When I smoke weed, I overanalyse things to an insane degree. Take a simple social interaction and 50 thoughts breaking down and analysing the situation will occur in a few minutes. Some of them negative thoughts, also weed tends to amplify negative thoughts depending on my mood.
This is why I don't really like smoking weed and probably do it once every two years.
Relate or am I a schizo?

Idk if cannabis actually increases DMN connectivity per-se but it def. can cause rumination likely because it increases DMN use as it can cause the user to "turn inward" more frequently, activating the DMN and causing rumination in individuals where rumination would be present - and/or combined with anxiety-induction in certain people
idk tho, it causes me rumination and anxiety but that's just cuz I'm allergic

Try indica. But yeah that is normal for a lot of people. Big cannabis doesn't like to talk about its negative side effects.

When I smoke for the first time after a long break I hear my self-criticism as a literal antagonist voice far off in the distance.

lol dude sometimes i get more self-critical when I'm high (which can sometimes be a good thing it makes you notice if ur being an butthole) but I had one time on some weird research chemical, that I was told was acid, and I literally heard people laughing at me and shit when no one was around

Acid does that for me too but only when I'm somewhere I could expect to overhear conversation. Like my schizo nature is trying to be as plausible as possible.

Now that you say that you're right. It was when I was living at a dorm in college and was walking around I kept hearing laughing voices in a distance and assuming they were coming from the dorms higher up around me. I was just waling around like normal lol

I experienced the worst existential dread of my life after eating some edibles. It literally fricked me up for years. But I've realized, it just amplifies whatever depressed, negative thoughts I have. Currently on a new SSRI and my anxiety is at rock bottom. Being high is not currently a source of anxiety for me.

Yeah, when I smoke I tend to go down a crazy mental rabbit hole about religion and/or the vastness of human experience. Usually not as intense with edibles, but I seldom take those either.
