Does it help or make your ocd worse?
Does it help or make your ocd worse?
Didn’t help with intrusive thoughts. Honestly, made me feel more withdrawn and depressed.
It can make it better because it can help manage your mood, it'll eventually get to the point where it controls your mood and you'll be dependent on it. Your body also may build up an intolerance and may lead to all sorts of issues. Another thing is, a lot of it come from unreliable sources and can be laced with other drugs so it's all a gamble. Bottom line, I wouldn't if I were you. Just like compulsions, it offers false sanctuary but ultimately will make things worse
I have tried using THC for the past 5 years. For me, if I’m in a decent headspace, it makes me a lot more comfortable in my own skin. Temporarily. I have addictive tendencies, so I end up overdoing it. After a month or so of heavy use, I hit a wall of extreme anxiety. I stop cold turkey, and go through a nightmare of OCD (and withdrawals) for 4-6 weeks. Eventually, I feel a little better, try it again and repeat the cycle. I wish it worked for me, but it’s just not in the cards. Others may have different results, but it ends up fueling my OCD.
I’ve been smoking for a year and have gotten bad anxiety…I’m scared to stop last time I did I had TERRIBLE ANXIETY
So much worse
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
Wondering if any of you have tried cannabis for your ocd and if it helped or made it worse.
I just got diagnosed with ocd and she suggested I think about taking lexapro for it. Has anybody tried that and does it help at all?
When I smoke weed when I think of non ocd things or themes, my head starts to make sense of things I feel more open and I think clearer. So that’s where my big concern is!!! Because when I’m high and think of ocd things like being a killer, or someone who’s a sociopath or someone that can be a pedo it feels real like my mind is clearer that I am these things Any one who has experienced weed with ocd help me I need insight on this im very confused and it’s causing me to ruminate all day
