Thanks. If i could choose thats what i would do. But unfortunately the reality is i just het my.parents to call the cops on me. Then the cops send me to a mental hospital where they inject me with something.and then im debilitated for a year. Thats been my.personal experience. I should move out so i cant get forced on meds lol. Ive been dealing with forced medication since 2015. Aince the first invega thread. I think for of those yesrs have been spent debilitated by meds and 3 years spent off meds and enjoying life.

You certainly had a long and arduous journey. How did it all begin? Were you on a lot of weed?

Yeah back in 2015 i was smoking weed everyday. It was in the summer. Ivstarted hearing things and didnt know what was going on. It felt like ppl were talking about me all the time. I had a friend telling me im hearing voices. I had no idea it was the weed making me hear voices lol. I had a cop ask me if i smoke weed and i told him i smoke weed everyday. He told me its the weed making me hear voices. So i decided to quit. Unfortunately quitting weed didnt make it so i dont hear voices anymore. Once you start i guess it just sticks with you. I then got put on risperidone and started feeling like shit on it. I decided to google the risperidone and a lot of other ppl were describing my symptoms so i realized its the weed doing it. I then got off and got better in around a year. I started hearing voices again but was able to manage with it this time. Was hearing things for 2 years then got put on meds again. Was never off meds for 2 years like i was before. Now it was always shorter periods until i got put on meds again. It sucks that making the mistake of smoking weed everyday in 2015 is still affecting me now 7 years later. I would have never touched weed if i knew you could get psychosis from it. Now im a shell of my former self.

Your story also makes me deeply regret touching weed, thank you for sharing. Did you recover well the first time from risperidone, that is were you back to your old self? Is it the repeated hospitalizations that made you a shell of your former self? I too feel like a shell of my former self after Invega and I’m scared that I’ll have to be like this my whole life.

Yeah i recovered from risperidone and i was enjoying life. When i was on the risperidone i thought id never recover. Ive been on antipsychotics 4 times so far and recovered everytime. But i get psychosis agsin and so i end up in a mental hospital and back on meds.

Hey guys I recovered i used to come on here a lot and question if id ever get better. it was a horrible wait i wanted to end my life. I didn't enjoy anything back then I seriously had Ahedonia. Like working out i didn't feel the endorphins. weed gave me no joy. movies sucked. Being social was boring. You could give me 1000 dollars i wouldn't enjoy buying anything. I hated that time of my life.

I recovered i quit cold turkey and got rebound psychosis after recovering from all this it was a lot to recover. The psychosis i went into was horrible and it took a lot to recover from sure it wasn't as bed ridden suicidal and emotionless fog but it was dangerous. I still stopped taking meds all together and i've felt normal for a while now 100000x better then after the shots. I never felt that way on any other psych med till i took a long acting shot. Completely robs you from life and any enjoyment

How many shots did you have after the 2 loading doses? How long did it take you to recover?

MSM, Magnesium L-Tryptophan, mushroom (Hericium Erinaceus), Vitamine A-Z pills and CBD oil. -> (ADDED ON 5 MAY: I no longer use CBD oil since yesterday, I learned that it can interfere with the liver enzymes that are responsible for breaking down medicine).

! Don't use CBD oil.

You are talking about rick Simpson oils, CBD oil has no psychoactive properties, people on this form should look into RSO, it's used to treat cancer and kill cancer cells especially in the brain, only side effect is RSO makes you sleep a lot. Everytime I smoked weed in recovery I always had improvements the next month after, but I understand a lot of people on this forum cant feel substances.

I've seen some old heads on grasscity forum talk about have pyschosis smoking when they were young and they had to wait years before they could start smoking again, so I mean if you are still interested years from now, I would give it a shot

No i think its better to stay away from weed cause it just makes my psychosis worse. I have never really had psychosis go away. The longest i havnt had psychosis was 6 months. Then i did some drinking and the psychosis came back full force. Couldnt sleep cause i was hearing things etc. Bigsmoke did you get put on antipsychotics cause you were experiencing psychosis?

My psychosis just happened I think that it was due to stress. Then my family did the rest of the disaster and after 6 shots because of a family who adores psychiatry I consider death everyday.

Yes, but I wasn't hearing voices or hallucinating, I was just delusional, I was mixing powdered meth with weed smoking blunts like that, I've been off invega coming up 2 years now and have had no problems, the doctor told me I had a meth induced pyschosis, so I can never use meth again, but I smoke weed all the time and I'm just fine, I get a little paranoid, but it depends on the strain.

Oh your lucky that you recovered and your symptoms havnt returned. Maybe you should stay away from weed cause it msy cause you to get delusional again. If i were you i would do anything to not risk getting put on antipsychotics again. Antipsychotics are the worse lol.

I mean I understand that, but it's a risk I'm willing to take, I love growing weed, I love smoking, I love being I'n the community and going to events, I never had no problems until I started using other substances, and If do go to the hospital again I'll never get another injection and I'll just tell them to put me on seroquel until my symptoms go away, then I'll have a for sure answer. But I appreciate you looking out for me friend.

How often do you smoke marijuana. Do you smoke everyday? Smoking everyday is what gave me my psychosis

Well I give you a brief history of my smoking, I smoked 2 years everyday all day no problem, did meth and weed for a month went into psychosis, now I smoke a blunt in the morning, blunt in the noon and a blunt at night, I don’t smoke bongs anymore either. So overall I smoke everyday just not as much as before the psychosis, because I was smoking a blunt or bowl every hour, I had a very high tolerance.
 
Bigsmoke420 said:
I also want to note that I waited almost 2 years before I started smoking daily again to let my brain recover

Wow thats a lot. Yeah i was splitting a blunt with a buddy for like 4 months straight everyday. Then i got psychosis and i get put on meds and it goes away. Then i recover from the meds and psychosis also comes back. It sucks it has to be pernament. I dont understand why the brain cant recover from it. Its like a door that once you open it cant be closed.

Are you diagnosed with schizophrenia or psychosis if you don’t mind me asking? It sounds like schizophrenia which cannabis and drugs can cause that, because my first doctor the one who gave me invega told me I had schizophrenia and I needed to be on invega for the rest of life, then I had 2 other opinions from other doctors and they both said I had psychosis from meth then they put me on 2mg risperdone, I cold turkey medication and have no symptoms for almost 2 years now. Also I have another question what age did this happen to you? I a lot of people I’ve talked to on grass city forum we’re in their early 20s and teens but they were able to recover and smoke again, but some were not and can’t ever again.
