Anxiety/panic disorders from Psilocybin

The only hallucinogenic drug I've used aside from Psilocybin is Cannabis, and I haven't used it in a while. The first and last time I used Psilocybin was a month ago, and I used it three times throughout that month, all light doses. The first dose was the most significant, I started off having a panic attack because it all felt so foreign and I wanted the effects to stop, then about 40 minutes later I started feeling really connected by love to everything, this made me start tearing up and I felt a lot better from that point onward.
Early this month I came down with a sickness and I felt so sick that I thought I was going to puke. But then I randomly started tearing up and I felt that similar feeling of love, except this time it was more directed at my body, and the symptoms slowly declined after that.
Now, the day before yesterday I was eating lots of food, including some hot food that I've never had before. When I woke up yesterday I felt a bit light-headed and my mind just wasn't where it usually was. I felt a bit better in the afternoon and tried going out, but I felt really anxious halfway through and decided to turn back. I had a small panic attack when this happened, feeling like I wanted to die because mentally I just felt so 'out of it' and I was in an area I wasn't familiar with and I just wanted to be back home at the time. I eventually got back home and rested up.
Today I feel a little bit better, I think my body's a bit dehydrated from what I ate two days ago which might be causing this, but I still have this same 'loose' state of consciousness. Could I be developing a psychological disorder? And is what I'm experiencing even related to my use of Psilocybin?

How often do you smoke bud? I have been suffering from the same thing lately. I guess it occurs after an intense or bad trip. I have been cutting down smoking and I am on day 3 of smoking only once or twice a day and I havent had anxiety.

The last time I smoked Cannabis was January this year, a quarter ounce (a few times a day) throughout that entire month. Before that, I hadn't smoked for a year or two.
EDIT: I sometimes panic when I smoke Cannabis, but that's usually only when I smoke a large amount without having smoked it in a while.
I think it might be a similar thing with Psilocybin. After I knew what to expect, I didn't panic and it all went well (but then again, I've only used light doses).
I'm usually like that with new things though, I remember I used to feel really upset on the first day-week of school, but then I felt happy after I adapted to it.

Well, you did do it 3 times in one month. It's okay I have done that as well, I was a little more new to the whole thing. Anxiety is common in most people when the come up begins. How much were you taking? Was it cubensis? Usually when I do a low dose, i'll eat like a gram, maybe a gram and a half so it makes the come up easy. Then ill eat the remainder later You will be fine soon, I haven't tripped since march but I can tell you I feel much better in the head. Sorry for your uncomfortable mindstate.

I was in the same boat back in April. I ate 1.5g three times that month. I have always suffered from an anxiety disorder but have been doing just fine with treatment. I noticed my panic attacks were coming more frequently than before I ate the mushrooms, I was more emotional as well. This added anxiety lasted about a month and slowly tapered off back to where I was before. I am confident you will go back to normal soon...but everybody is so different I can't say for certain.Good luck!
