Weed and Mental health

I think I am going insane sometimes. My moods change drastically. I can have panic attacks(happened twice so far while I was HIGH AS FUCK).
Should I stop smoking weed or is it something else? Should I just lower my daily smoke amount? Should I just stop wake and baking?
I don't know whats making me this way but it blows.
ALL help is greatly appreciated. I don't know what to do...

1) try cutting back. in the past ive was smoking alot everyday with some good medical weed and i started to get more and more paranoia.
2)take a week or two off from weed. its fun and all but i think its always good to take time off and when you start smoking again the tolerence is alot lower

Weed lowers your histamine by depleting zinc from your brain. Try taking reacted or chelated zinc supplements. When zinc levels in your brain are low, copper may rise to toxic levels, which creates anxiety and paranoia.

Where's your information? I will try this thought because I sometimes experience anxiety when high.

I say yes. What's wrong with being not stoned?

I smoke weed in the morning because I wake up each morning with about 3 hours of morning sickness due to an ulcer. I smoke to relieve my nausea.

If you think it's making you crazy, cut down as much as you can. Easier said than done, but you don't want to develop serious anxiety problems.
You may want to look into calamus root, of all the herbs I've tried it is the best at reducing cannabis' side effects. It greatly reduces anxiety, paranoia, memory loss, and brain fog. In India it is often rolled into joints with cannabis when given to patients. This stuff works amazingly well, I think it is a shame cannabis patients don't know of it's existence.

stopping smoking cannabis has been one of the best things for my mind and body, as much as i don't like saying that, it's true
