What Do You Do When You Get Psychosis From Marijuana?
I smoked weed like three weeks ago. I smoked late at night with my friends and when I got home I tried to go to sleep and my mind started to go haywire and it was painful. The next morning I woke up and still had it though not so severe as before but still really bad. I still have it through these whole three weeks and I’m not sure how to handle it or if it’s permanent or temporary or if I will have to go on medication. I would just like to hear any similar experiences with marijuana and how you dealt with the problem.



It’s possible, but I tend to agree with The Jerk that it’s anxiety driven. Yes, it can lead to psychosis, and yes, you can get the little twitches if you smoke enough. It happens to a lot of people actually. Some people are just more sensitive than other, but 100% don’t worry, your feelings will go away. This happened to me once when I was 15. It was a good thing. It kept me from smoking pot for years, and yes, I used to have some anxiety issues so I can relate to you. So, just relax for a bit, no need to see a doctor. I suggest though that rather than letting this eat at you, just don’t smoke so much. A hit is plenty. You’ll probably manage it much better, and you won’t be so freaked out, because you’ll see that you’re fine. Just don’t break any laws!

Man you guys are pathetic. Twitching from weed? You guys just cant handle it and its dumb questions like this that make marijuana illegal. People see questions like this, people who never smoked, and they think that marijuana does this to people. So they push for laws to keep it illegal. You just got mental problems dude. Its not pyschosis, its anxiety. You got anxiety from it ONCE, but worried so much about it being permanent, which caused the anxiety to continue which caused you to worry more, which caused it to continue even more. You have anxiety issues, and they are triggered even more from weed since weed makes some people paranoid, and paranoia and anxiety dont mix. Weed isnt a drug, you ever sucked a **** for crack? Now thats a different story all together. You think I wasnt young at one time and didnt try crazy stuff? Man I was alive in the 80s. Believe me dude, I did all kinds of crazy stuff you cant even imagine so dont even go there.

Oh wow that’s weird dude. But It will probably go away. I know I don’t really like smoking weed. It makes me feel so ******* weird. Then I started like twitching and stuff I was so out of it. Next time I do it I’m only gonna do like one hit or something. And then I’d laugh at stuff, but I knew it wasn’t really funny. And it was just kind of annoying. And the things that were funny it was like I was fake laughing at them aww **** I had a crazy trip. Next time I’ll just take one hit or something. Maybe you over did it like I think I did.

Yes, you might want to check with your doctore incase there was some underlying issue you had that was triggered by marijuana. next, you might want to consider joining a 12-step group like NA. best wishes.

It’s really not possible for marijuana to cause psychosis to such a degree. Check with your dealer… your stuff may be laced.
