I use to smoke weed daily. I kind of miss it, though. I stopped smoking weed, because my life took a huge unexpected turn. I ended up getting bad anxiety attacks, which lead me to bad highs. I would get paranoid and trip balls over the weirdest shit, so I stopped. I think I'm ready to start up again.

I know sometimes with weeds it's all in your head when you get bad highs, so I hope I don't continue the path of bad highs and unnecessary paranoid thoughts, and can control myself when starting up again.

Drugs have never mixed well with me. Even drugs given to me by my doctor. I'm one of those weird people where drugs never make me feel good, but make me feel weird and the opposite. Lmao.

Anyways, that was my quick and worthless topic about smoking up again.

I was unaware that weed highs were referred to as "trips".

Well, I guess I shouldn't of used the word trip, but using the words trip balls sounded about right. lmao

Try different types of weed maybe that will help? I know that each type gives you a different sort of high.

For me Purple used to be the best to call me down... once I took Xannax with it when I was really stressed and freaking out and it calmed me down and put me to sleep.

If you're starting up again I recommend not smoking so much or at least at the beginning anyway because it will just cause your attacks to come back before you realize, well, most likely, I've seen it happen to a friend of mine I used to know. Just be careful.

I was thinking that same thing. I can tell you what, though. Being high and having an anxiety attack at the same time is not fun at all. For me at least. You feel like crawling out of your body, which is why I stopped. I'm going to take it slow, and not smoke as much as I use to. Mostly at night to help me free my mind and sleep at night.

Is it possible you got bad weed?
I know when I have shit weed the high is shit...
A lot of times I would have a bad high if I was around really depressed and fucked up people.. I don't know why..

I have never had a bad enough high were I can't tell myself "It's just cause I'm high" and calm the fuck down:P

I've only ever had one bad high, and that was because I took alot of pills and alcohol with it. I don't think it would be best do start doing it daily again, until you're used to it again really. But if you get bad highs, smoke it less until you're head is used to it again.

Tons of things can make you anxious when you blaze.

The number one thing is your comfort level.  Are you comfortable with marijuana?  Comfortable with the people you are with?  Comfortable in the chair your sitting in?   If your uncomfortable with anything in the setting, weather physical or psycological, you can get an anxious high.

Also, the weed itself could do it.  A strong sativa will provide you with a surging head high, that could feel enough like anxiety to actually make you anxious.  Also, low quality weed will give you bad high's in general.
