Panic Attacks??

Correct, smoke as much as you want to.
Eat balanced, 3 meals a day, drink water on a regular basis.
When I get anxiety or anxious I often notice excess energy in me making my heart race.
Exercise 1 time a day, even if it means walking to your smoke shop to get some cigs. (most of the time exercise is all you need)
Make sure your getting 6-8hours of sleep a night.

As I was talking about when you focus on your heart your heart rate rises and gives you more anxiety. Anyone who smokes weed will experience increased heart rate, but the mental trip is what tells you something is wrong inducing anxiety.Try doing breathing exercises right after taking a toke, 2 seconds of breathing in, and 4 seconds of breathing out(this will slow your hearth rate down because it tricks your body into thinking that there is less oxygen in the air).

Also you mentioned having anxiety 2days after using marijuana, sounds like minor withdrawal symptoms(usually marijuana doesn't have those). Try meditating for a few minutes on the days you get anxiety, also your self talk effects the overall quality you have in life. Try changing any negative thoughts or self talk into positive and motivating self talk.
I would only suggest pills if there is no way out of your distress, imho pills make you weaker when you get to that point in life when you need alot of discipline to stay emotionaly fit(break ups, family problems, money problems, pets dying, ect). I don't take medication for anything unless its an anti biotic or weed.

For a natural alternative to prescriptions such as Adderall try sativa, alternative to Xanax try hybrid strains, for an alternative to Oxycotin try indica.

Sativa's cerebral, euphoric effects are described as energetic. Helpful remedy for patients with depression, appetite loss, and A.D.D.

Indica's effects produces heavy sedative effects. Helpful remedy for patients with insomnia, pain, and anxiety.
Marijuana is medication and if its not helping maybe your not taking it right. With any pill that is perscribed you need to take it on a regular basis to have it in your system 24hrs a day(taking a pill in the morning and before bedtime). So an other thing I would suggest is to limit your intake so that you can have an even high throughout the whole day(smoking a bowl or two every 1-3hours) for a good number of days. Try to avoid smoking 2-3grams in one sitting then not having weed for an other couple days(My anxiety increases when I don't smoke on a normal basis).

EDIT-
On top of everything I said, I think human relationships help alot with anxiety issues. Hang out with friends more often(high or sober). Building friendships and socializing can heal our soul.

There is no proof pot brings out permanent mental illness. It may, but connection and causation are different things. Northern Lights is indica dominate, but has sativa in it. I would go for a pure indica. Maple Leaf Indica, Ancient Afghan are 2 I am growing.

Regardless of panic attacks and smoking to help with it I think you should get advice fro your doctor. Mine knows I smoke and has no prob with it. It's nice to get a professional opinion. I let my doc know everything I take.

Just quit dude. Doesn't matter what strain it is, I wish people would STFU with that crap. Don't smoke when going out or quit altogether if you have to, pot's not for everyone.

Pills are what the government want us as their rats to take... weed is the best for many types of healt issues and I know when I smoke Purpple Kush I don't have it.. i also tried M.J. pills but it's just not the same as smoking period.

Your tolerance is probably just lowered man, If I tried to smoke a joint to myself after a month of not smoking i'd be blown off my ass and probably trippin balls too.
Look up shit about your cb-1 and cb-2 receptors in your brain and THC and THCV, some weeds play different roles doing different things.
cb-1 receptors being activated are usually responsible for more psychoactive effects. THCV doesn't activate these receptors .
instead it blocks the cb-1 receptors and just bonds with your cb-2 receptors like regular THC..

... ehh but i'm a newb what do i know.

heres a good strain guide from TGA, subcools company I think.

Im growing some northernlights too, if you grow it right that shit should get you tripping.
Northernlights is one of my favorite strains, next some OG and probably some Master Kush, and Green Crack are all some bomb ass strains that hit smooth as f. My favorite out of 150+ strains that i've tried.

I just loved the days where i could smoke it and always feel fine afterwards. I would love to go back to them days and I hope i will soon! These panic attacks are only recent, maybe they will go after 3 months. Fingers crossed!
i to get panic attacks.i have been put on paxil and i dont get them anymore and i still smoke. no issues. ive had the attacks for years. i dont like having to be on pharmaceutical drugs but it works fine and i can stil smoke i belive the panic attacks are caused by a chemical imbalance the paxil fixes that.
