Recent Experiences

[KingsBlend420]

I've been smoking buddah for about 5 years now and just recently I started having just horrible experiences smoking weed. Basically what happens is sometimes I will smoke and I will be just fine, regular high, giggly and chill. But other times when I smoke from the same bag I will just get extremely paranoid and numb. For example a week ago me and a friend were smoking and we just got super ripped, no problems. A few days later I started smoking out of the same bag, all I had was one bowl and my entire mouth went numb, I could feel no pressure on my tongue and during this period I actually had a lisp. It wasn't a very enjoyable high. Is it possible that my mind is making things up because my body is rejecting the marijuana in some way? Or is my weed just extremely good.
The only thing that puzzles me is that sometimes I'll get a good high and other times my high will suck, even though it's from the same bud. I highly doubt that it is laced either. Anyone have any similar experiences or more light to shed on this issue?

I forgot to mention that this started happening after I started buying weed at college, from several different dealers. Could it be that the weed up here is just insane?

[Willburnit]

its all in ur mind

[KingsBlend420]

I just don't understand how my mouth becoming numb could be in my mind, because I can feel it getting not numb after about an hour or two of smoking.

[KingsBlend420]

Anyone else have any more light to shed on this issue? I'm debating whether or not to quit for the next 2 months because of this experience.

Well, in my experiences, if you don't live in a place where cannabis can be bought legally, with a medical card, or in places like amsterdam, college towns (universities not small colleges) usually have the best weed. I attribute it to several reasons. Some people that go to college, didn't end up there by getting scholarships, but because they are wealthy. In my experiences, the people from colleges who have the best weed, are generally wealthy, so they can spend a large amount of money on good weed. Another reason is, there are students from all over the country and sometimes the world, who get weed that isn't available locally, etc... Several of the people I've gotten dank from, who went to a university have driven to their home towns such as New York, or other major cities, and have bought it there, and brought it back with them. They know it makes money, and it does. Several of my friends who live on a campus have a hard time finding mid-grade marijuana, and it pisses them off, because they don't always have the money to buy 8ths that range from $50-75.

[KingsBlend420]

Yea, I buy all my 8ths for 50 bucks usually. Fuck that outdoor and shwag bullshit. I'm from mpls and supposedly we have really good weed. I appreciate your input, but it doesn't really help me out with my situation. Thanks though, anyone else?

It's good that you're taking a pro-active approach to trying to fix your problem. I'd love to help. I think first, however, it would be ideal to have a little more background information. What are your smoking patterns? Where do you usually smoke? Do you notice any pattern to when you start having a bad trip? How do you react to these problems (the numb-mouth, etc...). Does it throw you off at that point or (since it's after 1-2 hours) do you think it's a side-effect to the weed?

I've been smoking for over 4 years, taking breaks on and off. I started early 9th grade, but only did it like once every other month, and then in 10th grade I started doing it almost daily. After 10th grade I did it about once every other week in 11th and then quit completely my senior year. I started up again my freshman year in college which is where I am now, but I started doing it daily. I usually smoke in my dorm room, at the frat house, or at my house. This issue has happened to me in my dorm room, and at my house. I only start having a bad trip when I notice that I don't feel like, for example when my toungue starts going numb. I usually react with paranoia and panick, for example the first time it happened my heart started pounding like crazy because I so afraid. The second time I was able to be a little more laid back, but I was still kind of afraid. I personally think that it's a side-effect from the weed, but it's hard because sometimes my tounge will not go numb from smoking weed. It's very strange, any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks idude.

Whoo. Go Minneapolis. I live around there. But yea its probably just your mind screwing with you. Stuff like that has happened to me before too.

[Arklenao2]

try diff bud?

[tek(bdm)]

honestly it could be laced with coke to intensify the high. but then it would be more expensive by alot. And it takes about a whole gram of coke to completely numb your mouth. So maybe its just psychological... listen to your body quit for a while or start smoking less exotic strains.:stoned:

[KingsBlend420]

Thanks for the input. Anybody have any more light to shed on this issue?

[Snorbel]

It's not laced, just some bad highs

[KingsBlend420]

Yea, I guess. I started finishing off the rest of the bag tonight. It was a 25 back so not much was left, but like I shared it w/ a friend and we each had like 3 hits and i'm feeling pretty fucked up. not numb though, just high. I guess this is just really good good weed that I'm not used to. Also, I found that when I looked closely at the light i could see little shiny things in the weed. They were shiny and super super super small. Are those weed crystals or cocaine?

[Snorbel]

if you lick it and your tongue goes numb then maybe it's cocaine :thumbsup:

otherwise smoking cocaine is a waste

Anyone? More input please on those tiny crystals. They are spread out all over the weed, but there aren't like a huge amount of them.

Good weed generally has some THC crystals (fine white crystals) all over the buds. That is perfectly natural for a plant that has high THC content.

As far as your high experiences, I'm wondering the same thing about different types of highs and posted a question today about it. I do know that "cannabis sativa" plants are supposedly more of a rushing/energetic type of high and "cannabis indica" plants are supposed to be more of a laid back, "stoned", chill type of high. The bud I have right now is giving me very rushed, energetic (but fucked up, like I can't concentrate on shit and can hardly even breath) types of highs. I'm wondering if I need to try to more of an "indica" strain of bud.

I'm not sure about different types of highs from the same bag. There is still a lot that is not known about how THC and other cannabinol chemicals in cannabis effect the brain and the body. It is very possible that you can get different types of highs depending on what type of mood your in. For instance, I've been stressed a lot lately b/c I'm in the process of applying to law schools, deciding which one to go to, where to move, how to pay, etc. and that may be one reason I've had more of a "panic" style high. Who knows. If the drug were legal there would probably be more research into how it effects the mind and the body. But of course its not (at least not here in the U.S.).

[KingsBlend420]

Can anybody give me a little further information on those very tiny shiny things I can see in my weed? They shine in the light. I don't think it's cocaine because cocaine is white and these are shiny in the light and when you move the weed around they kind of shine. Please let me know.

could be coke, or grit. Read the stickied thread about grit weed in the lounge...

[casper1]

ok the small crystals are the thc that has resonated on all the leaves that is normal and they are probably in sporadic patters because the weed was tossed around alittle knocking them off or was rubbing against the side of the bag etc. the numb thing def sounds laced i have never herd of that and there is no way that is ur mind so cocaine is plausible. take a magnifying glass to the weed and see if the crystals are clear or WHite. if white it is laced. another thing that points to it being laced is the engergy and hard to breath. look into those things and tell me whats up because it is def odd weed is usually consistant in its effect if it is the same weed.

[KingsBlend420]

I just flushed it. Not worth the risk. I'm done smoking till 4/20.

Also: The link in the grit thread does not work.
