Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, possibility of anxiety related chest tightness is more likely in your case.
Marijuana is abusive substance. On long run, it is habit forming so better not to take Marijuana in future.
You should definitely consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions.
Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution.
You may need anxiolytic drugs(propranolol and flunarizine combination) too.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. You.
