Hi everyone, I'm new here. I've been smoking for about 4 years now, but only heavily this last year. I would smoke every morning when I woke up and every night.

I started to have anxiety attacks when I was around anybody I did not know well on a personal level. It got so bad I couldn't even walk into a gas station to pay for gas (I had to have a friend do it for me).

I did a little research and found that this fear of people, sociophobia, is starting to become pretty common. It took me a while to figure out it was related to the amount of pot I smoked.

I've stopped smoking pot and this problem is already clearing up. I haven't had an attack for about a month now.

I just wanted to post this as sort of a warning that pot affects everyone very differently and this was just the way it affected me. I still can smoke on occasion if I'm with some close buddies, but I can't ever let it get back to that point of every day, all day.

Thanks.
