I was hesitant when I thought about the paperwork I had to do to get the medical marijuana card, but he was with me every step of the way
I went into panic attacks so quickly that I didn’t even feel them coming on. I was to where I was afraid to do anything or go anywhere, because I didn’t know when a panic attack was going to happen. If you’ve never had a panic attack, let me tell you a bit about it. Suddenly your heart pounds. Your head is pounding to match the heartbeat and you can feel everything inside tighten. Your body heats and you feel you may implode. There is this feeling of impending doom and you can’t shake it. Luckily, the panic attack only lasts for several minutes, but they are horrible. I lost my job because they found me cowering in a corner, trying to get away from everyone, when I had one particularly severe panic attack. I went to my therapist and told him I was through with this. I was ready to give up and die. He had tried all different medications. He said he wanted to try one more treatment. It was less orthodox than traditional medicine, but he thought it may work. He gave me a prescription for medical marijuana. I was hesitant when I thought about the paperwork I had to do to get the medical marijuana card, but he was with me every step of the way. After two weeks, I stood in the medical marijuana dispensary picking out my first marijuana products. I didn’t think I was going to see any change until a little over two weeks after using medical marijuana. I woke up one morning and realized I had a panic attack in nearly two weeks.
