anxiety and marijuana use?

Alright, a week and one day ago, I smoked pot. While I was high I had a horrible panic attack. My heart was racing, I couldn't breath, I got a crazy head rush (a vein at the back of my head was throbbing so hard i thought it was going to pop), When my heart pumps it feels hollow... it's very strange... anyway, ever since that night, I've been having panic attacks everyday ... where I'll have episodes of panic for like 10 mins, then it'll leave for 20 mins, but then come back again and continue and continue for hourssss... why is this happening ? what set this off?

is this actually panic attacks? or is it psychosis ?

please help, I'm really scared... The doctor doesn't know what's wrong with me, and now I have to wear a heart monitor, and get a bunch of tests done ...

has anyone experienced this before?

    I was like this when I tried marijuana. I've never tried it again and never will. It's not the safe miracle herb (drug) that people like to make it out to be.

    I think you should try to see a psychologist in case it is a mental rather than physical problem
