hey ollie,
i also suffer from anxiety while smoking weed,it caused me to quit for almost a decade.
anyway i still get the occasional anxiety attack but im finding for me cannabis is becoming a spiritual/meditational activity.
how that affects my use is i only take between 1 to 2 hits then im done
my attacks are seldom now and i have xanax on hand for when they do.
also the above posts about frame of mind/strain are dead on
i stay away from sativa and avoid haze like the plague.
remember that our minds are so strong we can "talk" ourselves into almost anything even dying.
so do the opposite when your not stoned think about how and why u like cannabis and how it helps others in need.also if you dont have much control over the types of weed you get trichrome color also helps you will want amber/red for a more body buzz.
ok i hope i've helped in some small way
:thumbsup:

Marijuana and Anxiety Ive been smoking non stop for about 2 years because of daily stress in my life and marijuan WAS helping but a few months back it caused me to have an anxiety attack, i was just sitting, relaxing and smoking and whamm! I started to get real scared, shake, sweat and couldnt calm down. I sat like that for about 6 hours and when it didnt go away I dragged myself to the ER. My blood pressure was very high and I was trembling an my palms were sweating like crazy, I couldnt focus on anything and Rating: 5
