  • It's called an anxiety (or) Panic attack. I have them, especially when I smoke weed. I smoked from the ages of 14 to 21(Didn't develop Panic attacks til 21.) I'm 29 now and still ocassionally smoke. I take Benzodiazapines to counteract the anxiety and just get the high. I doubt you have access to those.

    E.g. Xanax, Valium, Ativan, Klonapin.

    They tell your body(brain) to relax. They are a minor sedative. They are on the narcotics list in the US. Some states are more lax about handing them out than others.

    If you really want to smoke Weed convince a doctor you need them or find someone to buy off the street.

    Otherwise. Don't smoke Weed.

    • Hey, combining valium/xanax etc with anything else is not a good idea because the effects are unpredictable: I reckon he's having enough problems with the weed without adding other stuff.

      I'm surprised valium is still available in the US, it's known to have really bad side effects and withdrawals if used for any length of time because it's addictive. Drs here (Aus) now prescribe temazepam instead, which is supposed not to be anywhere near as harmful: I wouldn't know because I only take it very occasionally for insommnia or migraine, plus painkillers if the latter.

      • Yes they are addictive. But lets not get carried away. It's not opiates.

        The effects of combining benzos with weed is not at all dangerous. Except for what I thought was obvious, that narcotics are addictive. Unless you're a retard and overdose on pills you'll be 100% fine, in fact the entire purpose is to take the panic attack away, which of it in itself is dangerous as it gets you hyperventilating, heart racing/palpitations, high blood pressure, dizziness and fainting.

        • Well fair enough I guess, I'm just a little wary about adding another drug to counteract "side" effects of original one, not much different to mainstream pharmaceuticals, is it?

          • Me neither, but if the OP really wants to smoke weed without having anxiety I'm offering him what I appears to be the only option that I can see.

            I don't usually provide warnings I'm not the Surgeon General. :X

            • Fair enought, but I'll bet OP would take more notice of warnings on here than anything the Surgeon General said!

              • LOL true. Who wouldn't. Your concern for other people is admirable though. Props to you.

                Btw you think Valium is bad to still be legal in the US. Look at the opiates US doctors hand out.. Oxy Contin, Lortab, Norco(stronger Oxy Contin) just to name a few.

                It don't matter as long as it makes the pharma. companies rich.
