So I've smoked weed 3 times in my life. The first time it didn't do anything. The second time I had a huge panic attack and i thought i was going to die. Fortunately the next day i felt nothing wrong with me. Everything was good until i smoked again for the third time when i didn't get very high but I had a small panick attack. And after the third time smoking the weed (which was some unnormally strong stuff) I've felt very anxious. It started a month ago. I'm constantly worrying about the anxiety. I've had a few anxiety attacks in this month. It's like a sudden hot flash when i'm in some kind of familiar situation where i already have had an attack, where i smoked, etc. Every day is a battle with my own mind.
I've been thinking that maybe this is an actual mental illness now and I should go to a therapist. I've always been kind of depressed and slightly anxious, but it's never been anything serious. So is it woth it? I mean, i still have hope it will be gone but maybe not? I can feel great for 2 weeks or so and then I have an attack again and i'm still worrying my ass off. So, what should i do? Try to fight it on my own or go to see a therapist? By the way, I'm 17 and i wouldn't like my mom to find out about it from a therapist.

Cannabis is renowned for increasing and triggering mental health problems. Wont go into it but if anyone wants to know more ask a psychiatrist not some quack who made a few video’s on youtube . in your case it seems to have increased your anxiety I would highly recommend seeing a therapist that is a specialist in “cognitive behavioural therapy” or CBT it has a huge success rate. Id avoid a doctor if you could. On its own at this stage I don’t think it will get better. I have had anxiety among other things for years and really wished I nipped it in the bud.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
