Panic Attack

I still get panic attacks on a regular basis. The important thing to take note of is the fact that it might not be because of the weed that you are having panic attacks. Has anything else in your life changed recently? That being said, any kind of substances that you're not used to taking coupled with conditions like panic attacks is not a good mix. I'd stop smoking the weed and see if they stop, then you know if it's the reason.

I don't think smoking more is the answer. At least that did not help for one of my friends from my hometown.

You guys know that he said he QUIT smoking pot two years ago. Not started.
EDIT: Fail. I didn't read the line under that saying he started again. OUCH. Salty.

Can somewhat relate. Last April I was drinking with this chick. When I was good and drunk she rolled a joint and we went to town. I went into rolling blackout territory, which is not all that uncommon for a Friday- but one of the times I came back into the "light" I vaguely here her asking if I'm ok because I look pale as Casper... Next thing I know I wake up at 3 pm the following day with damp towels all over my body and my feet elevated. Apparently I turned into E.T., you know, the part where they find him by the river all white and sick... First time it happened, and it hasn't happened since then... Sometimes the body works in mysterious ways, friend-o. Good idea to take a little breather, and ease back into it with caution afters something like that.

Like not being able to breathe, heart racing and such like that.

Does anyone else have the same problem?

Or does anyone know what this is caused by

Stop smoking pot (if your panic attacks are like anything I've seen panic attack sufferers have, you've probably stopped already)

Also google 'no more panic'. The website of that name will tell you all you need to know, and put you in touch with a lot of people who suffer from panic attacks
