Im having a weed induced panic attack

I smoked some strong weed and my heart rate is 132 bpm… i’m having a panic attack it feels like. I took 4 MG of Ativan (my bodyweight is 230 pounds) can anyone help me out with some positive words? I need to stop smoking THC.

Sending some (((hugs))). Sorry you’re reacting badly to the MJ.

:heart:

@shutterbug - Thank you!!

Hi @TheCanuk . I’m not sure what positive words to say but it should pass. Just try to relax.

If your heartrate is sustained at 132 bpm maybe your best option is to call an ambulance, just as a precaution. Up to you of course. I would think it would pass on it’s own as long as you can ride it out.

Maybe watch something on TV to distract yourself? I just finished the one and only season of Swamp Thing. It was very good, I’m sad that they killed it after one season.

Better stay with cbd weed if you’re going to smoke weed. I stopped weed in 2018 and never smoked again as it makes me psychotic.

When this happened to me I just had to distract myself for a few hours and it wore off. I hope you’re feeling better by now.

Lots of water and a cold shower usually does the trick!

Seriously man. Don’t create more problems for yourself.

Last time I smoked weed was 11 years ago, and it did exactly that to me.

I hate that I can’t smoke it any more, but I have moved on from it now.

The stuff makes me paranoid and psychotic. I try to stay away from it even though i get cravings. Good that you’re feeling better and maybe don’t do that anymore if it messes with you that bad.

I used to do it from time to time but it really messed with my memory. I didn’t think it was a problem, but then I quit for like 6 months, then tried a tiny bit, and it made me super paranoid… which is crazy cuz paranoia is a symptom I have beaten. Haven’t touched it again since then.

I totally thought it was the sz messing with my memory, but it turns out it was just the weed I was smoking during the time, cuz when I quit I no longer like lost words mid sentence anymore.

Maybe weed doesn’t mix with ap medicines. Not all the time. Maybe that is why your heart beat sped up.(@TheCanuk )
