Omg I'm so sorry. I know exactly what that's like. I hope when he gets out he is better but I pray that he stopped smoking all together otherwise he's going to fall into a psychosis I know from experience and I did not stop because I didn't at that time believe that this was related in any way.... Now I'm much older and I threw the grace of God and channels like this or the hubarman labs podcast I know the science behind it. Fyi I'm in my 40s so not a kid and my episodes happened and my mid '20s but I have been smoking since I was 16... So He can absolutely reverse it. Best of luck mama keep strong. I know that whatever he tells you... it's not him. Sometimes with something like this we say and do things that are absolutely not us in any way shape or form but could damage family relationships beyond repair
We hope your son is getting better. Here is a list of all our family recovery resources. everybrainmatters.org/cannabis-harms-support-recovery-families/
I’ve had Cannabis psychosis at least 5 times and somehow I am still alive. This last time was the final wake up call for me. I cashed out all of my savings and investments and spent it all on stupid shit! I am now diagnosed bipolar disorder and am recovering from Cannabis psychosis and addiction for the rest of my life.
Have you recovered from the bipolar symptoms? Or is it neurodegenerative with use that is irreversible? Can some of the symptoms be temporary jus for the withdrawal or is it plain biology degeneration? 😞 sorry for asking but recently a loved one (16) has been admitted to a hospital due to a “bad trip” . Trying to informed us to evaluate and go about the situation better. I think its just withdraws because it would be the first time we find out and this person is off the weed after heavy everyday use, yet the Drs were quick to say bipolar. So, since youve been there already it means a lot any insight you can give us. Please and thank you for your time to answer.
@@misstaveras8028 I am recovering from my bipolar symptoms and I am about 2 months clean from everything. I know about the bad trip! For me, it was full blown psychosis that manifested into bipolar mania. I could not stop spending all of my money because I was delusional. I ended up in a mental hospital twice last year from acute psychosis. I lost all control and all inhibitions. I completely departed from this reality and ended up behaving so erratic and dangerous that I ended up getting arrested twice! Even after the first arrest I didn’t even care because of my psychosis. I am horrified of the things I did when I was manic. It took several months after I quit weed and nitrous oxide and adderall before I started to come back to reality. It is recoverable but only abstinence and time. I am sure if I got back on any drugs I would eventually be in psychosis again. They have to stay away from the drugs, once a psychotic break happens, it will happen again if they take the drugs again. Watch them closely and tell them not to spend their money! It will be difficult if they are in psychosis, but you still need to try. I was delusional and manic and I was battling so many demons and voices that I thought were real. Show them this post. Just stop doing the drugs, especially weed on top of whatever else. It will ruin your life!
@@misstaveras8028 I think bipolar is just a name the doctors/psychiatrists give, because the psychosis keeps reccuring. It sounds a little friendlier then Schizophrenic. It's mostly because they want to push you on not only lifelong anti-psychotic medication, but also something extra for example Lithium (or valproate). I've had multiple episodes of (cannabis-induced) psychosis too and that's what they told me last time as well, that I was bipolar and they put me on Depakine (which is used to treat patiens who are epileptic) along with the anti-psychotic Respiridone. I've had horrible side-effects from both medicines and all I had in my opinion was a depression because of those side-effects. I guess the anti-psychotic medicine was quite effective at getting me out of my psychotic state, but now I was suffering from Respiridone side-effects which is almost worse then having a psychosis. So we (me and my mom) were very persistent to each time ask for a reduction of Respiridone, but her response was no and instead add Depakine to the mix. She told us this would make me feel better/get me out of my depression as well, but it only made it worse. When you're taking Depakine you also have to do a lot of bloodtests, which also isn't funny. Thankfully my mom got very angry, so in the end after almost year I slowly weaned off Respiridone. The Depakine I just stopped taking as well, because I have no idea why it was given to me in the first place. She was kind of furious of my decision and she said ok, we don't approve with your decision and the next time they force me by law to take it, which to me is worse then a death sentence. I don't have a good word for most psychiatrists, but what I can say it's really better to be sober. Btw this was a reply to misstaveras8028, I can't see her reply anymore, it's not a reply to Daniel's.
Its living one day at a time. I had a marijuana induced psychotic break and am also diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Its redescovering life now. Taking time, using the medication, and learning to appretiate the small things. Stay safe brother and God bless you.
@@misstaveras8028 The bipolar symptoms have become way less exaggerated since I quit smoking pot and doing other drugs. My bipolar symptoms were amplified when I was in psychosis, spending all of my money, taking really risky behaviors, doing all kinds of other drugs that I normally wouldn't do, going to strip clubs, just doing everything I could to get arrested or die. It was like I had no self control or concept of consequences for my actions. For me, once the psychosis is triggered, it has to run it's course, unfortunately, this meant more drug abuse and ultimately ending in getting arrested. Even then, it still took a long time before I realized it was the drug and that I was in psychosis and made an actual effort to quit. It's not something that can be told to someone experiencing it to just stop, they cannot understand you because their reality is completely broken. The only way is abstention from all drugs and let time heal the brain. There are antipsychotic meds that may work as well but I chose the natural way because I am forever scared of drugs now. I am still recovering every day, but for the most part, I think I am stabilizing when it comes to bipolar symptoms. The brain is elastic and it can heal, you just have to stay away from psychoactive substances. Good luck and God Bless!
Thank you so much for sharing, my son went through the same, I am happy to have found this group, but only after the huge impact. He is now healthy and happy.
My son had to take medication but before he would take it, he refused, he stole my car one day and ran out of gas. A man stopped to help him, and brought him fuel. That man was a pastor and took him under his wing. He has a son same age and introduced him to my son, got my son involved in the church, his son monitored him daily to ensure he wasn’t using drugs. Was with him 12 hours a day. The Dad started my son working on jobs like cleaning carpets, cars etc as he had a side business, and trained him, eventually my son was willing to take his medication, and found jobs rewarding and church and friends rewarding. But it was a miracle. Pray is all I can say. I did for years
Wow. That is a miracle. Hoping to get one for my son. This is so hard. Prayers to all the distraught, worried, anxious parents out there. I understand. We're in the middle of this now.
@@loriboo651 my child is going through this now. How will the docs know if it is CIP or if it is an underlying mental disorder? So hard to understand and figure out. So glad your son is doing well. Praying that this never happens again. How long did he have to take meds?
We have many families coming forward saying experiencing the same. We are so sorry this has happened to your family too. Please consider contacting us and sharing more.
My 16-year-old son is currently in a psych ward for the second time in less than 6 months. He is saying the most vile and outright evil things to his father and I. It's extremely hard to hear the things coming out of his mouth. I'm fasting and praying for God to give me strength and wisdom because I honestly feel like I'm in a fog. They are recommending he goes to a dual-diagnosis residential home. I just don't know which program will be the best for him. The last one was a joke. I feel for all the parents out there. ❤
@ we are so sorry to hear this. Please reach out to us anytime. Info@everybrainmatters.org here’s a link to our family recovery resources everybrainmatters.org/cannabis-harms-support-recovery-families/
I'm almost positive this is what my son is going through. He is in mental hospital right now. This is 2nd visit. No one ever mentioned weed induced psychosis. Praying him and everyone with addiction is freed from this stronghold. recovery.
26:42. I cant believe I am listening to someone explaining exactly what I had experienced 2 yrs back in the ER! From the beginning of this video I have been revisiting the day of my son's first psychotic episode.. this Dad is explaining everything related to my son ever since he started vaping. My son also was a bright student who got into his dream college. Now at home as a drop out, no degree ,no job. Sigh..
I’ve had a similar experience..there is hope. It isn’t going to be an easy way out. It will take longer than you expect but I agree that the harsh diagnosis is sophistry. But regardless of diagnosis, it’s going to be a process of biblical proportion to get one’s life back. It may even take longer than 5 years and that’s ok. Your son can come out better and stronger than before these problems if you put your trust and faith in a true source of goodness and then make that a lifestyle! God Bless
I could write a book on this but I'll just say that the potential harms should be more commonly known. If you're doing this stuff and it makes you feel bad then stop doing it now. If you're having second thoughts about trying it or if you or your parents have any mental health conditions then listen to the warning and stop. I did a lot of lsd too so it's hard to tell what caused my issues but I too had adhd when I was younger and shouldn't have been doing this stuff. Don't create hell for yourself!
My brother is currently in this exact same situation. The symptoms and experience is exactly the same as you describe it. Thank you for sharing your story. I now am better informed.
Thank you for sharing, we have been going through this for the last 9months, my son is on anti psychotic meds which we still are trying to get right to help him.
My son had the same medication in the hospital and it was really bad, very ptsb for him and I could not be there with him because of COVID. He had to spend three days with really mentally unstable people
Yeah I got psychotic off weed - smoked a whole bowl in 2001 - just flower. Smoked too fast. Sister got schizophrenia after smoking tons of weed in '95. It isn't JUST the concentrated stuff - they've known for decades it can trigger psychosis and schizophrenia. Many will say, "Oh it must have been laced" and that's obviously not the case. It seems weed is far more liable for psychosis than psychedelics.
I think psychosis will happen regardless of strength if the use is frequent enough and one is prone to getting psychosis. Pro cannabis folks keep saying the ones getting psychotic from weed are prone to it. The problem is there is no way to tell if you are prone to cannabis psychosis or not. You can be perfectly healthy and one day your brain is fried.
You can tell, you'll get anxious and it won't agree with you, also if you have any chance of schizophrenia or dementia you should avoid it completely the risks are known only reason we make a big deal about this is because it's newly regulated and people love jumping on the hype train but people don't realize it's the same as alcohol it's not just pot anymore you have to really know what your getting look at your percentages and as stated before if you or your family members have a chance or a history of mental illness it's a terrible fucking idea also dabs and concentrates are only dangerous if you don't consume in moderation it's just like anything else if you abuse it enough somethings gonna happen 🤷🏻♂️
There is Harvard Psychiatrist claiming to be able to actually heal patients with psychosis type illnesses by having them eat a Ketogenic diet. He did some brain scans on those patients and in many cases the damage was reversed just doing that. I think it is worth a shot. Wish you could interview him or another psychiatrist about cannabis and possible ways to heal from damage from it.
People repeatedly tell me that you cannot develop psychosis from cannabis use. I have first hand, up close experience with someone suffering extreme psychosis, schizoaffective disorder after smoking cannabis excessively. She has suffered for five long years while the mental health community says there’s nothing they can do for her. She must pursue psychiatric treatment on her own. This is not possible when you are suffering with chronic psychosis.
I had a cannabis induced episode 5 years ago, was completely delusional and was like in hell. The doctors never realised or treated me for it. I had another episode 3 years later with stress. The last year and a half I've been trying medications but nothing is making me better. I hope they'll find something.
@@stacknsat I no longer use no, when I did I had a terrible feeling. Never tried fasting, very hard for me, I feel really unwell when I don't eat. When i'm hungry, I'm hungry now. But I have a really bad digestive system, my tummy swells up with everything.
I’m so glad I stumbled upon this page. My family went thru this 2 years ago from my son dabbing. Such a nightmare, I think I have PTSD from experiencing this. Thank you to everyone on this page for helping and sharing your trauma.
@eliserichardson1990 even more reason why you should look into fasting. It resets your gut biome and reduces inflammation, amongst other things. It's challenging but just try intermittent fasting first. Like only eat between 12-6 or whatever you choose. Worth looking into
, I know it’s very relaxed and accepted here. My son has permanent Psychosis from smoking Weed. It’s so sad, and these kids really need to understand Brain needs to be fully developed. Weed has changed dramatically since 2000’s
Thank you for this program its very educational. I believe my 19 year old is definitely struggling with this. Its so difficult to help him because he denied the help. If anyone has idea please share. Thanks
Thank you thank you thank you!! My grandson has been in a mental institution for 3 months now because he used THC pens for almost 2 years .. he has been diagnosed with Schizophrenia triggered by THC use… they have changed his medication 3 times.. he was an extremely intelligent out going athlete… he is now a shell..and he still does not recognize it was the THC..
Thanks for sharing your journey. I want to know which medicines and treatment helped your son. Im facing the exact situation with my son and we need help with the right treatment. ADHD with cannabis induced psychosis.
We can’t recommend meditations. Everyone responds to medication differently, so working with a medical professional is essential. We do know the psychosis improves when marijuana products are ceased. Here is a link to our family recovery resources. everybrainmatters.org/cannabis-harms-support-recovery-families/
Experience that psychotic with my son psychosis and I swear he almost he ended up in juvenile hall we took him I took him to all the doctors I took him to the college hospital I took him to everywhere and nobody can figure out what it was it took the police for him to have a check when he was and to this day you still haven't got any help he doesn't smoke that he needs to stop because his dad had late onset schizophrenia I feel for the man I know how it feels it's really really really really really so drastic and now you know I still have that question he's doing good so far but I told him to keep up that now doesn't listen
Thanks for sharing your experience , please tell me what medicines helped with recovery. My son has the same situation, ADHD with weed induced psychosis. Please help !
So sad, your Son was experiencing "Delusion of grandeur" In this form of delusion, the person believes they are much greater or more influential than they really are. THC can trigger this type of delusion. But how can one help an adult who feels this is their reality and refuses help?
It’s hard to put a percentage, the high levels of concentration of THC up to 98% seems to not discriminate past mental family health history. High levels of THC on a young developing brain is wreaking havoc
How in the hell do u get that from what he said? U smokin weed? His point is after all that his kid was smoking potent as hell weed and he had no clue that this was even a thing, this stuff is real people are flipping out on weed I've seen it 1st hand more than once
@@ddwalker3744if you don't pace yourself you can green out pretty fucking easy and if you have used lsd it can amplify anxiety attacks which is what this sounds like
In thought, when your thoughts begin to take a judgemental turn in sin, use the prayer " I renounce and repudiate all evil demons and spirits that want to use my own voice to hate and curse others, In Jesus Mighty Name, I Pray, amen"
Actually though. I had a similar situation with my parents. Yeah I was smoking weed, but I realized that they didnt control my life and threw myself into freedom, worrying my parents to no end and demolishing my relationship with them in the process. I now have an advanced degree and a great relationship with my parents, a great job and havent done any drugs in a decade.
This is a two way street. I can tell the parents had no idea who he was. They just needed him to be successful. Parents do not understand the pressure they put on children to perform. Kids will use weed to escape your prison.
Parents involved not involved, dead beats or helicopter are crippled and cannot compete with legalized, perceived safe, medicinal, accepted, better to toke than drink, 95%THC content. Pretty shitty to turn this on the parents where parents have to compete, the media, marketing, government revenue driven politicians and great intellectual, parenting experts like you
Celebration and flowers to the father who took his time sweat and dedication to love his son with his all and learning his sons problems and being able to tell his story too.
Love be upon all who wishes❤
I love you and so does Jesus🙏🏻
Amen

@@stacknsat I no longer use no, when I did I had a terrible feeling. Never tried fasting, very hard for me, I feel really unwell when I don't eat. When i'm hungry, I'm hungry now. But I have a really bad digestive system, my tummy swells up with everything.
I’m so glad I stumbled upon this page. My family went thru this 2 years ago from my son dabbing. Such a nightmare, I think I have PTSD from experiencing this.
Thank you to everyone on this page for helping and sharing your trauma.
@eliserichardson1990 even more reason why you should look into fasting. It resets your gut biome and reduces inflammation, amongst other things. It's challenging but just try intermittent fasting first. Like only eat between 12-6 or whatever you choose. Worth looking into
My son is going through the same thing it’s been over a year 😢
What a father!
, I know it’s very relaxed and accepted here. My son has permanent Psychosis from smoking Weed. It’s so sad, and these kids really need to understand Brain needs to be fully developed. Weed has changed dramatically since 2000’s
I’m so sorry to hear this. I’m praying for you.
Is he any better now?
Amazing thank you!!!
Thank you for this program its very educational. I believe my 19 year old is definitely struggling with this. Its so difficult to help him because he denied the help. If anyone has idea please share. Thanks

Very important information. Thank you so much for posting!
Thank you thank you thank you!! My grandson has been in a mental institution for 3 months now because he used THC pens for almost 2 years .. he has been diagnosed with Schizophrenia triggered by THC use… they have changed his medication 3 times.. he was an extremely intelligent out going athlete… he is now a shell..and he still does not recognize it was the THC..
Thanks for sharing your journey. I want to know which medicines and treatment helped your son. Im facing the exact situation with my son and we need help with the right treatment. ADHD with cannabis induced psychosis.
We can’t recommend meditations. Everyone responds to medication differently, so working with a medical professional is essential. We do know the psychosis improves when marijuana products are ceased.

Experience that psychotic with my son psychosis and I swear he almost he ended up in juvenile hall we took him I took him to all the doctors I took him to the college hospital I took him to everywhere and nobody can figure out what it was it took the police for him to have a check when he was and to this day you still haven't got any help he doesn't smoke that he needs to stop because his dad had late onset schizophrenia I feel for the man I know how it feels it's really really really really really so drastic and now you know I still have that question he's doing good so far but I told him to keep up that now doesn't listen
Exactly!! Thank you!! Crazy legalization of this!
Such great questions and answers. I agree with this dad, Marijuana is the new Meth!!
My son is 24 and in psychosis right now for the third time from delta 8. He was diagnosed with bipolar 2 with delusions. Now I wonder
Thanks for sharing your experience , please tell me what medicines helped with recovery. My son has the same situation, ADHD with weed induced psychosis. Please help !
He must stop smoking or ingesting it thats the 1st step
So agree!! We need to do that. I have shay
Can barely hear over the shitty stock music y'all need audio balancing badddd
So sad, your Son was experiencing "Delusion of grandeur"
In this form of delusion, the person believes they are much greater or more influential than they really are. THC can trigger this type of delusion.
But how can one help an adult who feels this is their reality and refuses help?
It’s extremely difficult
Going through this now and my son refuses to take any medication. I have no idea what to do now.
Am sorry you are going through this, stay patient, caring, and know that there is hope
There are some antipsychotic medications that are long-term injections. See if that might be an option.
My son is going true this stage he was admitted to a mental facil 2 days ago any recommendation on doctor's in tbe state of florida?
What percentage of people has this problem with cannabis?
It’s hard to put a percentage, the high levels of concentration of THC up to 98% seems to not discriminate past mental family health history. High levels of THC on a young developing brain is wreaking havoc
It hast negative effects on 100% of people WHO smoke regularly
this mans intro makes it hard to believe that he does not lie to himself constantly in order to feel like none of this shit is his doing
How in the hell do u get that from what he said? U smokin weed? His point is after all that his kid was smoking potent as hell weed and he had no clue that this was even a thing, this stuff is real people are flipping out on weed I've seen it 1st hand more than once
Because he’s a caring involved father?
@@ddwalker3744if you don't pace yourself you can green out pretty fucking easy and if you have used lsd it can amplify anxiety attacks which is what this sounds like
In thought, when your thoughts begin to take a judgemental turn in sin, use the prayer " I renounce and repudiate all evil demons and spirits that want to use my own voice to hate and curse others, In Jesus Mighty Name, I Pray, amen"

Sounds like he hit the marijuana and finally realized his parents were not in control of his life. .
Actually though. I had a similar situation with my parents. Yeah I was smoking weed, but I realized that they didnt control my life and threw myself into freedom, worrying my parents to no end and demolishing my relationship with them in the process. I now have an advanced degree and a great relationship with my parents, a great job and havent done any drugs in a decade.
I call BS. There was already something wrong with this kids mind before..the weed just pushed him over the edge and his condition worsened.
@@Alex.Jensen you’re wrong.
Love it how the 420 basement dwellers burn outs are all of a sudden Psychiatric experts. Where did you get your medical degree from?
This is a two way street. I can tell the parents had no idea who he was. They just needed him to be successful. Parents do not understand the pressure they put on children to perform. Kids will use weed to escape your prison.
Parents involved not involved, dead beats or helicopter are crippled and cannot compete with legalized, perceived safe, medicinal, accepted, better to toke than drink, 95%THC content. Pretty shitty to turn this on the parents where parents have to compete, the media, marketing, government revenue driven politicians and great intellectual, parenting experts like you
This is an egomaniac not psychosis
I call b.s. on this psychosis diagnosis. There is no such thing.
There’s tons of evidence. Do some research. Educate yourself.
Knowledge is power.
