Found myself in a pretty terrible place mental health wise for a few years. Every day after work was 20-60mg edibles, a bowl or three, and vaping. I did this with some incredibly toxic people.

I'm back on track with my life now and only smoke occasionally. But now when I get high I just fucking panic. I'm talking one single joint and I'm in full blown stoned panic. It's not eating junk food and laughing at stupid movies any more. It's being terrified that everyone hates me and that I'm wasting my life and stressing about climate change the increasingly fascist government. I literally cannot relax when I'm high any more.

Is this a thing that happens? How do I go back to a happy high?

Didn't see this mentioned, look into type 2 bud which means the ratio of thca:cbda is roughly 1:1 or at the very least the cbd is much higher than type 1.

There are research studies that confirm that cbd dramatically reduces the side effects of thc, anxiety being a big one. The psychoactive effects will be dulled down but the side effects will be majorly mitigated.
