Low dopamine can cause some sorts of anxiety.
I find sometimes (I am on Celexa) that a cup of coffee actually quells some anxiety. Celexa, I find makes me a little anxious about my performance - on tests and stuff like that - I think its low dopamine, a cup of coffee can really help some times - strange !As far as weed goes - there are many active ingrediants not just THC, I also know many who's anxiety is really helped by it, but if you do have bent towards paranoia and, this may make anxiety worse - or at least panic worse.
Very high dopamine can cause panic disorder, some think SSRIs work for panic, not by increasing serotonin, but rather by lowering dopamine.
Be your own doctor in moderation.
