How I smoked marijuana and got temporary psychosis - General

Same. High babies, lolz.

hungry enough to suck their mama dry.

:smug: <--- He smoked weed, he's cool

[QUOTE=snuwoods;18100775]Finally - now what do you say pro-legalizers?[/QUOTE] God bless anecdotes and sample sizes of 1.

You should stop smoking weed, you're in college and that's not the time to mess up and ruin your life.

You should do what is called light therapy. They are these lights that simulate the wavelengths of the sun. Since your S.A.D. is most likely caused by the lack of sun, this would be good for you. :) Here is what it looks like: [img]http://gadgets.boingboing.net/2008/11/05/goLITE.jpg[/img] And here is a link: [url]http://www.consumer.philips.com/c/light-therapy/11625/cat/us/?tab=Boost%20energy&s_kwcid=TC|9836|winter%20blues%20light||S||3871289124[/url] Enter Philips' latest GoLite device, a miniaturized entry in its range of lamps aimed at seasonal mood problems. Apart from decent industrial design, Philips pitches "Bluewave technology" as its therapeutic special sauce, claiming results can be felt "within a few days with as little 15 to 20 minutes of use per day."

[QUOTE=Dummkopf;18111557]You should stop ruinning your life with reality smoke more! No, seriously drugs are bad.[/QUOTE] Smoking weed is fine by be, but if you must be responsible with it. You need to know when to say no, because that little high is not worth getting kicked out of school and working as a janitor for the rest of your life.

[QUOTE=Ragy;18111522]You should stop smoking weed, you're in college and that's not the time to mess up and ruin your life.[/QUOTE] cos weed totally ruins your life

[QUOTE=DaveP;18111123] smoke smart, kids[/QUOTE] Or just don't.

[QUOTE=scout-on-a-train;18111653]cos weed totally ruins your life[/QUOTE] It will if you're an idiot with it.

[QUOTE=ijyt;18111655]Or just don't.[/QUOTE] Yeah man, vaporize it.

[QUOTE=ijyt;18111655]Or just don't.[/QUOTE] I believe that as long as someone is over the age of 18 (such that one can assume they will take a slightly more informed decision) and knows the risks and rewards associated with drug use that they can weigh that up for themselves and decide what they want to take and/or smoke. While I'm not saying everyone should go out and do heroin if they want to, I think that there needs to be a re-evaluation on the scheduling of drugs based on their level of harm, rather than political pandering

Weed owns. If you get 'psychosis' from it you're a pussy.

He had a mental problem you retard.

Not surprisingly, JoeSkylynx has left the thread I WONDER WHY

Why he had to leave, we loved him so much!

[QUOTE=PieHard92;18100784]You consider 2 bowls a lot? :lol: Also, blaming weed is a fallacy, you over reacted, learn to chill out man, smoke more.[/QUOTE] How is that a fallacy? It caused the problem, and he has a legitimate reason to blame weed. [editline]04:09PM[/editline] [QUOTE=HMPoweredMan;18111525]You should do what is called light therapy.

Can't remember. Anyway, My friend uses one of these and he's been doing a lot better, so you might want to consider this.

I haven't used it as much as I should because they're so damn inconvenient for me (i.e you have to be within a foot or two away, no further).

It seems to me that this was caused by eating a moldy doughnut, and the weed just made you really anxious about it.

well written and interresting to read. thx :)

[QUOTE=Master117;18112612]I have one of those. I haven't used it as much as I should because they're so damn inconvenient for me (i.e you have to be within a foot or two away, no further).[/QUOTE] Well you would think if your S.A.D. was really bad, you would find a way to make it convenient, right? If it's crippling you would want to deal with it, I would think. Note: I'm not downsizing your disorder, I've had physical health issues and they get so damn annoying that eventually I just do what it takes to treat them.

I studied S.A.D in psychology for awhile. I cannot see how cannabis would 'interact' with S.A.D. It's a pretty mild condition most of the time, and pretty much everyone suffers from it in one form or another. It's considered some-what natural. You probably just had a bad trip, then linked whatever depression you had either caused by your shitty life, or a 'bad' case of S.A.D with your cannabis use. Couple that with a placebo effect. Psychosis isn't a biological disorder remember, it's psychological. Which means there is no known cause, and no known cure. Some would argue it doesn't exist.

This causes depression-like symptoms, and is in fact a form of depression. One of the most common forms actually. Many people suffer from it and have no idea. I was also diagnosed with clinical depression as well.

Are you SAD?

smoke weed everyday

[QUOTE=Malumbre;18107543][release]Quote from OP: As for my opinion on legalization, I still say yes. The reason being is that any substance, legal or not legal could have done this to me. Excessive drinking could have done it too, or an OD on OTC meds (neither of which I would ever do anyway).[/release] Doughnuts cause all kinds of problems, for example, escalated domestic hostility and violence, Fetal Doughnut Syndrome, autodoughtnut collisions, even death due to damaged doughnut gland or instantly due to Overdoughnuts. It is legal. What do you say to this? It is a known fact that doughts can trigger or increase mental conditions such as psychosis, depression, etc., and the OP knew he was fucked up beforehand, therefore it's not surprising and it's his fault. Doughnuts don't affect everyone like this, including myself, so I am still pro-legalisation.[/QUOTE] This man certainly has a point.

[QUOTE=Appox;18112907]I don't really believe there is such a thing as 'clinical depression'. So I wouldn't even take notice of that diagnosis.[/QUOTE] Yes, your one school year of AP Psychology class taught you more than a med student who trains for about 6 years for their Ph.D, yet alone the years of research saying there is a "such thing as 'clinical depression.'"
