I greatly appreciate everyone for sharing there personal experience with these issues.
I'm currently 22, and I have been smoking weed since I was 14 on the regular basis.
When I was 16 I got arrested in school for having a bag(14oz) on me, and eventually got
sent to rehab after failing a few drug screens at the local outpatient program for 6 months.
During that time i was obviously clean and my 1st son was born.
I got out 17yrs old , turning 18 in maybe 8months and of course I bought a bag the same
day I jumped. Continued smoking for 3 years straight everyday until i moved out of town
and slowed down a bit due to a new environment , having to network .
I would smoke maybe once a week if that, and i felt so weird everytime.
I thought everyone was trying to set me up , and kill me .
I would constantly look out the window everytime i heard i sound.
One time i thought i was having a heart attack and I passed out after taking a few hits of the blunt.
After that happened I got scared as sh*t!!!! I stopped smoking and found a job at 20yrs old and
managed to hold the job for maybe 3 months until me and my gf got into a big fight and broke up
and I moved back to my hometown. FELT GREAT TO BE BACK HOME!! I was back hanging out
with my old friends smoking day to day , but there was still something just not right.
I was paranoid as hell and felt like everyone was out to get me and one night i was in the club
with some friends high as f**k and I started buggin out thinking my friends were trying to set me up and
get me killed by some guys I had problems with back in the days so i left and jumped in a cab back home at 2am. I still kept smoking because the withdrawal sucked ass and I just stopped feeling normal for the most part. Still to this day I smoke everyday and have terrible thoughts, dreams, trouble sleeping,
weird body temperature and pretty much anything irregular you can think of is wrong with my body
or mind or both . I feel like i'm going to die any day now and I'm so anti social now I only talk to myself????
What's the best advice someone can give me? I'm in desperate need of my normal life back.
I was the man in high school now I hide from society. I hide from God. I'm a nobody , but I need some
uplifting and I'm not talking about a blunt. Thanks for reading and thanks for sharing! Love to all !

Hey man I would highly suggest cutting down on smoking weed first off. I would deff. say talk to someone like a psych. To me it sounds like anxiety with a mix of some other type of mental things. Stress can be a big issue as well. I don't know much about this but I would deff say get some help just to be able to talk to someone and if anything they would perscribe you something but thats something they would have to decide.

Talk to a doctor. Maybe try to get started on some antidepressants and get off the weed. I love weed and use it daily, but I was once in yoir shoes.
I also started smoking in high school. I had a few bad experiences that left me never wanting to smoke it again..
A few years later who would have thought I would become a chronic smoker. I had moved off for school and was depressed and missing my family. I was Rx'd antidepressants, things started to improve and weed found its way back into my life. It was awesome when it lasted. I smoked morning till night ...going to work high on many occasions, but I was a functioning smoker...until one day. It just hit me...the panick, anxiety, weirdness I felt after smoking ..wasn't worth it to me anymore, but I kept trying for a bit longer and then all in all just have it up!
At that same time we were in the process of moving back to our home town and I had (months previous) started to taper my antidepressants. So I put two and two together and figured it must have been something to do with this chemical imbalance I must have. I gave it up, with over the next few years I touched it maybe a handful of times with similar experiences.
I had gave it up all together when I started having babies, although my husband still toked occasionally. But after my second babe I started to take a hit here and there and would have never known I was once a chronic user..one or two hits had me cooked. Of course I have now regained my tolerance and smoke daily. I now again, really enjoy weed. I am also back on antidepressants. I started them soon after giving birth to my last babe. I am not sure if they have any role in me being able to smoke and enjoy weed again, but it's working for me right now and that's all that matters.
I have read loads of similar stories. Most everyone posting is in their teens/late teens. Maybe age plays a factor. Not age as a number it self, but more in maturity oh psyche and a difference in life and experiences at that age. A teen has more social pressures and stresses and anxietys than someone established in life. Where your at in your head plays a big role in how your high is going to present. This might not be the case what so ever and it has been known to trigger anxiety and depression as well as other mood/psyche issues.
I would suggest you stop using for a while any way. It's not to say it won't be something you can one day down the road enjoy again.
Also, when I kicked it the first time I honestly had no withdrawal from it. Depends on the person again I guess. Just don't dwell on it or you'll be sure to suffer every withdrawal symptom known. Good luck and make sure to come back and let us know how you made out!
