Psychosis Brain Damage

Postby andrewlang16 » Sat Sep 10, 2011 5:06 am

I have had psychosis a couple times after using cannabis and most recently after having a bit of alcohol. Each time I have felt somewhat impaired afterwards but I was wondering how much permanent damage is done because I have had some difficulty with reading at times.

And I just thought I would point out that I had the psychosis each time after using those substances not while I was on them if that makes any difference.

Andrew honey, please dont smoke pot and drink alcohol. You've already identified that this is not working for you, and you have adverse side effects, so I think maybe you should just mark these off your list.

Otherwise, you're gonna end up hospitalized over it, and a lil weed and beer is not worth it. If you're gonna go in lockdown, at least have it be for a different or worse reason.

Psychosis is REALLY difficult. I've been there. And I know what caused it for me, and I avoid those things like the PLAGUE. My best advice is for you to do the same :0).

Have to take care of yourself, sweetheart.
