I used to have panic attacks when I was younger and haven't really smoked strong marijuana before but will be soon so I hope I don't have a bad experience.

its not realy bad experiances... as such its more mind over matter if you think your having a bad time.. you will have a bad time... sometimes someone will say something that triggers my worries... like did you hear that... and then i cant sleep all night because i can swear i hear people walking around my bed and looking right into my face when im asleep.. it makes me not want to open my eyes... just in case lol ..
but thats only when i smoke an eight in a joint fast

weed and anxiety is a mighty interesting topic, especially if you have anxiety issues, which i do
the funny thing is MJ can help anxiety and can also drive you into the full fledged panic attack
never got to the point of panic, just an unpleasant edgy feeling
so far, an indica has been on the helpful side, more calm than edgy
but i have had those special sativa's that are magic on anxiety, just not sure what they were, just bag weed

anyone know a good site explaining exactly what it does to your brain and body?
i was so fucked up one night i got into one of those loops of thoughts which i couldnt escape.. pissed me right off because iw anted to sleep ... i started thinking about what its doing to my brain right now..
i think in the end i decided being reall really stoned is how i would feel if i was bleeding to death ...

bullshit i know but still its funny what you come up with some times..

i heard it gets in between cells and slows thinking and short term memory down... causing that jumpy feeling as if your missing frames.
ever tryed taking a shower really high... its so wierd... washing my hair felt amazing.. and when i moved it was as if i blacked out every 10 milliseconds in a second..everything was jumpy hmmmmm

don't have a particular site, but the not sleeping sounds like me
sativa's give me wicked insomnia, thinking, thinking, thinking
they just don't agree with me in the evening, now indica's are much better at night, they help me sleep
 
I would note that the people I've noticed having anxiety problems after smoking are either "firstish" timers or smoking really fresh stuff for the first time. CBD's vs THC. The advice I'd like to give to people that have anxiety issues, myself included, is: "Whatever happens, your going to deal with it." That is a good antidote to one of the major components of anxiety, the cyclical effect of worrying about the immediate future.
