Is this Bipolar, ADHD, or pot effects? Please help.? |
Okay, this has been a tricky question for the past seven months. My boyfriend of a year has been through hell. He hasn't smoked long enough for effects. And even if he had smoked for 20 years +, those aren't the effects of weed. It seems that he may have ADHD, and Laziness!! I am thinking the Shrink didn't prescribe him the correct meds because they probably didn't properly evaluate him as a subject. He should get a second opinion The Docs love to feed one problem with another drug. It sounds like your boyfriend is self medicating, pretty much masking his lack of enthusiasm for life with weed and eventually it will catch up to him, but paranoia is never that extreme and exaggerated. That just sounds like a minor case of Schizo. But what does anyone know, he could just be an irrational high anxiety type and all the wrong drugs the shrink is giving him may be screwing him up even more. i would go to a different dr and get another opinion but give it time and if bi-polar meds were working some perhaps he needed an increase or something else i know myself it can take up to 2 months hope this helps for one pot can't have that strong of side effects alone, but if he continually smokes pot while on medications then the effects can change dramatically and be severe, on another note you need to try other types of medications because some work for only certain people so try some others Abilify, Seroquil, Depakote just to try a few. marijuana can create schizophrenia episodes. i suggest not smoking it. If your boyfriend thinks there is any possibility that he was having any problems with ADHD or ADD, before, have him read the book called, "Allergies and the Hyperactive Child", by Dr. Doris Rapp. I know the title sounds like a book a high school student would not want to read, but he could look at it as 'research'. If he truly wants to figure this out, he needs to begin to learn. He should also understand the difference between ADHD and ADD. ADD is similar to ADHD but there is no problem with activity levels. The main problem is concentration and/or organization and memory. ADD can be very easily missed and the person can be labeled as lazy, when they are truly trying. This can be very frustrating. Please have him read the book so he can decide for himself what might be going on. Medications are fine where warranted. But information is very important to each one of us. |
