Major freak out...

    Hey guys. This is my first post here, but not my first visit, but I really need some help. Also I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section. Basically, I'm 19, and a uni student. Never used to drink or smoke weed before uni (never done anything else either), but I knew that when I came, I wanted to atleast try alcohol and MJ. First time I smoked MJ, I had a MASSIVE freak out, tunnel vision, super fast heart beat, whole body felt like ice cold jelly, anxiety and paranoia. Well, a few days later I thought I'd give it another shot. That was about 2 months ago. Since then, I've smoked with my flatmates every-single-day for about 8 weeks straight now, with about 4 joints per day on average ish, and everything's been fine. Last night was weird though. Basically, I just smoked a really good J, and my dad calls to tell me that I'm flying out last minute to the states (I live in the UK), and that he'll be picking me up the next day instead of in 4 days time like planned. And I realise I have a shit load of washing, cleaning, hiding all my stuff, and all of a sudden, I start sweating, super fast pulse, jelly legs etc all over again. I couldn't think straight. I felt like I had really bad butterflies. I was lying on my bed trying to get up but I couldn't. It was like my brain wasn't connected to my legs anymore. I also hadn't eaten in a few hours before I smoked so maybe that contributed. Basically, I just wanna know if something like this has happened to you guys before :( ?

    It has to me, but not quite the same scale. Sounds like you just need to take a breather and get through it. Do you have anxiety attacks? My girlfriend does and literally just sitting there calm and letting it washover seems to be the only thing that works. Maybe try eating, it might take your mind off things

    Thanks for the quick replies guys. Yeah, I'm deffo a lot calmer this morning. But it just felt like I was in a totally different reality. I mean, I love being high, but last night I felt like every single aspect of my entire life was out of control. I know this isn't the situation, but thats what it felt like. Either way, I'm not going to be able to smoke for about 2 weeks so it should make for a nice break :)

    It'll be alright. I also have anxiety, not too bad or anything. MJ can make it better or worse. If I can calm down and relax and smoke a J I'm good but as soon as I freak out its much worse. You have to train yourself to stay calm when you're high and wait until you're sober to worry about, well anything. Hope that helps

    Don't worry man, it happens sometimes. Being high makes stress bigger SOMETIMES, you'll be alright bro.

    doesnt sound like a panic attack at all, just normal physical anxiety. it happens for many reasons all the time.
