Hello, I had my first anxiety attack after I smoked marijuana for the first time in two years last Friday. I have been having some similar symptoms for the past week and I was wondering if this is common after a bad trip and will gradually cease and go away, or is it serious and consult a physician? I was on Lexapro for about 8 months and stopped taking it 9 months ago and I have never really had any problems with panic attacks or depression like what I'm experiencing now.

i have just started to experience panic attacks as well.if you smoke marjuana 2 years ago i highly doubt that is why you are experiencing these sypmtops which you think may be panic attacks.if you are stressed or thinkin bout something to hard that could have more to do with it....or stress build up.but i doubt the marijuana has much to do with it
