Whats Wrong With Me? Will I Feel Normal Again?
Posted: 05-15-06 17:10pm

Im trying to figure out if any1 has ever heard of what im going through rite now. Like I dont feel normal like I feel like the euphoria feeling all day kind of. Like 2 weeks ago I smoked some weed and I tripped out and didnt feel normal. Well last thursday I think I felt normal again im really not sure but I did some cocaine and my heart felt like it was gona explode and the back of my left leg started to hurt and at one point both my legs had went numb. So today is like the fourth day and like all day I feel the euphoria and I just know I dont feel normal . Im kinda paranoid sometimes but not really paranoid. Like im not keeping myself in my house I still go do stuff I just want to feel normal and im scared that I might have !@#^ed up something and aint gona feel normal again. Im not hallucinating or anything and I will never do drugs again. People do drugs for years and are ok and ive only been doin drugs for 3 or 4 months maybe I my body and brain just cant handle them like everyone else. Well I will never do another drug again. I dont want to see drugs or smell them at all and I will never do drugs again. Like I was at a party last night and I smelt weed outside and I went right inside. I couldnt really enjoy myself though cuz I dont feel normal and I just keep thinking like this aint gona go away. If I dont feel normal in two weeks im gona go to a doctor. Well I was just wondering if any1 has heard of this or anything and if you think ill be ok and will feel normal again

Mostlikely Withdraws
Posted: 05-15-06 17:22pm

Your feeling withdrawls from your drug use, you may also be addicted to drugs, and are going through the common I want to quit, but cant. Also you could be suddenly suffering depression which could be from the drugs since your brain does not feel stimulated with out them. The brains neurotransmitters do not send the natural "high" anymore, but it can be regained with time, and cancellation of drug use. People who do drugs for several years, and may seem fine from the out side, but often have interal organ damage, and severe mental damage. Its hard to specify what may be wrong, I would recommend seeing a doctor. They are natural withdraw symptoms though. I hope you do make the decision to stop doing drugs. They have damaged my life, and I never took them, it was a family member.

Ok maybe I explained it a little wrong. This isnt from not doing the drug. I have been feeling wierd since last thursday when I thought my heart was gona explode. And also I felt like this when I smoke the weed two weeks ago but its not that I just dont feel normal my vision isnt normal either like I see everything weird I dont know really how to describe how I see everything its just not normal. The only way anyone could know what I mean by everything I see is all weird is by going through this and I wouldnt want anyone to go through this. It sux not seeing things normal all day and at the same time my body doesnt feel normal and feel weird things like anywhere in my body all day. Could be my foot having a numb feeling or my fingers feeling weird or my legs or my head or my chest. Just like anywhere in my body and the whole time my vision is all weird. Im so scared that this isnt correctable.

Your right it is anxiety it fits perfectly to whats going on. I was scaring myself thinking I had psychosis or schizophrenia but when I was reading the info on it I knew it wasnt that. I think what happend was that when I smoked the weed it gave me a panic attack and thats y I felt the same way I do now for days and I thought I was gona die for like 3 days. Well it was getting better before I did cocaine. I think when I did the cocaine it made my anxiety back to really bad im so glad I figured it out and im not crazy and im gona be ok. Im not gona drink soda anymore I think that was attributing to it too cuz I read caffine can add anxiety. Thank you so much for helping me realize what was wrong. I truly believe im going to be ok. Thank you so much.

Ok, listen carefully. It seems like nobody has come up with a constructive reply regarding your problem yet. And as you yourself put it, one needs to have experienced something like this in order to understand what you're going through.


Depersonalization, my friend. This is what you have, and this is what is going to stay with you for a very long time, if you don't 1) drastically change your life habits, 2) visit a doctor and mention this condition to him.


This is called derealization/depersonalization (dr/dp) syndrome, and basically it makes you to be sort of disconnected from reality. Usually it progresses into a long term depression. I had it years ago, yes, after smoking weed. Back then I didn't understand what it was, but now I feel I can help people by pointing them into the right direction.


Seek help, it won't go away after a few day by itself.

Hey drifter,

i just read your reply for hollaback and it sounds like dp is what I have as well. I just posted my symptoms on the thread called "i am scared." it seems like this is exactly what's going on with me, although it feels like it's starting to phase back to normal now somewhat.

I wanted to know, you said to get better you have to change your habits. What habits in specific are you referring to? I couldn't find any information on recovery. Thanks drifter.
