Some people do experience some relief with it. I don’t. I find it makes my intrusive thoughts more graphic and gives me a sort of “I’m not fully aware right now so what if I’m too stoned and I accidentally tell someone my thoughts” feeling. Some people though think it really helps. I think it depends on what strain you use and also how your body normally reacts to THC. Some people have different effects. Maybe try it out and see.

No, I had an extreme attack from it when I had my medcard that actually caused me so much damage mentally I will never ever touch it again.

It helps me a lot! But not too much, otherwise it worsens my intrusive thoughts and the intensity of anxiety. Just a little bit does the trick to slow down my thoughts and help me function better!

Oh gosh, as a naturally anxious person and a person with OCD, here’s my marijuana experience. I had phases I went through every time I was high (I don’t think medical marijuana makes you high??) 1. I would feel really heavy and would just lay down and felt like I couldn’t move (which is a normal thing, it’s very relaxing actually) 2. I would laugh constantly for no reason just loving life 3. The paronoia would start and I would genuinly think I was dying, I literally felt like I was in heaven talking to Jesus (...was it laced oorrr...¿) 4. I’d go to sleep

Medical marijuana does make you high. You may be thinking of CBD which isn’t psychoactive, as opposed to THC. thinking you’re in heaven talking to Jesus 😂😂😂, maybe you just got a lot more stoned than you expected. It does sound like you were tripping on something though. But I’ve also had really bad highs. I used to smoke daily and eat edibles and absolutely loved it. Never got a really “high” feeling once my tolerance went up, just got super relaxed and giggly. However, I had my first really bad intrusive thought in the form of an image while I was stoned one night and it ruined me. I had no idea what had just happened. And it was months before I could smoke again. After that, I would try it occasionally but always made my OCD thoughts so severe I couldn’t handle them. Now it’s been 3 years since I’ve been high and I could never even imagine doing it again.

@Ald21 RIGHT I was probably thinking of CBD thank you! Yeah I probably smoked too much 😂 I’m really sensitive to stuff. I don’t do it anymore though, I pretty much just tried it a few times like 6 years ago. I want to again but I learned how it can effect your cognitive abilities long term and I wasn’t a fan 😅 so I’ll be chillin with my Zoloft and Wellbutrin lol Oh woah! So if I read that correctly, somehow getting high triggered your OCD?

@Where’sMySerotonin🦋 Yes it did. It didn’t trigger it completely for the first time. I had experienced intrusive thoughts/images before but was able to just brush them off as “ew I don’t like that thought” and then move on. However, I was watching a particularly disturbing episode of Criminal Minds while high one night. And something that happened in the show caused an image to pop up in my head. Being high, I absolutely freaked out and could not get the thought out of my head. And then I felt like I just couldn’t sober up and I wanted nothing more than to not be high because it was making the thought so much scarier. I then continued to constantly have those thoughts almost every waking moment of every day, until I started ERP. I’m so glad the Zoloft and Wellbutrin work for you! That’s awesome that you found something.

@Ald21 Omg I’m so sorry that happened to you, that sounds SO scary. I can’t imagine 😳 I’m glad ERP made it better and I hope you continue to recover!

@Where’sMySerotonin🦋 It’s okay! I guess most people have something that initially triggered their OCD. I’m sorry you’re dealing with it too. I wish you the best ❤️

New diagnosis
I just got diagnosed with ocd and she suggested I think about taking lexapro for it. Has anybody tried that and does it help at all?

Help me need insight
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
