What you haven't taken into account is the influence of unconcious (or subconscious) thoughts. Even though you may not be consciously thinking about having a panic attack, your unconscious mind may still be influencing the experience that you are having. So I wouldn't necessarily discount the possibility that your fear of having a panic attack is the catalyst (or at least a contributing variable) to these experiences you are having.

As you know these panic attacks can be a terrifying experience and therefore the mind learns to associate these feelings of anxiety with the event that precipitated it (ie. classical conditioning). So why doesnt it happen all the time then? Because although the mind is powerful it still requires the right chain of antecedents to bring it on, and this is where tolerance levels, THC/CDB levels, quantity consumed, strain consumed, current state of mind, environment that you smoke it in etc. come into play.

Although Freud had some truely bizzare and rediculous theories, he was one of the first people to explore the importance of the unconscious mind.
