Last night was the worst where I had taken some cannabis oil to help with pain and then watched A movie that would likely be considered RA material for screen memories during abuse. I had several mini blackouts in a row and could not determine what was real and what was not. I was afraid to tell any of this to the emergency crew last night that came when I fell out of my doorway screaming for help. I thought I was having a stroke… Or perhaps a psychotic break. It turned out that I simply had too much of the cannabis oil and that along with the triggers from the movie set everything off. It's so frustrating to not have anyone I can talk to about these things. My therapist never believed them to begin with I think and now we have terminated.
And I got to the point where I didn't feel I could trust her anyway to tell her things without putting me inpatient. And I can't talk about this with friends because it triggers them and I don't have a provider.

My son was recently diagnosed Bi polar. He smoked some pot and had a psychotic episode. (his gf thought pot would be fun) and ended up in the hospital. He was in a psychotic state for two weeks. Than with the help of medication he was back. I googled bp and pot, and it turns out that the THC in pot can cause people with certain mental conditions, to have a psychotic break. He is back to how he has always been. It took two months in total and meds. He is still recovering from injuries he suffered while he was in a psychotic state of mind. Just an FYI, learned by my son the hard way.
