For Myself...
I used to take 5 prescriptions for my Anxiety and Depression problems. When I started smoking pot I had a nice feeling like I could handle things. I live in an area where pot is pretty acceptable, Humboldt County California, so there isn't a high stress level on worrying if I'll be caught, incarcerated etc. I've been able to discontinue All my medications and have been psychiatrist, pill and liver test free for over two years. I'm not encouraging the use of marijuana by others but I felt that by seperate viewpoint should be represented. Also, no I don't feel weird, stupid or paranoid when I'm stoned. I smoke a little in the evenings, never before work, and on the weekends. The effect I receive is that of an herbal soother. Thank You!

ADD is Attention Deficit Disorder, very similar to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). www.chadd.org
It is arguably overdiagnosed and overtreated-- but it is a valid, accepted disorder. Psychiatrists came up with the definition, not the government.

I used to smoke pot between the age of 14 and 16, when i was back in high school. I am 19 years old now and i quit that. At the begining i felt so good. But later on i've had hell. I couldn't concentrate on anything. My anxiety just increased. I felt like everybody is looking at me. I couldnt communicate. I couldnt have small conversations. It's just so bad.

Smoking pot while having social anxiety has got to be the worst thing you could possibly do. Where already paranoid as it is and pot will make it ten times worse , especially around people. I smoked pot when I had social anxiety and I really felt like going to the hospital, that's how bad it was. So now I won't come near it.

Mushrooms
Yeah, mushrooms are great, especially the part where you puke and then hear the trees talking to you. That can't be good for anxiety. My buddy wasn't real thrilled when the walls started bleeding either. We all pick our poisons. I've tried almost every depression, mood stabalizing and anxiety medication available. Those are great until your milk comes in or you become suicidal. I think the only things that work universally, no not pot, are homeopathics. Never met anyone who killed themselves taking those and Hylands Nerve Tonic has worked for me really well. I take an "emergency dose" of eight of these tiny lactose pills which are the carrier medium, and I'm okay to leave the house within a half hour. Xanax didn't nearly that fast for me and neither did Adavan.

I've never tried mushrooms. And never will. But i tried speed with friends a few years ago and let tell you I loved that shit. It took all my problems away. It seemed my social anxiety went away. Not like pot where it makes my social anxiety worse. Anybody reading this do not try speed , you feel good on it while it lasts but it very addicting and they say it kills you faster than almost any drug.

Hey seek , you're a newbie like me. But I've never had paranoa while doing speed. Actually it made me feel better about my social anxiety. I guess with you it made you feel worse. It seems to me everybody has what works for them and what dosen't. I personally will not drink or do drugs around other people. When I do it, I do it alone. The only thing I do now is drink and smoke. And I'm planing to quit drinking and smoking.

no way! :roll:
i'v tried shrooms once in life and i like it but it was a bit intense back then. it took me from pleasurable hallucination to bad ones in seconds and viceversa. but overall it as good and i like it. Speed makes people so nervous so i don't think its indicated in cases of anxiety, plus you can get a heart attack. the come down of speed might be kind of unbearable (depenind on dose) to people who already has some sort of depression.
Valeriana tea might work better for anxiety and insomnia and its therapeutical, no addicticion, i do reccomend it to temporary beat nervousness. but i dunno where they sell it in the states.

Take it from an old speed addict
it makes your SA far worse, not while you are taking it obviously, you feel like you can take on the world, months later you suffer extreme anxiety, panic attacks, depression, infact I wonder if my socail phobia is induced from taking speed/acid/cannabis/mushrooms?
I wouldnt be surprised and I've met a few online who think the same
DONT DO DRUGS KIDS!

Wow, very interesting that after my first post I am now reading this last response. Do you think the lomg term effects of this type of drug use are even treatable by cognitive means? Or are meds really the best option?
I personally don't mind the notion of being on a drug for the rest of my life if it will help me function normally again. Fighting fire with fire in a way. I just don't see how a therapist can help me workout some of the bad trips I have had.
