I will share my story here. As you know I had a THC abuse problem. My husband described it as I didn’t just want to feel nice and relaxed and giggly-I wanted to be high out of my mind. Ie dissociated from my life. It was not good. I was using it to try to medicate my depression and anxiety as well as my nightmares.
I ended up on an extremely high dose of edibles, around 2000 mg up to twice a day. I was extremely, massively psychotic due to it. I thought I was the female creator goddess and was undergoing the apocalypse. I would quit and I would stop experiencing the psychosis…but I thought it meant I was losing my spiritual senses, so I would go back on and the psychosis would start again.
Magic mushrooms had the same effect on me. I actually only minimally hallucinated on them but they threw me hard into the psychosis.
I wouldn’t recommend either of these substances for people prone to psychosis. Not at all.
Had my first psychotic experience on hash/THC, regret doing it. Actually experienceS, a good amount of them, but was drawn towards it cause at the same time, it was fascinating, until the trip turns bad ofc.
It definitely disturbs parts of the brain you’d rather not do that to
I agree that hash and weed are mind altering drugs. ![]()
I had been consuming high levels of cannabis starting from 15 years old onwards. I’ve quit it for 10 years now. I’m sure my condition was triggered by my cannabis use.

The first 2 years of high school, I would smoke pot and feel perfectly fine and have a great time. The last 2 years of high school, I would smoke and get panic attacks and paranoia and delusions. THC isn’t for me.
Yeah, on the rare times that I smoked another joint the same thing would happen. Extreme Paranoia. I would end up flushing all the drugs in the toilet. ![]()
I can’t do thc. Figured that out a while ago. I think it’s funny that there are people, even some mentally ill I know, that think weed is the cure for everything. The couple chances I gave it recently had me in my living room, blinds closed, riding it out. It’s a horrible experience. It seems so harmless to everyone else.
I honestly dont know. I dont smoke pot or drink or do any drugs whatsoever besides nicotine and caffeine. I’m an angel

I smoked pot in my youth but had very little in the years prior to developing schizophrenia, though. Im sure there is probably a link though. My guess is that it is probably just a trigger like a million other triggers out there. You likely have to have the predisposition for developing it for pot to set you off. I know multiple people that have smoked it their entire lives and havent developed sz.
I quit it too after smoking it heavily for years.
