Hey guys I am a 17 year old girl and i smoked weed with friends in the park with my friends 2 days ago and I'd never really had it before. Initially it felt really good and for the rest of the day i felt in my own little bubble but yesterday i had a panic attack and my anxiety/depression got worse throughout the day. I'm really worried because i've only recently come off anti-depressants and been feeling better but I've heard that it can worsen depression/anxiety and i just pray i havent undone all the progress of the anti-depressants but i'm feeling how bad i was a year ago when it was at its worst :/
Do these feelings wear off? Please help

All the feelings you described are normal with use of weed. I did the same thing after i got off anti depressants and looking for something natural to help me. Weed made it worse, it brought back the depression and worsened the panic and anxiety attacks. Do not touch weed anymore, it worsens the condition we have, it gives you false hope and them messes you up more. It will take several weeks for your feelings to go away, so just take one day at a time. If you take anxiety medication, then keep using it, but dont ever touch weed again, it is a terrible cycle to go through.

Thank you so much for your reassurance- it's such a relief to hear from someone who's been through the same sort of thing and good to know that hopefully the feelings will pass :/ I don't take any medication anymore because I thought I'd got through all that and my doctor said it was fine for me to stop so i hope i don't have to go back on it

Good for you, the only medication am still on is Xanax for my anxiety. I don't take it everyday or even often, only when it is absolutely necessary. I have been using Vitamin B complex, folic acid and magnesium to help with the anxiety and it helps me not have to take Xanax everyday. But i am more glad i am off anti depressant, that was also one dangerous cycle with all its suicidal side effects. It did help me, but am glad am off them now.

If you have pre existing anxiety, weed will make it SO much worse! You could also be depressed because you want it again and don't have it. It will calm you down after the anxiety goes away. But it makes it worse.
