please read!!! a few months ago I smoked wax and got AN AWFUL reaction. I had a complete panic attack, depersonalization, and derealization. it was THE SCARIEST THING EVER. I haven’t really felt the same ever since... I’m SO SCARED THAT IT MESSED ME UP FOREVER. I get panic attacks, depersonalization and derealization, feel depressed, have terrible existential thoughts, always have anxiety, and feel depressed. I can’t even sleep at night. I’m so scared I’m forever messed up. Could wax do that to you???? Please help! Has anyone else experienced this????

I avoid THC at all costs. CBD is a godsend though.

weed doesn’t mess up your brain like that, especially from one use, don’t worry, it’s the ocd talking!

weed wax? no that can’t happen to you from my knowledge but maybe it sparked some sort of anxiety in you!

THC would be out of your system by now.

I used to smoke weed all the time, daily, then suddenly it started making me super paranoid and anxious and now I can’t smoke anymore. I do use cbd occasionally though

i reply to ur posts all the time cause same thing happened to me and 2 of my friends. everything’s gonna get better with time promise that. i just think it’s so weird that some people who smoke a pen are so unfortunate to have this reaction me included. i still wonder what it was to this day. cause most themes have a name i never knew that this was. i had severe anxiety, derealization and depersonalization. i wasn’t diagnosed with depression but im gonna be honest really felt like i had developed some type of depression. i was afraid to live and nothing felt real. i literally thought i was in a coma. i had panic attacks . in school. cause that’s the last place i was high was in school cause i had smoked so much the night before around the A.M. time it lasted till the morning into school so i was tripping out. i don’t know man i still don’t know wtf happened. i had like the weirdest symptoms like ringing in my ears and dizziness all the time. it was the hardest time in my life . like i literally plan to write a college essay on it that’s how shitty it was lmaoo. but i think that it was just a bad high. and since we have OCD, maybe we just made it a bigger issue than it is?? i don’t know. cause idk if my friends who suffered this have ocd. i don’t think they do. but idk. anyway, mine went away because i developed a new ocd theme, homosexual ocd. other than that , to help myself i started just meditating, yoga really helped. it’s really scary now i know first hand. but i survived and i never thought i would. feel free to find me on here whenever for advice , u got this girly

also, sometimes i still deal with small things. like i can’t eat mushrooms bc i’m afraid it’ll be psychedelic shrooms and i’ll get high. so it’s not all gone yet, ocd is a bitch haha. but i’ve been thru it and ik its ocd so i try to be lighthearted about it but i know it’s scary. but ur stronger than it.

@ramona oh my gosh I never thought anyone would understand as well as you did it’s crazy we went through the same exact experience and I’m so thankful that I have someone to talk to you about it& it really does suck and I swear I have PTSD from it...your super inspiring tho❤️❤️thnx girly

@ramona how long did that last after you got high in high school? When did u start to feel better?

It happend to me also, you'll be fine. For some reason marijuana just ain't good for anyone with OCD, but CBD is amazing. I smoke my little hemp flower and I am able to do life for the first time in years.

@rlr yeah weed wax... just scared it messed up my brain forever or something:/

agh okay thanks everyone ?❤️

This exact thing happened to me 8 years ago - it took awhile for me to feel better, it caused the worst panic attack of my life. I felt dizzy nonstop for a year - maybe more. It does get better - just hang in there.

How are you now. I’m dealing with extreme ocd including existential thoughts and a feeling of derealization. I stopped Prozac about two weeks ago cold turkey after my doc said it was ok and I’ve been having this ever since.
