Hello,
Thank you for sharing your experience. It sounds very distressing and emotionally overwhelming to repeatedly experience fearful thoughts, feel disconnected from reality, or feel as if something unusual is happening around you. Since you mentioned that these symptoms started after using cannabis (ganja), it is important to take them seriously and not ignore them.
Sometimes substance use can increase anxiety, fear, confusion, overthinking, derealisation (feeling unreal or disconnected), or other psychological symptoms in vulnerable individuals. Since you also mentioned that symptoms improve with medication and return again after stopping it, proper professional follow-up becomes important.
At this stage, I would strongly suggest:
• Consult a psychiatrist for proper evaluation and guidance
• Avoid cannabis or any other substances completely
• Continue medicines only under medical supervision
• Maintain proper sleep and routine
• Share your experiences with a trusted family member or supportive person instead of handling it alone
You may also benefit from counselling or therapy for anxiety, stress management, and coping support along with medical treatment.
Warm regards,
Dr Namita Ranjan
