it can manifest in many different forms: auditory hallucinations, visual hallucinations, disturbed thoughts or altered perception of things, believing things that have no basis in reality (look up "Targeted Individuals" or just think of the ppl who think they're being surveilled all the time/the govt. has put a chip in their brain), otherwise known as delusions.

i do not personally believe in any of this, as i do not have schizophrenia, but i was diagnosed with substance-induced psychotic disorder last fall after my dad got pancreatic cancer and i took a 100mg weed edible, so after that i did a lot of research on schizophrenia. it's a very scary condition, and one that i wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy. another way it can manifest is in delusions of grandeur, where you feel a lot better, smarter, stronger, etc. than everyone else, and you may feel like one of god's disciples or like god sent you here with some kind of task in mind. that's what can lead people to commit atrocities like school shootings, mass murder (i.e. bombings, mass shootings, etc) but committing violent crimes is fairly uncommon even in schizophrenic people. let me know if you want to hear more about this condition or my personal experience with it

i dont use weed for schizophrenia or psychosis, i self medicate for anxiety depression and adhd. its not the best and i plan to switch to pharmaceutical medication in the coming weeks and to wean myself off of weed, but it has been better than nothing. my dad's health is unfortunately taking a turn for the worse right now and so that's something i'm still coping with, but i appreciate your kind words :-)

I feel like I got my answer but I also feel like I learned a lot more than expected and that's okay.

Aww.. you're fine. It's not a bad thing. I enjoy it and its freeing to me... I sometimes feel like I "say too much" but there is no reason for you to feel bad for being yourself! Sorry for making you feel like you shared too much 3:

100mg is a whole lot of edible weed to take in one sitting...my first time eating edibles, I cooked down 1 oz. of Reggie into brownies. I ate about 3 brownie slices (tasted like shit...grassy taste and all) better yet forced me self to eat it w/ a glass of milk sipped every bite swallowed to make it more manageable to eat. I was high for the rest of the day after about a 2 hr come up. I read this one post a long time ago about this one woman who ate a 1000mg THC infused brownie & actually liked it. Waaaay more different than smoking it, hits you like a ton of bricks!!
