instruction: hi doctor I have been dealing with anxiety since childhood I am years old now I have been smoking weed for about six months and my quality of life drastically improved now I could sleep at night I went back to being myself happy my confidence went up and my social anxiety virtually disappeared once while watching videos on the internet I came across one talking about reality and how we might be part of some sort of virtual reality when I started thinking about that it really freaked me out and I had a panic attack then the mixture of the anxiety and being high made me really entertain the idea of this reality was fake I was in a constant state of being on the brink of a panic attack for a few days afterwards even while being completely sober I am better now through the day I am fine even thinking back on it makes me kind of laugh but when I am alone at night the thought comes back and no matter how hard I try I cannot take my mind off it I could not sleep because of the anxiety related symptoms putting on a podcast and listening to people talk is the only way to calm me down I hate this and I cannot stop thinking about how I may become this crazy person who truly believes were in some sort of matrix and end up in some asylum rocking back and forth should I be worried about this am I going crazy I do not want to develop schizophrenia and lose touch with reality I have not smoked since the incident and I have gotten better but I am worried that I will never be able to shake off these thoughts although I know these thoughts are completely ludacris and I am truly fine will time resolve this
