So today i got out of work and puffed a nice bowl of some sativa. Felt the initial up-lifting energy flow of a nice sativa. Had noticeable increased heart rate. Started to get a slight bit of anxiety and thought to my self, i wonder if smoking more would decrease the little aniety i had, sence not smoking anymore after the first smoke dosnt help any bit. So i packed another and noticeably i noticed my anxiety completely gone. Now the old laughing hysterical high has returned that i have not had in a while due to anxiety.

Maby it's just me but i seem to find that consistant re-smoking after initial smoke mellows out the edgyness sometimes felt when smoking.
 
Maybe your just not smoking enough to start with, therefore giving a threshold effect? I know this is usually the case for me if I smoke 1-.5 cone. Usually 3 will get me fucking blasted.
 
Paranoia/anxiety from pot really depends on how often you smoke. A daily smoker or even a few times a week, probably doesn't make that person have any paranoia or anxiety. I know I don't. BUT someone who smokes only occasionally, will get that paranoia/anxiety heart race thing. Especially if they are smoking good strong pot. I have buddys that smoke occasionally and it is just the opposite for them...if they smoke too much, they bug out, but just one or two tokes is all they need and usually they are good to go, no bug outs.

Quick story...my wife's good friend's husband thought he can handle my weed..blah blah, ya know..the kinda guy that likes to talk shit. Well I packed a fresh bowl of Mongolian Indica and after he took 2 nice pulls and coughed, I told him to chill...well, he didn't listen and took 2 more...we went back into the bar, and about 10 mins later..his wife turns to him and says "..... are you okay?" We look over at him and his face is ghost white and dripping with sweat..he really didn't say much..just mumbled something and looked like he was about to pass out...lol. His wife took him outside and got him some water...he was fine 20 mins later.
 
After what happened last night, I think that I smoked WAY TOO MUCH which caused my reaction... I am generally fine with lower dose MJ but as the dose increases, my anxiety gets bad.

Last Monday, I believe, was the first time I smoked MJ in over a year. Vaped 2 decent hits of Blue Dream and while I noted a little bit of anxious energy, I had a nice good stoning for a few hours, no munchies, and then went to sleep.

Saturday night I vaped some DJ Short Blueberry with a friend and had NO anxiety and in fact a mildy energized and fun high.

When that went away, I grabbed the beautifully-rolled Hashberry joint (this is all MMJ btw, gotta love Colorado), lit it and hit it... first hit, fine... second hit, blasted... third hit... IMMEDIATELY the body high got so intense that I could feel rushing going all throughout me and I attributed this to my heart... this was the WORST panic attack I've ever had and just thinking about it and talking about it brings it back. My pulse was taken twice. 65 the first time and 62 the second (my normal resting is 84) and blood pressure was only 129 and 132 plus I was rolling all over the place... this was like serious panic. I immediately dissolved 2 .5mg Xanax under my tongue which did fuck all, if anything made it worse, so I tossed a milligram of sublingual Kpin in... It didn't help either. I was in fucking hell for an hour and then passed out on the couch.

Now I've got the DJ Short Blueberry and I'm kind of scared to touch it - I forgot about the fact that MJ panic attacks aren't affected by benzos at all...

I've heard though that the only way to get past it is to smoke tiny bits at a time until the tolerance goes up, especially since I haven't eaten chocolate in years either or smoked pot consistently in years.... the CB receptors just aren't used to being activated like that.
 
I would like to think that this is no the case for most people.

Though, if I have anxiety prior to smoking weed, and smoke enough weed, it will help the anxiety after a while,

But, if I get anxiety from smoking itself, smoking more just makes it worse.
