I used speed when I was young and look at me now. I have a Grade II Diastolic Disfunction of my heart. I quit all illicit drug use when I was 21 and had a psychotic break that didn’t go away. I also smoked weed back then, and my pdoc told me that pot was contraindicated in people with Sz and can trigger genetic code that causes Sz to express itself.
I really don’t know if what my pdoc said is true or not. I ended up in the psych hospital back when I was 21.

Yes amphetamines raise dopamine too much and AP do the opposite.

Weed triggered my first psychosis. I am 100% sure of that.

Not surprising. I did a whackload of speed when I was younger. I had run up a pile of credit cards and my solution to paying them off was to not sleep and work three jobs at the same time. Spoiler: It was a disaster.

Philip K Dick died in his early fifties from amphetamine use. It gave him drug induced psychosis. He wrote about forty books.

Sorry to hear he died. I’m glad there other people who have experienced drug induced psychosis. Thanks
I see I’m seeing things again right now. I just went back and read some posts again and they don’t say what I thought they said the first time. I keep seeing the word “blood” I been thinking about a blood stained flag too.
see this is the problem. The night I first started slipping into real psychosis was when I was on mdma, which could have very easily been cut with speed.
