I had a horrible trip on weed and a month later i still feel it

You are not feeling the trip. I believe you might have an anxiety problem, that was in you and came out when you had that trip.
I had it happen myself on a really bad trip of weed and the anxiety came back after that, but not because of the weed.

You are not going to die just for having those feelings, even though it might feel like that. You cant just suddenly die from anxiety.

Common symptoms are fast heartbeat, shake, uneasiness and mostly a loss of "control" where all your world shrinks and you feel different than in a "normal" situation.

On the bright side, don't worry.. many people live with anxiety and overcome it once they learn how to. The most important part is knowing what it is , and what you can do to make it go away. it will ALWAYS GO AWAY with time, thats something that you have to keep repeating to yourself.

When i had my trip and my first anxiety attack, i was shaking on the ground, convulsing, my mouth felt dry like crazy. I really thought i was going to die too.. after learning what it really was and how to control it, it now only happens a lil and when it happens, it goes away fast.

Anyways, I really recommend you see a counselor about it, as it will help you a lot. Don't be ashamed to tell your parents. You dont have to say it was drugs. You can just say you felt like that suddenly because of whatever reason (you got dumped or some shit).

Good luck :)

hey man, the person that had the trip im talking to, hears a fact for you, the chemical in weed THC can stay in your system for 1-3 months, ive gotta tell ya, im 14 and i had a really bad trip but i kept smoking and i kept having them so i stopped and its been about a month and 2 weeks and i still feel it every now and then, its a fucked feeling and i want it to go away, do you feel like everything that happens is a dream and nothings normal? and things are hazy?, i have a friend that smoked so much he got that feeling to and now he is still smoking and now he feels like the bad trip all the time constantly, never again will i smoke weed !!

pyke is right on. I also got great advice from a friend once. He said, "have you ever seen someone freaking out while they take slow, deep breaths?". The answer is no. So, if you feel yourself panicking, just take some deep breaths and it will help you relax.

So,i also had a really bad experience with THC. I never had it with smoking but i had this twice with edibles. The first time inly lasted 4 hours. I thought maybe it was laced with something which caused me to have weird thoughts, delusions, feelings like my mind and body werent connected, my heart was beating so fast, and i just felt completely scared and out of it. The second time was with friends. The second time landed me in an inpatient hospital after the thoughts came back. I was having several panic attacks in a row. I thought i was going to go crazy and become schizophrenic. I also thought i was on a thread for my life that could be cut at any time. Once again i was having irrational thoughts , feelings that i wasnt real, etc. The worst of it lasted a week and a half while they put me on haldol in the hospital.

About a month later, its gone. Im still having a little bit of anxiety, but no more attacks, no more prescribed medicine. I am seeing a therapist and she said she treats lots of people who have had adverse effects to thc. The derealization and depersonalisation is normal with these individuals. It DOES eventually simmer down and you ARENT going to die. I still have a few moments of "not feeling myself" for a few minutes every now and then. But on a scale of 1-10 (worst) i would say its like a 0.5. More uncomfortable than anything. My therapist said sometimes thc can essentially "let the floodgates open" especially if you have any trauma or unconscious anxiety.

To those people who comment that marijuana cant do this, do some research. Hundreds of people have had this experience. It may not be the thc itself, but its definitely a reaction TO the drug. Its usually when someone takes too much for their tolerance level. Just know that it WILL be okay. I found it helpful to keep a journal. I definitely saw the decline in fears and anxiety over few weeks. Looking back also gave me confidence and helped my recovery. I hope this helps! You arent alone. :)

Maybe weed isn't for you or you got laced shit

Don't do it again. It doesn't agree with you.
Had a horrible trip myself in Holland years ago. They have the good stuff there.
NEVER NEVER AGAIN!!!!!

Thanks guys for all of your advice. I failed to mention my biggest problem. Feeling detached and un-real, feeling like I'm not really here, everything seems foreign to me, like from another planet? I'm seeing a counselor, and she's helping but it's not going away.

Bad trips can cause various degrees of post-traumatic stress. Weed shouldn't do that much, but if you're prone to anxiety it could bring on anxiety afterward. Just don't do it again, and maybe go to therapy.

baloney

once, i smoked like a wednesday, i had alot of big exams the next day, and i was so fucking damn high, i was scared as fuck(first thing to not do), i smoked at 7pm and i was in bed at 8pm, then the next day, i was high again, the next day too, it lasted 1month and half, and then, i taked a pill called concerta, and it makes me feel totally normal, ive taked pills like that (concerta and then straterra) for half a year, than, i stopped it and smoked again, (i was ready for the trip) and the next day, i was totally normal. and now, i smoke twice a week, and im perfectly normal, but dont be scared of it, you dont gonna die. ;)

okay, here's how i cured that,

okay, that weed you had right there i WANT!
high for a month:P
but still... weed does not do that to you, you might wanna see a psychologist, atleast check if anything is wrong

Ok guys. it does have to do with anxiety. but you are all wrong. when you consume a large amount of thc, while looking for what its affecting, the second you have a negative thaught it is triggered. this is called a "begginners high". just keep livin it up and itll all be ok :]

When everyone smokes for the first time it affects everyone differently. It could be from huge fits of laughter to zoning out for a grip. Many try weed and dont like the effects only because of the intensity of the feeling. Some experience shortness of breath, fast heartbeating. All of this shit wears off the more you use it.. period. If you give it a chance smoking can enhance everyday life. Most of the greatest sex and everyday events have been while baked out of my skull. But if that shit still happens too you DONT SMOKE WEED. More for me ;).

Stress might be a cause of anxiety, but it's not the only one. It could also be cause by a past experience .In your case, and for me as well, you could be fearing to live the experience that you had with that weed again, now that you know that your body can feel like that.

It could be many things, and the sooner you find out what it is, the earlier you will be able to find a way to calm you down faster.

A very useful tactic for me (recommended by my counselor) is to treat anxiety as an external thing. It will try and make you obey it by changing the way you think. It tries to put unreasonable thoughts in your mind and you believe they are real (believe that you will die, that it will never go, that you will go crazy). And it will also generate physical reactions to try and make you obey (shaking, feeling ants inside you like when your leg is asleep, heartbeat, sweat, etc...). You can take it as a challenge, just say 'bring it on' and do your best to not let it believe the bullshit that goes through your mind. It will ALWAYS go and you will feel much better.

When i am under a big anxiety attack, sometimes i just go to the bathroom and lock the door. Lay down and look up to the ceiling and just breathe. Close your eyes and take ur time. I look myself at the mirror and say 'you can do it!' And it might sound silly but it helps a lot.

Finally, it does feel like noone understands, because it would look really weird for someone to start shaking in the middle of the bus or freaking out right, but a lot of people have anxiety.

Try to not think too much about it and you will see that the more you learn to fight it, the less you will have it.

Good luck and feel free to ask any questions :).

I smoke every day for medical reasons and I've never even experienced a trip. I just feel relaxed and a little euphoric depending on the strain. I guess it's different for everyone though. Is it possible the weed was laced with something else?

Definitely not the weed.
Definitely it is all you.
And I agree with the above posts.
