So sometimes when i smoke i feel like everyone is out to get me.. or more like everyone and everything around me is just some sort of staged and acted show to bust me for all the "bad" things i do. I really hate it when i get those kind of highs cause no matter how hard i try to convince myself its just the weed, i still feel like im jim carrey in The Truman Show or something haha im sure some of you have had similar experieces if you have share and why do u think this happens/ways to prevent it
I've never experienced it... I've always kinda wanted to tho, because everyone says that, but it's never happened to me.
do you have difficulty with trusting people when you're sober? emotionally, psychologically, etc..? maybe it's just manifesting and becoming more intense when you smoke. try saying some affirmations to yourself before you get high to remind you that you're in a safe place with safe people. maybe it will help eace:
I get that every time I smoke for about 5 minutes. Then I realize that I'm high and I don't give a shit.
Perhaps weed isn't for you, then. Maybe you should take a break for maybe 3 months then see how you go. They way weed has affected me over the years has changed a little bit. I used to get a bit paranoid, and got bad cotton mouth, and never got the munchies. Now I get the munchies and I don't ever get paranoia or cotton mouth.
im not a big weed smoker to begin with though, and sometimes my high is so good that its worth it to have the bad times but sometimes the bad times are so bad that i end up taking it to extremes where i bug out maybe its just the amount im having? and yeah, i suppose i do have trouble trusting people.. maybe i should look into that lol
I sometimes get the same feeling too, as if I'm in my own little world and everybody is just watching me. It's always nice though if you got a friend with you. I remember one time i went to CiCi's kind of late one night to eat of course. I felt as though everybody was watching me because I filling up my plate to the top and my eyes were bloodshot like always, but I ended up eating while paranoid..good stuff.
I used to get kinda weird highs sometimes. Not really paranoid... but I'd start thinking about the worst things in my life/myself and get this real intense reaction from it. That's kinda why I love weed though. When I smoke up a lot of the time I realize 'whats wrong' with the way I'm living. ya know? Or I realize for example "I've really been a dick to so and so lately, they don't deserve that" A few times it went a little too intense and I thought "Holy shit I'm bi-polar" and I start reading too much into patterns I notice in my life. But all and all it's a positive. And the majority of the time I just get cool, relaxed and peaceful highs. And this is my 100th post. Yeeeeaaaah bitches! Do I get a prize?
Paranoia is characterized by systematized delusions and projection of personal conflicts. The paranoia is always there, smoking pot does not cause the paranoia, but it does lead to increased or novel sensitivity, introspection. You can slow down or remove the panic sensation simply by concentrating on the breath and extending the exhale. This is a physiological remedy and has nothing to do with what you are thinking and everything to do with physical practice. Do the practice and the anxiety will dissipate.
