anxiety and marijuana
    #7383452 -

Hey i have a quick question, i've been smoking pot pretty heavily for about a year now, at least once a day but usually two or three times. Over the summer i started having anxiety problems and every once in a while i would have panic attacks but lately its been getting very bad to the point where it is hard for me to even leave my house with out having a panic attack. I haven't smoked in about 4 days and I was wondering if stopping smoking would help at all or should i just continue smoking. Also i was wondering if marijuana could have caused my anxiety problems.
thanks

I'm actually about 15 days into taking a break from heavy heavy marijuana smoking for about the past 3 years. I've been suffering from anxiety for a year plus but used mj to help with my depression / boredom. I quit smoking as well as the occasional pills, added a decent workout regiment and a better diet and I feel fucking great to be honest. I've been able to actually carry on half way decent conversations, have more motivation, and just feel better overall. I still have some anxiety but its not even close to as bad as it was. I'd say put down the pipe. It's not easy at first but as time passes it only gets easier. Good luck man, good luck.

yes, this problem seems to be occurring more and more (or maybe people are just being more open about it). cannabis has either caused or brought out anxiety in me, but I'm at a point where I'm anxious in social settings whether I'm high or not, and at least if I'm under the influence I don't care as much about the people around me

note: I can't completely 'blame' cannabis for my anxiety, as within the last two years I've taken somewhat massive amounts of psyches as well which for a while messed me up pretty bad

Heavy cannabis use does this to alot of people, as evidenced by those who responded. You did the right thing by stopping smoking.

i used to get anxiety aswell no matter what i took the only thing that never was e's but coke any phycs and cannabis this started happening after around two years of taking substances and cannabis really seemed to bring it out so my way around it was to drink alcohol prior to taking a drug worked for 6 months then id get it real bad on the come down next day sort of thing i stopped all the drugs for a couple of years and it stopped never had it since but i only drink occasionally now and aint interested in the class A any more and my smoking is a lot more pleasant and the last time i done acid was fine though it was not a very nice trip in itself and im waiting to do mushrooms again soon hopefully. the thing i have found is that im a lot happier in my self now and my mind is a lot stronger and im a bit more straightened out now compared to my troubled teenage years of drug missuse and fighting since ive met my girlfriend my life has changed so its all happy for me but ill advise looking at every aspect of your life cos anxiety and stress can come from the strangest thing and can make you feel real shit as you know ,,when i was 20 i was using so much coke that i didn wanna leave the house and that grew on me untill the opposite effects were coming from the drug weird but truly wonderfull and it makes you stronger once you come through it good luck hope some of that can help, peace

I get this. Marijuana used to be a brilliant escape for me. I was actually able to relax and put important things in a proper context and not worry about them all the time (little things too). But after a while, marijuana just seemed to enhance those worried feelings so I've laid off it.

Stopping won't hurt you, not sure why you even have to ask if that is a viable option. Find a new vice maybe, I hear alcoholism is popular.

Yeah thats the same thing that happened to me, i used to do it to forget about these fears but now it has only made them worse. I didn't think I would ever say this but i'm going to stop smoking. Maybe ocasionally i'll still spark up with some friends but i think ill go for a solid month without smoking and see how it goes. thanks for all the advice from everyone

also i have one more quick question, me and three freinds are getting half an ounce of shrooms tomorow, an eighth for each of us. My anxiety has decreased a little and if i need to ill take .25 mg of xanax to help my panic attacks. Do you think this anxiety would have a bad effect on my trip or the trip would make my anxiety worse. I was thinking about taking .50mg of xanax before i eat the shrooms, then having another .50mg on me just incase my anxiety kicks in, i don't really like taking pills but they work. Do you think this would be a good idea

Ive noticed this same problem but with other effects thinking that theres somebody inside my head in-fact last night was one of those nights i found that its just my mind and i have a body kinda weird but it works for me. I started to have serve panic attacks where id shake very bad and just wanted to be normal/sober. I still love pot and shrooms but now it seems that i use them more as a way to go to sleep or clear my mind(not smoking my self stupid, maybe a few hits here and there) this helps me achieve being high but not so high i freak out in fact i think that it help with it.

I also noticed that when i quit for three weeks and took my first hit i got very f***ing high so i things began to bend and i saw tracers but it wasn't like shrooms i knew i was high but still very intense.

Yeah well i'm afraid that i might have a panic attack while tripping, i've gotten them before when i was very high and it was terrible, i'm afraid it could be even worse on mushrooms. I would only take the xanax if i really needed to and just wanted to feel a little more sober and stop the anxiety

that is what i fear aswel, but next time i trip i wont be high and consume only the mushrooms after fasting for 6-12 hours.
I heard theres some bi-polor or Anti-psychotics pills that will stop you from tripping Thorazine is one i believe. This is what they give you if you go to the hospital and your having a bad trip shrooms or acid it blocks dopamine.(correct me if I'm wrong). but before you go taking these do some research of course. By the way i believe that Xanax would help alot, i crushed one up and snuffed it for faster results and i was feeling pretty good it was only .25mg though.
if you do find the names of those pills hit me back I'm looking and cant seem to find anything but i did find them once but they where a shit load of money like 250USD for 25.

Mushrooms are great for anxiety. They show you that YOU are not just the surface worries and emotions, that you are an important piece of god sharing in the beholding of creation.

Pot clouds you up so badly, so its difficult to realize that petty things don't matter. It confuses you.

I'd recommend you stop smoking. Have a hit or two at random parties, if someone offers.

Go into the trip without xanax. You don't need the xanax. Pot is MUCH more likely to cause a panic attack than mushrooms, seriously. The threat of a bad trip is way overblown. As long as you pay attention to set, setting, and dose, bad trips don't happen.

Tough times can happen on mushrooms, but they are ALWAYS valuable lessons, leaving you much better and happier for them. Go into the trip with healing in mind.

i would have to say mushrooms are a great drug...but i have had a buddy who went absolutely crazy one time, straight up fucking nuts. Tried to drown himself, another friend and I had to save him and he then in turn started to throw blows at us cuz he thought we were trying to keep him from figuring out what its like to die as if he could come back right after he died or something.

Man ive had the same problem aswell , Pot is ok for recreational use , however indulging yourself in life and being stoned 24/7 deff has its negative effects , it made me focus on all the bad shit that was going on in my life, making me jump from negative thought to another , fast , mind thinks about way too many things in too short of a period . was worse at night for me how about you ? like when trying to go to bed... was almost scared to fall asleep, i was smoking a quarter a day when i was down on the coast this past year and started having extreem anxiety and panic attacks , always triggered by smoking , however i was also starting to have them even when i wasnt high , this was corrected by quitting , takes some time but itll go away once u quit , i had to take 4 - 5 shots of liquor at night to be able to lay down aswell as put a good movie on to keep my mood a happy one, and if i didnt fall asleep by the end of the movie id have to drink more because the panic attck would start again , id wake up in the morning to an instant panic attack , think i was dieing , check my pulse, freak out , try puking , thought someone was poisoning me or sumthing because i felt like this, quit smoking , moved up to georgia , no more anxiety or panic attacks , started smoking pot again , and now im having some mild anxiety and an occasional panic attack , best advice i can give is quit smoking it. That works. about the xanax and mushroom question , if that makes you more comfortable go ahead and take half a bar with the mushies , it WONT kill your trip like these clowns claim . only keep ya calm . and yes there are drugs that will bring you out of a bad trip , its call benzo's aka tranquilizers and im sure you could figure out why they would calm you down so much..

well seeing that you said taking a half a bar will kill this guys trip and not to worry about anxiety you do sound like a clown, You try having a panic attack during a mushroom trip , its not an enjoyable experience... at all and your neglecting this guys well-being and potential health hazard of mixing mushrooms with adrenaline.. and tell me why im a clown for saying Benzodiazepines will bring you out of a bad trip? they damn near put your ass out cold , so they actually kill any adrenal function going on. So how do you assume Xanax will "kill" the effects of Psilocybin .. ?
