This was probably caused from high stress levels, and enhanced by high THC and Cannabis usage (I used to smoke very high potent Cannabis for many (5+) years in Canada, then for 3 years in the Netherlands). The doctors in Europe told me I was dependent on Cannabis, and the doctors in Canada told me that my psychosis was probably drug induced. My episode of psychosis lasted about 2 months as well.\n\nI ended up having an accident which broke both my wrists, and head injuries as well (I had a La Forte II fracture), possibly from being hit by a car, or falling off a balcony. I have social anxiety as well. I have been prescribed Haloperidol for the last 2.5 years. I have been successfully discharged from an Early Psychosis Intervention program. My current mental health team has told me to lower the medication, continuing until I am completely free from the Haloperidol because I have been stable since my accident. I have also had some unfortunate minor issues with side effects from the Haloperidol, such as sometimes I have a lip twitch, and make a pouting face occasionally. \n\nI have done some research on CBD, and I am wondering if CBD is safe and could be something that I could take once I am free from haloperidol, to maintain stability and make sure I don't relapse one day and have another episode of psychosis? \n\nHope to get a reply, thank you for your time.\"\n_____________________\nTHC has been shown to exacerbate psychotic like symptoms, however CBD has been shown to do the opposite. Researchers have even been looking into it as a medication for schizophrenia and other illnesses where the patient experiences psychosis. I have written about this here: https://www.hellomd.com/health-wellness/cbd-an-alternative-to-anti-psychotic-medicine\r\n\r\n\n\nryan\n_____________________\nCBD can be used as an effective way of managing psychosis. Research shows CBD increases the body's own production of anandamide, an endocannabinoid, which is said to have inverse properties of psychosis. Research also shows that anandamide may fight off psychotic breaks completely. Thus, CBD should be a resolution to this problem. However, I do not recommend testing out CBD until the Haloperidol is completely out of your system. This can take up to two months after stopping the doses. It is also good to keep in mind that THC has been noted to interfere with psychiatric medications, however, that is not the case with pure CBD. I would make sure to look for pure CBD products such as CBD tinctures and oils.\n\npetergdw\n_____________________\nA whole plant preparation of CBD rich cannabis would likely be helpful to minimize the possibility of psychosis. Make sure that the other cannabinoids and compunds are found in the preparation, as whole plant preparations are far superior to isolated cannabinoids. Start with a small dose (5-20 milligrams of CBD and 1-5 mg of THC) and observe for results, increase the dose as needed. THC in isolation, or in extrememly high, unbalanced ratios may tip off an episode of mania. Many people also report racing thoughts with a very strong sativa. CBD actually helps to decrease this effect. The bio-chemistry of the endocannabinoid system seems rather complicated, and the best advice I can give is to start with a small dose of a whole plant preparation that has a well balanced ratio of cannabinoids. Observe for results and increase the dose as needed.\n\nandrewvanmd\n_____________________\nHow to sensibly buy LEGAL cbd oil online?

Katja\"\n_____________________\nPeople do successfully come to California (or another state - like Colorado) and manage to find the medication they need. The rules followed differ from one vendor to another, and there are people that might be able to guide you that specialize in this type of 'medical tourism.'\n\nFrom our perspective at HelloMD, we can connect you with a doctor from your location in Germany who may be able to advise you on treating your condition with cannabis alternatives. Once this is done, you could choose where you would like to visit, and attain medication, or have your son in Canada assist. He also may be able to get medication for you in Canada. \n\nAlternatively, if you do visit California we can connect you with a doctor upon your arrival. Again, dealing with retailers will be a process outside of our control, but people do have success with this type of endeavor. \n\nSo you have some options.\n\nmark","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11245-markdown","title":"Do you ship to Canada?","slug":"do-you-ship-to-canada","content":"\"I'd love to try these for my dog who has arthritis.\"\n_____________________\nCurrently our shipping options for Canada are rather limited, but our customer service crew may be able to walk you through additional options.

Do they have this info at border patrol/immigration or no?\"\n_____________________\nWell, that's interesting! I have not heard of this before and the answer to this should be 'NO'. \n\nIf you are in California, you are not required to register with the state. Assuming you are not registered with the state, which requires you to do on your own and pay an additional fee for, your recommendation is completely private as it is a medical consultation between your doctor and yourself. You are required to give your medical recommendation to dispensaries which then allows you to register you with them, but this would imply that somehow the government is monitoring every individual signing up with dispensaries or collectives and that somehow they have access to the dispensaries computer systems, which I highly doubt. I would doubt this because it would have to be at a federal level and not a state level and this would be an incredible effort and cost initiative to do so, then that info would need to be shared with our international counterparts! Highly improbable.\n\nEvery state differs with how you get your recommendation and some states require you register with the state, but the state considers that a legal action, not an illegal action. So my guess in even those states is they would not share that with another country. Why would they?\n\nYou are OK traveling to other countries such as Canada (where it is legal) and should feel fine about having an MMJ license. I would not however ever travel with actual product to another country, this is most likely their concern.\n\nHope this helps!\n\npamelahadfield\n_____________________\nIf you got your medical recommendation through HelloMD, and you never registered with the state of CA - then no. There is no way the border patrol (or anyone else) will know that you are a medical cannabis patient. \n\nThe information you provide is complete confidential as per HIPAA guidelines, and is not shared with any regulatory body or database.\n\nmark","image":null}}]}},"pageContext":{"limit":12,"skip":0,"numPages":1,"currentPage":1,"id":5041,"name":"Canada","slug":"canada","country":"US"}},"staticQueryHashes":["3949754563","4179947113","4202924991"]}
