I've noticed something weird and I've been trying to get somewhere with this? help me out!

First of all I'm a very paranoid person and I have a mental illness and i don't know if anyone knows this but mental illnesses and drugs don't mix, sadly.

Anyways, I get even more paranoid when I smoke weed and I'm sorta used to it and my boyfriend is aware of it as well. But yeah when I smoke I can get 10 times more paranoid than usual and every time I ask him stuff like "am i doing something wrong?", "do i look high? can people notice?" (specially if i'm around his mum or da popos) or just tell him i'm freaking the fuck out and he always tells me "you look fine what are you talking about?", "you don't even look high at all" and stuff like that. And he hasn't been the only one to comment that.

Apparently, when i'm high or drunk i look like i'm sober and that's insane because in my head this is what's happening:

I'm not an expert on astrology by any account, but Neptune often deals with drugs and alcohol. There could be indicators relating to that somewhere in your chart. In any event, if it makes you uncomfortable, why do it?
Because even though it's really bad i have moments it's good, and it also helps me somehow.

When i'm with my boyfriend he helps me feel less anxious/paranoid when i'm having an episode and then it's back to being good again. it comes and goes during the time i'm high, sometimes it gets really bad and it feels like it won't go away but he's always there to help and i manage to distract myself.

it's tiring but also having an mental illness. but anyway there's so many things i haven't been able to do or i'm not able to do because of it. i guess i'm just trying to be normal and not letting it stop me from having fun and enjoying things i like.

Doesn't always make me paranoid, depends on how I feel before hand... like I won't want to get out to get food and be around people
i usually like just staying at home doing stuff or going somewhere private with people i already know. it's also good cos i know nothing i'm not prepared for will happen, like a loud noise, people being loud or arguing, anything that would be already triggering if i wasn't high it's best to avoid really. and again, being with people i know will look after me and make me feel safe

I guess not. I (not virgo rising) dont look high when i am high . Exceptions there though.

My husband (virgo rising) makes sure everybody know that he is high . He becomes the entertainer then .

Honey welcome to my world, I get high and walk around my house at night and I'm constantly telling myself there is no one creeping up behind me to kill myself, I constantly find myself tensing up from thinking about this shit and I talk myself out of it....I don't even have to be high, I took a lot of drugs when I was young so just staying up late I start to think of fucked up shit from being sleep deprived

bub I have news for you. Being paranoid when high has nothing to do with astrology lol.

It's called you got some bad weed.
Nahh, that's the good weed 😛

If you're not paranoid af, your shit is weak! LOL

whaaaat!? 😢

Though tbh I'm never paranoid when I'm stoned but it's really funny to see my friend being paranoid af. I'm more of a "My consciousness has transcended to a whole new level I can now feel and see everything. Holy shit this place is filthy, let's clean all the things... AT THE SAME TIME"

Drugs affect people differently. Even prescription drugs. There's nothing wrong with you. ?
I know that. my problem is having a shit brain
I don't get it. What's the point of the thread then? Sincere question?
click to expand



I didn't make this thread to know if there's something wrong with me, i know i have a mental illness and how the drugs affect me and it's my choice to use them or not but anyway, my question was about how even though all the shit is going on my brain and i think people can notice it, i look like i'm sober and doing just fine.

I thought virgo placements aka rising and moon made you look more organised and that u have your shit together

you know what, never mind.

I experience the same thing, it comes with being a stoner. And yes, if you have placements or aspects in your chart that indicate you could be slightly more paranoid, then it is worse. I have a but load of Scorp & 8th House and I'm a huge stoner. But I don't worry about things like if people know i'm high and shit like that anymore.. it's progressed. I'm now more paranoid about someone killing me or hurting me. It also plays on my insecurities and creates false illusions in my head in regard to life and relationships. It sucks but my Momma ain't raise no quitter 😛

My boyfriend has heaps of scorpio and he's really into drugs lol I don't have any but I usually never refuse an opportunity to getting high/drunk. maybe cos i have a personality disorder or other placements?? I honestly can't tell my mental illness from me as a being but aqua sun? aren't we all prone to be stoners and maybe lil too open minded bout drugs

This is my kinda thread

I'm an aqua with Virgo rising who has tried several drugs.

Let me tell you weed makes me paranoid sometimes too. You gotta find the right strain that makes you feel good.

Also, once you get more experience in public you will adapt to your surroundings

You gotta face your fears, that's why weed is good too cause it makes you aware of your deepest and repressed fears

ALSO when you think you look high chances are you look high AF. I hate when people say "nah you look fine"

Point is you gotta embrace the weed. Let it guide you and break from that Virgo prison
Thank you, this was very helpful

I hope i'll find a strain that will help me out and not make me feel worse honestly, i don't think get the paranoia i'm talking about.

buddy. I don't think you read what i wrote? or understood my point like apparently most people who replied to the thread

Did you miss the part i said i get paranoid because i have a mental illness? the weed is fine, my brain just doesn't accepts it well.

Relating to astrology, my point was how people see me, their impression of me when i'm not sober, and it was just a thought since i have Virgo placements and several people made similar comments.

Drugs treat all people different. In high school I use to feel a white out coming many times. I think it's similar to paranoia. Something with oxygen being cut from the brain, or maybe just the drug taking over makes your brain race. I get moments of paranoia all the time, but they normally only last a few minutes. I get paranoia worse when sober tbh. Weed makes it easier to move on from the paranoia, because my mind is wandering to many places. Especially if drunk. The thing we getting drunk is the major amount of damage I can tell it does to my health. I've learned how to control my high, which is why weed is such a good medicine. All medicine wants to take things over and change you in some way. With weed you can adapt and adjust and make it work for you much easier with less cons. This is impossible with other things like alcohol. I also don't like to smoke too much. I feel that has a huge impact on your mind. I just like to puff a bit throughout the day and try to maintain a balanced high. In the end though if weed is making you feel bad and you can't control it, don't use it.

Do you just feel paranoid, or do you have panic attacks? And if you keep getting paranoid, why do you continue to smoke and drink? Just curious. I used to smoke A LOT until some asshole laced my shit and caused me to have a horrible panic attack to the point that I felt like I was gonna die. Now because of it, I can't smoke at all. I have horrible anxiety too and THC triggers it. I tried smoking again a couple years back, but I just kept getting panic attacks so I completely stopped. I'm a Virgo rising too, but I don't think it has to do with astrology. When I was high, you could tell I was high af lol my Virgo rising didn't hide it. Have you tried pure CBD for your mental illness?

Some weed really freaks me out lol.

Maybe you should start smoking cbd buds. Thc gives you that heady wonky vibe. Cbd is just chill. Relaxes your body and is said to be great for anxiety. I tried this one called sour tsunami. It's 100% cbd. Very nice. Also the oil comes in capsule form.



Yessssss girl you know what's up. CBD is the shit. Helps my anxiety so much.

I feel like people with Aquarius placements are more prone to having panic attacks or freaking out when high. At least the ones I've met, they seem to retract into their mind and overthink a lot. What is it that sets you off? My boyfriend is an Aquarius, and what triggers him is the thought of being a meat sack, amongst other things like how vast the universe is lol.
