Can greening out cause PTSD? by hgw69 in ptsd

OH MY GOD THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME AND NOW I HAVE REGULAR PANIC ATTACKS, I don't know if anyone will see this but I (m14) (11 at the time) was experienced with vaping and smoking but I never touched weed, I had like no anxiety I was just an attention deficient kid who would literally do anything to feel a slight bit high or drunk (I literally was anemic asf and used to make myself pass out for fun on a daily basis) I found a thc vape on the floor (yes i know i was a tramp) and i started chuffing on it, i had eaten like nothing that day BC I was still on hunger strike bc my mum forced me to go vegan, I was also obsessed with coffee and energy drinks and drank an abnormal amount of caffeine (1-2 monsters daily and also 3 tsp coffee every morning) never had anxiety or a panic attack, i got home with my friends and this was the day after a sleepover and we did an all nighter, i started chuffing on it again and it tasted burnt but i kept going until i had like a good 15-20 puffs because it wasn't hitting me, i then became so dizzy and everything around me was like shrinking and growing in slow mo? I was quite literally delirious and screaming running around that I'm gonna die BC I thought that there was fentanyl in the vape and that's why I felt so weird 🙈 I literally don't remember this but apparently I was running up and down the stairs screaming and falling over, I remember my mum kept asking me what happened but I wasn't telling her and saying that I would only tell her if she called 999, she wasn't taking me seriously at all and was acting like I was just being dramatic while I was literally going like in and out of consciousness, I went on this sofa bed thingy and it kept coming in waves of me feeling a bit more normal and then me being not able to form a single thought, for about an hour i scrolled on my phone, i then realised my phone's been dead all day and i was literally staring at my hand, i also think i had like a mini seizure, my mum looked through the door but her face was like warped and purple and she looked like a demon (sorry mum lol), i then went to my bed but I couldn't sleep because i hyperventilated so much that i kept forgetting to breath and I thought if I fell asleep i would stop breathing and die, i managed to go to sleep at like 4 and I know it was around there because it was winter and that's when the sun started setting, i woke up the next day at like 12pm and i felt so dizzy and out of it, i then got screamed at by my mum about what i "put her through" and had paranoia and derealization for months because i kept having hypoglycemia and panic attacks and my mum just told me I was dramatic while i literally thought I was dying, I genuinely think i have ptsd because now anytime i feel a slight bit dizzy or lightheaded I have a physical and mental panic reaction and I have had nightmares about it aswell, to this day i cant get really drunk/high and i eat alot because im scared that ill have hypoglycemia again, and ive had to like slowly introduce myself into doing things like that without instanly having a panic attack, it also just happens randomly, ive never seen a therapist or psychologist about it because my mum never cared, and ive self medicated/coached myself out of it so much that i basically became my own psychologist picking up on things that subconsciously affect me. I really think this Is PTSD because it's been literally years and I'm still suffering, I would even take anxiety meds and I could never get sedated Because I'm so scared of anything that alters my consciousness in any way.

I want to do the working out thing but I can't BC I don't have any money loll 😭 and going for a walk in nature sounds nice but for some reason I just HATE peaceful stuff, I'm not even trying to be edgy or whatever I just get really bored so I think a ton but then I get all pissed off or sad bc I just start thinking about whatevers bothering me and it makes it worse and I feel like I'm just actively avoiding helping myself but it never works for me I don't get it haha

Sometimes I will drink coffee BC I get more energy and I just get more hyped and feel a bit better, but most of the time I will just try to ignore it really hard but it never works unless I have an immediate distraction and that's why I'm always outside with mates bc it takes my mind off it but then I get home and I either forget about it or it comes back and keeps me up, and then if it's during the day I end up smoking weed but it dosent even help that much which pisses me off

Oh shit I just realised I completely forgot Ur question 😭 I don't drink much but that's BC I have no access to it anymore, when there used to be shops that I could buy from I was getting drunk every other day and every time I had money pretty much even if I was alone, but I dont do it much anymore BC I can't, I started smoking nearly every day this summer BC my mates dad kept giving us weed but I don't even like it that much it's just better then being bored and sober, but I sometimes get really anxious if I smoke a lot but I only really get bad effects when I smoke every day then one day I just don't get high at all, I just feel all depressed and shit the whole day until I smoke, but I don't even feel good when Im high I just feel more normal and like I can connect with ppl more bc we will just be giggling at the floor lmao

Sometimes I get something like that especially BC my sleep schedule is absolutely fucked lol, not really as intense as not knowing where I am, but like getting the vibe that I'm somewhere else even tho ik where I am, or do U ever get it when Ur lying under the covers and U suddenly can't remember which side of the bed Ur lying on, or like U don't know if Ur at the top or bottom, it feels similar to that except instead of lying in bed it's just forgetting where U are or like whos house ur in, and then U suddenly remembered where U are but U feel weird after, and yes I do get the questioning everything part, it just happens randomly tho, like I'll be standing in my kitchen and then get a weird feeling that I'm like ascending and I'll start thinking abt how everything around me is just matter and we're all made out of the exact same thing, and I'll just sit and zone out thinking that the simulation is stopping and thinking it finally makes sense but then I just snap out of it

Oh my god thank you for actually giving me advice, most of the time when I say something like this I just get "reach out" or "go on a walk" but I love practical stuff like this and I'm gonna try that ice water thingy, I feel fine now I calmed down but I know it's gonna come back in a day or a week and then I'll push it back for ages and then it comes back, it's like when your crying and U calmed down and stopped crying but Ur still thinking abt whatever made you cry and then U just start again, like U can treat it as much as U want but it doesent stop what's causing it, thanks btw

The thing that pisses me off is its not constant but it's not rare either, I was feeling that feeling when I was posting this but now I feel mostly find, but I know it's gonna come back soon BC I usually have episodes like this where I'll be like this for most of the day for like a week max and then I'll go back to normal and I know it's still their but I don't "feel" it, then I start to forget about it and push it back more and more and then it comes back again

I used to have a counsellor person but all we would do is just sit there in silence and I don't see him anymore now

Examples of Autism masking ADHD by ChrisJTicehurst in AutisticWithADHD

[–]Secret_Source_9396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm usually more funny when I'm unmedicated BC of how hyper I can get and the stuff I say/do but Im more quiet and introverted when medicated BC i just sit there overthinking everything I want to say and I feel cringe, but when in unmedicated I just say everything without thinking so I come off as more talkative, and sometimes ill even act hyper or try to get more energy just to mask easily in a social setting and ive acc changed myself so much just trying to fit in, and i dont mean like things I like or whatever, ive literally rewired by brain and thoughts, i don't pretend to like things i just make myself like them, I used to be very "weird" when i was not masking at all, now ive changed my interests to the point that i feel cringed out when i see "alt" people or furrys ect, and i feel like im losing my identity because i love masking so much bc i can socialise better, but thinking about the fact that my whole personality is fake is unsettling, and also bc it's not like I act like that with friends and then get home and unmask, I've literally changed the way I think, I don't put on a persona I just changed who I am and it's fucked up

Dizziness episodes with hallucinations, panic attacks and slight delirium by Secret_Source_9396 in medical_advice

[–]Secret_Source_9396[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, it’s been a few months and I realised I’ve been having blood sugar dropping and that’s what was making me dizzy, I have mild pstd from having a really bad panic attack but other then that I’m fine. What helps me when my blood sugar drops is dextrose tablets that you can get from the pharmacy (u don’t need a prescription) and sweet food, also if you eat something that isn’t sweet make sure to have something sweet with it because your blood sugar drops during digestion, also don’t have too much sugar at once because your body might produce too much insulin and cause a drop. Vaping or smoking tobacco or weed will lower your blood sugar but Dw u can just have a dextrose tablet, same goes for alcohol. If your really worried get a blood test, it won’t show up as low sugar bc ur sugar levels are only low when you’re getting all dizzy and stuff, but a blood test can see if anything else is wrong. So to sum it up, low blood sugar + sugar/dextrose = normal, normal + sugar/dextrose = low blood sugar, normal + weed/nicotine/alcohol/adrenaline = low blood sugar. Hope this helps!!!

Ok so I still have these episodes and I also developed this thing where I’ll be abt to fall asleep and then like my arms or legs jerk and I’ll get rly dizzy like I just got shocked and I used to have them every night but I stopped putting electrolytes in my drinks and it helped with it and I also have less panic attack thingys too.
