  Is it the weed, or is it the growing awareness of our bleak reality that comes with age?

  depends on person to person, strain to strain.

  however, the most important part of doing drugs is to respect them, and respect being sober as well.

    This. I don’t partake anymore because if I have too much, it puts me in a full-blown anxiety attack, sometimes with existential terror mixed in, and couch-lock on top of that. Nothing quite like appearing to be having a fine time to the outside world while internally being trapped somewhere between emotional purgatory and hel for several hours.

    The risks outweigh the benefits for me. That just means more for everyone else though ;)

  THC believe it or not, straight to panic attack.

  It actually is a trigger. CBD on the other hand… That’s my godsend. It will squash my panic attacks almost always.

  I used to be able to smoke “regular” weed as long as I made a blend of CBD and THC, but within the last month that’s gone now… Could be 90% CBD and a sprinkle of THC and I’ll still feel like I’m having a heart attack…

  Anxiety sucks. :(

    I wish it was just a panic attack for me. I can’t describe it.

    The world switches to existing in a purely “chunked” experience. I smell, then I see, then I hear, then I feel, then I taste, never at the same time. Agony for 4ish hours of a racing heart and a mix between nausea and cursing how it must be how stupid people feel all the time. No ability to process anything.

    Will the food stay down? Will it come back up? No one knows but it’s going to be a rollercoaster I can’t get off of.

    Nothing feels remotely good about it. I envy anyone who can enjoy it

  Cannabis reduces my anxiety but increases my wife’s anxiety a huge amount, so she won’t use it. It’s weird.

  Well i think that some research shows that weed can full on accelerate your mental breakdowns and help them surface or whatnot, so it’s not the best thing in the world, maybe the high CBD variants would help you calm down

    If you have a family history of schizophrenia or psychosis it’s definitely a good idea to abstain.

  I’ve only tried weed gummies. I don’t really like the thought of stuff going into my lungs.

  Anyway, I don’t seem to get anxiety with them, not they make me feel like I’m sick with the flu…except I’m hungry instead of nauseated.

  Weed also effects me way more than other drugs it’s odd. I definitely support it and will enjoy just in extreme small amounts. But like I swear coke and k both have less of an effect on me. Weed practically immobilizes me all night with little to no function.
