Bad Drug Reaction?
Question by Mark W: Bad drug reaction?
I hate to admit it, after having spent a lifetime anti drug, I indulged in pot about 2 years ago. It lasted for about four months, the good times were awesome and the great times were mind blowing. I was introduced to a new world of good people who had fun in other ways, parties and good times. These were not the traditional stoners you see on tv but good people who just did recreational stuff.
Four months into it, I started to experience intense anxiety attacks. All of a sudden it happened after a night of heavy drinking. At first I was confused and didn’t know what to make of it.
After the next month or so, I tried it again and again and the anxiety attacks worsened, so bad on two separate occasions that I ended up in the emergency room. Once breaking down in tears as each time the anxiety attacks happened, I thought and felt I was going to die.
All anti drug sentiments aside, why did this happen? Since then I’ve been prone to anxiety attacks and I don’t get it.

According to wikipedia: “In some rare cases, using marijuana can trigger moderate to severe panic attacks in its users. Panic attacks induced by marijuana usually influence the user to seek medical treatment.”
