What the hell is going on??

I've noticed for the last 3 months whenever I smoke weed it makes me feel really uptight and nervous. Last night I tried again and then found my pulse rate was going at like 120 beats per minute.
What the hell?? It was never like this before, now it is so overwhelmingly giving me the jitters that I have no choice but to quit.
What good is catching a buzz if I need a Xanax to calm myself down?
Has anything like this ever happened to any of you??
I am afraid I am going to have to put down the weed once and for all. I don't need any extra nervousness going on in my life.

My girlfriend had this going on for a while, it was related to a lot of life anxiety, and after a two month or so long break, she was fine.

I've been having a lot of life anxiety lately myself.
I always thought that weed would chill me out, though.

Ive had it before, weed started giving me major panic attacks at one point. I was smoking too much and one day i just started reacting to it. From then on i was smoking afew tokes of a joint a night, i didn't even want anymore. It was pretty cool just not wanting it.
It only lasted about a month tho, im about the same as i was then now.

Weed isn't necessarily instant mellow. My girlfriend still gets some anxiety from it but now it just really depends on the set and setting. Her having a good time on weed requires good set and setting like me having a good time on acid does.

I always thought it was just part of getting older. My dad and most other adults I knew who smoked said they quit because it started making them paranoid after a certain point.

i went through a similar phase, every once in a blue it happens. my best advise is not to use pot to get rid of anxiety... if it happens again, focus on your breathing or meditate
