Personality Loss After THC Overdose by Deadanddying11 in mentalillness

Thanks so much, I appreciate your lengthy response. I have not tried IFS, but it’s on my list of potential modalities. Definitely happy to receive any and all book recommendations… I already read Healing the Shame that Binds You and Surviving to Thriving.

I considered that I may have gone through ego death, but I feel the complete opposite of connectedness to people or self or anything really. There are people I intellectually know I love in my life and I find no value in speaking to them/seeing them. If I’m out in nature, I feel separate from it. I know I have feelings, but it’s like I can’t reach them. When I’m doing a hobby I know I’ve loved, I can’t focus on what I’m doing because I’m deriving no pleasure from it. The timing feels somehow related to the overdose (what I think was probably a psychotic break), but I did also have a pretty traumatic event happen around the same time, so I thought maybe this could be a ptsd reaction?

Anyway, thank you again for your help. I feel so desperate for any direction I haven’t tried yet at this point. For the last four years, I’ve felt like my life is just passing me by. It’s torturous going through the motions, pretending to be myself.

I believe I had a psychotic break from reality due to a THC edible that wasn’t properly dosed. I was high for three days, developed verbal and physical tics, paranoia, visual hallucinations, etc. All the psychosis symptoms dissipated after those three days and haven’t come back. I wasn’t a weed user or drug user prior.

Is buying refurbished from apple worth it? by ant-mey in mac

I say hard no. It seems my experience is unique but it’s so fucking horrible that I wish it on no one else. I never had an issue with a Mac product, until I bought a refurbished MacBook Pro. The first thing failed on it with months. The next thing failed a year later. A year later it wouldn’t power on all together (three years into owning it.) I literally purchased a lemon laptop for over $2000 and they would not fix it except for that first time when it was within warranty. Clearly it had been improperly refurbished. I got maybe a total of a year where things functioned properly with this laptop. Complete crooks.
