âCannaholicâ maybe
I just know weed makes my paranoia worse
Doesnât cannabis makes you peaceful and you refuse fighting ? I think that why itâs not liked in the army.
Some people have a gene that triggers paranoia when using cannabis.
This is separate to sz, but rather some people are âallergicâ to it, so to speak genetically.
I tried pot in college. I think it was my first time. I got substance induced psychosis or schizophrenia from it, but it probably would have happened later on in life anyways if I didnât smoke it.
I think itâs a combination of environmental and genetics. I was stressed out in college and I had a paranoid reaction to it. It really never went away. I had like 1-2 weeks where I felt better afterwards, but it eventually became permanent. Iâm disabled. It was my choice, and I cannot change the past, but sort of regret it. I tried salvia too, but I couldnât find any studies saying salvia causes schizophrenia. I think salvia is worse and I regret trying it.
For me, pot caused schizophrenia or triggered it. It doesnât happen to everyone and might be a rare event.
I havenât smoked pot in over 11 years. I donât even drink alcohol anymore. I donât like it.
I became hyper-aware of my reality and self. Like thinking about thinking and simulation theory, ego loss, and a bad trip, I guess. I wasnât a heavy user at all.
I became aware of my self and my thoughts and sentience. It was really strange and I panicked and became dissociated.
It was weird.
Up to 43% of people with schizophrenia develop a cannabis use disorder (CUD) (10â13) compared to 6.3% in the general population (14).
Among psychotic/ schizophrenia patients, 16% currently use cannabis, and 27% have a history of use in their lifetime [15].Jul 21, 2020
pot smoking and street acid in the seventies only made it ascerbate the time that I finally got szâŚif I hadnât done the drugs I would have been even more late onset than I didâŚand it was 35 before I got full blown psychosisâŚmy pdoc I loved that died told me about it not causing it but ascerbating the illness.
I only had about 10 hits of weed before I was diagnosed.
I spent 6 years on dope! It ruined me
But came out the other side
It was ages 12 to 18 and I completely over did it
I mean now itâs legalized in my state. If these studies are legit. They need to put a disclaimer on the packaging.
I was already traumatized coming into my teenage years, I am glad there was cannabis I could use to cope at our dysfunctional home at the time. I am misdiagnosed I have PTST I guess.
