Sorry to hear you had a bad experience.

I have a friend who also had horrible episodes due to his anxiety. You'd think it'll help you relax but it doesn't work the same for everyone. He told me he felt paranoia and was so scared and alone because people were not helping him at all. They just found it funny.

As bad as it gets, just try to wait for the effect to come down as the drug exit your body. And definitely, I'd recommend you not to try that drug again. That same friend I am talking about tried more times hoping it was a one-off and it always had the same bad experience. For now, try to stay away from any other drugs so it doesn't mix.

Remember to breathe in and hold it a bit before releasing to regain control of your breathing. Once your anxiety goes down the headaches will probably disappear. Keep your self with plenty of water and don't starve yourself.

Let us know how it works for you.

Using weed one time isn't going to do all that to you, but you may have felt yourself going into a downspin and it made you want to get high to try to deal with it. I hope you feel better soon regardless and can find the help you need.

Around 10 years ago I started getting what I assume were panic attacks from smoking weed. I had smoked for years without any sort of attacks. I'm not sure if marijuana causes anxiety disorder or if it just brings it out in someone who is already at risk for whatever reason.
