Has anyone experienced an almost psychosis?

My situation is: About 30 minutes after smoking 5-6 puffs of a joint i felt a psychotic episode coming on, so i splashed water on my face and tried to ground myself in reality. i managed not to have an episode, but ever since then i have felt different.. almost like i could break into an episode at any moment. I luckily haven't broken out, and have been able to function fine, but the feeling is always there and it is starting to concern me a lot..

This all start about 8 days ago. Im curious to see if anyone has experienced anything like this.

I can't remember if you have posted on this before?

It had not happened to me but this is like the fourth time that someone has posted that weed has triggered psychosis or almost has. I suspect this is in people who are already predisposed to psychosis. I think the effect you describe will go away but probably best to stay away from weed.
