Anxiety and Drugs

Hi I'm new to this site but I've just been needing some answers
A few month ago I took LSD before that I have taken it plenty of times around 11 I'd say. Anyways this trip the effects of the acid were coming strong I felt it in 30 minutes. I was alone. I skyped one of my friends to calm down it was going good for a while just talking and whatever. As time went on I started thinking and the devil came across my mind. Then I felt this huge pain come over my body. And the devil was talking to me to make a deal with him and sell my soul and what not. God was there telling me to not. My heart was racing and my thinking was all over the place. I couldn't breathe and I was gasping for air. It felt like I was about to die. I went crazy and ended up in the hospital. After a while the fear went away. Then I smoked some weed months after and it was super strong it felt like i was on acid again I'm not sure if it was a flashback or not. So I stopped smoking in all and haven't touched it since. When I was high I felt that terrible pain and started thinkikg about God and demons again. I was arguing with myself in my head again none stop it was. The fear went down again but after that I always had these voices in my head telling me what to do and make choices for me. It's a mental thing I don't really hear them. They tell me bad things are coming my way and don't do this else this will happen. For Example don't go to the doctor or else This. A few weeks after I was sleeping and heard this loud ringing noise and it woke me up and I started panicking I felt the pain and my heart was racing my thoughts were thinking about demons devil God again and I couldn't breathe it felt like I was really dying. It also happened again at night. I can't sleep anymore and I have terrible nightmares. And sometimes I feel my heart race pick up downtowns out of nowhere. I also get hot flashes and chills. I don't know what to do I'm only 16 and I'm going to the doctors soon but I want help for other people too. I just want to know what you think. I think too much about myself my future demons devil God and all this stuff. I have become a better person and quit doing drugs. I don't know what to do. I'm thinking the thoughts I have are because my religious ties but before the first bad trip I wasn't very religious so I don't know. It was something out of a scary movie. I just want to live normal again

Many people suffer their first anxiety attacks while stoned.  Since most LSD isn't pure and is usually mixed with speed, it's hard to come down off it, and since pot has gotten so strong by breeding it's also harder to come down from.  So the first good thing you did was to stop taking drugs.  Now I'd consult a psychologist to help you overcome the pattern of thinking you're getting yourself into before it becomes chronic.
