I hadn't really suffered with OCD for years. I still bad the odd thought or compulsions but it didn't steal whole days or weeks anymore. I suffered with an OCD surrounding insomnia last year, but I didn't really realise that the insomnia had actually become the result of OCD and excessive worry. As a result I went to a private cannabis clinic in the UK. I got prescribed a day and night Strain. Indica worked wonders for my sleep but the Sativa made me really paranoid, didn't like it. When I ran out of the Indica I started using the Sativa as it was all I had - that's what's caused my HOCD to kick off again bit time. I will never touch the stuff again. I was in such a good place a month ago and I feel like I'm rebuilding the pieces once again.

I literally wish I never tried it tbh! I feel so anxious and paranoid about health related stuff and Iām scared that itās not going to go away. I havenāt felt like this in a while. I hope that youāre doing okay and that youāre able to rebuild the pieces again

I don't like them cause they will generally raise heart rate temporarily. Anxiety typically fades as the high does but yea the lingering effects can suck. Once I've had an anxious moment I feel like I need to reset myself no matter the trigger. I stay with hybrids or indica but generally lower % is better tolerated until your tolerance is built up. Also I super recommend cbd/thc mixes. They are great for relaxing and staying functional and generally stay in the body.

Yeah it definitely gave me a bad experience and I donāt think I want to smoke again. Iāve come down from it but it has triggered my anxiety and now I have to deal with it

@šø That's always a choice and it's not right for everyone. I smoke daily I also keep my thc levels low and micro dose. I avoid high and go for relaxed. I hope your tools from ERP help you move past this. Good luck

Does anyone else have the strong urge to do some sort of drugs sometimes when there ocd gets really bad or over nothing in general, like Iāll just be sitting doing nothing and my brain goes āyou need to do cocaine right now or elseā and I get a urge and itās so like odd to me??? Iāve never done drugs in my life and never plan to because my father was a addict and Iāve seen what theyāve done to people so it scares me when I get these thoughts and then I get the urge to reach out to someone who can give me drugs and I play this whole scenario in my mind where I contact someone and I meet up with them and pay them for the drugs and then I take them and die and itās like??? Idk Iāve had weird intrusive thoughts involving drugs before but this is like different if that makes sense, I also canāt stop focusing on how my body feels when this happens like itāll feel like I was a previous addict and that Iām going through withdrawal and need something or else and itās just so weird to me. Anyone else go through this?

Everything feels so real. I think learning about non-offending pedophiles has really screwed with me. I feel like Iām not even doing compulsions anymore like I genuinely cannot remember if I do them or not and the groinal responses are messing with me. I keep having intrusive dreams and Iām in that half asleep state and I feel nothing after that or I feel weird like a good weird, I donāt know. Itās a really weird feeling when I get those thoughts but I donāt like them, I donāt think. All I know is, I keep seeking reassurance and I feel like I donāt have OCD because the way I feel, like the way I get worked up isnāt the same as others. Whenever I try to watch a show, like 9-1-1 or daily dose of sunshine, I feel like Iām watching something I shouldnāt be. Or if Iām just on my phone, I feel like something is going to happen. I feel red flags whenever Iām on my phone, like somehow cp will appear. I know that OCD is the doubting disorder but my god, this is just crazy. I feel like Iām going crazy. Everything is just nonstop, itās so constant and Iām genuinely scared that Iāll do something when I get out of my room. I donāt know anymore, this whole OCD thing is just making me lose my mind.

So something that kinda pops up with my anxiety is about a year or so ago i ate an edible gummy after not doing anything for a while and i tripped out really badā¦ for example i thought i was gonna overdose and die, and that i was already dead.. that is the most fear i have felt in my entire life, and even though its over and has been over i have this constant fear in my mind āwhat if your still high and this is all a dreamā or āyour gonna wake up and it will still be that nightā i never wanna feel that way again. i canāt even go around the smell of weed with out freaking out. i canāt take pills, or vitamin gummies because āwhat if it will make me highā when it comes to sleeping i wanna try this dr teals sleep blend but i struggle so much with it because of my mind saying āit will make you feel highā.. even when i feel tired i feel scared cause it reminds me of feeling high.. its just i feel so stuck with the same reaccrujng thought āthis could be the time you wake up and it was all just a dreamā āyou could wake up from coma and this was all imaginedā i donāt know what else to do, its my own mind no one can help me and that sucks i donāt know how to win the battle when itās such a deep rooted fear. i feel like im pushing my family away. i feel so numb.
