normal??:(

[cheyenne]

Okay well I pretty much had some sort of breakdown at school and started balling my eyes out for an hour and 45 minutes, and I was laughing at some things... And i felt for some reason that life "isn't real" and I started freaking out cause i thought we were dying in 2012... and i just wanted to know if you think this is normal? People were asking me if i was high, and some people were laughing at me. then I started getting upset cause i felt like everyone was pissed off at me and that everyone thought I was nuts.. I swear to god I wasn't high.

lock.please.what.a.troll.

Definitely not "normal" I don't think I've ever seen anyone break down like that, is there anything that may have triggered this? Other than 2012 conspiracies.

It's a curious thread indeed, but let me do the moderating please

And to the OP: if this is a serious thread, (i'll assume it is for now), sometimes stuff can get on top of you, can I suggest if this becomes a regular thing that you see a doctor, you may be able to get some medication to calm you down a little

It is a little strange that this post is using full stops instead of spaces, but even assuming that is because the space bar is broken, the grammar and english used is terrible in comparison to other posts made by you, so if you are trying to troll, make a better effort.

I guess most of my suicidal and self harming actions and feelings started about a year ago, when my dad got a new girlfriend and told me she was having a baby soon, all the change may have triggered it, I dont know.

It might be the pot, my friend looked up long term side effects of it and this is what he got:
1. Anxiety and panic that may cause public or private breakdowns
2. paranoia (an excessive fear- that reocurs)
3. Confusion
4. Suicidle thoughts/actiions
5.Depersonalization- A sufferer feels they(or everything around them) has changed and the world has become less real, vague, dreamlike, or lacking in significance
6. Derealization - fealing as if like is lacking emotional colouring and depth

For future formatting ideas, how about copy and pasting a space, so just highlight a random space, copy it and then paste it inbetween words, it will save me going through the effort I've just been through to make your posts readable rather than just lock this.

Also going to move this to depression loss and grief, at the mention of the self harming a suicidal feelings, as you will get a better response from there I would imagine.

[cheyenne]

That would take too long, I've gotten used to using periods.

Oh and thanks btw luke.

Luke edit: Changing periods for spaces, etc etc.

Okay, you have most if not all of the symptoms your friend discovered online in relation to long-term usage of marijuana. Your reaction isn't exactly an atypical one either. You had what seems to me is a panic attack, followed by paranoia as to what the others around you were thinking. You've mentioned suicidal/self-harm behaviours, as well as a sudden belief in the 2012 nonsense, which could be as a result of confusion. You also mentioned that you felt that life wasn't "real" which is dissociation, which is along the lines of depersonalization.

My recommendation: Stop smoking, it seems to me that this would be the first step to figuring out what the root of your problem is. Give it a couple of weeks. If you're still feeling the same, then i'd recommend seeing a therapist.

SIDEBAR: Luke, I know you just moved this to the Depression forum, but I think this would be better off in the Substance Abuse and Use.

[Shreyas]

Its not normal, I think its a panic attack, if it happens again go to a therapist.

The main issue is the panic attacks, suicidal feelings and self harming, which is better fitted here. The pot smoking is one possible theory of why it might be, but it isn't the definitive answer. Therefore, it belongs here, imo.

Sounds like a "panic attack".

[SentimentalTune]

I done this, not for 2012, but I just ball out crying at school alot! Peoole asks me what's wrong, but I can't answer because I don't know. I cryed for a long time like 3 hours ago. I don't know why. I use to it because, I do it all the time. I just need some help... =/

[Avery]

well i don't think its normal to worry about 2012 which will just be another day
