Why do i have panic attacks after smoking weed sometimes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Balance & the brain: Any psychoactive substance has the potential to disrupt the sometimes delicate balance of neural circuits that need to function well together to maintain stable mood. That can amplify our experience of emotions that otherwise are kept in check. With mj it also is difficult to know exactly what dosage and "additives" may be present. If worried, see an md with expertise in chemical dependency.
