I am posting this to see if anyone knows how to smoke weed and not have a panic attack. I have been smoking weed for a little time now, and 9 times out of 10 it gives me a panic attack. My eyes start to feel really weird, everything (including me) starts moving in slow motion. I start to feel scary things in my body (veins pulsing, head throbbing, fast heartbeat, etc). I don't think that this should be happening to me everytime I smoke weed. Only two times did weed make me feel normal. I took about 2-5 hits and it just made my eyes low, I was very hungry, and I would laugh at random shit. I don't think this is normal and I want to be able to smoke weed and feel like everyone else does. How do I do this? And please don't post telling me to not smoke weed because I will do it regardless. All answers are greatly appreciated.

Try smoking less, or a different kind.

Some of those affects are normal. Slow, low eyes, laughing, hunger; all normal. The other stuff might be due to the minor paranoia which is a side effect, and you could be consuming yourself with that too much. If you concentrate on things in your body, you feel it more. Just try to relax.

this used to happen to me too... definitely try smoking less, you need to build up to it. Most nights I'll only have like 2 or 3 tokes, which will get me at a cozy level of high : )
Just relax and don't think about it.. laugh with your friends, watch a movie, or something. Don't just sit there and think about it.

I've only once had a panic attack from smoking weed,
it would of happened anyway but it was more exagerated because of the weed. I cant handle enclosed spaces.

getting hungry and laughing at random shit is normal. The panic attacks may definatly be from smoking too much weed or smoking out of a device that gets you too high. What do u smoke out of try smoking joints or out of a pipe if your smoking out of a bong, aluminmum cans are bad for you too. It could be your smoking way too intense weed also...good luck and have fun, oh and yes, weed is a gateway drug no matter what you think. Sometime in the future you will try something else..

Does that mean it increases anxiety for you when you smoke weed?  

It sounds like you're really sensitive to the 'hallucinagen' aspect of it, and that the sedating effect isn't kicking in. I think you should stop. Are you prone to panic attacks in normal, sober life?  

You can try different varieties if you really want.. but sounds like a bad idea to me.

Edit: Or take less like others said but I dunno why you'd start off that high if less did any good..
