i havent smoke since 4/20 [which also happens to be my birthday], but it's NOT by choice. story time:
a few days before 4/20 i took waaaay too many benadryl [which i had been doing for a while, as an alternate to getting high. DON'T TRY IT] in my french class and it brought on a MASSIVE panic attack. people who heard about it thought i had OD'd. so anyway, it was horrible and stuff, by far the worst panic attack i've ever had. so a few days later it was 4/20. id been smoking weed VERY heavily since the beginning of september, and i'd loved every minute of it. im not going to lie. i. love. weed. so anyway, on 4/20 me and 2 friends bought a sack and went off to smoke it. i took one hit and was kinda anxious, but not too bad. then i took another and just got really freaked out. i kept repeating "everything's gonna be fine" over and over and over, severely irritating my friends. i thought i was fine though, as long as my friends held on to me and we kept walking. we went into a bookstore, but it was hot inside and i felt like i was suffocating so i sat on a bench outside. the 3 of us ended up sitting there for about 2 hours, my friends holding my shoulders [so i wouldnt float away] and giving me simple math problems. i did random multiplication tables for almost 2 hours. i was fine afterwards, but that has never happened to me before, and i havent been able to smoke since. i can just tell it would be bad. i mean, im shaking just TYPING about what happened, and its been 2 months. just wondering if anyone has had any similar experieces.
