I have disorganized schizophrenia- characterized by disorganized, random patterns of thoughts, Mild auditory/visual hallucinations (like a phone 'ringing'), difficulty concentrating, and some memory loss.

I began having symptoms before I began smoking pot... I was VERY depressed, couldn't sleep, didn't eat, I felt completely blank and emotionless (the absolute WORST feeling in the world) and I was having over 30 anxiety attacks per day.

I was introduced to it from a good friend, and although it doesn't have any effect on my hallucinations, it helps a lot with preventing any depression, I sleep MUCH better, and I don't have anxiety attacks anymore. A lot of the stress was triggered by chronic pain I have, and the pot helps to reduce the pain, so by default, I feel MUCH less stressed.

I can appreciate my life now, and getting stoned helps me appreciate and harness the disorganized thoughts I have.
