Found myself in a pretty terrible place mental health wise for a few years. Every day after work was 20-60mg edibles, a bowl or three, and vaping. I did this with some incredibly toxic people.

I’m back on track with my life now and only smoke occasionally. But now when I get high I just fucking panic. I’m talking one single joint and I’m in full blown stoned panic. It’s not eating junk food and laughing at stupid movies any more. It’s being terrified that everyone hates me and that I’m wasting my life and stressing about climate change the increasingly fascist government. I literally cannot relax when I’m high any more.

Is this a thing that happens? How do I go back to a happy high?

    I stopped smoking for years and started again. I’d say that deep introspection is a very early symptom when you get high the first few times. I have a theory that this is why a lot of people don’t like cannabis: They get an honest look at how they actually act and think, and lots don’t like what they see.
