There is an old saying by the philosopher Socrates...

"Our greatest blessings come to us by way of madness, provided the madness is given us by divine gift."

Do not automatically think that psychosis is a BAD thing really. In order to spiritually grow, you will have to go through altered states of conciousness, even if it may seem bad. Sometimes when I am high, I may get paranoid. I will think of things like the government is watching me and stuff, which they probably are. I don't know.

Just don't judge mental illnesses as a bad thing. In truth, reality is a big dream. But what is truth, as Jesus supposedly asked Pilate.

People who hear voices and see things that aren't there can be classified into two groups. The first group are people who cannot cope with these voices and are called mentally ill. The second group are people who can cope with the voices and are called psychic.

For those of you which dont know what Cannabis psychosis is, its a feeling of losing contact with relaity. For starters when I first started smokin I did a flippin S*** LOAD! and then took a break for sometime. During the break i had some nasty weed withdrawls.And the birth of psychosis. I personally thought I was done with weed and all its sources. So certain in fact that I sold my bowl and weed kid "Dr.Doom". As time progressed a friend of mine got hold of somre Rating: 5

this is so crazy... ive got a nutz-o story about my friend that i think had this now that i am reading up on it. He started smokin weed like 3 years prior to this event and then one day it just hit him. Like he was trippin hard core.. he was over at a friends house getting high, and just as he was going home, his friends mom showed him to the door and he asked her " Can you see that?," "theyre everywhere" and his friends mom asked "who?" you know like what the hell is this kid talkin about. his illusions and state of being totally went out of wack, telling nurses in the hospital he had a knife, and all this crazy shit.. he was then sent to a bigger hosipital in a bigger city for tests and shit, and when he came back he was the same old dude.. But when he tripped like that its like he was a totally different person.. now a year later hes still hittin the doobs and hes fine...ive read somewhere smoking weed causes schizophrenia in some people.. so i dunno just thought id share on the topic Peace!

[Mr.N]

Shit dude... Yea I think i know what caused it so hardcore and shit.. I smoked SO MUCH and then suddenly STOPPED! Cold turkey man for a couple months and I am now hitten it again and its really not that bad.. I can kinda feel it sometimes but I do what people here suggest, I just take a breather and chill out... But anyways, sorry to hear that about your friend. To be honest "schizophrenia" to me means someone which is talking to themseleves and THEY are controlling that, but they believe its something else... I dont know thats my opinion.:dance: Sometimes I think I have this but I "take a breather" and say "Hey I am doing this, I need to chill the F**** out" lol more or less.


Thanks for your post ladies and gents :thumbsup:

man sorry to hear that shit happenin to you but i can tell you now it wont last long, especially since its just weed. man i had amphetamines psychosis once back in summer before senior year of hs after a 4 day long speedrun and weeks of heavy abuse, little sleep and barely any food. for weeks i had been talking to myself and i was convinced that somebody (didnt even know who) was out to get me. finally it culminated at the end of this speed run, and i basically went insane, smashed shit all over my room, created numerous marks in the wall from punching, and then after dowsing myself in alcohol, xanax and valium finally fell asleep, woke up on the floor 19 hours later, still exhausted.

[Mr.N]

Woooo dude thats pretty crazy..^ Can I ask what "amphetamines psychosis" is? I have been feeling it lately as of yet, I am also REALLY worried about becoming a skitz... But I also heard someone saying how weed was antipsychotic.. I dont know maybe I am thinkin about this too much and I am the cause of this. (I know I said this before lol)

o is that what that is? i think i've given myself depersonalization too....what fun

[Mr.N]

whats that exactly?

[maphiagrrl]

In psychology (and also psychiatry), depersonalization (or derealization) is the experience of feelings of loss of a sense of reality. A sufferer feels that he or she has changed and the world has become less real -- it is vague, dreamlike, or lacking in significance. The DSM-IV categorizes depersonalization disorder as a form of dissociative disorder, though depersonalization proper is more often characteristic of the traumatic origin of other conditions.

Sufferers of depersonalization feel divorced from both the world and from their own identity and physicality. Often times the person who has experienced depersonalization claims that life "feels like a movie, things seem unreal, or hazy." [citation needed] Also a recognition of self breaks down (hence the name). When a person suffers from the disorder (or the symptoms associated with it) he or she finds that when looking in the mirror, his or her face is not familiar, though logically he or she is completely aware of his or her identity.

The feeling is said to be like being a ghost. No matter how hard the person tries, he/she cannot feel like they are genuinely interacting with the world and can't seem to perceive themselves as being normal. They feel like they are trapped between the real world and death. While one is struggling so hard to feel everything as normal again, there is a part of oneself which begs to just give up and stop the struggling. Simply put, it is an alteration in the perception or experience of oneself, so that the self is felt to be unreal; the person feels detached from the reality or their own body or mental processes
