Dangerous?

So I have quit smoking in quite a while. Yesterday I took a blow from a Joint and it felt great. But sometimes when I smoke I feel like shit. I get anxiety. Is it still save to smoke? I have lowered my smoking habit quite a lot. I used to smoke everyday. help..

yeah its still completely safe, its not like ur goin to die, ur just scared maybe nervous over getting caught or something, down let ur guard down but try to relax and enjoy the bud...the rest will take care of itself

Hey Ichi,
I used to get the anxiety too. Mostly when I ran out. Sleeping and eating became hard with-out. Not to fear though, getting clean was step one. Now aim to control yourself with it. I find its very easy to want to giggle and be happy all day every day. That will get you no where though. I've modified my habits to suit this pitfal. By staying clean from waking till work is through(5PM for me) then taking a toke or two and eating dinner. One or two more tokes after dinner then just relax. I have party's here and there with more smoking but then take a day or two to stay straight and resume the norm. This also saves lots of money.

Do relaxing things when you smoke. Take a warm shower, read, just close your eyes and listen to music, make some cookies, play your playstation/xbox/wii, stuff like that. I always end up locking all my doors and stuff when I smoke at home. It just makes me feel safer.

I've read all these stories with people turning insane and hearing voices etc etc. Guess im just a little paranoid.. Or maybe not..

Ahhhhhhh...........Reefer madness. someone get me a piano!!!!!! :jointsmile:

Those are classic government bullshit stories. It's Reefer Madness I tell you. "If you smoke "skunk" you'll go crazy and kill your friends and family!" Or how about this classic, "Smoking causes people to become schizo and bipolar!". Don't believe the hype.

Lol, well I was thinking more about Erowid. When I dropped pot I began to get anxiety.
Well I prolly be fine enough. Dunno just a little confused

rebgirl420 Has this nailed. Our governments hype has driven these paranoia's into our brain.

Exactly, and its very one sided. From Kindergarten to 12th grade we are fed anti druh rhetoric. Starting from things such as red ribbon week to turn your back to drugs days. We are given pamphlets, speakers come to our school, we have homework on it, we watch tv commercials on it. It goes on and on and on.
