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.
