. I then got addicted for years and kept going into psychosis for months on end and going right back into it as soon as I left the psych ward. It got so bad I made an attempt on my life to “go to my father” which I thought was god. I am now 2 years sober and I’ve never felt better in my entire life. Im so glad I gave that shit up and I’m really living my best life. If you got this far, thank you and have a great day. 🫶
Its the high THC combined with low CBD level weed which is also grew with awful fertilisers, pgrs and other nasties to boost as much quantity and thickness in buds.
The weed today is like heroin. It needs a serious check over and safety overhaul
it’s really not like herion😂 just don’t smoke sprayed bud
I think this happened to me but I’m hoping someone can confirm:
I’m not a heavy weed smoker by any means, but one time I smoked before heading into a shopping mall with a friend. I only took a few hits, but they were quite thick. Only a few minutes later when I started to feel it in my body, I starting panicking inside the mall.
I felt like everyone was watching me and knew I was high
I felt like something or someone was in my body controlling me physically
Even though I felt like everyone was watching me, I then began to feel like I wasn’t actually present and instead hallucinating once my friend told me that no one was even paying attention to me
I felt like I saw duplicates of the same people walking around
I felt as if I was going to die/be punished for being high
This only lasted for about an hour or two, then after that I seemed to calm down. But this whole time I thought it was a bad high, and this only happened once. But what if it was psychosis?
Lol nice
I mean I’ve definitely had these moments before, I’m not sure if it’s psychosis. To me they were just panic attacks, the one and only time I did a stronger drug than cannabis I heard voices talking to me, talking about me, and laughing at me. I tried plugging me ear but it didn’t affect the voice at all, I got my brother to take me home and I slept. When I woke up at 2 am I looked around, then at my hand, when I realized I was myself again it was a moment of pure bliss. The night before was the most frightened I’ve ever been in my life
I read this and can stop laughing lol don't mistake weed for that homegrown rubbish they be growing in rooms with light bulbs but you probley got a high on it and it turned you paranoid cause your body wanted use to it it sent u in a daze that's why u saw doubles I remember when I first smoke weed I use to get the giggles
your schizo effective, weed psycosis is rare.
@@kikiranks1ify you don't know anything about weed do you? nomatter where it's grown it's a percentage thing, even jamaican sess you can smoke enough of to get high. There's no difference between homegrown or processed weed.
I’m going through it rn and I realize when I stop it goes away
Definitely stop smoking weed for a while man, my friend is now in a psych ward with psychosis and schizophrenia due to weed. and he won’t ever be the same again.
It’s really sad.
You should really stop smoking weed. It only gets worse from there.
schizo effective 100%
Need to be weary of the signs your body is giving you, time to lay off the green crack for a while
@@toshh7360I understand this. I’ve been in the psych ward 3 times and have had very long tiring battles with psychosis and addiction. It will get better for your friend but it takes a long time. It’s been 5 years since my last episode and I’m still recovering. The best thing you can do for your friend is be supportive, cause that post psychosis depression hits hard.
I got 6 years no weed, I used to smoke everyday all day. Then I became an alcoholic I learned, there’s such things called alcoholic schizophrenia, when I got sober , I had psychosis for weeks.but it eventually went away, no medications no doctor no counseling just having faith it would cure, and exercise! Staying fit, life is way better no weed no drugs no alcohol, all you need is eat healthy, exercise, sleep enough, and be a good neighbor to everyone
I’m not trying to be “That Guy” but when I switched over to smoking organic weed, meaning that there’s nothing inside the cartridge but pure resin, stopping was a lot easier.
I did not have the same side effects or the cold chills I got before I switched.
I would see myself from a third person perspective, and it actually went on for months
people's emotions need appropriate understanding and care.
I did weed very rarely before, but last 2 experiences have been psychosis and I will never do that again. I just cant, this is terrible experience.
I was a heavy user for 7 years but the last few months of smoking screwed me up. One of the last times I smoked I was sitting on the back porch half a joint in when a god damn spaceship flew above my field. My dog saw it as well, made her hair stand up. Whether that thing was real or not it felt evil and put the fear of God into me and the few times I smoked after that, years apart, instantly put me back into the paranoid terror sensation that I felt that night.
Maybe it was not a spaceship, but something else and you were just too high?
Weed shows you the spiritual side of things. So i wouldnt doubt that you saw a real spaceship coupled with the ability to sense the spirituality behind it. Lots of sober people would freak out from a ufo so id imagine being high could intensify the panic and existential crisis behind it.
Id imagine its like not thinking rats are scary until you actually encounter one. But yea, you most likely werent hallucinating but the weed did make you percieve the experience from a deeper perspective compared to you just being sober.
You say that YOUR DOG SAW IT TOO !!?? - Had she been smoking as well ???!!
😂😂😂
Well, the spaceship was real, the us government had come forth and announced that they have been hiding them and the existence of aliens for decades to keep the public from panic. But, as someone else stated...the weed opens up a part of the brain and allows us to see the real world for what it really is and what really around us at all times...and to a normal person...you just wouldn't be able to handle the truth.
Ty for clarifying this. Used to date a guy who would accuse of me trying to do evil things to him out of nowhere and the next day, would say that he was an alien. Always thought maybe he has schizophrenia. The relationship ended (because he didn't feel 'right' about me) but my heart goes out to him - I hope he's healing. ❤
Had a pal who went and murdered someone and tried to kill someone else. Had his first smoke in years and just flipped almost there and then. Judge didn't take psychosis in to account as he made an conscious decision to smoke it, he went to jail for a long time. Sad tale all round, he was a good bloke.
Happened to my friend, except he isolated himself for months before-hand so its hard to determine what truly was the cause of his psychosis, i believe it was a combination of isolation, depression and constant substance use.
I saw this happen to an older guy, 60 yrs. old. He had smoked since a kid and and the weed today is so much higher today than in the 70s and early 80s. He had some mental issues anyway. Well, he cracked, lost all his money to pay lawyers because he had been arrested numerous times for threatening people. He basically flipped. I warned him years ago about his excessive weed smoking and asked him to clear his mind, stop, walk at the beach. Well, now hopefully he quit. I lost contact over 3 years ago because he was dangerous...so sad. He also got a legal prescription for this crap by a doctor who did not know his mental situation. So, he was legally poisoning his mind
Had something like this happen to me, but it was due to undiagnosed bipolar depression.
I've been diagnosed with 7 different Disorders . I've been on 9 medications for about 6 years.
Dexter's From all of them.
I have been taking marijuana for a number of years and that is helped with my disorders.
What he’s describing is one of 2 outcomes of cannabis use:
1) the activation of a psychiatric disorder the individual was already previously predisposed to. This is more likely to occur if the individual is still in adolescence as the prodromal phase of such disorders (ie schizophrenia) are typically present during adolescence.
2) withdrawals that mimic a psychiatric disorder but are actually just a dopamine deficit/withdrawals that the individual may not be accustom to, which may result in bizarre behaviour that mirrors psychosis or even manic/depressive symptoms. All depends on their age, how much and how long they’ve been using it. Usually new/inexperienced users.
Wow. My brother is presenting no 2. He’s 38 and has done coke before but currently only weed. He’s also being extremely aggressive how he never was. 6 months of very heavy use..pls tell me there’s hope for him…
Also one more point to make is that there's no way to determine if the Marijuana smoked wasn't laced with something more potent like a psychedelic substance such as pcp for example which some can be undetectable by standard blood and urine tests.
It's a trigger for schizoprhenia, It normally pops up late 20s. but can be triggered early with weed. All the altered perception can send you down your "intended" route later in life, just a little early thanks to the drug.
This is also for many (myself included) a bit of a predisposition that just, "comes out," easier when on high doses of THC.
this exact thing happened to me, i was smoking cheap (probably laced) wax and any time id smoke id hear voices and they wouldn't go away. The voices would become more prominent whether i smoked wax or flower and didnt go away for 5 months. I only started to feel better after quitting cold turkey and got on prozac. I was extremely paranoid due to a sexual assault i suffered from at the beginning of college and thought there were cameras in my dorm room. I was too scared to eat in the university dining hall because i thought everyone knew what happened to me.
I was an occasional smoker and one day back in winter of 2019, I decided to get high from some flowers I bought from a guy I played ball with.
It was a horrible night. I felt like the voice in my head was repeating the same things. I was eating cinnamon buns and quickly became repulsed by them. I went and laid down and started shaking until I fell asleep. I thought about calling my mom to take me to the hospital but I decided to just ride it out.
This stayed with me for a looong time. I can say that my life remained functioning but I was silently suffering. About a year ago, I started taking Prozac. I will say, Prozac saved my life (along with supportive gf and family).
This is an allergic reaction, it’s happened to me the 2 times I’ve smoked thc, & a confirmed diagnosis from the medical professionals. It’s not always same shoe firsts all
I have heard inaudible whispers and seen dark shadows when I was a heavy user for a short period. I no longer drink or smoke ever, and there are no lasting side effects.
Yeah I struggled with the psychosis every time I smoked a decent amount. It was difficult to stay sane until I watched videos on withdrawal symptoms etc. I have never needed help and I avoided being in public but the last time was definitely more intense than I remembered from when I was younger. I tried to keep my most insane thoughts to myself as I rode it out to sobriety. Definitely a hell of a ride.
My son died by suicide. He was a heavy user of marijuana and for many years. He became paranoid and probably had weed psychosis.
He was anxious beyond belief as he tried weening off weed, but just during the weeks before jabs his anxiety was off the rails. Who knew it was weed cause everyone was a little crazy. He started a group but just couldn’t stick with it.
Using weed multiple times a day for years is not a healthy option. I miss him every day. He was 40, had a new partner and many future plans, but the weed habit and lockdowns and new work due to lockdowns just were too much.
Thanks PM of Canada for legalizing weed without testing for safety and overuse.
It’s not the weed that’s bad. It’s just the people smoking it… I had to quit too because it gave me anxiety problems and I felt like I was on the brink of psychosis but end of the day you can’t blame the weed for that. It is just not for everyone
Nah, it's not the weed. It's just the biological construct and mental state predisposition of your son.
You're just being ignorant.
Weed psychosis is a real thing and happens to many heavy users after years of smoking regularly! Like after maybe 2-5 years or even after 7-8 years later or some even more(depends in person to person).
So get off weed when you know it’s making you paranoid and make sure to not smoke it at all. If possible just quit weed even if it doesn’t make you anxious or paranoid and spread awareness.
This change is must!
Happened to me. Made quitting it automatic as I had wanted to quit smoking for some time beforehand.
I smoked weed on occasion and was not a regular smoker. I stopped because I didn't like the way it made me feel anymore. It started to give me a headache the next day and just made me sleep and binge eat. I'm done.
Weird I’m able to handle mushrooms,acid any other drug fine but if I smoke weed I feel insane and out of my mind.
Same
This happened to me back when I was 18 or so. I’m almost 50 now. I was a mess for months. I thought I was losing my mind. My whole life went to shit because I smoked some pot. I at one point just wanted to die. I was afraid of everything. I kept feeling like nothing around me was real. I thought I’d never be normal again. Thank God I finally got past it.
I would love to talk to this doctor about an experience that happened to me. I almost need it to put my mind at ease. I think he would also find my story academically interesting. VERY LONG STORY SHORT: I experienced a severe trauma when I was 18 that was vaguely associated with weed in my mind. It was a very bad car crash that happened when I had inactive THC in my blood. Didn’t touch weed for years. But after 5 years I wanted to ease my anxiety and depression during a bad time in my life, so I tried weed again at a friend’s house. I took one small hit, and then I immediately had a psychotic break that lasted I think about a week.
You cannot tell these kids that weed is not harmful, but it is!!
Why is no one talking about managing mental health with lifestyle changes. Makes it unnecessarily bleak. Jesus.
it's because people with mental health issues don't like to admit it lmao
Yeah, I heard that, drastic changes in lifestyle could result in schizophrenia
I need more info. Does this weed psychosis only entail what you mentioned in the video? Can it take form in anger? Or depression? Lack of motivation or urge to harm someone. Maybe being easily angered? Or is that just possibly depression
everything you mentioned falls under it
@@Timelyxx thank you so much for your reply. I've since seen my family doctor and got referred for help
@@wavyrc8985did you get better?? My brother jas been the same 6 months of heavy use. He needs to detox. Will it get better..?
Its a demonic attack
Happened to me. Id hear whispers that i couldn't make out.. And id get visions of hell
I was already diagnosed with malaise & fatigue, allergy unspecified before this happened.
Now I don’t know if I’m depressed or weed psychosis cos mine happened after a high THC knocked me off. I was like running insane since then I have tried to treat myself went for iv flushing still yet I lost pleasure in everything I did before. Hardly feel happy but irritated. It’s really insane. The way I see things aren’t same anymore it’s like I lost a little touch with emotions and the world but I’m normal. I know that I’m not okay. It’s scary man! I need help!
From what I’ve heard is that since it is so common in younger individuals that in a lot of cases it can actually just be an early sign of schizophrenia which in itself is amplified by drugs and alcohol
What if the patient opts to wait naturally, without the medication? Do you allow them to have that option??
It’s his business to put as many ppl on medication.
I have met a lot of smokers through the years and have had one person tell me that his sister could not use cannabis because she was allergic to it. I have not seen everyone and will take you at your word. I’ve just never even heard of this until recently. I suppose because of the laws changing and more people owning thei rights.
I oppose any law on me about my body unless I present a direct danger to others.
This is happening to my brother right now and it’s super frustrating.
Im sorry is he better now? My brother too its been 2 days he didnt know how to put shoes on or a shirt
@@catenriquez5601 somewhat. He’s really depressed.
@@catenriquez5601 almost two months later. He’s better but still not 100%
Did they get better? My brother going thru the same b soo aggressive & violent too. Is there hope?
Back then the weed was low THC, now with all the cross breeding we have bigger and better weed but at what cost
It happens only when I am high but next day I'm allright
Just an opinion:
Why would medication be prescribed to someone for something they actually don’t have is the real question. When really all that’s needed is to cease the intake of all forms marijuana, increase of nutritionally dense food & water, & to help push the (now tainted) THC out of the body by just simply sweating. This can be done via exercise or just by sitting in a steam room. But shower as soon as possible. Don’t want these toxins to be absorbed back into the bloodstream. Last but not least, one of the most important…adequate sleep. Sleep deprivation can definitely exacerbate this whole ordeal when it comes to the psycho-emotional aspect of things . So yea- No need for the antipsychotic(s)- shit fucks up your brain chemistry. The weed has done a number on it as it is. Don’t need the devils candy adding to it. Just saying.
Lol😂😂😂😂, I thank God everytime I can that I got anti-psychotics. For me, I stopped smoking but the symptoms didn't stop at all,. When it's really serious, just waiting it out will not stop the psychosis but yeah the medicines can be really heavy on your mental health, I stopped against my doctor's advice and made sure not to ever smoke weed cos that will trigger it
It happened to me at like 17 or 18 and I had a demon chasing me up my staircase
I was sober from weed for 10+ years, decided to go all in on weed - smoked over $1000 worth of weed in 1 month (only flower - no vapes/dabs). QUIT. Was waking un in sweat daily, thought it was kind of weird. No appetite - lost 30lb. 2 weeks later - BAM - complete mental breakdown/psychosis that lasted 2 months. I am now fully recovered., I'm one zero meds. The antipsychotic meds they did give me ended up causing more schizo side effects than they were solving. I was worried i was fucked for life. Got off all the meds - and I'm completely fine. Stay safe and dont do drugs.
Zero mental health issues before this - and I was mid 30s when I went into psychosis from weed.
Ignore the 37 beers a night the person drinks.
I can imagine, all weed you can find is toxic, been grown very badly therefore you ingest carcinogens and toxins. I would like to see a study done with natural weed that contains no bad pathogens and is grown in a natural way, and also non gmo strains should be considered, as nowadays who knows what strains have been genetically modified
Stick with the government inspected, government approved, government legal stuff that’s pure with no additives, and the potency strengths are all measured and printed on the outside of the package like what it sold in Canada.
Weed is a mild psychedelic. It shows you things. And amplifies it
This is an atmospheric thing. I noticed it living with my ex friend/ roommate. Very negative energy and atmosphere can draw bad energy to you and you just go down a bad spiral. I live alone now and smoke way less and am perfectly fine. Also had anxiety when I smoked living with my parents at the time. You think people are out to get you. But that’s all personal experience. You go out to a restaurant and no body is looking at you or talking about you. It’s all created in your head. Weak minds can’t handle it. Sorry to say but it’s the truth. Try taking some magic mushrooms or lcd in a bad atmosphere, it’s the same thing
Glad I didn’t get this, I just got CHS instead. Now I can’t smoke that stuff without vomiting myself into an ER.
😮 I have neva! I smoke everyday & yea maybe its the type of potency. I smoke 24% and yea u get a strong high...maybe they are mixin with other stuff😢
It's angel dust homes - Hector
I started seeing hallucinations when I was getting sober from heavy alcohol use. I would hear screaming like someone was dying. I couldn’t sleep because of it. I was sweating really bad too.
I love when doctors talk about this stuff
I had psychosis after doing edibles for about a month. I took 100mg total. Then a week after I split into psychosis. Spent 2 months hospitalized. I’m 37 not a young teen. History of depression/anxiety but now they are saying I’m bipolar. I tested negative for cannabis so they don’t know about it. I’m not bipolar…
Sounds like something a person with bi polar disorder would say😂

im 34 since the age of 5 i have been suffering from “stomach migraines”. at the age of 25/26 i started getting bad anxiety/panic attacks. now the doctors saying there not stomach migraines its weed psychosis. even though my symptoms have all been exactly the same.
since i was 5 i get these stomach migraines every 3-5 months. up until i was 25/26. since i started with marijuana. its still the same 3-5 months
Everytime I’ve felt too high I just go to sleep
Weed today is way too strong with THC.
Yes you’re correct that’s exactly the problem! Stick with the government inspected, government approved, government legal stuff that’s pure with no additives, and the (very low) potency strengths are all measured and printed on the outside of the package like what is legally sold in Canada.
3-4 weeks clean...never better. Took it slow but also fast. Went from (multi) daily to once a week for 2-3 weeks and then stopped entirely. Im 21 trying to move on and to get my Class A CDL
Iv smoked cannibis since i was 11, i never experienced any of this behaviour. It comes down to good genetics and mental state
I really don’t understand people who freely subjects themselves to this. This is idiocy. In its purest form
Hi, where can I learn more about this?
First time ever!!! Happened to me and thc gummy’s!!!!! Had full blown panic attacks ER for 8-9 hrs tell the paranoia went away I was back to myself!!

I smoked a large amount of hhc, an got it. I barely smoke less than 1 year with low daily use. But that day i took 2 blinkers of stiiizy hhc an got out side in my town talking loud about loving meth, crack, herion & dmt + ketamine. Never did any of that. Was say “im mentally ill i need help” well my wishes came true a good cop with training in mental health knew what was wrong an he interviewed me about my life i gave him what he asked, as best to my brain could handle. He offered an ambulance an they took me to the hospital they tested my blood and yup high levels of thc. They put me on too much medication they over medicated me so fun with that. The meds were to me enhancing the symptoms of psychosis i felt as if the cna’s were actors cuz of there body language and tones of voice, it was like i could do anything without consequences of action, i did know to not commit crimes cuz of documentary shows i watch. Im 20 years old this is recent back in October. I got sent to a state hospital where they dialed in my meds and yeah it helped i also still feel like they helped me more than local hospital.
It happened to me. It goes away when you stop caring and start enjoying. Smoke responsible. Cheers
I’ve managed dispensaries for the last decade, I’ve seen this behavior a lot in my line of work. Fortunately it’s pretty rare, maybe like 1 out of a thousand users will experience a significant episode. Usually it’s not that bad, they just get weird for a little while and it wears off when they’re sober. But there have been cases where people genuinely frighten me, like openly talking about self harm a sharing paranoid delusions.
I think people are still ignorant about this stuff. Me and my husband used to smoke heavy but he was also abusing cold medicine behind my back and when he started to have manic attacks alot of the time he was admitted or arrested idiots said it was because of the high thc in his system.
it happens to me very frequently and i still smoke lol. i’m 20 and i’ve used weed and other drugs since age 11 and around age 14-15 i started hearing voices and having extreme paranoia. it’s very uncomfortable.
I’m 18 and I’m pretty sure I’m developing it have not gone psyco yet but after work I go hit the sauna and almost every time I walk into the house to change my brain goes blank and I can’t think straight. I have been hearing voices in my head my whole life though. I have a productive voice and a procrastination voice. Can someone tell me if I’m going psyco. Also out of no where I will get this insane adrenaline dopamine hit and it feels so amazing I don’t know how to explain it, I feel like I’m ruling the world
This is scary. Im a weed smoker and i have a heavy tolerance but im not willing that this might happen. I need to quit again
