No kidding he had a panic attack, he had no clue what dosage was in it, or what type of marijuana they used. The probability of me buying street cookies is exactly zero.

I don't know if you read the whole thing, but the anecdotes were backed up by a professor of neurology and biochemistry at Georgetown University Medical Center. There was science presented as well.
Regardless, I think it's reckless other than a doctor or pharmacist to recommend a drug to treat a serious condition. No one knows how they will react. It's like telling someone who is sad to have a couple of drinks; it could help relax them, but if the person has clinical depression, it could have a negative effect. Anxiety is similar in that respect. Some people who live with anxiety should steer clear of pot.
