Delta 8/ THC

Have any of you ever had a bad trip off of delta 8 gummies or THC in general? If so how long did it take to recover from the DP/DR afterwards? For context I’ve only smoked a couple times in life which was all over 7 years ago. My OCD has been pretty debilitating lately so my significant other said let’s go to the local CBD store. They recommend some delta 8 gummies which I took in 3 1/4 bites spread hours apart. Then suddenly I was hit with the most HORRIFIC paranoid, panic attack high I could have ever imagined that kept me up all night shaking and pacing… For hours it was as if my OCD themes were being actively played out vividly in front of me and I was incredible paranoid. Now the next morning I’m doing better however still feeling the aftermath of DP/DR and worried it will last a long time… Curious as to if anyone else has experience with this!

I cant emphasize enough the importance of staying sober when dealing with mental health. I know its not easy and depending on age and social circle it can make it daunting. I'd be a hypocrite if I passed judgement for drinking/smoking as ive done it for many many years until the risk outweighed the reward. The panic and anxiety for 2-3 days after had become too much so I quit, everything. Im sober 3 years now and its the best feeling not having to ruminate on what may or may not have happened while drinking/smoking. I hope this helps. God bless

yeah gummies have definitely fucked me up BAD. I had such a bad trip off gummies it sparked a new obsession where I was constantly terrified I was gonna be drugged again. the dissociative feeling for me lasted for a while after and honestly if im reminded if it it comes back even though its been a year since the last time I got high and i had to quit completely when my ocd got bad and latched onto drugs as an obsession. starting erp therapy and prozac have definitely saved me though recovery is very possible. I was in a very dark place and now most of the time I am relatively at peace. sending love my friend.

My first DR/DP was from smoking way too much weed - horrifying experience, haven’t touched it in almost 10 years now. You will be good; sleep, water, etc. Sorry you experienced that

@Endlessly Pondering I definitely recall when I was younger I took a CBD/delta edible and it caused the same as this. I also believe that was my first time experiencing DP/DR or a panic attack in general. I’m almost scared to say that’s where my OCD first flared up afterwards. It’s truly a shame you try to take something marketed as “natural” to get some relief from OCD/anxiety then in turn end up way worse off…
