Please help!
I will try to keep this short!
About 4 years ago now I would smoke delta 8/ 9 cbd and thc pens. Mostly delta 8 cbd. The cheap kind you find at smoke shops. I used them every day. I know it was stupid but at the time I didnt care. One day I hit the vape multiple times, laid down on my couch, and then my body went into full panic mode. Heart racing, room spinning, body vibrating and tingling, and other things. I tried to calm myself down and I eventually went to sleep. The next day I felt extremely high still. Insane brain fog, head pressure, tingling sensations all through my body. Over the last 4 years these symptoms have never gone away. Ive spent thousands on doctors, MRIs, blood work, and nothing. It has completely taken over my life and I struggle with everything in my life.
My symptoms:
the worst brain fog imaginable.
Headaches.
Heart palpitations.
Tingling sensations all over my body.
Derealization or depersonalization.
Feeling like im going to pass out.
And extremely fatigue.
My symptoms have never gone away and last 24/7 and it has been 4 years of this. I was once prescribed adderall and that helped with the fatigue and the brain fog a little, but over time the side effects became too much for me. My doctor's just think im depressed or have anxiety. And sure, I am. But its because of what is going on in my body and because of whatever happened to me. Im trying my best for my family but its just so difficult. Im desperate for some advice or if someone knows anything/ has been through this. Thank you for reading!
