You said yourself there, punk, i take it you mean skunk dosen't agree with you, just lay off it if you don't like what it does to you.
Does mental health problems run in your family or what?
I've never had such problems that you talk about, i just get stoned and that's it.
It's the sensation of being out-of-body, kind of like an anaesthetic. It's caused mainly by a quick surge of adrenaline and your anxiety receptors igniting the "fight or flight" response. It's a side affect of the over induced amount of adrenaline and your fight or flight response.
The fight or flight response is your body's was of instantly combatting a dangerous situation. Since you aren't normally in these, the added adrenaline can push your anxiety levels too far and make your brain think it's time to fight or flee. That then triggers the side affects "out of body" experiances, panic, confusion, feeling as if one is about to faint, or go crazy. Don't worry much about it. Just take some calming exercises and, when in doubt, go see your GP if you think it's that serious.
I'm sure there is something that can be done, and the more you think about it the more stressed you will get - it is always better to know because then you can deal with it.
I do think it would be a good idea not to smoke as it sounds like it will make your symptoms worse.
Oh, and I hate to hassle you, but please please don't use text speak - the reasons why are at the bottom of TheSite's Good Manners Guide. Cheers!
see your doc ...it could be something that can and should be nipped in the bud.
lay of the chemical enjoyments as well ...at least till you have talked to a pro.
Not entirely wise advise.
As for it still being in the body, yes it is, but no its not active. Cannabis is fat soluble so it leaves the body very slowly taking up to 6 weeks to leave fully.
