Take my wife, not only can she smoke early bud without a single drop of amber, she can also smoke it green. Green is what I call bud that only dried to where it will burn. My wife actually prefers the amber-less bud. And we both enjoy the taste of the fresh green bud.
Unfortunately it is hard for me to enjoy the high produce by smoking green bud because it will have me running around screaming, or hiding in the closet while begging God for my salvation. Then after that, I usually start giving away all my worldly possessions. All the while my wife will be looking at me like what the… did he smoke.
At first I thought the different reactions between me and her was due to her tolerance. However after doing some testing, in other words, giving out sample to people of different tolerances and recreational drug backgrounds, I have learned that tolerance is not the only reason that some people have adverse psychological events when using marijuana.
When I give out early samples to people who are heavy smokers, most will react in the same manner as I do. Mind you that most of the people involved in my testing, are also related to me.
However when samples are given to people who are unrelated, the bud usually do not bother them, just as it doesn’t bother my wife.
Let me explain further. The giving away of my things started when I was 17, which is about the same time schizophrenia is known to start in adults. I call that time if my life a midlife crises, as I was always worried and huge fear of dying. Let it also be know that I wasn’t smoking marijuana or cigarettes, or any other drug, and neither was I drinking during that time. Therefore I can say that it wasn’t the marijuana that initially triggered these type of psychological events in my life.
Unfortunately, I have to say that several times marijuana has induced these same type or adverse psychological occurrences multiple times since i started using it. Which usually occur after smoking green, amber-less bud.
Which is the reason why I’m more inclined to take my bud around 10% amber. The 10% amber drastically reduces the possibility of me having negative psychological effects which I usually refer to as “psychosis”.
That’s not to say that marijuana induced psychosis no longer happens to me, however it is usually is as severe as it was when first experience it.
By severe, I mean going several days in a transcendental state. Perception and reactions are different than normal. Some would call this experience freaking out, which goes much further than the normal marijuana induced paranoia. I relate the event to defragmenting a hard drive. Or let’s say, being in recovery mover as the brain still function, but at a reduced capacity. In my opinion it is the brain’s way of giving itself a much need break.
I find marijuana to be the proper treatment for these condition which are more commonly referred to as stress. The frequent exposure to marijuana induced psychosis, has taught me how to reliably deal with socially induced traumatic stress. Some call it anxiety, or panic attacks, or schizophrenia, however I find to be a condition closely related to post traumatic stress. Which simply means, we are tired and cannot take it any more. Therefore the brain decides to take a break as it puts the sufferers on a type of preprogrammed auto pilot.
What marijuana does, is offer the brain a much needed break, before it decides to take one for itself. Frequent or even occasional use can prevent stress related psychological event from becoming severe. Which is the reason marijuana use keeps increasing in every demographic.
This is something that I have studied since high school when I first learned that my family suffers from the condition. For me, this is not guesswork because i live it everyday.
Marijuana has enabled me to push past the anxiety, panic and stress, and live a much happier life. It is the best natural antidepressant once a person learns to use it to their advantage. This is just one of the reasons that I say that I’m a marijuana advocate. I share my experiences as I have help a lot of people learn to overcome tragic and traumatic events in their life. Learning to deal with the effects of marijuana induced psychosis didn’t come easy. The efforts that it take to do so, will be well worth the benefits. Your friend and family will love you again. As you will also learn to love them and yourself.
I know that everyone’s experiences are different, as an advocate, I aways take the time to put in a good word for my girl. Cannabis does so much for us as humans, but it seems that she is always taking one for team. This is how I thank her for all she has done for me. This is how I give back.
