Fuck that I've had an anxiety since I was a kid. I had uncontrollable worry over ridiculous things since I could remember. You get yourself in great shape take care of yourself and face life. You learn how to cope with it. I use a bit of xanax once in awhile if I have to give a speech or something that's it. You have to tackle it head on. I think that's what got into lifting weights.

  I know people that have this. It sounds scary. It is sad.

panic attacks are fucking bad.. really fucking bad 

[Marty Champions]

i think theres two types

one type is you panic because your mind worries

the other type, your not getting enough oxygen to your brain because of something in your diet like too much caffiene and start feeling light headed or scared

Funny how you are often recommended to breathe into a paper bag to stop an attack.

Everyone should experience at least one panic attack. Humbling.

i was getting them towards the end i stopped smoking weed

i also got them when i did too much brewers yeast

and drinking too much coffee and not enough food will do it

i think being in diet mode sets the tone for  panic attack as well, i rmember being very lean about 2008 dieting hard but i couldnt be anywhere with flourescent ligghts or id get dizzy and feel faint, the only time i would not feel faint would be when i would eat something

Weed gives me horrible panic attacks. Debilitating panic attacks. I don't understand how people function on it.

Been there, and breathed into a bag after a few late night party sessions. The funny thing is, about 20 minutes later when it passes, you go right back to it. I had a bad one where I thought I was having a heart attack. Too much booze, weed, coke, and adderal in one night.

My nephew once had one of those debilitating panic attacks while eating weed brownies.

I had to drive upstate to his best friend's home to both calm him down and get him to vomit.

It was one of the scariest things I have ever seen, especially since he kept urging me to call an ambulance, because he needed to get to a hospital immediately.

After he vomited, things got much better.

Definitely eating too much weed will fuck you up. Smoking it is another story. Handle your shit rookie bitches

yeah people like to call that an "anxiety attack" when in reality you were about to die

so many of us should feel lucky to be alive after all the shit weve put in our bodies

This.  Had one that was off the scale.  Several episodes of lesser intensity.  It's pretty common.

Anxiety and a panic attack are the reasons I quit a weed smoking habit.  Toward the end I often wondered what the fuck was the point of smoking it when the anxiety overtook the five minutes I felt good.

Yup and once you get a bad panic attack from it that will creep into your mind again and again. It's almost impossible to enjoy it again once this happens. Unless you balance it with a good amount of alcohol or some kind of benzo. It's to bad because I love the way it smell looks and everything about it.

  People close to me have them. This is why I am sad.

This is exact how I feel. It got to where every few times I'd smoke, I'd geek out, thinking I'd be the first to ever have a heart attack from weed. I said, screw it, and quit smoking.

but you/I sure do miss it
