wow, that's amazingly scary, something like that happened to me, i smoked some pot and i started having a panic attack i kept asking my friend what was in that, and she replied with "nothing its just hella dank" but i didn't believe her, i started to feel like something was really wrong i became very uncomfortable and thinking we were really humans.. (weird i know) but i then couldn't walk straight like i was drunk or something but i could control my thought's i kept saying to my friend "dude i cant control my body but i can my thoughts, something is wrong" i repeated it. i think sort of calmed down once i got told it was an anxiety attack but it wasn't just that before i knew it i was freaking out again, i kept thinking i was going to die i would say "jackie call the cops" she'd tell me no so i then i found myself begging god not to take my life i kept saying "god why me? please don't take me" I'd go off about who i loved thinking i was really going to die, in a matter of seconds i blacked out i couldn't see anyone, i felt like i was at my funeral i was talking like i was telling myself how great it was to see them show up, as i knelt down i said some sort of pray, asking god to take me into his kingdom that I've had enough i couldn't take it any more, right then and there it all stopped i didn't feel like i had smoked anything i just felt really light headed and wanted to go lay down which i did, and once again i started tripping, while laying down i thought i was 6ft under in my own coffin with my own thoughts, but i could hear other peoples thoughts.. and i felt myself like being squished and my ribs being tore open, and i then finally came out of the trip
its been 6 months and 12 days since that happened and i will never touch pot again, but i still feel like god was giving me a sign, i lived my life worrying he was letting me know that he is coming for me soon, i was diagnosed with PTSD i had to go to therapy for what seemed like forever, but i'm still not over it, and i personally dont think i ever will be. i have really bad anxiety and when i have a panic attack it feels like im on acid and that i wont ever come off of it, the panic attacks last like ten minutes long, but i dunno if that's any help, your not alone (: keep your head up

Hello everyone, I felt like replying because I've read that some of you felt a lot better after sharing their story, so this will be the first time that I share mine. I started smoking pot about a year and a half ago. I loved it until about 6 months ago I had my first little panic attack while high. That was the start of this anxiety. I never had any attacks while i wasn't high. After smoking for a couple more months I realized that i wasn't even enjoying my highs due to the increases worry that I might have a panic/anxiety attack. So, I quit. About a month after quitting I got really involved in weightlifting because I wanted to start living a healthier lifestyle. Still at this point I wasn't having any panic attacks or anxiety(except for the slight social anxiety I've always had). Here's were it gets bad. I decided that I would order a preworkout supplement that would help my performance during lifting. The first day I tried it I had a full fledged 6 hour panic attack. The stuff gave me adrenaline through the roof and my heart rate was around 160 for what felt like 4 straight hours. Every since then I feel like I am going to have a heart attack and die. The anxiety has even grown passed just that. Im afraid to leave my bed cuz I feel like im just going to get all anxious again. I lived like this for a week before the pain/fear/suffering from the anxiety was too much. Just yesterday I took action and scheduled an appt with a doctor and a psychologist. I already feel a little bit more relaxed knowing that I've taken steps in getting better. Hopefully one day I will be able to return to my old self even better and mentally stronger than before. I am going to document my story so in hopes that when I'm better i will inspire many people going through the same thing as me to follow in my footsteps and get better too. I will not give up hope. I am 21 and I REFUSE TO LIVE LIKE THIS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.

I've had it for about 3 months going on 4 and I can tell I'm a lot better than my first month. But I've read were it can take up to 6-9 months tell your 100%. I think I have drug induced anxiety disorder but its go's away in those 6-9 months and I don't know about you Id rather be better later than never you know what I'm say. Here a link to a guys recovery from drug induced anxiety he took MDMA (ecstasy) I've never took that but I think its the same basic thing a drug panic attack caused anxiety just read it and see its kind of what your going through but of weed not ecstasy.
Here's some links).

PANICATTACK: YES IT WILL GO AWAY. TAKE MEDICAL HELP.
I USED TO HAVE THIS. WHEN I WAS ABOUT 30. IT TOOK ABOUT TWO YEARS OF TAKING MEDICINE. THE ATTACKS BECAM SHORTER AND
SHORTER. IN THE END I LEARNED HOW TO STOP THEM WITH MY MIND: 'GO AWAY ATTACK, I AM BUSY AND HAVE NO TIME FOR THIS'.
THEY CEASED. IM AM 69 NOW, SMOKE LIKE HELL BUT NO ATTACKS!!!
YOURS WILL GO AWAY AS WELL !!!! REGARDS WWALE
PS: FOR THE MOMENT, WHILE U ARE STILL UNDER ATTACK FROM THE PANICK-STUFF DO NOT TAKE DRUGS OF ANY SORT, EXCEPT YOUR MEDICINE. LATER, WHEN EVEREYTHING CLEAR AND NO MORE ATTACKS: U CAN TRY AGAIN IF U REALLY NEED WEED OR SUCH A THING.
BEST IS (AND ITS THE HARD WAY!!!) TAKE NO DRUGS... IT WILL TAKE ABOUT 5 YEARS TILL U ARE REALLY CLEAN FROM THE STUFF,
BUT IT WILL BE REWARDING !!! (YOUR MIND WILL BE BECOME MORE CLEAR AND YOU START TO UNDERSTAND MANY THINGS WHICH
BEFORE WERE BLOCKED BY EXTERNAL CHEMISTRY ... DO NOT GIVE UP !!! IT WILL CEASE AND U HAVE CHANCE TO MAKE IT !!! WWWALE

Let me start out by saying THERE IS HOPE! I smoked pot for the first time June 2012. I was high a handful of times then early July I had an INSANE anxiety trip. Crazy thoughts about reality being fake, thinking I was inside some weird God/Satan playhouse vying for my soul, and also severe isnta-depression and I'll just say scary dark thoughts that were completely 99.2% opposite who I am and how I feel.
I was freaked out and I continue to have extreme stress in my body and anxiety attacks randomly: meeting new people, going into new places, showering. It was rough. I went to see a psychologist because I was worried I ruined my mind. Like a lot of you, I felt like I was going to live like that forever. I was afraid I lost the "old me".
Now, 2.5 months later, I'm MOSTLY back to the way I was. The biggest issue sometimes is fear that I could freak out again and lose control of my thoughts/actions - which is really just not gonna happen. This is how I tackled my issue:
1. Stopped smoking immediately. I don't demonize pot, it just isn't for me apparently.
2. Started meditating daily. 10-20 minutes. Sit down. Shut up. Breathe. Easy peasy. Great for reducing stress AND building up positive moods inside the brain. Do some research.
3. Exercise. You feel stressed or you think you're gonna have a panic attack? Go for a run. Make the "fight or flight" response work for you by getting your ass in shape.
4. Quit researching it, quit thinking about it, quit thinking about thinking about it. Read a positive book. Write a letter to a friend. Call your parents or a family member.
I promise it gets better. You are not your crazy thoughts. You are not going insane. Thoughts are thoughts are thoughts. "I'm going to eat a pickle tomorrow" is the same as "I'm going batshit crazy". Don't attach more meaning to it than that.
Carry on, and best of luck!
