My impression from your posts is that you are experiencing severe recurrent "obsessive" thoughts with few or no anxiety-relieving "compulsive" behaviors. You had been self-treating the anxiety created by the obsessive thoughts with cannabis.

As you do not have insurance, local or county agencies may exist to assist you to get the help you need. In the US, 211 may serve as your first step.

Are you capable of making phone calls? Do you have transportation?
