I don't know if this is because I'm focusing on it, it's really hard to explain. I've always had an anxiety disorder, but was fine without medication for 6 years up until about 5 weeks ago when I had a massive freak out after smoking weed.
I've managed to control the anxiety attacks, but still get a lot of the stress symptoms. I think I've been suffering derealization too.
However, one weird symptom is I keep getting is kinda feeling like everything is familiar, or things are constantly reminding me of past events. Kinda like deja vu, but not as strong as to think "I've experienced this before", more of just a feeling of familiarity. Also I keep getting random memories popping into my head, totally insignificant to anything I'm doing at the time.
I'm thinking this is a stress/anxiety/OCD symptom, like I'm just focusing on it more and more so it's happening more. Ugh it's just so annoying, makes you feel like you're in a dream. Anyone else experienced something like this?
I dont mean to pry but I dont know if weed smoking is a habit or one time thing .So I will just tell you that alot of people trying weed who already have anxiety do not have good experience on weed whjen they try it.It seems to take a few weeks at least for extra anxiety to slow down.I smokd marijuana for many years then it suddenly had this panic affect.It used to calm me .There was never any going back and all I did was take more panic attacks.But yet so hooked on pot I kept trying.So finally I let go but mostly just drank more and pills.If you believe pot has taken this turn on you please do not continue to try.I have been clean now for 6 yrs.What you are describing sounds very familiar so I reccomend to not smoke weed.Take care.
Thanks. I don't smoke it regularly, this was the first time in years. I just got drunk and then smoked, kinda stupid.
I dont know if you're going to get this, but im feeling the same thing. And have the exact same story where i smoked to much weed. Have you ever gotten over this deja vu familair feeling?
Hi foxthefox
I get this feeling to but it's very strong like im stuck in a past memory is this what you get to
Are you still experiencing this???
Hey!! Are you still experiencing this??
Are you still experiencing this???
I am having the same exact feeling now, can anyone help?
Hi
Do you feel like a strong sense of the past us present ?
I be having the feeling as if i already seen something that has already happened or know what's about to happen next. Similar to deja- vu but not quite. But i know I've never experienced none of those things before so it's weird
I suffer with the same thing where it feels like dejavu at times before I've collapsed and no Dr really gives any fix to this I've suffered with this about 5 years now and the amount of times I've had to call in sick due to feeling iffy because I'm scared I'm going to collapse at work
I just want to be normal again and I duno how
Has anyone got tips on reducing/removing these attacks I'd appreciate any feedback back
If it comes in attacks that only last a short amount of time like seconds to minutes and you have other symptoms that accompany it, it could be something like temporal lobe epilepsy. Look it up and maybe speak with your doc about it. Could be it and getting treatment for it could reduce these attacks!(: hang in there
hey sorry, do you still experience this?
hey please im also experiencing this. do you still have it?
hey. do you still have the deja vu like feeling?
please tell me you overcame this and how in fact, this happened to me once and i overcame it by traveling to puerto rico and went the whole trip (2 weeks) without smoking i overcame it so well that i forgot this was happening so like an idiot i smoked again and its back been 5 days now
ive been dealing with this too, at first I was having issues remembering and stressed and it’s like my brain flipped a switch and I get visuals of what I think is going to happen and sometimes my brain is creepy accurate. I’m also an infjt. I had this happen as a kid, it’s like it’s focusing on patterns, body language, and history then paints a picture. I could ruin Wednesday the show I watched a couple minutes of the first and last episode and by the time it showed the window I started having visuals. the blonde girl who is Wednesday friend is a bad guy and she turns into the creature as well as a friend she has with beanie. the Dr. lady did it and framed gomez by creating situation where that guy was attacking and fell in front of principle lady and died. and I got most of that just from seeing the web window in beginning of movie. I’ve also predicted someone going to jail, my sister being strangled, a wreck, someone almost dying from od inseen them nodding and didn’t even know they were on heroin, all sorts things. it’s also easier to see through ppl. I don’t even think the same. also Washington d.c. isn’t in Washington anymore and I’ve noticed it since they talked about cern last year so now I have to ask myself is the whole world crazy or did I re write my memories. my whole life that famous landmark has always been there and It’s on the complete opposite side and yes I am aware of the 2nd one in Virginia. I lived in ne and there is an underground tunnel from president to capital of my state…it’s all weird now everything else is seemingly the same except some stories and videos I watched the people telling the stories switched the gender and person that was originally part of story. example a. Jim Carrey prayed for a bike video, it was a man in the first and he even did the accent with more pizazz because it was an Irish man not a woman..now it’s a woman. my credibility has lowered like if I told someone there was a killer outside my door they’d think I’m crazy even if there was, I had an above average iq, learned my instrument in a week memorized my 1st song that Friday and played it to teacher. what happened to my brain? idk starting to think crazy people might be onto something. also weed and alcohol never mix for me either bleh but smoking is great with coffee
