yeah, the 2 "real" panic attacks that i've had....where your heart is racing and you're hyperventilating were just after i smoked up. i used to smoke weed a lot....and then i started to quit becuz i wasn't feeling comfortable at times....as i smoked less and less, my friends were smoking better and better stuff, so when i did smoke, i'd get totally fked up and that's when the attacks set in. both times, i quick said "bye" to my friends and drove home...it's hard to drive okay when you're heart is beating against your ribcage and hyperventilating!
if you are worried about panic attacks and can't handle weed well sometimes, stay away from the stuff! it has been documented that it can cause attacks. |

| he's saying ur stupid if u think weed cures anxiety. Drugs are the cause of anxiety ... dude, smoke everyday for 5 years, and then go cold turkey righ away. Not only will reality set in, and u slowly realize uve been living on cloud 9 for 5 years, but the dopamine levels that u were so accustomed to, go away, and u dont know how to in act in public ...at least thats what happened to myself. It sucks when u dont have a 3rd party substance to control ur bodily functions and keep u cool in certain situations. I learned to stop fidgeting n' like a crackhead just recently LOL |

It all depends on the situation...in your case smoking that long and then stopping is obviously going to cause problems. If you smoke once in awhile to chill out, thats one thing but chronic use is another. Smoking a little weed can help calm you down or do the opposite and make you worse, it really depends on the person, the weed, the cause of their panic attack, etc. etc.
It comes down to everyone has anxiety (some more than others) but we all need to find our way to alleviate it...some may like smoking some weed, some may like to read, whatever but find out how to help your anxiety even if you have to go a doctor because it sucks living that way. |

well Remiks answered this for me, but yeah taking narcotics for problems such as panic attacks, depression etc is a very silly idea. Drugs effect people in different ways but with the limited studies that there have been on them, then the majority of them are known to cause mental and physical problems. Now thats not really a sensible solution to the problem is it? |

If you have very rare panic attacks and you find that if you smoke some weed it calms you down, is it a bad solution to the problem? |
