Many people have had a MJ psychosis
since that is just the MJ lasting much longer than expected, and visuals/audio hallucinations
I had it before, it went away after few weeks no probs since
I don't smoke weed because of it
Psychedelics are no prob since, but I didn't take psychedelics for a good while after that psychosis (many months) The psychosis was like demons/faces in every object staring at me, not walking directly home, paranoia, door bell ringing often and going out to open the door - but noone there etc. Lasted 2-3 weeks, got gradually less and less (paranoia lessened and gone now)
Don't smoke too much weed, it's not good for you (had smoked up to about an 1/8th a day or so for a while of the strongest I could get) 
weed on the other hand is a problem for me now after psychedelics can't smoke weed anymore, become too self-conscious and antisocial when I smoke it psychedelics do the opposite for me
have since taken 600ug of LSD on several occasions, no probs , died a few times on both lsd+mushrooms without problems i'm just very sensitive to weed it seems, it affects me negatively psychically , affects my thoughts negatively , psychedelics never do
the reason weed doesn't work for me everyday anymore is after psychedelics it becomes easier to recognize your mistakes and what you must do to stay happy smoking everyday made me unhappy, so can't do that anymore

Sounds like typical anxiety attack. I experienced myself these symptomes nearly everytime 
I used to have some Xanax just incase 
It's not psychosis, it's anxiety as it's finest.
Same boat as me brotha!

Ahh-- it really is a relieving thing to face such a frightening event such as passing out on mushrooms/weed, and then coming on here to just end up reading reports of people experiencing very similar things.
It happens. This has happened to me twice now-- what you titled "psychosis" sends off the vibe that it was actually a panic attack, just like the doctor said-- anxiety can really skyrocket when you undergo intoxication from a drug (especially cannabis or mushrooms)-- your thinking is heightened, you think of what makes you anxious, and anxiety becomes a drug of itself.. I've gone through this twice now, but both times having been exacerbated by mushrooms.
For me, it frightened the fuck out of me.. Like you I am a naturally anxious person when the concern of my internal organs become involved.. This capricious event of just having an enormous wave of anxiety flow through you, and sending you into a panic attack exacerbated by a hungry stomach and a brain that wants to function.. It was frightening for me, but the only thing it left were worries. But soon you realize that you really have nothing to worry about and that you are just fine. I thought I induced brain damage after having simply what can be called a "whitey", like the other gentleman called it...
I can imagine what sort of a relief it is for you to read from a number of people that these things have happened to others, and continue to happen, because I know I found it a relieving feeling.
Just plan better. If marijuana sends you down an anxious road, stay away from it for a while. If it always sends you down an anxious road and that is its effect on you then completely stay away from it. It's that simple. It's when overthinking becomes involved is when things become difficult. The mind should naturally tell you what you do like and what you don't.
I have been writing too much. This is the end now

drink water and control your mindset....well controlling it can be difficult on serious psychs, but you should at least be able to influence it and change trains of thought, which change vibes of the experience
realize what you are thinking about, and analyze whether it is positive enough to keep on that path of thought......
if you take psychs, try meditating on the reason why you want to take them for atleast 10 minutes (i prob sit there for an hour just thinking about it and how i want the trip to go.)
Seriously, you need to be quick on your feet and notice negative thoughts ASAP if you trip.....but then again my most positively influential trips were "bad trips" from intense fear/doses....having friends or a sitter can be very reassuring, but I prefer solo trips

I've had bad experiences with weed much more (percentage-wise) than with any psychedelics. If it were me in your place, I'd definitely try a smaller dose at first, in lemon tek so they kick in fast. But that's me, it's hard to recommend things to another.
For me personally, shrooms usually put me in a place of power, confidence, health, cheerfulness, one of the best states possible really. Hope they do the same for you.
