   Well, I think a lot of people get panic attacks from   
   pot on occasion and the psychotic episode was just an   
   extension of a panic attack with the world turning   
   very sour around me (which Taliesin described as   
   the prison of Arianrhod I think).   My brother John   
   also has had panic attacks from pot and doesn't touch   
   it but doesn't have mental illness, but there may   
   be a genetic component.  Certainly the first time   
   I tried pot (probably milder) in late high school   
   it was a pulsing, relaxing, erotic experience.   
      
   I'm off to The Ship Inn again,   
   David   
   p.s. I wonder if any drug agents are interested in me?   
          (Of course I don't think so or you could label   
           me as possibly paranoid unless they were.)
