i have no idea if i went into anaphylactic shock, or if i just had a panic attack. i am 17, and have smoked weed about 4 times before, with no negative effects. when this happened, i took a few hits from a joint, waited a bit, then took a hit from a pipe. as soon as i expelled the smoke from the pipe, my heart started beating really fast, and i felt like i could hear it. also my throat felt like it was closing up, and i immediatly started drinking as much water as i could, thinking it would keep my throat open. i went through about 4 bottles of water, and after about 2 hours, my heart rate returned to normal and the sensation in my throat went away. there were no other symptons. this has happened to me once before about a year ago, and this was the first time i have tried it again since. i have no idea if im allergic and suffered an anaphylactic shock, or was i merely paranoid and suffered a panic attack? i also have very mild asthma ps. this has happened a third time, my mom drove my friend home while he was reeking of dank, and i smelled it. i was terrified that my mom would smell it, and i exhibited the same symptons for about an hour. Allergies, or anxiety? is it safe to do it again will i experience the same symptons? and dont tell me pot is bad i know it is i just want a straight answer
