So Ive been almost an every day toker for a little under a year now, recently I've been getting in wierd irritable and apathetic/lethargic moods and even more recently I've been getting these hour or so long episodes where my whole body feels tense, my brain feels tight or tense, my thoughts race and I get this generally apathetic uncomfortable feeling, I don't panic or anything I usually just get tired and try to wait it out but it's really discomforting.

Anybody ever experience this or know what's wrong?

this happened to me for awhile my advice is dont smoke if all your going to do is sit and think do something when your high and you wont have these problems

Nearly every stoner has experienced this at least once. It's normal. It's also much worse for some people and there's nothing they can do about it. I know from experience buddy. I spent my teen years being a stoner, probably one of the biggest I've ever met ( I've met a LOT ) and one day.. BOOM. completely different effect, anxiety/panic. Of course I thought it COULDN"T be the weed, I loved weed, yet every single time it did the same thing. To this day it still happens, although for some reason i continue to smoke weed most days, but i usually only take one toke at a time now to get the most enjoyable effect, otherwise it happens. Whatever you do don't dwell on whatever you think the problem may be, just slow down.

pot turns evil on everyone at least once.

take a break. it's good for the wallet, tolerance, and mind.

It happens to me all too often these days and is one of the main reasons I don't smoke nearly as much as I used to. I mean, I still smoke every day, but only a few hits at a time.

It's been going on a long time now and I think - think it might have a little something to do with all the opiates and the lithium I take. But I could be wrong.

I just know I don't much care for the anxiety it brings on. I still like smoking pot too much to give it up totally. That and I actually do have a legit medical reason. I use it to get hungry when the opiates and shit make me otherwise too nauseated.

shit, thanks a ton guys, it's relieving to atleast know the root cause, I'll take a break, I've needed to anyways, but this is gonna suck, it's Christmas break soon, ah well whatever. Shits not worth it I hate the feeling.

save it for special occasions. I had vaguely similar effects, so, I stopped smoking everyday. currently, I have not smoked for several months, and I am very much looking forward to a little christmas stoning.:)

come on meta, you like getting teh highz0rz

This is why I quit smoking weed. Occasionally I'll smoke if I have some opiates or benzos in my system. Something to lower the anxiety levels to make it somewhat enjoyable.

Every up has it's down. Nothing can be 100% perfect, not even marijuana like so many of you filthy piece of shit hippies swear by.

I get something really similar to this but only when sober. I will feel bored and tense, my mind won't be able to focus and I'll just be kind of like that until I smoke or just naturally come back to normal.

ProTip: dont think

ProTip: dont think

What a thoughtful suggestion. And yeah I get like this when I'm sober, I realized I just need to excercise my mind.

The only thing close to an anxiety attack I've had always results from my need to hide my smoking. Basically I start worrying my mother or father might be able to smell it or will talk into my room and see my drugs and drug paraphernalia.

This isn't your blog. This is for people to discuss the topic, not things that are close to the topic. Fuck you you stupid fucking worthless waste of god damned monkey shit!;)

hey fuck you buddy

don't listen to that kid. he's a fucking moron

60 year old stoner.Smoked weed all my life.No hard drugs & no bad stone yet.Just the munchies.Oh shit I think i need a twinkie

who is?

The same thing happened to me. I smoked weed everyday for years, and never noticed anything except me being high. About a year ago I realised that I was constantly worrying about things. The problem was that I was getting to lazy to do anything about it half the time. I would be worried about a bill I had to pay, and instead of trying to pay the bill I would smoke weed to try to forget the bill, and I would wake up the next day with the same worries.

Weed isn't as bad as other drugs but it still has side effects. Side effects get worst with the more you smoke, and with the more familiar you are with the side effects. I smoke every once in a while but I usually only take a hit or 2.
