Marijuana Flashbacks/panic attacks?! help me pleasee.?
Okay so about 1-3 months ago(i cant remember the exact time) i smoked weed with my friend for the second time. the first time i had a horrible trip i felt like i was out of my body and my legs felt cold and i was really dizzy, the second time the same thing happened. of course, the trip went away in about 2 hours. its been a while since then, but then i was sitting in class yesterday and i started to feel just like i did when i smoked. i felt extremely light headed and things were moving really weird around me, i got really scared, then it sorta went away and i was fine, but i still feel weird and every once in a while it gets really bad, and its extremely scary. i dont know what to do about it. if anybody can help me get read of this feeling, please HELP. im still young and im really afraid, idk if im phsycing myself out or what…. what can i do????
Sounds like a panic attack. Next time try taking just one hit and then work your way up. Also make sure you are well hydrated and not too warm. Marijuana can be weird if its not something that you do it regularly, exspecially in high doses. As far as know, you cant get flashback from marijuana. If you are not a regular smoker it leaves your system after a few days, a week at the most. If you smoke several times a day for months it can take upto 6 weeks to get out of your system so it is not in your system anymore. Dont be scared you will be fine, the mind is VERY powerful and it is probably just a panic attack. Try keep a little bottle of nerve calming herbs(tinctured) on hand for next time you feel that way without smoking. Valerian root, California poppy, and passionflower are a couple good nerve calming herbs. And again relax and dont be afraid!

You did it to yourself. I don’t respect people who do drugs. It doesn’t only affect you – the buying and selling of drugs affect innocent people who get caught in the crossfire. Maybe next time you do it, it will make you want to jump off a bridge. I wish all druggies would for the benefit to our society.

The first person to answer your question is right. You get… Hi on Marijuana, you do NOT trip! Now if you are really tripping then something extra was in that Marijuana other than just weed.
My advice to you is to stop smoking all together! Seriously, you don’t know if something else was in it or not.
If they are your friend then they will understand if you tell them that it just isn’t for you. Besides after you get real used to smoking weed eventually you are going to want to try something much stronger and that something, might be something that could very seriously hurt you.
Some things just aren’t for some people.
Stop a bad habit before it turns into something else.
Your health is more important!!

perhaps skunk can do that? if hallucinations happen, try a high dose of vitamin b3
anyway, panic is linked to not breathing, and that definitely leads to dizziness. so do the relaxing breathing exercise that my doc taught me. breath in to a count of 5 and out to a count of 7, ten times.
you can also try eft for panic
and learn from it – stay off the grass ;o)

Yes this can be very common. What you experienced is a panic attack. Your mind (brain) can remembered exactly how you felt when that incident occured months before. So what happened was your brain re-called it and you got scared and then boom, a panic attack.

First of all you don’t trip on weed. You get a "hi" it causes a euphoria and eventually dies down. What might be happening with you is your body might be trying to reject it i suggest telling your friends you quit they’ll bust on your for it but eventually they’ll get over it and if they don’t. Find new friends
