Strange effect of weed.Depersonalization?Depression?

I feel:
-Numb
-No Emotions
-Depressed
-Worried
-Like I can't enjoy anything I enjoyed anymore
-Like I'm here but a part of me is not
-Like I don't exist and that only my body exists
-Like I am not in my body but can somehow interact with the world
-Like everything is fake
-Like I have a barrier in my head that doesn't allow any emotions,concentration and my thoughts
-Like a hollow human being
-It's hard or even impossible to me to interact with my thoughts,the world,my emotions...
...
Also I find it hard to think,concentrate,feel,see,touch,study… and so on.

I would bet an anti-anxiety medicine and an anti depressent would help. The anti anxiety would work straight away, but the anti depressent needs time to build up in your system. Some feel better after just a few days on anti depressents while others take more time, like weeks. I'm wondering, now this is only a theory of mine, but you know how certain drugs produce your dopamines to release more and faster? Well I'm wondering if you already had an underlying disorder (maybe not aware of yet) and after smoking the pot, it triggered it from the release of your dopamines and now you're pretty much drained. I know this may sound weird, but it's just a thought.  Regardless, this is a serious thing you've got going on and I would seek medical attention asap! Good Luck to you and I hope you feel better soon!

If you go to the doctor about this I would bet they will want to put you on xanax or valium, something for anxiety. I'm sure it will clear up on it's own eventually.

Im really not sure what is going on, but I would probubly get into my doctor and ask him/her if he has any ideas.   I know that sort of suxs and will be hard to do.. but it is really the only way to find out for sure.

Personally, I don't like weed because it would make me feel the way you are explaining when I was high. I'd feel "out of body", paranoid, worried, and basically alot like you described.  However, it would pass after a few hours.  I have only smoked about 7 times in my life because of this reaction.  Not sure why you would still be feeling that way after 7 weeks tho.  :-/  Sorry I can't be of more help.. I hope you find your answers soon!
