Could I Be Going Schizophrenic or Becoming Mentally Ill?
Question by Rae Rae BAY AY: Could I be going schizophrenic or becoming mentally ill?
Im 16 and on my birthday about two months ago I smoked some weed and had this real bad “panic attack” as my counselor says but I really think it was a little bit of psychosis involved and its also believed that the weed was laced with pcd and basically I’ve had real bad anxiety ever since but I’ll never smoke again,I’m really healthy I’ve been to the doctor since the incident and they haven’t found anything wrong thank god and my momis working on getting me into therapy,im in homeschool because now I have real bad insomnia,my brothers 17 and he smoked weed and it brought out that he is schizoaffective and bipolar so sometimes that plays on my mind that that is what could be wrong with me,sometimes I get really really sad and just break down and cry then I’m fine after,sometimes I look at the clouds and sky and get freaked out,sometimes I’ll have delusional thoughts like what am I? What are we? Is this a dream? Am I supposed to be here? There’s other planets other than earth so where do we go when we die? But I know I’m just thinking to hard and need too stop so I just do things too keep my mind off it sometimes I’ll halucinate but I know its not real and its not real bad hallucinations its like corner of my eye type things ,when I look outside and see people walking I’ll ask myself how do they do that? Why don’t they think like me? Or why can’t I be like that again I’m not sure what I am it could be bipolar disorder but I don’t know,I also read up on this stuff a lot because I wanna be a psychologist one day so I kinda think its all in my head and maybe I’m gaining the symptoms ,I also have ptsd because I was abused when I was younger and the marijuana incident also has a big part of the ptsd ,I hate having agoraphobia it is not fun,my thoughts aren’t fun sometimes I just feel like I’m trepped in the world or in a dream and one day I’ll wake up I just want it to stop,help.

The most recent I could find for the US has the figures for 1997:
“A study shows that the U.S. spent a combined $ 11.9 billion on alcohol and drug abuse treatment, while the total social costs were more than $ 294 billion. The results were part of the National Estimates of Expenditures for Substance Abuse Treatment, 1997, which was released at the end of April by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s Center for Substance Abuse Treatment.

Governor’s Jack Markell’s Weekly Message – August 24, 2012
Governor’s Jack Markell’s Weekly Message – August 24, 2012 – In his weekly message, the Governor talks about Delaware’s Prescription Drug Monitoring Program. “Prescription drug abuse is the fastest-growing drug problem in the country. It’s not easy to talk about because it destroys so many lives, so many families and so many communities,” said Governor Markell. “Until now, there has been no formal network in Delaware for doctors to readily share information about the drugs they are prescribing for patients. Now, with the launch of our state’s new Prescription Monitoring Program (PMP), our state Division of Professional Regulation will be collecting information on controlled substance prescriptions.”
