Does Weed Cause Paranoia Even After The User Has Stopped Taking It

Does weed make u paranoid?

No, but depending on how much he used to smoke there is some rebalancing of emotions which can come out. I only just stopped about a month ago and after smoking every day for 17 years there was definitely some rebalancing. The weed made my problems seem insignificant but the duration that I smoked it for meant that my bodies natural chemical balance evened out and so it wasn't affecting me emotionally that badly. I still got upset or happy but everything was slightly muted. My happy times weren't that happy, my sad times weren't that sad. After I stopped my body (presumeably, I am no doc after all) still produced a lot of whatever it is that makes you happy or sad as if it were compensating for the amount of weed that I used to smoke. This made me go through a lot of ups and downs. It balances itself out again after a while. For me it was a matter of a few weeks bear in mind I was a massively heavy smoker, but everyone is different. I know people are going to say that weed is fine and doesn't affect anyone badly in any way whatsoever (smokers get militant about it), but I am not saying it was bad. I loved it, and will probably smoke it again later on in life but if you ingest anything in the quantity that I smoked it then it will affect you.

How do I stop being paranoid after smoking weed?

I have smoked weed once and i got really paranoid like my mom is gonna find out. How do I stop being like that? Also don't try to get me to stop im gonna keep doing it.

Does too much weed make you paranoid?

Yes weed does definitly make you paranoid. It destroys your memory, confidence ambition etc etc.

Please, let me explain. I am a 30 yo bloke. I had my first smoke @ 15 and smoked as much as I could. When I hit uni @ 18 I went everyday. I got into E and stuff went a bit off the rails and bummed out. Did a year out working crap jobs and went back graduated and did posgrad training and got a full time proffessional job. I still smoked every day, but I was on the edge battling capability proceedures etc. I WAS LONLEY PARANOID DEPRESSED, THOUGHT EVERYONE SPOKE ABOUT ME BEHIND MY BACK. I was also forever loosing things and making mistakes. At 29 I gave up. I turned 30 having detoxed. My head is still finding a happy medium. I am learning to live at 30 how I should have learned to live in mid to late teens. I have had very few relationships, none have been fulfilling, just with other drug users. I got into coke in my late 20's that was bad but weed was still my main drug of choice. Weed enabled me to rob myself of the best years of my life. I regret it badly but must now look to the future. I smoked every day after work and lived in squalor and ate crap. I now cook a meal daily, excercise, hoover up, clean my bathroom and can come across as a normal relaxed person. You dont live like that with weed, your life revolves around it. I can now remember things and dont loose things. Life is good. My depression is lifting, slowly but surely. Weed is not cool. Weed is not as bad as coke/heroin, but it causes serious depression in many people. Weed may not destroy your life, but will limit your quality of life to 20% of its potential. And how did I stop I hear you say? I went to Marijuana Anonymous. Without that group I would still smoke to this day. Show this to your mate - she may listen to an ex adict, who knows?

How can I stop being paranoid when I am on cocaine?

Cocaine is stupid dude. You're chasing a feeling that will only diminish the more you chase it. Appreciate life as it is. If you want to get high, just stick with THC. But if you feel compelled to do coke, MODERATE. Moderation is key in all aspects of life. Even too much water can kill you. Some people are more inclined to experience adverse or undesirable effects than others. For some people, even the slightest amount can be detrimental, while others may have a certain threshold before experiencing the same or similar adverse effects. As a person who has used lots of different illicits in my day, including the aforementioned, I personally feel the only way I have been able to maintain is that I have an “If I'm going to be stupid, I'm going to be smart about it” approach to drugs. I'm not always trying to push the limit and get as high as I can. I do just enough to feel it and have a good time, and appreciate a moderate, tasteful high, if that makes sense. And don't underestimate the power of sleep. It's wonders for the brain and body. Sleep deprivation is very hard on your body, even if it doesn't seem that way. Also, do not let your body temperature get too high. Neurotoxicity (killing brain cells) primarily occurs when your brain experiences temperatures above the norm. Stay cool, stay hydrated, and get your sleep. And again always remember moderation. You can't stay high. If you go up you have to come down before you can go back up, otherwise up becomes your new normal and you can't go up anymore.

Does smoking weed cause psychosis?

Yes. In 1968 I was smoking a very strong form of cannabis called hashish. I smoked every day for a month. The prior year I experimented with different psychedelics: LSD, psilocybin, mescaline, DMT.Once, after smoking, I started having flashbacks to the psychedelic experiences. I thought that someone was putting drugs in my food. Then I experienced someone following me and began to hear groups of people whispering about me wherever I went.I wound up in a mental hospital and was given the label “paranoid schizophrenic.” From 1969–1978, I was in and out of five different hospitals. Finally I was so fed up with this recycling that I made a strong intention to never return.I decided NOT to do whatever the hospital told me—I did not take their free medications, I didn’t attend community outreach sessions, and I did not live in the neighborhood with other ex-patients.There was an excellent therapist I’d heard of, and I waited two years for her calendar to clear. She told me that the voices I heard were a signal of rejection. She suggested that instead of listening, I should take action relative to any current feelings of rejection. When I did this, the voices gradually lessened to zero over a period of a year.Since 1978 I’ve not taken meds or been in psychotherapy.For more information please read my memoir, go to my website, and read this short article.If you have any more questions, please contact me.

I WANT TO SMOKE WEED BUT HOW DO I STOP BEING PARANOID?

it'll stop over a while.


I had the problem for a while but if you just chill(and before you get high arrange for your parents to know your either spending the night or staying out late)


Just learn to relax and breath deeply smoke more and keep reminding yourself "I'm okay, I'm okay, my mom knows where I am I'm okay I'm okay"

Keep telling yourself that and your high will get better and better.

You may even have to get a hold of yourself to get paranoid to be calm. Lol.

Have fun!

Can weed make you paranoid?

This is very normal for some; marijuana is a psychedelic drug. Although it is (usually) not very strong, all drugs effect different people in different ways. I have had similar experiences when smoking. It always passes with time.

"How do I stop this?" you ask... Don't smoke.

If this is the effect getting high has on you, pass the pipe when it comes your way. It is a recreational drug that people use for fun and relaxation. It does not sound like you get any enjoyment out of it.

Does smoking marijuana make you paranoid?

"Why does cannabis cause paranoia?"From what I understand, it doesn't cause paranoia, but triggers dormant paranoia, the same way it can trigger dormant schizophrenia. Components of cannabis interact with your brain and enhance certain feelings and emotions in much the same way alcohol breaks down inhibitions.I'm socially extravert, but when I drink alcohol my sensitivity is enhanced and that is not a good thing. I get irritated from obnoxious smells (like cigar smoke or choking perfume) when I'm eating, or loud noises. Usually, I can contain myself, but when my inhibitions go unchecked, I tend to get into people's faces about what I dislike about them. Which is why I only drink moderately in a controlled environment (like m own home), where I can withdraw into my own room. I don't have this problem with cannabis. With some people it's the other way around - they get festive from alcohol, but cannabis makes them depressed or paranoid. However, their depression or paranoia is already in them and triggered by the cannabis, just as my dislike for certain behaviours and attitudes is dormant within me, to be released by the intake of alcohol. So if you use cannabis and you don't feel well under the influence, don't use it. There are plenty other drugs that might have a more beneficial influence on your personality.
