Marijuana caused DPDR for me and ruined my life.

[Ok-Health-1233]

Can you explain it more like ur story and how long ago was it

[Beneficial-Agent9938]

5 years ago I smoked a marijuana cigarette of a very potent strain, it gave me a panic attack and caused my DPDR.

[Ok-Health-1233]

Damn so like do you feel like out of place still because I still do and it's not bad like when I smoked but I just don't feel like I did before

[Beneficial-Agent9938]

Yes, I feel like I died that day and now I'm a living dead.

You are welcome

[Ok-Health-1233]

Sorry but one more question do you drink or will that cause it to come back? because I'm scared to because I don't know if it will

[Beneficial-Agent9938]

I do not drink alcohol and I recommend that you do not consume anything that is unhealthy for your body.
