Is It Okay to Smoke Pot After a Brain Injury?

I’m 24. I had my TBI at 18, and recovered in 4/19 from the brain injury center and then went back to high school for 2 years and now I feel like a pos because all I do is wake eat shower get high get more high all morning go to work at 12 come home at 5 and get high and go inside and eat dinner get high then go to bed rinse and repeat I smoke a lot of pot

I’m a 25 y/o how was a heavy smoker after my brain injury I felt like it wasn’t a big deal since my progress has been good but weed hit me worse and I felt like my emotions were uncontrollable

It's amazing that all of these people have had TBIs and believe that smoking pot has helped them; but they write like they are illiterate. Perhaps they have always had this deficiency and they don't see how it makes them out to be? This TBI survivor (coma for 6 wks) will stick to conventional medicine and away from pot.

I CAN NOT use Cannabis (including Dabs/Wax) like AT ALL anymore. BECAUSE the first time I used Cannabis after my TBI the friend that I was with just stared at me. He looked SO confused & very CONCERNED because all I did was lmfao for about 2.5-2.8 hours, it was non-stop laughter, & I stayed high for like 2 or 3 days just not lmfao high. When my mom found out about 1 week later that I got high, she sent me to the hospital (insanity floor), 1 doctor said that I was "SUICIDAL" for smoking Cannabis, ya she got fired as soon as her boss was done talking with me! But because I told my psychologist how high I was she told me to go back into the "Insanity Floor" & I had to spend about 2 weeks there that time because they had to take SOOOOO much "medicine" away from me.

My fiancé fractured a bone in his skull and had a some bleeding, I wasn’t in the room when the doctor addressed about his smoking and his mom keeps telling me he can’t smoke but she’s never wanted him too. My question is is she being honest with me and if so roughly how long should I have him stop? He uses it for ADHD and ADD

Can I smoke with a concussion or after my concussion

John clearly never had a brain injury or suffered from the long-term effects. Everything from speech, and communication to migraines, anxiety, and anger. I feel a comfort after smoking marijuana. Indica and Hybrid strains have helped with painful migraines and anxiety. They have also helped with anger issues that have been so intense, I’ve frightened myself. Not being able to control your own emotions is the scariest thing I’ve ever experienced. Ive had suicidal thoughts, inconsolable anger, migraines, and anxiety. Never had anything like that before my TBI, and nothing has came close to helping, except marijuana.

I was a lost heavy drug user and GOD revealed himself to me when I had diffuse axonal injury (tbi) 2018. I was speeding lost control because there was black ice on the road after a snow storm in nc, I flipped 3 times flew out the vehicle and hit my head. I was in a coma for 6 weeks (month and a half). I am currently still recovering my balance,coordination,and speech. I have smoked again but it does not help me at all. It sets off my ataxia and nervous system. It does affect my balance and coordination and it could take a longer recovery. I believe it is not worth it. I recommend PATIENCE. The wait will be worth the while.
I Thank you Lord for giving me the wisdom to understand that there is no need to be impaired. I was one that felt needed to be high to be okay, boy was I deceived. Anyone who reads this I hope in Jesus name that he will shine a light of science through me. There is no need to be impaired. Jesus Christ should be priority. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Thank you

I was in an induced coma for 2.5 weeks a bit over 2 years ago after falling off a railing while blackout drunk. The neuro surgeon performed a craniotomy and after a few months of being in hospital and learning how to walk again, I was all good. My sense of smell isn't that great anymore but it's not gone :)

I didn't smoke, drink or do drugs as my neurosurgeon said that I absolutely must not do that. However, at the beginning of this year I asked him again and he said: "I don't recommend it". I obviously took it as: "I'm a surgeon so I can't say yes cause if anything happens I will be in trouble". So I started smoking cigarettes and weed again (never drinking again). Some days I do get Horrible headaches but I do believe that it could be normal from smoking too much tobacco and drinking too little water that day. For the weed, I just started smoking that again (+- a few weeks ago) and so far it has been really enjoyable and fun.

I went on this website because the top back part of my skull had a sudden small concentrated vibrating pain that lasted a very short amount of time (This was the first time) so it scared me a little. If that happens 2 more times in a short amount of time I will quit everything because it's honestly not worth risking my health like that.

when smoking weed, I also enjoy starting with a tiny bit first just so that I can read what my body is telling me and if there are any minor indications of my brain area being affected. Then I smoke more.

I read all the comments here.
it seems I'm not alone in
the weed brain business.

So I'm a teenager gonna be 18 this 18th Feb,
I had an accident almost 2 years ago
I fell from a running car on a hill somewhere while I was high
I had hit my left side of the head
so I needed brain surgery cause my head was getting filled with blood
after that accident, I got out of hospital within a week
ik who gets off so soon, But I'm a kid so I heal fast that's what the doc said,
I started smoking after 1 week at home.. so I held smoking for 2 weeks after surgery.
After that, I left home within a year and started living alone. I started smoking 1 pack a day and needed a joint each day must.
now I'm still high.
it's my birthday month so I'm getting high every day of the month.
but inside I'm scared that will I ever heal fully?
how long it will take? I need to take meds every fucking day for the past years.
Life's already a mess ... how can I feel better?
Sometimes when I work out too much or get high too much my left side of my brain vibrates from the inside.. like it's a heartbeat of the brain. I feel bad every time I think about how I put myself in this position every f@$%ing day.
