Suggest Treatment For Suicidal Thoughts After Smoking Weed
I was smoking weed by a cliff and randomly out of nowhere envisioned myself jumping off the cliff and falling to death and I freaked out. Since then all I have thought about is that vision and if I will act on it. I ve never had a suicidal thought in my life. Is something wrong? Everytime I think of it I get scared because what if I jump next time?
What happened to you is quite common with cannabis. It causes sensory disturbances like hallucinations and illusions which can at times lead to serious injury if people act upon them. I expect that you will remain safe if keep off cannabis. If you continue to smoke, then there is a possibility that you may act upon your hallucinations.
Best wishes.
