So first, sorry for posting another thread but in the anxiety section i posted about my experience last year, and it brought up some bad feelings. I dont think the car accident is the only thing ive gotten ptsd from. July 31st 2011 i experimented with psychadelic mushrooms and it caused my first ever seizure. Ive had another since, just one thankfully and t and pdoc thinks it was a psuedoseizure. Well the problem, im still terrified. I used to be so adventerous loved being outside more than anything and was a good mom. Playing games, dancing, having fun, enjoying life. Then that happens and the emotion i feel the most is fear. Although i swore off drugs, even stopped smoking marijuanna, the fear wont leave. Its bad enough i already had gen. Anx. Disordet, butDID as well and possibly schizophrenia, i was stupid to do it. I had finally gotten into a good place in life and felt i was ready. Stupid stupid stupid but that doesnt change the past.
I will ask t what he thinks but i honestly believe the psychadelic night caused worse ptsd than the accident. I still cant shake that feeling from the seizure. I still cant get over the fear. I keep getting small reminders physically that wont let the fear subside. Every time my ears ring i panic, when i get dizzy i panic, so much fear.
Is it possible to get ptsd from psychadelics, has anyone gone through this and if so how do you get over it? I want my old life back
