Would NOT recommend as OCD is an anxiety disorder. People will tell you it mellows you out but in the long term it has the opposite effect. 1 person I knew with severe anxiety smoked weed constantly to calm themselves and ended up becoming progressively more anxious (over a period of a couple years) until they took their own life. Another friend of mine eventually stopped being able to leave the house because the weed had increased their anxiety so much. It might work for some but I personally don’t want to risk it because I never know what effect it might have.

^do you think it depends on the person? or is it actually proven that it makes everyone paranoid?

I always thought it made mine worse and triggered an intense fear of being near marijuana which I had for years, but recently I tried again and it turns out just indica makes it worse and I do fine with really small amounts of sativa but I mean small like only one hit does the trick. Start with a very tiny hit, wait 20 mins, see how you do, and build up. Do baby steps until you learn. But tbh as far as ocd symptoms mine is always better with alcohol. However I don’t drink often so as to not fuel any bad habits

But when you google it everyone says if you have anxiety to do indica and idk man it’s the opposite for me maybe ocd is different?

Does anyone else get fixated on one “topic” with their ocd?? like for me trains and guns are mine. like i’m scared of trains and im scared to be around guns because that’s what triggers my ocd and makes me convince me that that is the way to go. i literally worry myself into thinking im going to sh*t myself when i don’t even have a gun but my ocd convinces me. idk if im explaining it good, but its a real struggle. just need some tips & advice

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
