Explain in more detail what you mean by "depersonalization"...feeling like outside looking in or more like derealization, things don't seem real? Are you certain its not a severe panic/anxiety attack? These type feeling are regularly asscociated with panic/anxiety as well as from suffering a severe trauma. In addition these feelings are also common with clinical depression, bipolar disorder and sleep deprivation. I have a severe sleep disorder as well as bipolar and I feel a little like that when I stay up a few nights. Check with a Doc but in the meantime try a dif strain or switch to/from Sativa/Indica. Have you been smoking long? Or have you went from Mexican mower deck weed to some banger? If you cant find answers then you may just have to quit burn in'.

some times when i get high i dont talk to chicks even when theyre hot and it pisses me off.

like that?

some people just have different personalities and act different when high. you obviously dont like to be upbeat or outgoing while high, instead relaxing and chill maybe. its fine just be yourself and dont let it get in your head.

relax and just enjoy the high and it will all be natural. :)

Sativas=going out

Indicas=staying in

Depersonalization is nothing more that undoing all of the BS programming societ put into you. Look at it this way, youre headed in the right direction. Maybe it might open your horizons and you will see more than hot chicks, maybe smart hot chicks...

It's that type of feeling like nothing is real, like you looking at the world from a bubble, it does start off as anxiety but i can control that felling well. its just the depersonalisation that stays with the high.. i would say i have been smoking for 4 years every day till i had my first anxiety attack, went to the doc and he gave me tablets called pur-bloka (dont get them in usa) they got rid of my attacks and i slowly learned how to control them. but the depersonlisation is another story i cant control it and that what kills me, doesn't matter what strain i try either sativa/indica they both after a bit of smoking start depersonlisation even if i have a bit to drink i can feel the effects!! i mean i really think there's something wrong with me:( anyways i have stopped for the mean time and that means everything drinking smoking cig's and weed and hope that help's i really don't want to stop weed i love it that much:)

If you have been smoking cigs and drinking, props for quiting that shit. Were you trying to kill urself cause you picked the right shit if soo. Ok...try this...leave EVERY vice out of the mix for at least another week and try to get your body clean. Primarily nicotein and caffein. Drink plenty of pure water throughout every day and try to purge yourself of all stresses the best you can as Zihowie and maryjane said. When you have reached your ready point, you will know. Once you have, emurse yourself in a very very relaxed situation either with friends(not the "amped" fuckers) or alone. When things are feeling very natural and fluid, not planned or scripted, bust out a heavy Sativa and take only one toke. This last part is vital because your tolerance will have dropped and you sure don't want to prompt a "tripout". If this goes well then you have your answers.....stress and anxiety. With having 28yrs of dealing with severe anxiety and bipolar disorder, I am leaning towards the stress and anxiety. But also be prepared for an answer you won't at all like. We all know that for many cannabis can bridge a gap in our brain chemistry but could also make a short-cut path for effects not helpful to some. We are all pulling for ya and hope ya get it worked out....I can't imagine what it would feel like if the miracle effects she gives me turned into ill-effects.

Well... despersonalization is one usual effect of weed... many people gets it when they smoke... so i think the best thing you can do is to get used to it... or wait until you develop some tolerance, which will diminish all the weeds effects, including the despersonalization.

Anyway... why do you dislike it so much?

Mild dissociation is with weed is very comon, that's one thing many people like about it, especialy for depression. But for some people, it can feel terrible.

It never bothered me until I had my first panic attack while high. Then some time later I had a panic attack for the first time sober and was dissociated for 2 days straight. Felt emotionless, with a bit of fear, everything had a foreign look and seemed fake, felt like I was in another dimension but was also here, and like It was an endless high without the positive feelings.

Since then I have had anxiety about anything drug related, can't even drink without getting a panic attack. Anything mind altering scares me. dp is the one of few things i hate about being high now and I havent smoked for 7 months. :( I really miss being high, and logically I should fear it, but I do. My brain subconsciously associates weed with anxiety now. I really love weed to. :(

Ill overcome it eventually. My anxiety is almost gone but I'm still to scared to get high. If you overcome the anxiety fully, then the dp shouldnt bother you, it's probably because of the anxiety, or maybe the dp causes your anxiety.
