Dreamy State, No Focus, Anxiety After Smoking Marijuana. How Can Normal Behaviour Occur?

Thanks for posting your query.
Please do not worry.
Yes, marijuana is known to cause panic attacks and anxiety in susceptible individuals due to the effect of THC( the chemical content of marijuana) on brain. The dissociative and dreamlike state can also be one of the sideffects of the marijuana .
However since its already been 3 weeks now and the symptoms haven't resolved yet it's advisable to consult a psychiatrist for the best management .
I understand your concern to be normal and I would like you to be positive about it. This can happen to anyone even with a single exposure to marijuana and the best way to deal with it is to seek help of your doctor and support groups.
If you neglect or hide your symptoms even though minor at present, there are chances that you may cause worsening of the anxiety or panic attacks in future.
So the best way to deal with it is to get it treated as soon as feasible , the earlier the diagnosis better would be the management and prognosis.
Please do not hesitate to share your problem with your family , friends or your doctor as these symptoms are an after effect of the drug and not fully in your control.
Hope I have answered your query.
Wishing you good health.
Regards
