Panic attacks during drug use.

JWH-018 was amazing in its ability to induce panic in me. I am not prone to panic attacks otherwise.

Freebaseable panic IMO...
 
As ive gotten older Ive found that almost every type of drug causes me panic attacks. I guess this is a good thing though, sense this has started I have almost strictly limited myself to opiates, weed and occasional benzos and really don't have the desire to do anything else. When I was younger I would try anything and everything and now I just think these panic attacks are a natural way of my body telling me I shouldn't be doing most of the drugs I used to do anymore.
 
First - I have anxiety disorder and frequent (less lately) panic attacks regardless of if I'm on drugs or not. HOWEVER, I've had drug induced panic attacks on the following: Weed laced with 'something' (I have no idea. *Note* I had taken 8 Ripped Fuel diet pills that day), weed on various 'other' occasions where it was just super strong weed, in these cases clonazepam 1mg helps me out a little bit. Also, the 2nd time I did coke I had a horrifyingly lengthy panic attack. Also, methadone as well as a combination of oxycodone and adderall (70mg + 95 mg, respectively).

No doubt, more to come.
 
the first panic attack I ever had (mild) was an hour after I'd taken 40mg cyclobenzaprine. I started feeling really weird and smoked a bowl, which made me even more anxious. The next day I experienced the same feeling while high on 30mg methylphenidate snorted at a concert, which really freaked me out, I was also really really baked at the time.

I've never had a full on panic attack sober, every time I've been on a stimulant without benzos in the mix, except for the first time.
 
I get panic attacks from cannabis sometimes, but it's usually always my fault type of thing. Something wrong in my life that sets off a panic attack while stoned. If I'm perfectly content and happy then I'm totally fine when stoned.

My worst ever panic attack was on mushrooms. It was only my second time, (the first time I only ate a gram) I was alone and I ate waaaay too much. My friend was supposed to trip with me but he ditched so I just though "oh well, more for me" So I ate somewhere around four or five grams. I felt AMAZING at first, crazy hallucinations I'd never experienced before and tons of happy energy. But it all went downhill very very fast.

I started hearing weird noises and I couldn't pinpoint where they were coming from. My hallucinations slowly became more and more menacing, like I saw shadows of other people in the house and I became extremely paranoid. Then I heard one loud bang and totally freaked out. I started thinking "oh my god, this is what a bad trip is" and totally lost it. I ended up on my couch curled in a blanket terrified for the rest of the trip. I don't even know what I was scared of but it was intense.

I later found out the noise was my fridge kicking on. lol

hahah bro when im at my house alone and on any kind of drugs the fridge kicking on ALWAYS gets me. i turn around real quick and charge in, ready to bust the fool whos trying to break in my house lmao.
 
my first panic attack was from weed..but i also think amphetamines that i had taken earlier in the day contributed to it. i thought i was stuck in a "scary evil world" and thought "oh my gosh im trapped in a bad trip" ha or something like that. i thought i was dying because my heart was racing so fast. i tried to talk to my friends but it felt so hard to talk then to make the whole experience worse the cops busted in the party i was at with drug dogs and stuff and the whole time i kept the same emotionless look on my face but inside my head i was freaking out thinking i was going to pass out or freak out and start screaming. i just didnt want to look dumb infront of everyone haha
 
Pretty sure i was on the verge of a panic attack today. Smoked some meth last night and fell asleep this morning for a hour and was jolted awake from anxiety. It was bad. i started freakin out. Actually cried which is weird. I didnt know what to do. I called my friend and he was nice enough to come get me. I think it was a combo of the meth and lack of sleep and food for almost a week. Glad its over
