Last night my friend and I did edibles for the first time. We accidentally did too much and we both became incredibly anxious. For me it made my ocd bad I started constantly checking to see if I was aroused and I got paranoid that I was and then kept checking and it really just triggered my ocd. I was wondering if anyone else has gone through similar things? I got really bad sexual and violent intrusive thoughts.
Same experience for me. I accidentally took and edible without knowing and I’d never had one before. Ended up freaking tf out. During my high I experienced a disturbing intrusive thought about my sister. This was the first intrusive thought I had been aware of. As a result I was disassociating and depressed for nearly a year. Every time I smoked weed after that, it was a repeat of that one time. And from that night on all of my mental health struggles came out of the woodwork, one of them being what I highly think is ocd along with intrusive thoughts. So every time I got high it was like a different intrusive thought was the theme. I’ve experienced sexual intrusive thoughts about friends or relatives and ones like convincing myself I’m gonna say a racial slur out loud or I’d keep repeating it in my head. You’re not alone, i think it can be really triggering because when you’re high sometimes you get that voice that seems like a higher being and it can seem like it’s coming from you. I’d suggest staying away from weed in general. I want to note that I had smoked weed prior to that experience and I would be totally fine but after it everything changed. I hope this helps, know you’re not alone ❤️
@Itsybitsyspider Thank you it does help 🩵 I will be staying far away from weed
I’d say at this point there’s a bit of misinformation about weed calming people down because usually, it’ll make people with mental illnesses more anxious and paranoid. So, I don’t recommend doing any sort of drugs unless prescribed by your doctor.
I smoked for 7 years never had problems until last November. I had to stop smoking because I got those thoughts it was so scary. It made me never look back. I proud to say I don’t smoke anymore nor drink. Drinking doesn’t help my intrusive thoughts or even myself.
I cannot smoke weed or partake in edibles because it makes my ocd much worse. And not only that but edibles take a long time to go through and it’s normally pure hell for me to sit there for hours and hours of ocd and anxiety until I fall asleep. If you want to partake in that I would recommend smoking it. Of course if it’s legal in your area smoking you can kinda take in smaller amounts and in my experience the high doesn’t last nearly as long. But in the past edibles have not been a fun experience for me and my ocd and anxiety just made it way worse and lasted hours and hours and only way to feel better was to sleep it off.
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.
