Hi Im 34 yrs old and have a decade of cannibas use behind me, after using for long period of times I developed serve aniexty to the point I had to take a benzodiazepine to be able to function,usually I would come right after a couple of weeks and be fine again untill I started using cannibas again,. Now out of fear of the aniexty returning I feel I have developed aniexty over getting aniexty, dose anyone eles have this? It's been going on for two weeks now, one day I'm fine the next I feel slightly anxious and it just snows balls into bad Aniexty within hours out of fear of getting Aniexty!! It's crazy!

This is exactly how it works for me:)
It's best to get this sorted out now as it can lead to agoraphobia and other such things.

Hi Moana,
Anxiety is still anxiety no matter what thoughts are causing it. When you were treated previously, were you only prescribed medication? Was therapy given as an option? Was your ******** use taken into account when you saw your doctor?
Going back to your GP and explaining your concerns over anxiety and fully disclosing everything surrounding it will help you to get the best treatment.
best
