Is it normal to feel like ima die when high?

So I've been smoking weed since I was 13 years old, but recently I been having these sort of panic attacks I think they are. I started smoking spice (incess) about 8 months ago because I was on probation and 3 months after smoking straight spice I started feeling like my heart was pounding to fast and started shaking all over and I couldn't breathe right my heart was hurting I was so anxious I felt my heart was just going to give up and I would die right there and all I could have were negative thoughts which made it worse when I smoked just a bowl of spice. Well stopped and went back to smoking bud and all of a sudden I have the same feeling when smoking weed but not as bad cause remember no ones ever died directly from smoking weed but I still feel my hearts pumping to hard and fast and can't breathe right even if im sober. Help me is this normal?

    Weed can't do anything to hurt you physically but it defineatly messes with your head and can cause psychological issues if you use it too much. Sounds like you had a panic attack, one of the many things weed can to to you if you use it too much.

      Definitely this. I've had similar experiences.

    If you have access to a wide range of weed, I recommend an Indica. You are probably smoking a Sativa, which gives one a head high. This head high can fuck people up with anxiety. Indica, on the other hand, is recommended for people who are anxious, it's a more chilled, stoned feeling rather than being high.

      I have thought of this before to this is probably why I prefer bubba kush as my favorite. Thanks for the feedback.

    This is why doctor-patient confidentiality exists. You should probably get yourself checked out.
    Spice is so varied and so new that it's tough to know too much about it and its effects. I've been doing it for a while since I can't find weed in my area, and it's just not as good, and makes me feel more messed up than high.
    However, it's normal for your heartrate to go up when smoking marijuana, and since you're high, you might perceive it differently or get paranoid about it more easily.

    Not sure what spice is? But i found i had the sane problem when i smoked too much cigarettes/weed. My heart would start pumping everywhere and beat like crazy to the point where i could feel it in my throat and i was scared it was gonna burst. Having that experience when youre high makes you even more paranoid about that and is just a bad trip. But the problems continued for months and i started getting worried. Never saw a doctor about it but stopped smoking weed for about 6 months and cut down on cigarettes. Never had that peoblem again, so im assuming that the mix of both those things screwing with your neurotransmission must make your heart go crazy... So likely the mixture of spice and weed is just not good for your body, even if you dont smoke them at the same time it can still have that effect.

    I would advise you to do an ECG with your doctor and check out if your heart is ok to begin with it, if it is, then its just the drugs that must be screwing with it. If its not you might have bigger problems and the drug mix makes it worse..

    To clarify, You got so used to being relaxed and high that when you stopped, you had to adjust to being normal/sober again. I don't know anything about spice, but I can only imagine how rank that stuff is. Clean up and focus on school, you're young. You'll have plenty of time in your twenties to party hard. You only get one chance in k-12 school.

    DO NOT SMOKE SPICE !! IF YOUR GONNA SMOKE , SMOKE WEED !! Spice is not natural, other chemicals and shit are in it. Which makes it not safe. Weed is natural and i think no one has died from it. But spice hasnt even been tested and again it isnt natural. I had one of the most trippyest highs when i smoked spice, i even felt like i was seeing shit and having the same exact experience as you. Its too much for your body to handle. Stick to weed to get high, you dnt gotta worry about that and actually enjoy your high, not hate it.

    Some things should never be smoked. I'm guessing this is a effect of the incense. Stop smoking the incense and go back to weed. See if it helps.

    The effects vary strongly. If it affects you negatively, stop smoking.

    Spice fucked you up sir. I suggest going to the doctor and getting your heart checked out. I am not an expert on fake cannabis, but I do know that nothing can really beat the all natural, somewhat healthy, real thing.
