Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me figure out what happened to me quite a long time ago.
I posted a similar message on this forum many years ago, but the responses I got weren??t helpful at all and basically consisted of comments that seemed immature such as ??Dood, you smoked some good shit? or ??I wish that happened to me?. So I left. But since this forum has changed quite a bit since the last time I came here, perhaps I will finally get some insight into this.
I posted it here because its more of a health/well-being issue, and I??m sorry if its long.
I had a very strange incident and I couldn??t find anyone else who had something like it, and I have been searching for more than a decade, so I really haven??t been able to find any answers.
Prior to the incident:
I smoked on a regular basis, on average every two to three days (if not more) non-stop for three years. The very first time I tried, I really didn??t feel much of anything, besides feeling happy, and wanting to listen to lots of music. And I tried because my best friend had tried it and said it was not the evil thing it was made out to be, and it wasn??t frightening in anyway, and that there were hallucinations or alterations of perception.
I tried it, and he was correct. And I thought, wow, all this negativity and I thought people??s view on it were way off.
So I began smoking it on a regular basis, and it was great. Every time I smoked I would feel extremely happy, very relaxed, and when it would start to wear off I would feel sleepy. My perceptions wouldn??t change, I wouldn??t feel anything negative, no hallucinations, no distortions in space or time, no distortions in the physical body, no trails, nothing of the sort. In fact, besides being happy (and getting the occasional cotton-mouth, munchies, and blood-shot eyes) I felt absolutely nothing else. Which was great and the reason I kept doing it.
The incident:
I went to smoke with some friends, just like always. But this stuff smelled different, it stunk and you could literally smell it through anything. The best way I could describe it was like a skunk that had a hint of some sort of chemical. And it was bright green like it was fluorescent green.
About three minutes after smoking it, one of my friends said that their legs were feeling heavy, and I was about to say the same, when everything went to shit. I completely lost consciousness. When I came to which was about 30 seconds later, I began screaming on the top of my lungs, a blood-curdling scream. My whole reality was warped. Space and time were warped in the extreme, my vision was heavily distorted and so was my hearing.
The perception of my body was distorted, and I saw trails in everything. Then I lost consciousness again for several minutes. When I came to again I had the feeling like I was dying. The distortion of reality was even worse now, and I was losing consciousness every few seconds or so and I couldn??t maintain control over my thoughts or movements.
Another friend (and his sister) who weren??t with us to smoke came and they said I looked different, they said my facial features made me appear as ??not myself? and they said I was very pale.
His sister immediately realized the situation wasn??t normal and quickly took me to her and her husbands place. By this point I stopped losing consciousness, but everything was worse because I was fully aware of the distortions in reality, space and time. And my heart-rate was through the roof. Her husband asked what happened and they explained to him, and he quickly told me to lie down on the sofa and turned off all the lights and eliminated any noise.
I stayed there for about 4 hours without anything changing. After that, the distortions in reality began going away, but I still saw trails everywhere, and my mind was hazy with several instances of my consciousness blacking out, but I didn??t actually faint and was able to respond I simply couldn??t remember what I did during it.
2 hours after that I regained full consciousness, but there were trails everywhere and my perceptions of my body and movement were way off and delayed. I felt really hungry but I couldn??t eat anything (I don??t know if it was because I smoked, or because it was several hours since I last ate).
But they took me home and I went to bed, and every time I would move I would feel the distortions in the perception of my body and movement, and I didn??t like it.
I slept for at least 12 hours. When I woke up, I felt absolutely amazing. I felt more awake and alert than ever before, and it seemed like my consciousness was more awake than ever before. The next day, I felt extremely exhausted.
But there were left over effects. Right before I went to sleep, or when I felt tired, I would get the distortions in movement. This lasted for about 6 months after the incident, and I would happen every night. It finally started to go away slowly after the 6 month period but it would still happen, just not as frequent. The other thing was that if I ever started to remember the incident or anything associated with it, I would begin to feel as if it were about to happen again and I would being to panic, which would set off distortions in my perception of movement. There was also a song that played during the incident and it too would trigger those feelings.
Even simply smelling the smoke would trigger the feeling of the incident happening again, and I had to leave whenever I was around it.
I decided to go to the doctor and tell him what happened and how I was feeling and with all this weirdness. He referred me to a neurologist. The neurologist ran a whole slew of tests, EEG, CAT-scan, MRI, blood work, hormone/endocrine/neuro tests, and they all came out normal, and said there was absolutely nothing wrong, and that everything was fine.
So, I was literally stumped as to what happened to me. Especially since nothing ever happened to others that smoked the exact same stuff.
I did receive a federally mandated vaccine (for Hep-B), as did everyone else who smoked the same stuff, one week before the incident and I don??t know if that had anything to do with it.
So to say the least, I haven??t smoked in over a decade.
What do you guys think happened here?
Was it that I smoked one type of weed for all that time and then all of a sudden smoked the other kind (Indica and then Sativa, or vice-versa)?
Was another substance possibly added to the marijuana?
Any theories?
