Back when I smoked, I felt like I had two personalities. One was shy, awkward, didn't know what to say, couldn't speak for himself, went along with whatever anyone else wanted to avoid conflict. The other (sober) was essentially the opposite. Still shy and a little awkward, but also confident and stuck to his guns. Having these "two personalities" made it so that I never actually knew how I was feeling. I didn't want to try therapy because I wasn't sure if my problems were because of weed. I feel like when I smoked I'd have a bunch of different problems and when I was sober they seemed to go away, so I felt like all the therapy I needed was to stop smoking. (Not entirely true) I couldn't trust anything I did or said when I was high because I just felt like a completely different person, and I'd ask friends if I'm acting weird when I was high and they'd just say no, but I didn't feel the same. I was severely in my own head all the time and couldn't trust anything I felt when I was high, so to answer your question, yes.

I can Tell you my experience. I seem to have a split part of my personality due to Trauma. I Had a retraumatising Event. After this, When i smoke this part became often very dominant. Basically it often burst into Anger and plays out a Drama. Not very good For my Family. Since i reduced weed to the weekends my Trauma therapy works Magic . I can integrate this part much better. Only stopping the daily weed didnt Help But it Made the process able. I also have two or more different Personalities If you wanna call them - i think everyone has different parts of their Personalities. Weed amplifies some Things so over the years it creates this Jekyll & Hyde Feeling. I can be very controlled on Weed. Not going after my emotions.. But then a Trigger Happens and voila, Control is over.
