Smoking weed just makes me paranoid and it seems like my OCD becomes much worse. I feel pressured to smoke because people around me think it’s the greatest thing on the universe. I want to be able to smoke but it just messes with my head. Is this common?
same for me!
Yes, that’s common. If you are doing something that you know for a fact messes with your mental health in a negative way, then you should drop it. And if the people around you are pressuring you into it, then you should surround yourself with better people.
Weed made me 10000x worse. I rarely meet people with ocd who says it helps. It seems to make it worse in a lot Of People. For me I struggled with feeling out of control of my mind when I smoked and it made me Have panic attacks
I had to quit smoking and drinking due to my OCD. Been sober for almost 15 years. I would have the worst hangovers fueled by panic attacks and smoking would make me paranoid as well. Don’t feel pressured to smoke. It’s not worth it if it makes you feel terrible
@Zach34!! Thank you! Congratulations! I’m also almost at my 90 days sober as well :)
@LivingwithOCD0692 That’s awesome man! Keep going
Tried weed at the weekend and I reacted absolutely terribly, I was screaming and crying thinking everyone except my boyfriend was the police and would physically shout SHUT UP FUCK OFF whenever I had an OCD thought...has anyone else experienced this? Is there something wrong with me?
Has anyone ever had experience OCD triggered by weed..? 1.5 years ago i got really high with my boyfriend and i thought about a really traumatizing horror movie i used to obsess over in high school and got a major panic attack. Ever since then i have ocd themes around horror movies and gore, and my brain has been high alert ever since and been a living hell. I want my normal life back…i miss having a clear mind and not living in fear every day. Could the weed have permanently damaged my brain?? Or maybe it was just a trigger? I keep blaming myself for getting too high that day and its given me depression along with ocd. Can someone help/give advice on this?
Has anyone used any kind of cannabis for ocd. I tried it a couple of times and it just made my anxiety worse (I'm told it's the thc). Any info will be appreciated.
