so heres the deal, ive been smoking weed very unfrequently (like sometimes once every two months or more) for the past like one or two years. it was never a habit, i just happen to do whenever i felt like it.
but this particular last month, i started smoking a lot more - every weekend for the last four weekends, to be precise. i know its still not much (actually very little compared to friends i know...), but still... weed is very very strong for me, i always get mad visuals, total confusion, touching gets really crazy, and i am not able to even maintain a conversation or function... i guess i could say i trip on it maybe? i definitely dont get just chill and relaxed
so heres the thing, yesterday at a party i got really really high again, nothing out of ordinary for the last few weeks, but then today i woke up, and still felt slightly high. didnt really care. but then, at night, i was having dinner with my friends, and suddenly, i started to feel like i was high. that particular weed high. i wasnt getting any visuals or weird touching, but my vision was... weed-vision. i swear. and i was like what the fuck why am i high? anyway i got a bit worried, came home, lied down on the hammock, closed my eyes trying to sleep... and i start hearing sounds of people running... i know theyre not real but i cant help but not hear them!! if i stay on the silence for long enough i even hear voices of friends of mine talking...
is this HPPD? ive read a bit and these symptoms definitely sound a bit schizophrenic... i am not schizophrenic nor is anyone in my family...
should i worry?
i know for sure i will stop with the weed for some time... should i take an antipsychotic? i have access to risperidone... would it help?
any thoughts and experiences on the matter would be much, much appreciated... the thought that i might become schizophrenic because of little playing with weed makes me really anxious...
thanks
