I smoked weed for the first time in a while and I’m beating myself up over it. I’m terrified of dying of lung cancer and I can’t stop thinking about my breathing now. I don’t know what to do.

      Hi friend!! I promise you one bowl/doink or whatever you prefer isn’t going to cause lung cancer. I understand how scary things can be, especially when weed sometimes amplifies that anxiety. Drink a nice glass of cold/ ice water if you’re able, take a deep breath and try to focus on something funny or something you enjoy! (I like to throw on a comfort movie) You’ve got this <3

      That sucks, especially since it's a very real concern. If you're using it for symptom relief I think you can get gummies or other non-smoking forms, but I'm not super well versed with weed

      I’ve had health anxiety before and it’s horrible though so i don’t mean to downplay what you’re experiencing. Lung cancer is more linked to tobacco products than weed and you don’t smoke often so try not to think too much about it.

      Okay so I want you to breath in threw your nose and out threw your mouth, and try and focus yourself on something funny or something to take your mind off it, I had to quit smoking bc I got really bad anxiety from it
