> I personally don't get panic attacks. It tends to help my anxiety. However, most of the stuff I get is locally grown with a purported high cannibidol to THC ratio. If you're getting so called "street" marajuanna. It is grown to get you hooked with a high THC content. More paranoia, and possably more panic attacks.

> Unfortunately marajuanna can vary greatly from source to source. Some people might have a very bad experience based on something that was altered or laced (with PCP or something). Not good!
>I should have medical MJ, but at least my husband does, and we get ours from a "store". We at least know what kind we're getting and we know it hasn't been tampered with. I had some stuff from the street that was dipped in formaldehyde. I knew because I got a raging headache and body aches. It's happened twice actually. I don't think I've ever had any laced with PCP, but PCP apparently doesn't last through burning (from what I understand). It's usually only a problem if you eat it, and I generally don't eat it. I do not know if I've ever had it laced with coke. I'd imagine I might have gotten a panic attack from that.
Legally (at least by the state) we could grow a few plants, but we don't really have anywhere to grow them where people wouldn't see them. That's one way to be absolutely sure it's pure. Something I've noticed is that I'm more likely to feel anxious smoking a more sativa blend as opposed to a more indica blend. Right now I have some almost straight indica, and it relaxes me a lot. Zero anxiety on it. If it lasted longer and wasn't so socially unacceptable, I'd just use that and no xanax. Oh well. Maybe sometime in my lifetime...
