The problem is, potentially, that insight can be lost in a moment and then be gone for hours or days or weeks. Once you have lost insight, you are formally and gravely in danger. And other people may also be in danger, depending on particulars.

So, to me, this is actually a medical and psychiatric emergency. Noone sends you a text before insight is lost, warning you. It just happens--poof!!!

I recognized that I am in the minority in America on this, but I personally believe weed to be exceptionally dangerous potentially for people with our illness. Would I like to feel better than I do sometimes? Hell, yes. But I would never resort to that or any other non-prescribed med. And I have a lengthy addiction history. Anyhoo, weed clearly has psychosis-inducing properties. Just my 2 cents on that.

Be very careful! I went from hypo to manic and floridly psychotic over about a week in 2007, crashed my car, injured someone, and was prosecuted by furious DA's, who did their level best to send me to the penitentiary for 10 years. Totally overcharged me. Zero prior record, not even a traffic stop. Complete morons with respect to any type of insight about what bipolar psychosis is all about. But none of that matters if they are pissed. The law and statutes are completely irrelevant. I sure don't want you to ever have to go through the hell I did. Please be careful.
