Just suffered from a psychosis after smoking weed for 4 month every evening. It's mostly gone but I was scared and confused all the time. One of the worst feelings I ever had. I was scared of what I might do and of staying in this state for ever. Thanks for this video. It was very interesting and informative
I would maybe like to discuss my case. I believe it would be a great opportunity for both of us. I have suffered 4 of these psychoses which has lead to prolong paranoia.
This had me gripped from beginning to end, what an intriguing job you have. I live in Leeds and there's a lot of rough areas, I've seen smackheads, crackheads, the lot but spice is on another level. I've seen people have full blown paranoia meltdowns and they were never the same even when the effects subsided.
I like how your head and hand movements sometimes give off tracers and can be blurred. Keeps me on my toes wondering if I’m psychotic or not, haha, jk. Good job man, very knowledgeable in your field and it’s helpful to be informed about what’s going on to you while it’s happening. Helps u feel not so crazy. Thanks and all the best
It's interesting that you suggest the fine line between a bad trip and psychosis. I had a very strong bad trip, lasted about 6 hours, hallucinations in broad daylight and auditory hallucinations. I wassafe enough, sat in a mates car at an outdoor illegal festival. I wonder if the only real difference was that I knew what was happening probably wasn't real or at least how I perceived things wasn't real. I can remember the feeling quite clearly and it's interesting to know that could be similar to what people suffering from pychosis experience.i
I was also in a ward for psychosis but what I realized it’s basically a jail. Nothing like a rehabilitation program. They need more strategic ways to cure mental illness. The food I was getting fed was crap. Microwaveable food with little to no nutritional value like vitamins and minerals that the human brain and body need to function properly.
A friend of mine was assaulted by a young man she was with after he abused amphetamine salts and alcohol. He woke up from a dead sleep and was insane. She couldn’t fight him off. He eventually passed out and collapsed. He had zero memory of it. At first she wasn’t going to report it, but he didn’t seem to grasp how serious it was, (she thought she was going to die), and she reported it to the police. Charges were filed and he spent some time in jail and had to pay restitution. He was considered responsible because he abused the drugs even though he was clearly psychotic and had no memory.
My son had drug induced psychosis due to being spiked with ketamine. It literally happened overnight and was awful, but not violent. He also had undiagnosed bipolar disorder (he was in a manic phase at the time) and mild learning difficulties and ASD. It took a couple of days but he was eventually hospitalised and medicated. We are very close and I was his anchor to reality. It has taken 2 years to really have him back, but it was an awful experience for the whole family. Medication has really helped.
Thanks for the info. Im goin through severe psychosis from long term crack use. Over a decade of drug use from weed, heroin, coke.. and the crack. Its ruining my life. Its been a year, ive been on antiphsycotics but i OD'd from the olanzopine bc im also on meth, vallium.. ect. So combating this is proving so hard and even when im sober theres triggers! Its like my body is reacting to fear but i physically cant see the threat. After a bad episode i know im obviously loosing my mind and its not real but at the time i cant help but truly belive that everyone is against me and plotting against me. I feel so so stupid at time and im a recluse bc of it. No1 can come in and goin out is a mission to me. I just feeli im goin in circles, i sought after over 10 years ago and im still here ... i know i must put my part into it... this is just some other level shit anxiety is an understatement
Two brothers and my sister have experienced this..I was with one brother and my sister during seperate episodes ...frightened for my life but afraid to leave them.
I was given an IV antibiotic while severely ill and hospitalized a couple of years ago. I am in the USA, the name of the medication was levaquin. Apparently, I had a rare reaction to it, which caused psychosis. I started feeling very strange, and the last thing I can recall for a period of seven hours were the flowers coming out of a painting to chase me. I remember being absolutely terrified and thinking "something's wrong, I need to get help" and leaving my bed. The next day the nurses explained that for seven hours I was roaming the halls, hallucinating, having conversations with people who weren't there, while they infused saline in my IV to try to flush out the medication. They were advised not to try to confine me. Quite an experience, I never want to go through that again.
Just to note that I was not using any other substances. No judgement - just for a medical point of view, there were no other drugs involved. I had no idea this could happen from an antibiotic. 😳
Let me say this. I was diagnosed with drug induced psychosis after taking cannabis and experimenting with lsd. I was never the same after. I would get paranoia from smoking weed. I was lazy, had no motivation for life. After 2 years I began working out again then turned to be a daily thing. I started eating better introducing more omega 3 fatty acids, and more vitamin rich foods. Trying my best to get 7-9 hours of sleep. With all those changes I felt great again my focus, mood, my memory was way better. I was reluctant but I started smoking weed again and I was actually able to enjoy it. I would eat almonds and other magnesium rich foods and would feel at ease. Food malnutrition, bad habits, poor sleep, lack of exercise are all the causes of mental illness!! The medication I stopped taking after 3 months because it’s a lie all it does is mask the symptoms but doesn’t help at all!!
'I was reluctant but started smoking weed again' I can understand why you were reluctant, what made you start using cannabis again? No judgement here, I'm a cannabis user myself, both medicinally and a big old dose of recreational use. I'm just curious. Peace ✌️
@@gga474 just wanted to see if the paranoia was still there. Since I felt I was in a better place mentally and I had been working on my physical self. And sure enough I was not feeling paranoia anymore.
@@GoldenRoseRecords I'm glad it worked out ok for you, please don't test this theory with LSD, you may not be lucky enough to come back next time. Unfortunately I've lost 2 people to severe drug induced psychosis, they will never be the same again and will need 24hr care. Good luck to you, hope you continue to be happy and healthy.
I've been hospitalised with it three times it's awful....seeing shadows, demons, shapes, things crawling all over me, mate it was the worst thing I've ever been through, I thought all the Drs was lying to me and it was some kind of conspiracy against me .. mate it was fucking awful...I was injecting two ten pound rocks and a bag of smack 3-5 times a day....my head just fell right off after twelve months of this...then my mate dropped dead on my living room floor, I got kidnapped and smashed up, hands broke, stabbed , just fucked up real bad...
I had drug induced psychosis from prescription drugs! It took a while to work out what caused it and I lowered the drug and the psychosis stopped! But the drug in question still produces the odd hallucination
Just suffered from terrible terrible weed induced phycosis. I am 15 years of age,i was heavy on the carts and bud for about a year. Non stop with it was high 24/7 stoned off any weed i could find around. Eventually it drove me to start getting signs of phycosis but i had no clue why i was feeling these things and what was causing it, because i as a naive 14 year old child just looking to fill a void you would never guess that weed the “safest drug” could every cause anything close to this. What ended up happening was i ended up smoking more and more because when you are in phycosis and addicted to weed the addicted voice in your head says you need more weed and that it is the solution. Until it drove me into a full state of weed induced phycosis and i started researching and figured it out finally. I am 4 days sober from weed and I have never felt more like myself again. Almost reborn i don’t even care about the marijuana withdrawals because of how bad the phycosis was and how relieved it feels to finally be out of that satanic terrible DEVILISH state. I wouldn’t wish this on my WORST Enemies in LIFE. This is a serious problem and it needs to be spread everywhere!!! Save us youth!
You should do a case study of the UA-camr Connor Murphy's weird behavior since he is in psychedelics. Some people are arguing if he is faking it for attention others are saying that since he is using Ayahuasca a potent psychedelic he has experience ego death. It will be great to hear from an expert what they think about it.
Just curious, have you ever ran across a patient who had psychosis from seizures? I have epilepsy and never experienced this but have had friends that have. How often would you say there are misdiagnosed patients who are, say, having hallucinations or some such that they later found out were neurological disorders? I ask because I was put on antipsychotics as a pre teen and they later realized I was having Seizures after having my first seizure in years.
You are totally brilliant....I like you even if you are a bit of a psycho 🤣 you're intelligence and knowledge is something else! Every psychiatrist I've seen has been terrifying....maybe my perspective. Full disclosure ,I'm hoping you do a vid on BPD and CPTSD and the differences and whether you can have both. I'm unsure of my diagnosis and too scared to go back and question his opinion , I agree with the BPD but think I have CPTSD aswell .....or maybe I don't. I'm sorry for asking as I realise I'm basically trying to get free help ( worth a try).....I won't be disappointed if you can't help. I'm thinking you'll probably attract people who need help and it won't be the first time you've been asked.
I’m confused bc what if you experience these types of symptoms w/o dugs. But also if you take drugs you also experience these symtoms. At that point, do you blame the drugs? If someone took the drugs to ‘help’ but it only exacerbated the symptoms, but professionals just look at the drug component , then what ? And why would this happen outside of drug use? How does the brain get so messed up?
I have a family history of mental illness ( unfortunately here country doesn't have a sufficient mental health care, but through my knowledge my uncle suffers from psychosis probably weed- induced). Once I tried weed for the first time and got a massive panic attack now I feel better after 8 months but very worried for my mental health. Could one use of marijuana lead to any mental illness?
My autsitic son was given antipsychotic and he now behaves psycotic and hears voices after eaxh depo he screams and has a temperature... Can antipsychotics cause psychoses
Weed triggers psychosis and makes it worse. So if they are trying to manage their symptoms that way it won't work. But I am trying to see how much incidence there is of induced psychosis, with a low or medium dose psychedelic, with someone not using drugs, prescriptions, pot, or alcohol (because alcohol decreases magnesium and low mag can trigger depression or psychosis from a glutamate storm, frontal cortex has raised glutamate levels on psychs, but its lowered in hte hippocampus where the storms tend to happen)
I don't know if this will help but, strap in. So I'm in my 30ties, never took weed until a year ago, I got secondhand high a lot but that's not the same thing. Anyhu! I ate a weed cookie and at first, yep, cool, had the giggles. But after that I had a low blood sugar attack, I could not move and was afraid to open my eyes. I had chocolate, it helped a tiny bit, maybe, I was going through what felt like mental torture so don't remember. That was fine, if that's where it ended. I was then shouting for an ambulance and my friends got me one. All very dramatic, but, I couldn't physically walk, my arms were dead and I felt like people were injecting me with stuff when they weren't because I was getting pins and needles down my arms, but kinda worse than that. Got to the hospital, I literally started hallucinating my GP was in the emergency room, however the doctor in the emergency room really did look like my GP so I had to keep snapping myself out of that. But then I stopped being able to form sentences, I'd forget what I was saying halfway through a sentence and try get back to making sense but I couldn't and I was aware what I was saying sounded like complete gobbledygook but no matter how much I tried I just couldn't make sense. It was extremely scary, I thought I was going to be in a psych ward for the rest of my life forgetting what I was talking about halfway through every sentence. I woke up the next day and I was okay, back to normal, they checked me over, said I should stay the night just incase but I signed myself out of the hospital and got the hell outta there. The end.
i am dealing with drug induced psychosis right now. Ive had it for like a few weeks to a month. i did acid a few months ago and the psychosis kicked in months afterwards when i smoked a ton of weed for a few weeks straight. im not on any prescriptions or any drugs. i was wondering how long do you think it will last? Is it going to end? i feel like my life has entered hard mode and ive truly been struggling. Im not sure what to do or where to go or what i can do to stop this or even lesson it.
Yikes! This doesn't sound good, Mr Jenkins. I'm afraid it sounds like your drug use might have tipped you into a long-term psychosis. If I were you, I'd see a psychiatrist pronto. They might be able to prescribe me some medications which could help. Good luck! Let me know how you get on.
@mrjenkins im not a doctor by any mwans lol and u should def see a psychiatrist! But I went through something similar last year and I completely recovered, so u can message me if you want (idk how this works on youtube tho lmao)
@@emily4244 I’m honestly not gonna see a psychiatrist. I don’t believe in meds and I don’t wanna spend my money. I’m kind of just learning to handle it on my own.
@@APsychForSoreMinds I’m doing alright. I’ve just been mentally overcoming it really. I just live with it and it sucks to an extent but it’s generally not there if you don’t think about it and if I do then oh well.
@06:58 "so this man stabbed himself in the cheek with a pair of scissors as well as his cousin"......he used his *cousin* to stab himself! Were the scissors alone not sufficient? ....🙄 #AlwaysBeNitpickin' #ImaGetMyCoat 🤦🏻
Mr K, burning sensation can be from nerve and brain damage, like from diabetic neuropathy or carpal tunnel. I assume. Unless it was just his anus burning lol. But cognitive loss explains the psychosis as well.
@@APsychForSoreMinds i have a question man could you help me i have drank before a couple times and then ive smoked once and then ive gotten psychosis i was wondering if i will ever be able to drink again the psychosis only happened after i smoked a large amount of weed
I can't help but feel if you take drugs it's your own damn fault if you develop psychosis and cause problems. Maybe there should be something that 16-year-olds sign in school that says if you take drugs your insurance won't cover your possible treatment costs for the consequences.
Lol. That won't help. It's beaten in everyone's head at some point that drugs are bad. The problem is, Noone thinks it will happen to them. They will be "the exception". So to tell someone "hey, if you do drugs and commit a crime, that's on you!" Won't work. People don't think they're capable of doing these things, however, the effects of the drugs completely cloud the brain. They cannot process their actions, let alone what happens after. A warning label doesn't work.
Why in the title do you call it drug RELATED Psychosis? When it is called Drug INDUCED Psychosis. I think it's important to get the name right. And shouldn't it really be called DRUG and ALCOHOL INDUCED PSYCHOSIS. As alcohol can also cause Psychosis.
When I used to crack cocaine everytime I smoked. Lile every single time I smoked a rock I'd would begin to hear my 3rd floor neighbors talk about me. For example they would always say look at that dude he doing his drugs again look how high he gets look! look! look! ( they were talking amongst each other about me).. I'd hear them whistle at me I'd hear them bang on on something and would literally feel vibrations of the banging sound.. if I went into my closet to smoke I'd hear them walk right outside my window and yell sorta kinda "omg he's smoking drugs in his closet" ! When I would leave to buy drugs I would literally think the cars that turned when I turned were them following me. It's truly is scary to have those episodes. Even tho in my mind I knew it was impossible for someone to know exactly what I was doing at any time of the day/night. But it seemed and felt so freaking real

I would maybe like to discuss my case. I believe it would be a great opportunity for both of us. I have suffered 4 of these psychoses which has lead to prolong paranoia.

It's interesting that you suggest the fine line between a bad trip and psychosis. I had a very strong bad trip, lasted about 6 hours, hallucinations in broad daylight and auditory hallucinations. I wassafe enough, sat in a mates car at an outdoor illegal festival. I wonder if the only real difference was that I knew what was happening probably wasn't real or at least how I perceived things wasn't real.
I can remember the feeling quite clearly and it's interesting to know that could be similar to what people suffering from pychosis experience.i
I was also in a ward for psychosis but what I realized it’s basically a jail. Nothing like a rehabilitation program. They need more strategic ways to cure mental illness. The food I was getting fed was crap. Microwaveable food with little to no nutritional value like vitamins and minerals that the human brain and body need to function properly.

I think it's because I am trigger-happy, Mr Wright
Shut up, Tom.
i am dealing with drug induced psychosis right now. Ive had it for like a few weeks to a month. i did acid a few months ago and the psychosis kicked in months afterwards when i smoked a ton of weed for a few weeks straight. im not on any prescriptions or any drugs. i was wondering how long do you think it will last? Is it going to end? i feel like my life has entered hard mode and ive truly been struggling. Im not sure what to do or where to go or what i can do to stop this or even lesson it.
Yikes! This doesn't sound good, Mr Jenkins.
I'm afraid it sounds like your drug use might have tipped you into a long-term psychosis. If I were you, I'd see a psychiatrist pronto. They might be able to prescribe me some medications which could help.
Good luck! Let me know how you get on.
@mrjenkins im not a doctor by any mwans lol and u should def see a psychiatrist! But I went through something similar last year and I completely recovered, so u can message me if you want (idk how this works on youtube tho lmao)
@@emily4244 I’m honestly not gonna see a psychiatrist. I don’t believe in meds and I don’t wanna spend my money. I’m kind of just learning to handle it on my own.
@@APsychForSoreMinds I’m doing alright. I’ve just been mentally overcoming it really. I just live with it and it sucks to an extent but it’s generally not there if you don’t think about it and if I do then oh well.
@@emily4244 if you would like to message more about it I don’t think we can dm on UA-cam but maybe somewhere else. What would work for you?
I love the accent which región?

@06:58 "so this man stabbed himself in the cheek with a pair of scissors as well as his cousin"......he used his *cousin* to stab himself! Were the scissors alone not sufficient? ....🙄

Does valerian root cause pyschosis
Only if you snort it
@@APsychForSoreMinds what about tea I tried tea
Hey Dr Das. Would like to talk about withdrawl from anti-depressants to you! If you're interested, please let me know! Love your content
That would be interesting to me too. Great work Dr Das.
Have you ever been swayed by the arguments for things that could be classed as delusions?
P.s. self care mister! Yiu deserve a chill! That's an order from a bossy subscriber 😁❤️
Mr K, burning sensation can be from nerve and brain damage, like from diabetic neuropathy or carpal tunnel. I assume. Unless it was just his anus burning lol. But cognitive loss explains the psychosis as well.
Yeah memory loss is also proof of this idea.
Bipolar afaik is associated with brain vein damage as diabetics are at increased risk of it.
Ive seen faces all over things with patters or dots
Weed are you sure🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🔥🤪🔥
Yeah dude. I'm not saying everybody that smokes weed, but just people who are genetically susceptible.
@@APsychForSoreMinds i have a question man could you help me i have drank before a couple times and then ive smoked once and then ive gotten psychosis i was wondering if i will ever be able to drink again the psychosis only happened after i smoked a large amount of weed
Man you're blazed af here haha
You can't prove anything Mr H!
Intro urself n get on with ur story instead of intro ing urself again... ur storys are interesting but ur intros are epic.
I can't help but feel if you take drugs it's your own damn fault if you develop psychosis and cause problems. Maybe there should be something that 16-year-olds sign in school that says if you take drugs your insurance won't cover your possible treatment costs for the consequences.
Lol. That won't help. It's beaten in everyone's head at some point that drugs are bad.
The problem is, Noone thinks it will happen to them. They will be "the exception".
So to tell someone "hey, if you do drugs and commit a crime, that's on you!"
Won't work. People don't think they're capable of doing these things, however, the effects of the drugs completely cloud the brain. They cannot process their actions, let alone what happens after.
A warning label doesn't work.
I hate drug addicts I just feel zero sympathy for them
I like my mattress
You haven’t
Experienced it yourself so you know fuck all mate
Mediocre music...😆🤣🤣
"Spiked apparently" why do we need the apparently there...
I thought the sentence just sounded a bit too short. It needed three more syllables.
Why in the title do you call it drug RELATED Psychosis? When it is called Drug INDUCED Psychosis. I think it's important to get the name right.
And shouldn't it really be called DRUG and ALCOHOL INDUCED PSYCHOSIS. As alcohol can also cause Psychosis.
When I used to crack cocaine everytime I smoked. Lile every single time I smoked a rock I'd would begin to hear my 3rd floor neighbors talk about me. For example they would always say look at that dude he doing his drugs again look how high he gets look! look! look! ( they were talking amongst each other about me).. I'd hear them whistle at me I'd hear them bang on on something and would literally feel vibrations of the banging sound.. if I went into my closet to smoke I'd hear them walk right outside my window and yell sorta kinda "omg he's smoking drugs in his closet" ! When I would leave to buy drugs I would literally think the cars that turned when I turned were them following me. It's truly is scary to have those episodes. Even tho in my mind I knew it was impossible for someone to know exactly what I was doing at any time of the day/night. But it seemed and felt so freaking real
Does it go away ? I’ve been telling my neighbor there ppl in my shower hole n coming through the tv aerial 😂😂🥲
Well 1st of all dont see it as a joke!
