A panic attack is a period of intense fear or discomfort, typically with an abrupt onset and usually lasting no more than thirty minutes.

Man all week I've been able to get at least 6 to 8hrs of sleep, and I really thought my anxiety was subsiding, but man I just can't go to sleep tonight. Felt a anxiety attack coming on, because my ears been ringing all week and I can't stop thinking about my panic attack 3wks ago. My psychologist said I have a mild panic disorder, and I don't need meds, but my doctor said believe it or not, "it can be cannabis psychosis", even though I barely smoked that stuff in over 6yrs now. Can a brother just catch a break the last 30 to 40yrs of his life. Ha Ha Ha!! My psychologist and a different doctor said I don't have cannabis psychosis, just thought it was funny that a doctor would say something like that only after talking to me within 5 minutes of meeting me for the first time and prescribed me Zoloft . All in all everybody seems to agree that my panic attack 3wks ago stemmed from too much caffeine. See the only time I've ever had a panic attack was when I was high off some herb, since I haven't touch that stuff in over a yr 1/2 I'm just freaked out that this panic attack with persistent anxiety has come back to haunt me.
Back in DEC of last year i was getting high with my
cousins if i can remember that was the 7th time i was getting
high i was fuck up like completely blown.
The first 30 min were amazing we order Pizza to take care of the musnchies i started hallucinating after that i went straight into panic and i freak out i was so paranoid i laid down it went away. Then came 2 months later and my anxiety came back horribly ended up in the hospital once and in urgent care like 3 times with panic attacks and i dont feel the same....
Imagine u did it longer than i did but i also was taking other meds which might have playd a role but yeah just letting u know
I don't know how to turn them off. I do think anxiety and some paranoia plays a huge part in the panic attacks.
Mine stemmed from a car accident and I had fears of another so being in a car was one trigger.
However I also have social anxiety, from the time I can remember and it has upset my entire life, all 56 years of it.
