Even me, weed was a tricky one.. I smoked it so many times and each time = Panic attack (This happened 30+ times. This was in 2016-2017). I stopped trying for a while and then used CBD, smoked really really small amounts.. and eased myself into it.

I remember in 2019-2020, sitting outside at night (In the AM's), smoking Sativa (The stimulating strain), thinking all sorts of thoughts and ideas, listening to philosophical podcasts... Tears pouring down my face, from my eyes like crazy, beautiful.

I tried smoking with friends in 2018 (After the whole research chemical thing).. and I still got peer pressured (I always peer pressured MYSELF, "Can I have a line? ^-;" etc..) and got a panic attack each time..

As long as you are in a good environment, with good, caring people..

Just be safe, research and take in all information as you can - Then make the decision. It's always 100% okay to NOT smoke it.. You're not missing out. It's good to experiment but sometimes it can go wrong - Especially with schizophrenia and anxiety. If you do, start small (One small toke).

Fun, exploring the mind, thinking of new solutions to problems, euphoria, escape, sharing experiences of life - Have an intention =] Many reasons as to why people do anything.. anything at all.. And we all die one daaay. Remember.

Weed is a depressant, stimulant, hallucinogen, dissociative and pain killer all in one - It doesn't really interact with meds (But I'd talk with a medical professional first just in case). Peace, love. Bring potato chips or pizza.
