Egg Head yeah, but what’s going on with weed that you have to be in the right mindset and setting? It wasn’t always like this. We’re talking about weed not shrooming or dropping a tab. I used to smoke heavily back in the day. Owned bongs, a steamroller and a nice collection of bowls. I think the paranoia is a result of age and the real world. Weed is for young teens and twenties when you don’t have a care in the world or any real responsibilities.
I have suffered from weed anxiety/paranoia and after thinking about it for a while and learning more about the mind/conscious. I think the paranoia what kicks in as soon as you smoke is the ego not wanting to let go. Once you let go and accept that your high I think everything is a lot more chill.
I always get paranoid but I think I’m ready. When I smoke a little I love the way it enables me to analyse my life and check myself. I think I just smoked to much before because I don’t smoke regularly and it was probably too much
The reason the first 20 mins or so of the hit is the worst for anxiety is cuz thats when the dopamine peaks and dopamine is what causes the spiraling of emotions.
This is interesting. Because for me, the anxiety and paranoia always come at the start of the high. Sometimes it's milde but sometimes it can be really rough. You just get sucked into this dark sphere of negative emotions and feelings. But this usually lasts for 5-20 minutes at max, then it just completely disappears and I can enjoy my high is a normal person. But for some strange reason, the first minutes of my high can be really dark. Short lasting, but intense.
Everyone ive ever known who says it isnt for them is because they were around idiots who peered them into taking too much. Sadly they are all heavy drinkers instead.
@@arnavsingh7525 bro how do you cope with that. I'm 18 rn started smking when I turned 13 and then on everyday till I was 17. Smoked massive amounts everyday that mixed with a head injury didnt bode well for my future smking weed. It used to just make everything funny and alot clearer than it was. Now when I try to smoke I have to convince myself everything is going to be ok constantly. What also fucked with me was that I made a pact with myself to never smoke again then was kinda forced into going to a party and had a good 20 inhales of a high concentration sativa blunt. I was fucked playing beer pong I'd lose the ball everytime it was my shot😂
I hear voices a lot when I’m high but I’m still not sure if it’s in my head or if it’s real because it’s always the same voices ( they sound like arguing male and female) I try to pinpoint the location of the voices and it’s always coming from the same spot ( I smoke at the AM hours in my balcony to not disturb anyone ) it comes from my neighbors house but when I check all the lights are off there’s no activity and everyone is asleep also when I get close to their house from my balcony there’s no sound or anything but as soon as I backdown and get back to the position I was I start hearing the arguing again, it’s always in the same hours and it’s always aggressive arguing but like they’re whispering. I can hear it clearly in some specific spots in my balcony ( that’s really odd ) and in other spots there’s no sound at all. Overall a weird experience still haven’t been able to confirm if it’s real or not. Also the voices speak in like a hush tone so it’s literally impossible to figure out what they are saying but how they are saying sounds like arguing of some kind by the tone.
When i was a teen i could smoke all day and be chill now im in my late 30s and when i smoke i start thinking about my bills my child support my car payment and anxiety takes over its not fun anymore.
one of my worst trips had tons of paranoia. It made me stop smoking for years until I tried it again this summer and finally learned how to handle it. it's all about controlling your breathing, and learning how to "ride the high", by keeping a relaxed mind. Just let it happen. Remind yourself that this is what you're going to do, and calm your brain through quick meditation beforehand. It's similar to what you should do before taking a psychadelic. I nearly fell into paranoia again at the start of this summer after vaping weed resin, something called a torch. It hit after 30 minutes, and first thing I felt was a warm sensation throughout my body. I wasn't sure what it is at first so my heartrate increased. Then I just let it happen. We stopped someplace for ice cream, and when I stepped inside I felt social anxiety. It told me that it's an issue I've been subconsciously dealing with and I never realized it. We go back in the car, and I just lean the seat back, and slouch. I stared at the top of the car for what felt like hours before focusing outside the window and watching things pass by. If I'd focus too much, it would make my heartrate increase, and things would zoom in exponentially before I looked away. Afterwards, I just told my brain to let the rest of the high happen,a nd it was smooth sailing from there. Just let the high take control. It'll teach you things you never knew about yourself.
See that’s where u fucked up at as soon as you think negative shit like that if fucks it up. People need to understand that thoughts shape reality. And also when high keep in mind that you are not your thoughts that’s help anxiety and paranoia but still weed ain’t for everybody.
With my paranoia, when I’m sober I always think about how and why it happens to me, and tbh I kinda believe I have worked myself out and the reasons as to why I get like this unlike all my friends. When I really think about it, it’s obvious. I didn’t have a hard childhood in terms of money and a good home, but I did lose my mother at the age of 7months old, and it really started to affect me as I got older. I always felt lost in life, I was never confident, was never 100% certain about who I was and where I’d came from, what I knew and what I was like, I sorts just stumbled through life innocently making mistakes and not knowing what I did. So whenever I get high, I feel I have a lot of deep rooted problems that shine when I am stoned and tend to takeover my personality to the point I just sit there and don’t even know how to look at someone normally let alone making a conversation. It’s literally like effort, effort to function like a “normal” human without anyone noticing I’m being weird, when really I am just overthinking everything and I just need to embrace where I come from, how I feel, and be confident in my self and have self belief. But at the end of the day no matter how hard I try or think I can “control” my high, as soon as I take a toke it always goes the same way, a roller coaster I am still yet to be able to ride, a wave I still can’t surf smoothly, tbh I feel it’s because I am still 19, and still feel lost, with no self security! There are some benefits too it tho, I am extremely hypersensitive and aware of my surrounding 24/7, when sober I am extremely good at talking and advice, at relating to any sort of problem that someone has due to me having many of my own, and just genuinely being humbled as a person because of what I go through on a day to day basis knowing I hide it well, which means many others will aswel that u just don’t know until you talk to them. But Ye basically I never chose to smoke weed anymore, I understand it’s benefits and how it chills u out and makes you view things differently, but personally I think I need to chill for abit, find my way in life and give it a try abit later down the track in life. I honestly hope atleast 1 person can relate to this or get where I’m coming from without scrolling away half way through 🤣
My brother. I can relate to this post hard , bruh i overthink shit 24/7. Due to my social anxiety , I feel awkward all the time I’m overthinking hoping people aren’t finding me weird and I’m a heavy smoker. I smoke a lot , but the thing is my problems come back like 10x harder when I’m high.
@@abz1up251 Practice not expecting anything from anybody, whatever it is, social, etc. learn to accept and feel your emotions till they naturally fade away(if you do this you will naturally feel more positive emotions over time). Learn to speak slowly. Dont assign meaning to things and practice to not make assumptions. Start having an observing but not judging mindset. Only talk for neccessary and practical reasons. The anxiety could stem from having a big ego(Work on that). Practice self acceptance. Practice all that and in one month your true self will be revealed. Also Look up jordan peterson
I smoked weed for years trying to train myself to enjoy it fully. For a long time I was confused why I had a really different experience to my friends. Most of my mates could have some fat joint and be absolutely fine but me, well I was different. I’d taken cocaine, mdma, acid, mushrooms. None of which really ever caused me to have a sense of dread or paranoia. Acid got a little freaky at times but that was more set and setting rather than my mind being a jumpy internal spectacle. So my experience with weed is this. I’ll smoke I tiny amount in a rolled cigarette. I’d sit back and feel fine for the first five minutes. Suddenly a numbness would come over me. A physical numbness. My body would feel stiff and extremely weighty. Pretty normal right? It’s nice, honestly I actually appreciate that feeling from it. Then the mind starts going over really ridiculous things and I mean ridiculous. The funny thing about it is that I know that the thoughts I’m having are irrational and absolutely hilariously stupid, yet those thoughts terrify me in that moment. I’ll wonder why my heart is beating fast. Whether I’m loosing my mind. If the things I’m feeling are harmful. It’s a very internal fear. The outside world never scares me when I’m high. People don’t scare me when I’m high. It’s I who scares myself. This will go on and on for a few hours. I’ve always tried to tame it. Like somehow I’ll overcome the paranoia and unlock some hidden key to dealing with it. After 6 years of daily intake I can tell you it’s probably not worth unlocking at this point. If you do have weed paranoia like this it’s probably best to stay clear of weed. It can’t be healthy being that freaked out by yourself all the time. If you can find a strain that works for you go for it... I found some strains I absolutely loved, no weirdness, no sketch... I live in the UK where weed is still illegal. Finding a consistent supplier of one strain is hard. One week I’d get a good batch that hit the spot... the next week I’d get a freak out batch. I can honestly say when I have a freak out batch of weed it’s literally more intense mentally than 5 dried grams of mushrooms. I can say that from the bottom of my heart. There’s just some things that ain’t for you, you gotta accept that.
Hit the nail on the head man. I had a real bad time few years ago smoking weed in Cali. Thought I'd try again and had a tiny bit of space cake recently and went into that same hole again. Wrestling with my sanity for what seemed like forever. All internal terror. Never again.
Jack Regan The thing is I often wonder if the experience is the same across the board but some people just ignore those thoughts or enjoy them. I can’t quite put my finger on it. However I can’t say I hate cannabis. There’s a part of me that actually enjoys the mental challenge of loosing it for a bit and trying to hold it together. At the end, you can often feel quite rewarded when you make it out of a tricky mental state brought on by cannabis. However as I said above it’s probably not a healthy experience to be having daily. Mushrooms are more relaxed for me and I’ve often found that to be pretty insane and my friends who are daily weed smokers find it incredibly strange that I can take lots of shrooms and hold it together but a bit of weed sends me into hyperspace.
Javier Martinez Not necessarily. It can be a different set of thoughts and feelings. The must common one is I’m loosing a grip on things. As I said before I’ve done high doses of mushrooms and acid and never felt like I was loosing the plot. Always calm and collected. Sometimes things got edgy but that was more visual than thought. Cannabis just seems to put me in a loop of negative thought. Why? Fuck knows. A part of me used to really enjoy it. The hardcore freak out, mentally taxing situation I’d be put in. However a prolonged experience like that is just devastating to your mental state in my opinion. From experience as well.
baby duck hey man (or woman lmao whatever) a lot of people feel this and you r not alone. This tends to happen to people that overthink. From my experience I get sad and scared, anxious, when I’m high bc I always end up looking at myself from the third person. I end up getting caught in a thought spiral consisting of realization that other people perceive me like I perceive other people. I exist in a world, this world, with other human beings that have conscious. I don’t know if our experiences are similar, but usually I feel weird about myself because of social anxiety. Do I look weird did I say something weird, is he gay am I gay, random tweak ass shit. What helped me was taking a break, and reading books about philosophy and life. If u don’t like reading then maybe work out your insecurities and enjoy the little things in life. Once you have a positive outlook on life and smoke again, it’ll be much more enjoyable. Becoming comfortable realizing that YOU r YOU in this world, this reality, with other humans is important. Instead of looking at everything from an anxious standpoint look at everything as, wow that’s crazy that I exist in this life to experience this beautiful weed w my dope ass friends and that life is beautiful. Enjoy the little things and work out your insecurities. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk
Chuckie Finster bro, thank you! It’s odd to see I experience everything you said word for word, but it feels good to finally have an explanation of some sort.
Chuckie Finster Naa weed is straight trash fucks ur brain and will take you over you become dependent on it and once it grabs ya your ducked trust ik bare people that are on it 247 all day everyday it’ll get you one day
Wait. I get paranoid from smoking weed and my hearth starts beating and its not enhoyable. Is my heart beating fats something to do from too much coffe. I started drinking bout 3 to 6 cups coffe a day last hafl year ago and i cant smoke weed no more! Is tjat cause of coffee??? I need to know?
@@patryktatarzynski727 I know what you mean. Trust me, try smoking a pinch or even half a pinch through a pipe. This is literally all i need to feel all the benefits from various strains. i feel no anxiety or paranoia this way, and I can still leave my home and get things done and interact with people. i used to be able to smoke entire joints alone, but not anymore. I struggled trying to find low thc flowers but they all gave me the same rapid heart rate. then i tried the half pinch on a friday night and it has changed my life ever since. important to note that when you trip, all your suppressed thoughts begin to emerge. it's very important to embrace that type of paranoia. You could resolve a lot within yourself. but until then, smoke a pinch and wait to see how you feel.
Some people need everything in their life to be okay in order to enjoy weed. Others can enjoy it even when their life is falling apart. These are 2 very different kinds of people
Smoking weed and tripping out used be so fun in high school, I’m 25 now and can’t seem to stop overthinking and stressing over life as if I’m running out of time when I’m baked :/
I think the anxiety felt is caused by the sudden and overwhelming expansion in self-awareness (i.e. hyper-awreness). It will show you your subconscious mind and subconscious behaviors. Anxiety is the unaccepted realization of your mortality, fears, insecurities, weaknesses, flaws, etc. Once you forgive/accept yourself the anxiety melts away.
Sometimes the herb humbles you and reminds you that you’re not always meant to be in control of everything in life and sometimes the best experiences come when you just let go
It doesn't humble. It perverts the mind. The insecurity is causes through confusion is not humility. It's demonic oppression and possession. Evil entities feed off of the doubt, and subsequent fear from that questioning of reality.
It’s literally a psychedelic took me so long to figure out because it felt opposite of every other drug I took and it was so non-addictive. But the head space is psychedelic like
yeah i guess,but it also makes you think things that are completely not true and will probably never happen but when your high you do think it will happen and you do believe it which sucks and is not healthy
If you are not doing well in your life and get high you will overthink everything going on and not give you good thoughts. That’s why when your younger and not a lot going on there’s nothing bad to think about
Scrolling through the comments and this one really resonates with me. I’m 22 and used to smoke all throughout hs having a blast with my friends feeling amazing every sesh. Then as I’m in the process of finishing up my degree, taking on more responsibilities, and thinking more about the future and the goals I want to achieve... recently when I smoke I just don’t feel that same carefreeness and joyfulness. Sometimes I dooo get that same feeling, but I think it’s only when the setting is right where as back then it didn’t matter, if I was high I was having a good time. You have a good point, if you got hella shit going on in your life and you’re on your grind. You just can’t be smoking like that and subconsciously you know it and it comes to surface, so the high turns into anxiety.
@@mrpirateplane dude I'm the exact same way. Smoked heavily from when I was 13 to 18 but now when I do I never reach that bliss that I was able to achieve back then. Ends up making me paranoid and depressed. I'm 22 as well and I've smoked maybe 5 times in the past 2 years. Just makes me realize you can't be a kid again. I know this comments old as fuck but i really felt it lol
The worst "bad trips" of my life have been from weed. And that's coming from someone who has taken a full 7 grams of mushrooms before (although that one wasn't a bad trip at all). But, I have taken shrooms, acid, and even salvia countless times, and while I have certainly had some bad anxiety and paranoia on all of those, none of those times could ever hold a candle to the levels of fear, dread and flat out panic that I've experienced just from smoking or eating too much weed.
No doubt I feel you there, that's why for me personally for the way weed affects me, it's the strongest drug I've ever done and Ive tried just about everything. Other ones cause withdrawal and so on so on, but the psychosis thc has caused me a few times was terrifying. That salvia is some crazy shit tho, I seen a scenerio of my into the future and that shit come true. Mind was blown
The worst panic attacks I've ever had were on weed. Relentless heart pounding that just won't let up and feels like it can't get much worse or it'll literally kill me - and the underlying fear that it probably would have. (people have died of cardiac events from pot)
Hey everyone how to stop the anxiety of weed , i smoke too much of it and had a panic attack and it’s lead me to anxiety, it’s been 1 month for me and that feeling still stay , please help me OGS
I just want my old life back , please help me , i don’t wanna live like this , it’s feel like weed just turn on anxiety button inside me and I can’t turn it off
whenever I have weed paranoia I feel like my throat closes up and I can't breathe :/ in my head I KNOW I can breathe, but then my mind tells me, "well what if you suddenly stopped?" Worst experience. I also have a very dry mouth and actually vomited once because I drank so much water during a bad trip.
Weed is not for me most of the time because I OVERTHINK everything. But I have to admit that being stoned and playing videogames literally shuts my inner voice off completely because I'm so immersed in the game lol. I think weed and videogames is a really potent combination and can be really addicting.
I smoked a weed called amnesia (that was my first time smoking smth strong btw) and while we were at it i took a really strong puff which literally burnt my throat and just a bit after that I got EXTREME paranoia and anxiety I already overthink alot during my daily life but after smoking that shit it got EVEN worse Not only did i start shaking and was my heart beating so fast, i also felt like everything was a LITERAL dream I felt like nothing was real, I was in the house with my sister and her boyfriend and they literally thought I was going crazy I couldnt stop word-vomiting whenever I’d start talking and really felt like i COULDNT stop The fear was so intense that id literally thinking I was hallucinating something and Id blank out so easily Anyhow, it was the most TERRIFYING experience in my life i didnt even know my own self at some point
Haha smoked some Amnesia Haze yesterday and I underestimated it and destroyed a whole joint. Very similar experience to you tbh. It really lives up to its name hit me so hard I don’t even remember much apart from time warping for 3 hours and zoning out of the universe. 😩
This happened to me I thought I’d died and everything seemed like I was in a fake reality and everyone was actors I was expecting to look down and see myself dead I actually had to pinch myself at one point it was horrible lasted a few hours think it’s called de realisation
The feeling you get with weed in my opinion just depends on where your mind is currently in that period of your life. If you have unresolved things surrounding you it tends to creep up when high, but when you are having a good time already the weed just makes it that much better. Personally I’ve been having a bit of a weird one I take edibles a lot like every night and usually I’m paranoid thinking I’m gonna die and have a heart attack or I feel extreme guilt for like 30 mins and then the rest of the high is okay. Sometimes I’m fine all together, environment is another factor. I never get paranoid whilst I’m in my own room chilling on my pc.
This. This right here. For some fucking reason I’ll get baked and I’ll think I’m gonna die and have this immense dread but time passes and I end up going “damn we still got Cheetos in the pantry? Shit Sunday night football is on” and it I chill the fuck out.
About ten yrs ago I was high as giraffe pussy, to quote Joe, and playing halo online kicking ass and asking the guy next to me if he saw that headshot, the match finishes and I go for a high five and nobody is fooking there. Those were good times.
I was high playing halo the other night. Took me 4 whole matches before I realized I was in someone else’s apartment pushing buttons on their microwave.
I always test my limits now and everytime I get too high I have to get over the freaking out part and once I do I have the time of my life. Usually takes some water and maybe a walk and one of my favorite songs to get over the paranoia and anxiety. Only one time I was not able to get over it and spent 4 hours having panic attacks in my bedroom and was in a constant state of just doom.
Smoked Weed for 8 years. Took a 3 months break came back and have terrible feelings of doom while worrying about all the bad things I regret in life. Sucks man guess its time to move on...
Literally the exact same man...smoked for a good 7/8 years almost every day had a break came back to it and now every time I smoke im replaying every bad moment of my life over and over and having anxiety about literally everything I think about...I’ve just accepted that maybe my time with weed is done
@@ciankenny6114 wish I didnt start at 11 am 18 now haven't smoked since I was 17 shit changes you kinda wondered how might wouldve turned out had I not fucked my brain development by living 8 years of my life like a party animal lol
I started light at 13 all the way through high school, then 18-20 was pretty much every day smoker, everything great best times ever. Then when I hit 21 my highs just changed completely, like there was just anxiety every time, and believe me I was making excuses that it was temporary, but it never went away. I guess it just affects everyone differently as you age and your mind changes. I don't regret starting early though because I do feel like it opened my mind to a lot more than most.
I think im a person that tends to overthink things in general. Probably why I have never been able to enjoy myself with weed, because even with just a couple of light hits I get super paranoid and start to worry about dumb senseless shit for no reason. Weed has always been a very unpleasant experience for me. I used to feel bad about this and thought it was something i could help, but then my stoner cousins even admitted that weed paranoia is occasionally a reality for them as well, so i know its not just me. Weed makes everyone paranoid. It would be nice if i can enjoy weed as much as my friends and family do but i dont care enough to try and force myself to "ease into it" over time lol. I'll just have to pass on weed for good lol.
I agree - I almost bailed on this vid bc I thought it was going to be more MMA stuff. I almost never watch when that is the topic, because I don't follow it. I like when he has other comedians on the best.
I went to Amsterdam once, had some very strong White Widow marijuana. I was hearing conversations of other people in the coffeeshop who were sitting too far away to be heard from where I was, but I was tuning into something really strange there. Will never forget it.
Taking weed after psychedelics is totally different... I am experiencing the worst thought loop ive ever experienced I am losing my mind, literally In that loop I am losing my mind... And I swear to god there is an entety who is guiding me for some reasion and he talks straight facts. And now I realize he was guiding me to write this comment. And i cant loose my mind... Oh never mind that was just me being high... Oh wait that was the loop... Now I realized I am in a loop... And thats... Oh no I am writing this comment on like a crazy person... What was... Oh I forgot what i was writing about... On bye
@@joy5976 Yes, this was just my first time getting really high after traumatic trip and had hard time to let go, Sadly I cant experience weed "normally" anymore.
was a daily smoker of the herb for years. one day i just started having horrible panic attacks and had to stop. years later i was craving weed. enjoyed it again with no panic attacks. now if i take a puff of weed its a horrible panic attack. its like the weed telling me when i need it and when i dont lol. cant wait for when the herb calls me back. best feeling in the worls is when u smoke weed without any paranoia. life is just simply better lol.
That's what it is for, for atleast normal people same here how can you smoke on do activity I smoke if I want to get a good night sleep or to reflect on things
I’m thinker and I think about life, philosophy, perspectives daily basis. I sometimes get anxious when I hit bong deep for more than 3 times but I’m starting to understand how to allow my self to weed. Now smoking is more enjoyable. Yet when I’m high and alone in a dark room, that gets me anxious sometimes. Let weed do weed things
Everyone that gets anxiety while smoking, try having a whiff at some black pepper or chewing one or two three peppercorns, they have terpenes that help the body relax. I tried it when I was paranoid and it helped me so much, it all faded away
You'll feel like you can't control what you're doing and it makes you paranoid. Sometimes you'll be just paranoid of things you can't control or do while your high but you just gotta let go and realize your safe and what your feeling isn't scary and think of it as something beautiful. When I get paranoid I watch some trippy stuff it helps, then my brain tries to figure out why everything is the way it is lol. Just take some breaths. I promise everything will be okay. It's fine to let go, nothing bad will happen. Your high to relax and chill out, you knew now is a good time because you're safe and relaxed. 💜💜💜🖤🖤🖤💜💜💜
I'm high for at least 6 hours a day, damn near every day, once you get used to it you can absolutely shake it off a little and function. It makes the day to day seem less monotonous and makes everything a little more comfortable and enjoyable, obviously you have to learn how much to take to remain coherent and not pass out, but you'll realize it's more manageable than you'd think.
yeah man u right on that same here baked everyday for last 4 years littro except from when i was working would always have a joint before work when i woke up sorted me for the day then was easier
I had difficulties on lettin go when I was high. I was paranoid if i said something wrong to someone. I could not believe how my brain works, i could not believe my thoughts. After the bad trip I understood that i dont allow myself to think and behave as i am. And taking control not to show who i really am to others was my real issue. Anyway, psychotherapy helps. It gets better really, thanks to my bad trip
I’ve vaped thc a few times now, but tonight was different.. I could see sounds, almost like a comic book text, and also see myself from a 3rd person view. That was really intense but quite fun.
I've noticed (for me at least) when the paranoia or anxiety gets intense, caffeine definitely cuts it to a bearable state. I heard chewing whole peppercorn supposedly works as well but I've yet to try it.
The scariest part of weed is that when you're in the high, you feel terrified. But you act weird, and people laugh at you and think you're silly. And everything might as well be fake. What is reality for you anyways? And then you wake up. After you sober up, you wanna do it again.
@@barakobama9743 it’s all in your head bro, it’s hard bc once u have a bad experience with weed when you get high you start to remember the feelings from before but you have to control your mind and the weed don’t let it control you. I was smoking everyday for a few months and it was great then I had to take a break bc I went on a family trip. So I didn’t smoke for a week then when I came back I got too high and it felt like I was stuck in a loop and I kept feeling like my heart was popping and regenerating I thought I was going to die. I never experienced Andy thing to that intensity since but I had to take a break from weed and now I know to control my mind when I’m high so it doesn’t happen
Even sober my mind is always going. Its just constant thoughts and when i smoke i feel like it just make my thoughts go 3x faster but its all anxious thought. Big rip
I’m currently going through the same thing. Mental health and anxiety is kinda at an all time low/high atm. I’m 23. Used to smoke all day everyday from like 16-21 good quality shit too stuff I look at now and think how the fuck did I do that and stay alive. I remember getting paranoid but not stuck on the paranoia it would just pass pretty quick. Now I take a puff or two and I’m literally blasted thinking the world is gonna end hahahaha. It’s just a sign I think that I need to be sober for a while. Happens even with alcohol and coffee now too and never used to.
Weed was the first drug i tried. I always heard it just made you happy, sleepy, hungry. Boy was there so much more to it for me. It felt like another dimension. I feel when he said he just wanted to hide. It took me a good while to get used to pot. Now I miss being able to get scary stoned 😂.
What did he say that had anything to do with paranoia? I watched the whole video and didn't hear anything about it. I don't just get paranoid when I smoke, I loathe myself when I smoke. I critically find all these reasons I'm a bad person and feel there is nothing I can do to change it. I get stuck in thought loops too. Shockingly, psychedelics like mushrooms work wonderfully for me.
I only occasionally vape a bit these days and having a hectic lifestyle plus being a deep/overthinker at times, I'm partial to the odd pot induced anxiety/paranoia. The best medicine I find is just get busy and give your mind something to focus on. If you're in shape go for a run or hit a bag. I even blitzed all the housework in about 30 minutes once. After 15 mins of not letting your mind wander you'll usually feel good. Plus getting your blood flowing probably helps.
I like that comment...I also believe that taking your time by tiny hits of smoke to adjust to a strain that may work for what has been prescribed and then wait for 10 or 15 minutes to decide if you want to proceed or stop, dont let anyone pressure you into more until you"re sure you can handle it ..then pretty much rinse and repeat( or stop)....your decision...I don"t understand why they dont use public service announcements that explain what you need to know as a beginner. Too many people are ruined by a first experience of too much too soon...Make some time to take your time and enjoy!
The thing I noticed about weed is that when ever I'm talking to someone I can have a completely coherent conversation and have my own separate thoughts simeutously
in a way weed can make you feel good even when youre not feeling good about your life. In a way the paranoia about youre life encourages you to seek a more stable path so you have less to worry about.
I used to hate weed because it would stop my addiction to alcohol benzos and amphetamines all thanks to my doctors. Until one day I got so sick of being an addict I smoked a joint boy did that shit hold me accountable for every thing I did to my body

Weed is AMAZING. When I smoke I feel my organs twitching my throat burns and gets so dry no matter how much water I drink crazy anxiety feel like everyone is staring at me my heart beats fast I feel like I can’t catch my breath driving is a nightmare every cop I see I feel like is about to pull me over. Talk about a great relaxing time.
I smoked weed for last 12 years or so. Then 6mnths back I had a bike accident, with a shoulder fracture. Around 8pm I had the accident, around 10pm I smoked weed like always and I started sweating like hell and my body temperature fell down. Long story short, now I am stucked with Hypochondriasis. 24/7 health anxiety since last 6 months. I want the earlier me, but idk how to. Life is stuck.
Sativa makes me feel like im going crazy, indica makes me feel at peace with the world. Just my personal experience. Sativa makes me feel like I’m floating and have body dissociation and indica makes me feel like my limbs are heavy and body relaxed. But with both strains I will have to lay down after consuming a great amount. I still prefer indica because it doesn't make me feel anxious.
Things like paranoia and anxiety may be a problem because many people smoke too much weed at one time. I once read a suggestion for people to take just two tokes then another two an hour later. Has anyone tried a similar approach to smoking weed?
i really want to enjoy smoking again. i still smoke on a daily basis out of habit but its not how it used to be. i used to be completely fine with smoking, i have an anxiety disorder and it helped me forget about all the silly issues. i started smoking regularly about 6months ago, 4 or 5 puffs on a joint and id be having the best time of my life feeling lightheaded giggly and euphoric, nowadays i dont get that at all because my tolerance had gone up so much once it became a once a day thing. i still get an enjoyable buzz but its not the same. tried a tolerance break a couple times which never lasted more than 4 days. ive also developed strong anxiety shortly after smoking weed recently which sucks as it used to ease the anxiety. one day not long ago after a smoke i had a full anxiety attack, that scared feeling in your gut. i was lying on my bed and started seeing myself in a 3rd person view and my god i hated my appearance, my friend sent me a snapchat of me earlier i only just got around to watching during this experience, and i couldnt stop the overwhelming sense of embarrassment purely just from my appearance and sound of my voice. my confidence was already somewhat low but after this experience its even worse, i still feel a small amount of it such as the dislike in my appearance and self cringing because of it, and weed ever since has caused me to feel anxious and overthink about myself and has made my anxiety while sober worse as well. this has also had affects on depression. weed made me forget about my loneliness and heartbreak from after me and my partner split up but now that it doesnt help with that anymore im only just starting to really feel the emotions i shouldve healed from by now, instead i had been masking them with weed. i know i need to cut down on it or cut it out completely but its so hard once smoking up becomes a daily thing
I love the way Americans are, us Canadians are similar but a more cucky version. We are the most open-minded and socially advanced countries on earth. America has the most innovation ever in human history and Canada is the most educated country to ever exist. It's a beautiful thing.
I overthink way too much while sober. For some reason I decided to smoke weed solo after taking a year long break and it spiralled me into extreme paranoia. Man that crap made me question everything about life. Weed aint for me.
Used to love weed but I’ve developed a little bit of chronic anxiety (as most adults do in America) and the weed just exacerbates that anxiety. To enjoy pot, I have to drink enough to not give a shit first then smoke lol
Weed is really about being relaxed with yourself and whatever you have to do. Thats why you see a lot of successful people that are just rich and reformed and they smoke weed 24/7 and have the best life. People who cant let themselves get loose will get fucked with weed. But people who connect with it and like the feeling will literally smoke until they fall asleep. Theres really no limit for that
The problem for me with weed is it makes me extremely anti social. i prefer to smoke alone and it really trips me out sometimes. I havent had a panic attack but i have experienced my heart racing like a F1 car after weed. it makes me extremely self conscious and i feel like my worls could come down crashing at any moment. I am quitting weed as of 2021 after 7 years of continious use...
I cant smoke with people either they are just to much for me i just need to lay in bed eat sum and watch movies everytime i smoke with friends i always go mute and zone out
@@lukesanchez1024 Once anxiety hits you. You can't keep up. I have relapsed many times but I am trying again and again.in 2021 I smoked for 6 months and quit for 6 months...Clean 2 months in 2022. Hope to keep this way. Life is better off weed..
It takes practice but you can shrug off weed paranoia. Once you do it and and successfully fight through it, you literally feel relief wash over you. You just got to keep your head.
illuca breathe in slow and count to 4, hold your breath for 4 seconds, and breath out for 4 seconds and repeat. It’s a calm breathing technique and it tricks your heart into slowing down. Your body thinks “if I’m breathing calmly, I must be calm” And try to change your focus, if you’re high you’re easily distracted. Focus on something stupid like tracing the lines of your hands or something until the paranoia fades away
This may work for some, but for others it’s simply the only option to just not smoke. Weed can 200% not be for someone and can never ever work for them, as we are all human and every single mind on this planet is different. Some people don’t know them selves well enough to fight off paranoia, they are simply lost in there own mind as to why they feel and think this way and then it just gets overwhelming to the point you make it worse and become more and more anxious as a person. Personally, I am a very friendly social person but as soon as I have some weed I turn quiet and don’t want to talk to anyone, and often get weirded out by my own thoughts thinking things like “who even am I” or “why am I talking with myself”, so for some friendly advice for people that are reading, sometimes the best option is too just not smoke it at all, or if you really enjoy the body element too it where it chills you out but just don’t like how it messes with your head and changes ur perception on things, look into CBD. It relaxes ur body and makes ur body feel stoned where as has literally no affects at all on ur psychic state of mind and you get a sense of feeling free
About two years ago I was really into weed but one day, I was at my friend’s home and right after smoking I’ve eaten too much and I’ve started puking all the night and I collapsed. From that moment every time I Smoke with someone I feel paranoid and a sense of nausea and it’s just like a panic attack. Can someone help me? It happens even when I’m not high and I’m with some friends at restaurants and it makes me feel weak in confront to others
Look up cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome and see if it matches your symptoms if you’re a daily smoker, I got that shit took a break and the nausea is non existent now
There’s some sativas that make your head clear like a pool with the mirror effects easy to focus , the other ones makes you hazy ,can get lost in the sauce of whatever you’re doing it’s the ultimate version of daydreaming and I love it
I used to be in love with getting higher. I’ve been smoking (2 blunts daily being a minimum) for about a year now and it’s nothing like it was when I first started. I used to praise weed because of how it made me feel, the people I’ve met through it, how cheap it is in my area, etc. I still smoke daily but I don’t enjoy it as much anymore because I’m constantly paranoid. I’m always thinking about unrealistic things that don’t matter like if I’m talking weird or if I’m looking at one of my friends weird. It used to really help me with anxiety because it made me not give a fuck, made me feel like my own god honestly, and that there’s nothing to worry about. Now I’m constantly paranoid and anxious as if the only thing it’s doing is making me retarded, it doesn’t calm me anymore. I’ve also noticed changes with my mental state and capacity. I can barely remember what I did a couple days ago or even yesterday sometimes, it takes me a minute to process simple things, it’s made it harder to be social because I’m constantly in a daze and caught up in my head (all of this while even being sober). I’ve been thinking about taking a break but I love weed and always will. It’ll be hard to stop, I don’t know if it’s even the weed causing this or if I’m literally losing my mind. Hopefully someone who’s gone through the same thing can help.
Psycholigy quit smoking honestly trust me you’ll feel much better for it this is very common weed grabs you without you realising it and before you know it your doing it everyday and it then becomes more of a chore than a pleasure as though you feel like you need it it’s just as bad as other drugs honestly but I think it’s worse people are so for it like yeah it’s great when it really isn’t I’d quit now before your relying on it like bare people ik that need it constantly
Tolerance break my guy. Even a week off will make you feel better, and when you go back into it it'll be just like it was. JoRo does the Sober October thing, maybe you should too
Aye man I went through that shit I know this is old but I’m tryna share my experience I went through the same tho and I quit for a while and I just smoked last night and I was hallucinating and shit but weed does fuck with certain people and it’s not for everyone so if you feel like it’s fucking with u more negative than positive then u should probably quit maybe pick it up every once and a while to just have a good time but
The only Time I ever got paranoid from weed and hash was when I smoked 5 or 6 joints in a row when I went camping a few years ago and I kept thinking someone was outside me and my girlfriends tent then every time I peeked my head out I kept thinking I saw shadows and figures
I personally hate the feeling of weed, my mind goes insane thinking of stupid shit and I can’t shut it off. I get super awkward around people. God forbid I go somewhere in public. Even if it didn’t bother me physiologically, I can’t stand the physical feelings either. My whole body feels heavy, my throat and mouth get dry, I breath weird. I just feel gross. I wish I could feel the benefits of weed but oh well, don’t worry about shit you can’t control.
Theres alot of teachings in the fears involved with using cannabis. Amazing in general to have something that can show you your fears without being in a deadly situation. A good advice would be: Beware of unnatural environments (unattatched people and heavy industry) its will take anyone with a pure sight out. Cause it feels dead and it feel dead because of the asymmetry in the frequencies that you breathe in, listen to and resonate to with your "eye sight". Everything is energy, it can be stored in walls, in the air around us and comes mostly from living creatures. Imagine what happens to you if you turn up the volume on your loudspeaker while playing shitty music or crazy sounds. Same thing. Different story. We must be good inside to leave a good footprint. Sadly there are alot of drains walking around that either from internal og external problems, cannot help but to leave the place ruined for others. That where being different is awesome. We dont see things alike and often that comes to ones benefit. I hope this new vision can be usefull with or without mj.
I think people who overthink things are more susceptible to weed paranoia
No shit
Egg Head yeah, but what’s going on with weed that you have to be in the right mindset and setting? It wasn’t always like this. We’re talking about weed not shrooming or dropping a tab. I used to smoke heavily back in the day. Owned bongs, a steamroller and a nice collection of bowls. I think the paranoia is a result of age and the real world. Weed is for young teens and twenties when you don’t have a care in the world or any real responsibilities.
Im a natural overthinker........and weed makes me paranoid. But there are a few times when it didn't
TappatopShotta Yeah i overthink a lot, and when i smoked weed i felt like i had a fucking seizure, never smoking again
You hit the nail in the coffin
I have suffered from weed anxiety/paranoia and after thinking about it for a while and learning more about the mind/conscious. I think the paranoia what kicks in as soon as you smoke is the ego not wanting to let go. Once you let go and accept that your high I think everything is a lot more chill.
So true
I always get paranoid but I think I’m ready. When I smoke a little I love the way it enables me to analyse my life and check myself. I think I just smoked to much before because I don’t smoke regularly and it was probably too much
The reason the first 20 mins or so of the hit is the worst for anxiety is cuz thats when the dopamine peaks and dopamine is what causes the spiraling of emotions.
Yep
This is interesting. Because for me, the anxiety and paranoia always come at the start of the high. Sometimes it's milde but sometimes it can be really rough. You just get sucked into this dark sphere of negative emotions and feelings. But this usually lasts for 5-20 minutes at max, then it just completely disappears and I can enjoy my high is a normal person. But for some strange reason, the first minutes of my high can be really dark. Short lasting, but intense.

Got so baked I heard whispering behind me and proceeded to believe I became schizophrenic lmao I couldnt help but laugh about it 40 minutes later
happened to me but with my neighbours, the fuckers were partying and the screaming i thought came from my head, hilarious shit
I hear voices and see smiling faces in everything.... And that's just weed... Not for me 😂 even after coffee, I'm a sweaty bugged eyed mess.
Broto theWilliams you had a psychotic experience. Been there done that, I was like convinced I have schizophrenia
@@arnavsingh7525 bro how do you cope with that. I'm 18 rn started smking when I turned 13 and then on everyday till I was 17. Smoked massive amounts everyday that mixed with a head injury didnt bode well for my future smking weed. It used to just make everything funny and alot clearer than it was. Now when I try to smoke I have to convince myself everything is going to be ok constantly. What also fucked with me was that I made a pact with myself to never smoke again then was kinda forced into going to a party and had a good 20 inhales of a high concentration sativa blunt. I was fucked playing beer pong I'd lose the ball everytime it was my shot😂
I hear voices a lot when I’m high but I’m still not sure if it’s in my head or if it’s real because it’s always the same voices ( they sound like arguing male and female) I try to pinpoint the location of the voices and it’s always coming from the same spot ( I smoke at the AM hours in my balcony to not disturb anyone ) it comes from my neighbors house but when I check all the lights are off there’s no activity and everyone is asleep also when I get close to their house from my balcony there’s no sound or anything but as soon as I backdown and get back to the position I was I start hearing the arguing again, it’s always in the same hours and it’s always aggressive arguing but like they’re whispering. I can hear it clearly in some specific spots in my balcony ( that’s really odd ) and in other spots there’s no sound at all. Overall a weird experience still haven’t been able to confirm if it’s real or not. Also the voices speak in like a hush tone so it’s literally impossible to figure out what they are saying but how they are saying sounds like arguing of some kind by the tone.
When i was a teen i could smoke all day and be chill now im in my late 30s and when i smoke i start thinking about my bills my child support my car payment and anxiety takes over its not fun anymore.
😂😂😂😂
I think your on to something here. When your 15 there's not a care in the world. No bills, no responsibility, no nothin. THAT'S IT!
Over thinker you need to smoke all day everyday or not at all.
Exactly bro I hate it
me too how do i make feel fun like befor
one of my worst trips had tons of paranoia. It made me stop smoking for years until I tried it again this summer and finally learned how to handle it. it's all about controlling your breathing, and learning how to "ride the high", by keeping a relaxed mind. Just let it happen. Remind yourself that this is what you're going to do, and calm your brain through quick meditation beforehand. It's similar to what you should do before taking a psychadelic.
I nearly fell into paranoia again at the start of this summer after vaping weed resin, something called a torch. It hit after 30 minutes, and first thing I felt was a warm sensation throughout my body. I wasn't sure what it is at first so my heartrate increased. Then I just let it happen. We stopped someplace for ice cream, and when I stepped inside I felt social anxiety. It told me that it's an issue I've been subconsciously dealing with and I never realized it.
We go back in the car, and I just lean the seat back, and slouch. I stared at the top of the car for what felt like hours before focusing outside the window and watching things pass by. If I'd focus too much, it would make my heartrate increase, and things would zoom in exponentially before I looked away. Afterwards, I just told my brain to let the rest of the high happen,a nd it was smooth sailing from there.
Just let the high take control. It'll teach you things you never knew about yourself.
When i get high the moment it hits i litteraly feel like FUCKKKK im about to be trying to stay alive for the nxt few hours
😂😂😂
honest
Word
See that’s where u fucked up at as soon as you think negative shit like that if fucks it up. People need to understand that thoughts shape reality. And also when high keep in mind that you are not your thoughts that’s help anxiety and paranoia but still weed ain’t for everybody.
Yep 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
i get a 5-10 min paranoia then it goes away and I love how i feel
When you're high asf 10 mins seems like an hour tho lol
Yeah same, it only happens at the beginning of the high for me, after about 15 min I’m chillin
Mine lasts for hours fuck that
pnbdash I’m actually so happy I know I’m not the only one ahahah
pnbdash same bro I don’t like that but then I feel good
With my paranoia, when I’m sober I always think about how and why it happens to me, and tbh I kinda believe I have worked myself out and the reasons as to why I get like this unlike all my friends. When I really think about it, it’s obvious. I didn’t have a hard childhood in terms of money and a good home, but I did lose my mother at the age of 7months old, and it really started to affect me as I got older. I always felt lost in life, I was never confident, was never 100% certain about who I was and where I’d came from, what I knew and what I was like, I sorts just stumbled through life innocently making mistakes and not knowing what I did. So whenever I get high, I feel I have a lot of deep rooted problems that shine when I am stoned and tend to takeover my personality to the point I just sit there and don’t even know how to look at someone normally let alone making a conversation. It’s literally like effort, effort to function like a “normal” human without anyone noticing I’m being weird, when really I am just overthinking everything and I just need to embrace where I come from, how I feel, and be confident in my self and have self belief. But at the end of the day no matter how hard I try or think I can “control” my high, as soon as I take a toke it always goes the same way, a roller coaster I am still yet to be able to ride, a wave I still can’t surf smoothly, tbh I feel it’s because I am still 19, and still feel lost, with no self security! There are some benefits too it tho, I am extremely hypersensitive and aware of my surrounding 24/7, when sober I am extremely good at talking and advice, at relating to any sort of problem that someone has due to me having many of my own, and just genuinely being humbled as a person because of what I go through on a day to day basis knowing I hide it well, which means many others will aswel that u just don’t know until you talk to them. But Ye basically I never chose to smoke weed anymore, I understand it’s benefits and how it chills u out and makes you view things differently, but personally I think I need to chill for abit, find my way in life and give it a try abit later down the track in life. I honestly hope atleast 1 person can relate to this or get where I’m coming from without scrolling away half way through 🤣
Bro wanna know the solution. Keep your ego small, your joints big. Guaranteed high.
My brother. I can relate to this post hard , bruh i overthink shit 24/7. Due to my social anxiety , I feel awkward all the time I’m overthinking hoping people aren’t finding me weird and I’m a heavy smoker. I smoke a lot , but the thing is my problems come back like 10x harder when I’m high.
@@abz1up251 Practice not expecting anything from anybody, whatever it is, social, etc. learn to accept and feel your emotions till they naturally fade away(if you do this you will naturally feel more positive emotions over time). Learn to speak slowly. Dont assign meaning to things and practice to not make assumptions. Start having an observing but not judging mindset. Only talk for neccessary and practical reasons. The anxiety could stem from having a big ego(Work on that). Practice self acceptance. Practice all that and in one month your true self will be revealed. Also Look up jordan peterson
Thank you for this post man.
vorname nachname thank you brother I will take in you’re advice
I smoked weed for years trying to train myself to enjoy it fully.
For a long time I was confused why I had a really different experience to my friends. Most of my mates could have some fat joint and be absolutely fine but me, well I was different.
I’d taken cocaine, mdma, acid, mushrooms. None of which really ever caused me to have a sense of dread or paranoia. Acid got a little freaky at times but that was more set and setting rather than my mind being a jumpy internal spectacle.
So my experience with weed is this. I’ll smoke I tiny amount in a rolled cigarette. I’d sit back and feel fine for the first five minutes. Suddenly a numbness would come over me. A physical numbness. My body would feel stiff and extremely weighty. Pretty normal right? It’s nice, honestly I actually appreciate that feeling from it.
Then the mind starts going over really ridiculous things and I mean ridiculous.
The funny thing about it is that I know that the thoughts I’m having are irrational and absolutely hilariously stupid, yet those thoughts terrify me in that moment.
I’ll wonder why my heart is beating fast.
Whether I’m loosing my mind.
If the things I’m feeling are harmful.
It’s a very internal fear.
The outside world never scares me when I’m high.
People don’t scare me when I’m high.
It’s I who scares myself.
This will go on and on for a few hours.
I’ve always tried to tame it.
Like somehow I’ll overcome the paranoia and unlock some hidden key to dealing with it. After 6 years of daily intake I can tell you it’s probably not worth unlocking at this point.
If you do have weed paranoia like this it’s probably best to stay clear of weed.
It can’t be healthy being that freaked out by yourself all the time.
If you can find a strain that works for you go for it...
I found some strains I absolutely loved, no weirdness, no sketch... I live in the UK where weed is still illegal. Finding a consistent supplier of one strain is hard.
One week I’d get a good batch that hit the spot... the next week I’d get a freak out batch.
I can honestly say when I have a freak out batch of weed it’s literally more intense mentally than 5 dried grams of mushrooms.
I can say that from the bottom of my heart. There’s just some things that ain’t for you, you gotta accept that.
Hit the nail on the head man. I had a real bad time few years ago smoking weed in Cali.
Thought I'd try again and had a tiny bit of space cake recently and went into that same hole again. Wrestling with my sanity for what seemed like forever. All internal terror.
Never again.
Jack Regan The thing is I often wonder if the experience is the same across the board but some people just ignore those thoughts or enjoy them. I can’t quite put my finger on it. However I can’t say I hate cannabis. There’s a part of me that actually enjoys the mental challenge of loosing it for a bit and trying to hold it together. At the end, you can often feel quite rewarded when you make it out of a tricky mental state brought on by cannabis. However as I said above it’s probably not a healthy experience to be having daily. Mushrooms are more relaxed for me and I’ve often found that to be pretty insane and my friends who are daily weed smokers find it incredibly strange that I can take lots of shrooms and hold it together but a bit of weed sends me into hyperspace.
Is it that u think about something everytime u smoke and everytime u smoke that's thought always comes
Javier Martinez
Not necessarily. It can be a different set of thoughts and feelings.
The must common one is I’m loosing a grip on things. As I said before I’ve done high doses of mushrooms and acid and never felt like I was loosing the plot. Always calm and collected. Sometimes things got edgy but that was more visual than thought.
Cannabis just seems to put me in a loop of negative thought. Why?
Fuck knows.
A part of me used to really enjoy it.
The hardcore freak out, mentally taxing situation I’d be put in.
However a prolonged experience like that is just devastating to your mental state in my opinion.
From experience as well.
very interesting thanks for sharing
weed just makes me feel weird about myself i dont like it.
baby duck hey man (or woman lmao whatever) a lot of people feel this and you r not alone. This tends to happen to people that overthink. From my experience I get sad and scared, anxious, when I’m high bc I always end up looking at myself from the third person. I end up getting caught in a thought spiral consisting of realization that other people perceive me like I perceive other people. I exist in a world, this world, with other human beings that have conscious. I don’t know if our experiences are similar, but usually I feel weird about myself because of social anxiety. Do I look weird did I say something weird, is he gay am I gay, random tweak ass shit. What helped me was taking a break, and reading books about philosophy and life. If u don’t like reading then maybe work out your insecurities and enjoy the little things in life. Once you have a positive outlook on life and smoke again, it’ll be much more enjoyable. Becoming comfortable realizing that YOU r YOU in this world, this reality, with other humans is important. Instead of looking at everything from an anxious standpoint look at everything as, wow that’s crazy that I exist in this life to experience this beautiful weed w my dope ass friends and that life is beautiful. Enjoy the little things and work out your insecurities.

@@patryktatarzynski727 I know what you mean. Trust me, try smoking a pinch or even half a pinch through a pipe. This is literally all i need to feel all the benefits from various strains. i feel no anxiety or paranoia this way, and I can still leave my home and get things done and interact with people. i used to be able to smoke entire joints alone, but not anymore. I struggled trying to find low thc flowers but they all gave me the same rapid heart rate. then i tried the half pinch on a friday night and it has changed my life ever since. important to note that when you trip, all your suppressed thoughts begin to emerge. it's very important to embrace that type of paranoia. You could resolve a lot within yourself. but until then, smoke a pinch and wait to see how you feel.

Some people need everything in their life to be okay in order to enjoy weed. Others can enjoy it even when their life is falling apart. These are 2 very different kinds of people

I think the anxiety felt is caused by the sudden and overwhelming expansion in self-awareness (i.e. hyper-awreness). It will show you your subconscious mind and subconscious behaviors. Anxiety is the unaccepted realization of your mortality, fears, insecurities, weaknesses, flaws, etc. Once you forgive/accept yourself the anxiety melts away.
Sometimes the herb humbles you and reminds you that you’re not always meant to be in control of everything in life and sometimes the best experiences come when you just let go
that’s facts
It doesn't humble. It perverts the mind. The insecurity is causes through confusion is not humility. It's demonic oppression and possession. Evil entities feed off of the doubt, and subsequent fear from that questioning of reality.

I think the paranoia makes you realize things you might not notice sober..... which can be good and bad.
It’s literally a psychedelic took me so long to figure out because it felt opposite of every other drug I took and it was so non-addictive. But the head space is psychedelic like
yeah i guess,but it also makes you think things that are completely not true and will probably never happen but when your high you do think it will happen and you do believe it which sucks and is not healthy
If you are not doing well in your life and get high you will overthink everything going on and not give you good thoughts. That’s why when your younger and not a lot going on there’s nothing bad to think about
Scrolling through the comments and this one really resonates with me. I’m 22 and used to smoke all throughout hs having a blast with my friends feeling amazing every sesh. Then as I’m in the process of finishing up my degree, taking on more responsibilities, and thinking more about the future and the goals I want to achieve... recently when I smoke I just don’t feel that same carefreeness and joyfulness. Sometimes I dooo get that same feeling, but I think it’s only when the setting is right where as back then it didn’t matter, if I was high I was having a good time. You have a good point, if you got hella shit going on in your life and you’re on your grind. You just can’t be smoking like that and subconsciously you know it and it comes to surface, so the high turns into anxiety.
That’s not true I know a lot of niggas not doing good in life that smokes with no problems lol
But I get what u saying
@@mrpirateplane dude I'm the exact same way. Smoked heavily from when I was 13 to 18 but now when I do I never reach that bliss that I was able to achieve back then. Ends up making me paranoid and depressed. I'm 22 as well and I've smoked maybe 5 times in the past 2 years. Just makes me realize you can't be a kid again. I know this comments old as fuck but i really felt it lol
Best way to explain it!!
Then I went "HA".......to me FUKIN self. 😂😂😂😂
Stephen Edwards one of the most British things I've ever heard in me life
The worst "bad trips" of my life have been from weed. And that's coming from someone who has taken a full 7 grams of mushrooms before (although that one wasn't a bad trip at all). But, I have taken shrooms, acid, and even salvia countless times, and while I have certainly had some bad anxiety and paranoia on all of those, none of those times could ever hold a candle to the levels of fear, dread and flat out panic that I've experienced just from smoking or eating too much weed.
No doubt I feel you there, that's why for me personally for the way weed affects me, it's the strongest drug I've ever done and Ive tried just about everything. Other ones cause withdrawal and so on so on, but the psychosis thc has caused me a few times was terrifying. That salvia is some crazy shit tho, I seen a scenerio of my into the future and that shit come true. Mind was blown
@@stephencarr4238 yes I do believe salvia can be a tool for seeing through time, both past and future, as well as parallel realities
The worst panic attacks I've ever had were on weed. Relentless heart pounding that just won't let up and feels like it can't get much worse or it'll literally kill me - and the underlying fear that it probably would have. (people have died of cardiac events from pot)
Hey everyone how to stop the anxiety of weed , i smoke too much of it and had a panic attack and it’s lead me to anxiety, it’s been 1 month for me and that feeling still stay , please help me OGS
I just want my old life back , please help me , i don’t wanna live like this , it’s feel like weed just turn on anxiety button inside me and I can’t turn it off
whenever I have weed paranoia I feel like my throat closes up and I can't breathe :/ in my head I KNOW I can breathe, but then my mind tells me, "well what if you suddenly stopped?" Worst experience. I also have a very dry mouth and actually vomited once because I drank so much water during a bad trip.
That was me last night man it was horrible
same and i thought everyone and everything was fake and out to get me. I literally thought i was dead or dying.
That literally just happened to me about a week ago. I kept drinking water and tried to lay down and threw up. I’m taking a long break from weed
Weed is not for me most of the time because I OVERTHINK everything. But I have to admit that being stoned and playing videogames literally shuts my inner voice off completely because I'm so immersed in the game lol. I think weed and videogames is a really potent combination and can be really addicting.
I feel you but with movies and music videoclips, because if I try to play videogames while stoned I´ll be bad AF LOL
I'm never really into video games but watching movies while high is cooll
as someone who gets really paranoid when they smoke weed , can confirm it’s fucking terrible
thank god theres other people like me
You’ll be ok. Just relax you aren’t gonna die, and you aren’t gonna pass out. So there’s NOTHING to fear.
@@BradPwnsU actually the paranoia trip can last for months or years.. so it is cause for concern
I smoked a weed called amnesia (that was my first time smoking smth strong btw) and while we were at it i took a really strong puff which literally burnt my throat
and just a bit after that I got EXTREME paranoia and anxiety
I already overthink alot during my daily life but after smoking that shit it got EVEN worse
Not only did i start shaking and was my heart beating so fast, i also felt like everything was a LITERAL dream
I felt like nothing was real, I was in the house with my sister and her boyfriend and they literally thought I was going crazy
I couldnt stop word-vomiting whenever I’d start talking
and really felt like i COULDNT stop
The fear was so intense that id literally thinking I was hallucinating something
and Id blank out so easily
Anyhow, it was the most TERRIFYING experience in my life
i didnt even know my own self at some point
Haha smoked some Amnesia Haze yesterday and I underestimated it and destroyed a whole joint. Very similar experience to you tbh. It really lives up to its name hit me so hard I don’t even remember much apart from time warping for 3 hours and zoning out of the universe. 😩
This happened to me I thought I’d died and everything seemed like I was in a fake reality and everyone was actors I was expecting to look down and see myself dead I actually had to pinch myself at one point it was horrible lasted a few hours think it’s called de realisation
Omg this happened to me... I felt trapped in my mind, as though I was watching myself through my mind. I felt stuck like I just wasn’t real.
THIS HAPPENED TO ME
LLC X yes that’s what happened to me. never ever doing it again
The feeling you get with weed in my opinion just depends on where your mind is currently in that period of your life. If you have unresolved things surrounding you it tends to creep up when high, but when you are having a good time already the weed just makes it that much better.
Personally I’ve been having a bit of a weird one I take edibles a lot like every night and usually I’m paranoid thinking I’m gonna die and have a heart attack or I feel extreme guilt for like 30 mins and then the rest of the high is okay.
Sometimes I’m fine all together, environment is another factor. I never get paranoid whilst I’m in my own room chilling on my pc.
This. This right here.
For some fucking reason I’ll get baked and I’ll think I’m gonna die and have this immense dread but time passes and I end up going “damn we still got Cheetos in the pantry? Shit Sunday night football is on” and it I chill the fuck out.
About ten yrs ago I was high as giraffe pussy, to quote Joe, and playing halo online kicking ass and asking the guy next to me if he saw that headshot, the match finishes and I go for a high five and nobody is fooking there. Those were good times.
ever take LSD or psilocybin ? you could have had a flashback
I was high playing halo the other night. Took me 4 whole matches before I realized I was in someone else’s apartment pushing buttons on their microwave.
Dashoost psilocybin, was fun but never messed with lsd.

Sicarius flashbacks are craziness... You can flip out on those cause you have no warning.

The only thing you need to never have a bad high is to have some really close and good freinds around
Right. Smoking alone you get in your thoughts and some people aren’t comfortable with that.
People can have a different view on this. People that are bound to have paranoia can’t control where
I bringing my my self to watch this high, I’m finding my life difficult it’s hard to stay off the weed I feel weightless,
I always test my limits now and everytime I get too high I have to get over the freaking out part and once I do I have the time of my life. Usually takes some water and maybe a walk and one of my favorite songs to get over the paranoia and anxiety. Only one time I was not able to get over it and spent 4 hours having panic attacks in my bedroom and was in a constant state of just doom.
Smoked Weed for 8 years. Took a 3 months break came back and have terrible feelings of doom while worrying about all the bad things I regret in life. Sucks man guess its time to move on...
Literally the exact same man...smoked for a good 7/8 years almost every day had a break came back to it and now every time I smoke im replaying every bad moment of my life over and over and having anxiety about literally everything I think about...I’ve just accepted that maybe my time with weed is done
That’s me
those of us that started heavy in high school have been baptized by the herb
Bruh I started at 14 I’m not 16 ahhahahh
@The Mack maybe your just sleep as fuck and they're woke
@@ciankenny6114 wish I didnt start at 11 am 18 now haven't smoked since I was 17 shit changes you kinda wondered how might wouldve turned out had I not fucked my brain development by living 8 years of my life like a party animal lol
FBI ReaL yeah I’m 17 now and I stopped smoking it played with my head and was giving me really bad anxiety.
I started light at 13 all the way through high school, then 18-20 was pretty much every day smoker, everything great best times ever. Then when I hit 21 my highs just changed completely, like there was just anxiety every time, and believe me I was making excuses that it was temporary, but it never went away. I guess it just affects everyone differently as you age and your mind changes. I don't regret starting early though because I do feel like it opened my mind to a lot more than most.
I just get dissociation, paranoia and anxiety at the come up. Then I still have hallucinations but it’s a nice high
@Dakoda Fisher lmap my brother gave me a 500 mg edible first time trying marijuana when I was 15 one hell of an experience
I think im a person that tends to overthink things in general. Probably why I have never been able to enjoy myself with weed, because even with just a couple of light hits I get super paranoid and start to worry about dumb senseless shit for no reason. Weed has always been a very unpleasant experience for me. I used to feel bad about this and thought it was something i could help, but then my stoner cousins even admitted that weed paranoia is occasionally a reality for them as well, so i know its not just me. Weed makes everyone paranoid. It would be nice if i can enjoy weed as much as my friends and family do but i dont care enough to try and force myself to "ease into it" over time lol. I'll just have to pass on weed for good lol.
Coming from a ex stoner from Chicago the environment forced anxiety on me,been thc free for years now,no reason to enjoy it anymore,peace an love

was a daily smoker of the herb for years. one day i just started having horrible panic attacks and had to stop. years later i was craving weed. enjoyed it again with no panic attacks. now if i take a puff of weed its a horrible panic attack. its like the weed telling me when i need it and when i dont lol. cant wait for when the herb calls me back. best feeling in the worls is when u smoke weed without any paranoia. life is just simply better lol.
Same here, Been daily for 4 years and all of a sudden I have non stop anxiety from it.
Joe “I like it for just relaxation and reflection” Rogan
That's what it is for, for atleast normal people same here how can you smoke on do activity I smoke if I want to get a good night sleep or to reflect on things
I’m thinker and I think about life, philosophy, perspectives daily basis. I sometimes get anxious when I hit bong deep for more than 3 times but I’m starting to understand how to allow my self to weed. Now smoking is more enjoyable. Yet when I’m high and alone in a dark room, that gets me anxious sometimes.
Let weed do weed things
I used to smoke an OZ a week but I can’t handle weed anymore. Even after taking one hit, I get so paranoid and sad. I can’t enjoy it anymore
I figured out a way to stop being paranoid. Whenever those thoughts come in i treat it like an unwanted spirit and tell it to fuck off
Everyone that gets anxiety while smoking, try having a whiff at some black pepper or chewing one or two three peppercorns, they have terpenes that help the body relax. I tried it when I was paranoid and it helped me so much, it all faded away
Lol cut to me squeezing lemon juice in my eye coughing on pepper with cotton mouth.
Yeah black pepper and water with lemon r the combo if ur paranoid
And eating something tho will help
Derealization & Deperzonaliation is horrid, got it from smoking & the trip was crazyyy
You'll feel like you can't control what you're doing and it makes you paranoid.
Sometimes you'll be just paranoid of things you can't control or do while your high but you just gotta let go and realize your safe and what your feeling isn't scary and think of it as something beautiful.
When I get paranoid I watch some trippy stuff it helps, then my brain tries to figure out why everything is the way it is lol.
Just take some breaths.
I promise everything will be okay.
It's fine to let go, nothing bad will happen.
Your high to relax and chill out, you knew now is a good time because you're safe and relaxed.
💜💜💜🖤🖤🖤💜💜💜
i only get weed paranoia when i walk home from my girls house at 2am
I'm high for at least 6 hours a day, damn near every day, once you get used to it you can absolutely shake it off a little and function. It makes the day to day seem less monotonous and makes everything a little more comfortable and enjoyable, obviously you have to learn how much to take to remain coherent and not pass out, but you'll realize it's more manageable than you'd think.
yeah man u right on that same here baked everyday for last 4 years littro except from when i was working would always have a joint before work when i woke up sorted me for the day then was easier
Doesn't sound healthy to be honest mate
@@simbrack1195 probably isnt bro but what is these days
I had difficulties on lettin go when I was high. I was paranoid if i said something wrong to someone. I could not believe how my brain works, i could not believe my thoughts. After the bad trip I understood that i dont allow myself to think and behave as i am. And taking control not to show who i really am to others was my real issue. Anyway, psychotherapy helps. It gets better really, thanks to my bad trip
I’ve vaped thc a few times now, but tonight was different.. I could see sounds, almost like a comic book text, and also see myself from a 3rd person view. That was really intense but quite fun.
I've noticed (for me at least) when the paranoia or anxiety gets intense, caffeine definitely cuts it to a bearable state. I heard chewing whole peppercorn supposedly works as well but I've yet to try it.
The scariest part of weed is that when you're in the high, you feel terrified. But you act weird, and people laugh at you and think you're silly. And everything might as well be fake. What is reality for you anyways?
And then you wake up. After you sober up, you wanna do it again.
for people with anxiety/paranoia from weed, just remember: its not that fucking important bro, let loose
I used to be able to smoke constantly and felt great, now I can't even smoke a joint without slightly freaking out in my mind with anxiety
How old are you I’m 19 and that shit happened it’s annoying
@@barakobama9743 it’s all in your head bro, it’s hard bc once u have a bad experience with weed when you get high you start to remember the feelings from before but you have to control your mind and the weed don’t let it control you. I was smoking everyday for a few months and it was great then I had to take a break bc I went on a family trip. So I didn’t smoke for a week then when I came back I got too high and it felt like I was stuck in a loop and I kept feeling like my heart was popping and regenerating I thought I was going to die. I never experienced Andy thing to that intensity since but I had to take a break from weed and now I know to control my mind when I’m high so it doesn’t happen
@@iam03j32 thanks bro appreciate it
I never used to get paranoid but I had one bad experience and now it happens often. Sucks mate
Even sober my mind is always going. Its just constant thoughts and when i smoke i feel like it just make my thoughts go 3x faster but its all anxious thought. Big rip
I’m currently going through the same thing. Mental health and anxiety is kinda at an all time low/high atm. I’m 23. Used to smoke all day everyday from like 16-21 good quality shit too stuff I look at now and think how the fuck did I do that and stay alive. I remember getting paranoid but not stuck on the paranoia it would just pass pretty quick. Now I take a puff or two and I’m literally blasted thinking the world is gonna end hahahaha. It’s just a sign I think that I need to be sober for a while. Happens even with alcohol and coffee now too and never used to.
Weed was the first drug i tried. I always heard it just made you happy, sleepy, hungry. Boy was there so much more to it for me. It felt like another dimension. I feel when he said he just wanted to hide. It took me a good while to get used to pot. Now I miss being able to get scary stoned 😂.
What did he say that had anything to do with paranoia? I watched the whole video and didn't hear anything about it.
I don't just get paranoid when I smoke, I loathe myself when I smoke. I critically find all these reasons I'm a bad person and feel there is nothing I can do to change it. I get stuck in thought loops too. Shockingly, psychedelics like mushrooms work wonderfully for me.
Same dude...
Paranoia is why i quit heard you can eat black pepper to counteract it
I only occasionally vape a bit these days and having a hectic lifestyle plus being a deep/overthinker at times, I'm partial to the odd pot induced anxiety/paranoia. The best medicine I find is just get busy and give your mind something to focus on. If you're in shape go for a run or hit a bag. I even blitzed all the housework in about 30 minutes once. After 15 mins of not letting your mind wander you'll usually feel good. Plus getting your blood flowing probably helps.
I like that comment...I also believe that taking your time by tiny hits of smoke to adjust to a strain that may work for what has been prescribed and then wait for 10 or 15 minutes to decide if you want to proceed or stop, dont let anyone pressure you into more until you"re sure you can handle it ..then pretty much rinse and repeat( or stop)....your decision...I don"t understand why they dont use public service announcements that explain what you need to know as a beginner. Too many people are ruined by a first experience of too much too soon...Make some time to take your time and enjoy!
This was a pretty good one. "Gotta EASSSSE into it." So true. Didnt care much to hear about fighting.
The thing I noticed about weed is that when ever I'm talking to someone I can have a completely coherent conversation and have my own separate thoughts simeutously
Last night I was jogging around my neighbourhood 3am trying to get rid of the high because I thought it was giving me a heart attack.
damn why tf do i feel like that at times
in reality i think it’s just me over thinking
The what if scenarios and paranoia with vomiting is the worst part of smoking weed long term.
Yep I have to be very careful. I take tiny little hits until I feel it a little and then I quit. If I get any higher I go straight into paranoid zone
in a way weed can make you feel good even when youre not feeling good about your life. In a way the paranoia about youre life encourages you to seek a more stable path so you have less to worry about.
Fax bro

Weed is AMAZING. When I smoke I feel my organs twitching my throat burns and gets so dry no matter how much water I drink crazy anxiety feel like everyone is staring at me my heart beats fast I feel like I can’t catch my breath driving is a nightmare every cop I see I feel like is about to pull me over. Talk about a great relaxing time.
I smoked weed for last 12 years or so.
Then 6mnths back I had a bike accident, with a shoulder fracture.
Around 8pm I had the accident, around 10pm I smoked weed like always and I started sweating like hell and my body temperature fell down.
Long story short, now I am stucked with Hypochondriasis.
24/7 health anxiety since last 6 months.
I want the earlier me, but idk how to.
Life is stuck.
The only time I get paranoia is if I'm in public or I've taken a crazy obscene amount of edibles
Sativa makes me feel like im going crazy, indica makes me feel at peace with the world. Just my personal experience. Sativa makes me feel like I’m floating and have body dissociation and indica makes me feel like my limbs are heavy and body relaxed. But with both strains I will have to lay down after consuming a great amount. I still prefer indica because it doesn't make me feel anxious.
Things like paranoia and anxiety may be a problem because many people smoke too much weed at one time. I once read a suggestion for people to take just two tokes then another two an hour later. Has anyone tried a similar approach to smoking weed?
Take 1-2 puffs then I wait 10-20 mins. See how you feel, if you’re good then take another 1-2 puffs
i really want to enjoy smoking again. i still smoke on a daily basis out of habit but its not how it used to be. i used to be completely fine with smoking, i have an anxiety disorder and it helped me forget about all the silly issues. i started smoking regularly about 6months ago, 4 or 5 puffs on a joint and id be having the best time of my life feeling lightheaded giggly and euphoric, nowadays i dont get that at all because my tolerance had gone up so much once it became a once a day thing. i still get an enjoyable buzz but its not the same. tried a tolerance break a couple times which never lasted more than 4 days. ive also developed strong anxiety shortly after smoking weed recently which sucks as it used to ease the anxiety. one day not long ago after a smoke i had a full anxiety attack, that scared feeling in your gut. i was lying on my bed and started seeing myself in a 3rd person view and my god i hated my appearance, my friend sent me a snapchat of me earlier i only just got around to watching during this experience, and i couldnt stop the overwhelming sense of embarrassment purely just from my appearance and sound of my voice. my confidence was already somewhat low but after this experience its even worse, i still feel a small amount of it such as the dislike in my appearance and self cringing because of it, and weed ever since has caused me to feel anxious and overthink about myself and has made my anxiety while sober worse as well. this has also had affects on depression. weed made me forget about my loneliness and heartbreak from after me and my partner split up but now that it doesnt help with that anymore im only just starting to really feel the emotions i shouldve healed from by now, instead i had been masking them with weed. i know i need to cut down on it or cut it out completely but its so hard once smoking up becomes a daily thing

I overthink way too much while sober. For some reason I decided to smoke weed solo after taking a year long break and it spiralled me into extreme paranoia. Man that crap made me question everything about life. Weed aint for me.
Used to like it, but now every time I try it I think about how I should be doing something more protective besides smoking.

Only some of y’all know real paranoia when u high asf in the hood and the cops be lurking and u smoking big joints
Trust me
Weed is really about being relaxed with yourself and whatever you have to do. Thats why you see a lot of successful people that are just rich and reformed and they smoke weed 24/7 and have the best life. People who cant let themselves get loose will get fucked with weed. But people who connect with it and like the feeling will literally smoke until they fall asleep. Theres really no limit for that
id have more confidence taking lsd on a random day if I could than smoking a blunt in the same circumstance. its bogus, I used to love weed.
Lsd is my worse nightmare but I smoke pot a lot and love it so this is interesting
The problem for me with weed is it makes me extremely anti social. i prefer to smoke alone and it really trips me out sometimes. I havent had a panic attack but i have experienced my heart racing like a F1 car after weed. it makes me extremely self conscious and i feel like my worls could come down crashing at any moment. I am quitting weed as of 2021 after 7 years of continious use...
That's why a bowl a night gets tje trick done
I cant smoke with people either they are just to much for me i just need to lay in bed eat sum and watch movies everytime i smoke with friends i always go mute and zone out
@@lukesanchez1024 Once anxiety hits you. You can't keep up. I have relapsed many times but I am trying again and again.in 2021 I smoked for 6 months and quit for 6 months...Clean 2 months in 2022. Hope to keep this way. Life is better off weed..
It takes practice but you can shrug off weed paranoia. Once you do it and and successfully fight through it, you literally feel relief wash over you.
You just got to keep your head.
What about racing and pounding heart even tough you feel calm?
illuca breathe in slow and count to 4, hold your breath for 4 seconds, and breath out for 4 seconds and repeat. It’s a calm breathing technique and it tricks your heart into slowing down.
Your body thinks “if I’m breathing calmly, I must be calm”
And try to change your focus, if you’re high you’re easily distracted. Focus on something stupid like tracing the lines of your hands or something until the paranoia fades away
Facts! Confidence, Faith, and Intention
GW M Take a tolerance break for 2 weeks-4 weeks and try again. It came back for me.
This may work for some, but for others it’s simply the only option to just not smoke. Weed can 200% not be for someone and can never ever work for them, as we are all human and every single mind on this planet is different. Some people don’t know them selves well enough to fight off paranoia, they are simply lost in there own mind as to why they feel and think this way and then it just gets overwhelming to the point you make it worse and become more and more anxious as a person. Personally, I am a very friendly social person but as soon as I have some weed I turn quiet and don’t want to talk to anyone, and often get weirded out by my own thoughts thinking things like “who even am I” or “why am I talking with myself”, so for some friendly advice for people that are reading, sometimes the best option is too just not smoke it at all, or if you really enjoy the body element too it where it chills you out but just don’t like how it messes with your head and changes ur perception on things, look into CBD. It relaxes ur body and makes ur body feel stoned where as has literally no affects at all on ur psychic state of mind and you get a sense of feeling free
Love ya Joe love ya Jamie and love the show but this title has gotta go. They barely even touched on paranoia.
About two years ago I was really into weed but one day, I was at my friend’s home and right after smoking I’ve eaten too much and I’ve started puking all the night and I collapsed. From that moment every time I Smoke with someone I feel paranoid and a sense of nausea and it’s just like a panic attack. Can someone help me? It happens even when I’m not high and I’m with some friends at restaurants and it makes me feel weak in confront to others
Maybe it's allergies, look at your skin and see if it turns red.
called emetophobia, you got the fear of puking dude. been living with it forever, fucking sucks.
Look up cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome and see if it matches your symptoms if you’re a daily smoker, I got that shit took a break and the nausea is non existent now
Oddly enough smelling pepper corn can relieve your weed anxiety. It worked for me
I got my first dab pen and was hittin that shit like a vape. Learned my lesson
Yeah I would trip bc two hits do me in
There’s some sativas that make your head clear like a pool with the mirror effects easy to focus , the other ones makes you hazy ,can get lost in the sauce of whatever you’re doing it’s the ultimate version of daydreaming and I love it
I used to be in love with getting higher. I’ve been smoking (2 blunts daily being a minimum) for about a year now and it’s nothing like it was when I first started. I used to praise weed because of how it made me feel, the people I’ve met through it, how cheap it is in my area, etc. I still smoke daily but I don’t enjoy it as much anymore because I’m constantly paranoid. I’m always thinking about unrealistic things that don’t matter like if I’m talking weird or if I’m looking at one of my friends weird. It used to really help me with anxiety because it made me not give a fuck, made me feel like my own god honestly, and that there’s nothing to worry about. Now I’m constantly paranoid and anxious as if the only thing it’s doing is making me retarded, it doesn’t calm me anymore. I’ve also noticed changes with my mental state and capacity. I can barely remember what I did a couple days ago or even yesterday sometimes, it takes me a minute to process simple things, it’s made it harder to be social because I’m constantly in a daze and caught up in my head (all of this while even being sober). I’ve been thinking about taking a break but I love weed and always will. It’ll be hard to stop, I don’t know if it’s even the weed causing this or if I’m literally losing my mind.
Hopefully someone who’s gone through the same thing can help.
Psycholigy quit smoking honestly trust me you’ll feel much better for it this is very common weed grabs you without you realising it and before you know it your doing it everyday and it then becomes more of a chore than a pleasure as though you feel like you need it it’s just as bad as other drugs honestly but I think it’s worse people are so for it like yeah it’s great when it really isn’t I’d quit now before your relying on it like bare people ik that need it constantly
I can relate. Just take a month break. 2 weeks if that’s too difficult and it’ll be like before.
Tolerance break my guy. Even a week off will make you feel better, and when you go back into it it'll be just like it was. JoRo does the Sober October thing, maybe you should too
Aye man I went through that shit I know this is old but I’m tryna share my experience I went through the same tho and I quit for a while and I just smoked last night and I was hallucinating and shit but weed does fuck with certain people and it’s not for everyone so if you feel like it’s fucking with u more negative than positive then u should probably quit maybe pick it up every once and a while to just have a good time but
Sounds like psychosis
I smoked everyday for 4 years & 1 day I smoked n it was never the same. Severe anxiety & panic attacks so I haven’t smoked since.
The only Time I ever got paranoid from weed and hash was when I smoked 5 or 6 joints in a row when I went camping a few years ago and I kept thinking someone was outside me and my girlfriends tent then every time I peeked my head out I kept thinking I saw shadows and figures
Uno your high asf when u think your heart has stopped beating for a sec
I personally hate the feeling of weed, my mind goes insane thinking of stupid shit and I can’t shut it off. I get super awkward around people. God forbid I go somewhere in public. Even if it didn’t bother me physiologically, I can’t stand the physical feelings either. My whole body feels heavy, my throat and mouth get dry, I breath weird. I just feel gross. I wish I could feel the benefits of weed but oh well, don’t worry about shit you can’t control.
Theres alot of teachings in the fears involved with using cannabis. Amazing in general to have something that can show you your fears without being in a deadly situation.
A good advice would be:
Beware of unnatural environments (unattatched people and heavy industry) its will take anyone with a pure sight out. Cause it feels dead and it feel dead because of the asymmetry in the frequencies that you breathe in, listen to and resonate to with your "eye sight". Everything is energy, it can be stored in walls, in the air around us and comes mostly from living creatures.
Imagine what happens to you if you turn up the volume on your loudspeaker while playing shitty music or crazy sounds.
Same thing. Different story.
We must be good inside to leave a good footprint. Sadly there are alot of drains walking around that either from internal og external problems, cannot help but to leave the place ruined for others.
That where being different is awesome. We dont see things alike and often that comes to ones benefit.
I hope this new vision can be usefull with or without mj.
