I Got all this from weed 90 days ago
What do you Think ive Never herd anything talking to me or Seen something that is NOT there in from of my face

And im only 14 yo

If you feel you may have a mental illness you might want to talk to your doctor about the things that make you feel that way. We are not doctors here. I hope things go good for you

The first thing you should do is stop smoking weed. It can cause psychosis. 25% of all people with psychotic disorders reported their first symptoms after smoking pot.

The next thing you should do is talk to a doctor. There are many reasons you could be experiencing these symptoms. It could be the drugs, it could be schizophrenia, it could be a physical problem like a brain tumor. We can’t say which one it is, so you should absolutely see a doctor.

Weed causes permanent brain damage in a developing brain, at 14 your brain is still developing

If you got it while smoking weed it was the weed. Note that if you have genes for psychosis (i.e. It runs in your family) smoking weed can activate those genes. Otherwise I’d say stop smoking weed, then see how you are after 2-3 weeks.

Also if you’re 14 you shouldn’t be smoking weed to begin with because it damages brain development if you’re smoking a lot :roll_eyes:

I have only smoked Like 4 times in my life. And there is NOT 1 in my family with mental problems

I have ben talking to docs and they say i probably dont have schizofrenia. But im still very afraid

Wait till the voices come, then you’ll know for sure

Can it suddenly come

Ive done alot of online test to se if i May have it they all say No and they Alonso say im NOT about to but i just dont know

What if they dont Come ive Been whaiting for 90 days and NOT 1 voice

NOT 1 ik my familiy with it

I dont Think from smoking 4 joints

If your doctor says not to worry, then don’t worry. It was probably just a bad reaction to weed.

If it was bad weed yes you could get a bad reaction from 4 joints. In fact it could even be good weed but just your own body chemistry/brain didn’t react well.

I don’t think you would develop a sustained psychotic disorder from that but temporary paranoia/hallucinations sure.

Please know possible bad side effects from a drug before taking it.

One can effect you if your brain chemistry is right for it, It could very much be a warning sign and hopefully you get the message

I dont hallucinate at all No seeing things or hering Voice just so afraid im about to get it because i have so bad dpdr and anxiety

That’s more normal bc weed doesn’t normally create hallucinations that would be a severely bad reaction. You literally just got paranoia from smoking weed. It’s a completely normal bad reaction. If you haven’t smoked weed in months or a year and you’re still getting these issues then it’s something to be concerned about.

@SzAdmin, can we get a pinned post for “do you think I have schizophrenia?” because it gets tiring typing the same response several times per week.

To the OP:

I’m not a doctor so I can’t tell you. SZ is only diagnosed after you have displayed a certain number of symptoms over a cetain amount of time. Your doctors also need to rule out other physical conditions that can cause like SZ like symptoms (e.g. environmental factors, poisoning, cancerous tumours). Finally, you really don’t want to be diagnosed by a bunch of Internet strangers who may not always have your best interests at heart.

GO SEE A DOCTOR.

And good luck.
