Moderation is key. Have fun with your life while you can. Soon you will be so fucked because youll be old and saggy, and in pain all the time. Live your fucking life and be happy. Drugs and alcohol are not problems unless you make them one.
I've been psychotic from drugs many times. It's terrifying. Once I smashed my brother-in-law's car windows during an episode of drug-induced psychosis.
Yep, i had 3 grams of amphetimine and about 3 grams of mkat one night, was running around my house with a knife, sweating my heart nearly stopping from beating so hard, certain there was people surrounding my house to come in and get me, my mother phoned the police and they called an ambulance, i was locked up and sectioned for my own safety, held for a week in a hospital, and later diagnosed with an acute Stress reaction from drugs, not the best time of my life... In fact it ruined me as I've never been the same since...
I've never had a psychotic episode, but I know of others who have. It sounds like a trip down schizophrenia for about 12 hours, if you ask me (mostly due to methamphetamines).
Absolutely. Weed just makes me feel withdrawn from veryone in my own little world, and i thought that was bad enough. During periods where i smoked a lot i became parnoid/delusional and would sometimes see things that werent there when i was sober. Tried MDMA and loved it, had an awesome experience. Screwed me up forever because it was so amazing and i dont understand why i cant feel that good and happy all the time. Traumatized me a bit. Havent done it often enough to have real psychotic experiences from it but i can definitely see the potential. Everytime after doing it for the next week or so every sound i hear sounds like music or a beat. If i hear my clock tiking it will sound like a song. Fun, but so stupid..
I had a mild psychotic episode one night after taking concerta (imitation amphetamine) because I had to be up all night driving.
It kept me awake, but for a while I thought I was driving in a circle and passing the same roads over again and that I was gonna be stuck there forever.....
Dont do speed kids.
Never gotten psychosis from anything else though I guess it can happen if you have a bad trip.
Like karmasabitch said, moderation is key. Doing too much of anything can freak you out. Know your body, know your limits, and if you think you may be at risk of addiction, stop.
I've never heard of anyone having a psychotic episode while drinking alcohol. Unless you mean getting angry or sad more badly than if you weren't drunk. For the drug part of the question, I wouldn't know. I don't have many friends who take drugs and I don't consume them.
But drugs especially can eat fragile minds up.
