brain damage? pls read all. i need help.

ok basiclly ive been smoking a few years, im 17, only like every other weeked for like 6 months, and sometimes like few times in a week.so not a huge amount. its half term and ive been smoking quite hard a couple of times....like really hard. it all started a few months ago when i smoked a big purey blunt with my friend and i got randomly (ive smoked MUCh more b4) got really fucked. i stood up and went into her house and realised i was fucked, i went really quiret and turned really pale, i had the munches like a bitch but then as time went on a she prepared me food my appatite went and i went completely off my head, i was going proper pale and my mind went totally blank, she kept asking me am i ok, and i was jus murmering yeah im fine, even tho i knew i certainly wasnt. i decided i needed to lie down so i went out of the kitchen and into the hall, the light was off and i couldnt see much, i was walking really slow and felt awful, i started making my way up the stares and when i got half way up my vision went really dark and i couldnt see shit, i started getting really scared and felt i was dying. i fell and jus lay on my front in with my eyes just seeing black, but i knew i was concious. i got up and didnt know where i was. i managed to stumble up the last few steps and crashed into her room and got into bed with the lights on. she came in and was like wtf the wrong with you. i couldnt even speak. then i remembered my munchies and demanded her make me food, even tho she had and i had rejected it and gone off in a retarded state. she brought me bread and ketchup (BLAZE FOOD) and i ate loads. i spent the rest of the night sitting there until i fell asleep. this doesnt sound like much, but it was just the start of things. im an experianced smoker and always smoke pureys so i dont know what happened. it wasnt even new weed, it was off 1/4 i had had for a few weeks so yeah, was really weird.

things were fine next day but i felt really dread for that day.

now recently when ive been smoking, ive been smoking alot and getting really fucked, but even if i sleep for 9 hours, the next morning i wake up with a head full of the night befores draw, jus like a muggy feeling, the problem is this feeling stays for days afterwards, even with loads of sleep. its really weird im not stoned but ive jsut gor this thing hanging over my mind, ruining my concentration and making me feel constantly slightly spaced out. i cant be arsed to do any thing that requires effort and energy. if i try and skate or run, it makes me get this bad headrush thats kinda like being stoned. im learning to drive atm and whenever i go for a drive my brain just cant take in the world fast enough. some thing isnt right in my brain. the feeling hangs over me for like 4 days and then i smoke again and now its taking even longer. i dont understand it at all. im trying to stop smoking until the summer cos of exams but its difficult to pass up an oppertunity to smoke with my friends at the weekend. its all very complicated and is more serious in my own mind than i can communitcate. hope youve been reading this. help. does/has this ever happened to anyone else?

hmm not the first paragraph but after i smoke the next day im shattered and i get a mild headrush from doing minor things....... thats why i try to avoid smoking if ive got something important the next day, i feel all weird and disorientated the next day

thanks for actually reading. im suprised how fast things happen on here. never used a forum before.. but still need to have some replys about the 2nd. cheers man xx

don't worry bro, just give it time. i had a bad dxm trip not too long ago and the same shit happened to me. even thinking or talking felt sluggish. i had a little mental break down last night and the same kind of thing. though i am in good mental health, boil it over with some green tea

edit, btw don't use any mind altering substances until youget your head on straight, though it is a light suggestion

You should read up on having whats called a "psychotic break" from pot. It is a rare reaction. Most think they are gonna die and shit. It is a common problem in the netherlands...people not used to pot go and smoke like champs.

Anyway, you got hypothermia. It can happen from low doses to you know. Again, its rare, but it happens.

Believe me ... I have absolutely gone berserk from pot... and it took a full week for the plane to land. It has happened like 4 times, but that was by far my worst episode. Again, small and high doses ... not sure if one time it was pcp laced. I am 26 and smoke from age 14 to last month to give you an idea.

Having a bad reaction like that is very very rare...but really uncomfortable.



Nutty. Just take it easy. Smoke lightly. Honestly, I find it to happen more with predominently a sativa blend. Indica strains have a different chemistry to them. More of a body high. You wanna minimum 25% indica variety. Otherwise, you just get that real head high.

Which, some folks prefer...it is preference. I always liked a mix.

okay, i had an idea. you know when you said you were on the stairs and it went dark? tell your friend to turn the light back on. lol. for real though, i have trouble believing that you think this is something serious. if you really thought you were doing brain damage then why would you keep smoking? btw, nobody has ever even come close to figuing out the power of the human brain. ive had alot the same kind of things happen, get all weak feeling and turn pale and shit. when your high things freak you out more, you may have just let your mind run away with you in tow

Yeah homie you just had a bad trip.....get your mind right next time you blaze and youll be alright

well... ive been smoking everyday for 2 years, with no hangovers, or aftereffects. Then, last week i took a break of 4 days. After it, i smoked, and become completly blazed... almost like my first times... and after it, until today (4 days after) im feeling my fingertips numb. It only had happened the first times i smoked, when i would keep feeling my fingertips numb almost one week after the days i smoked.

So, for me it seems when your tolerance is low, there is some effects which can remain for a long time after you smoke. Specially if you become soo much stoned. It shall fade with the time, or with the tolerance. If it does not, think about going to a doctor.

so many people post the same type of experience you smoked too much and couldn't handle it

Word. Once you think you are a messenger from god, start talking to ghosts, think you can fly, etc, you might have brain damage....or if you start stuttering, talk a shitload slower than you are thinking, or your thinking is wayyy slower.

Wait... what?

i wasnt really being serious about brain damage i know its not like that, used that mainly to get some attention. and nor am i complaining about the bad trip, which i know what jus me too fucked and like whiteying, its more this lingering haze over my mind. still dont feel normal. but yeah. it is getting less and less, its just i am experianced and nothing like this ever happened before and noneone i know (some of which smoked like chimneys) had any idea. lol at some peopel being assholes on here, namely "187"

lol at what "CDXX" said. joker

yeah that thing has happened to me before. its basically the reason i dont really smoke pot anymore. me and my friend were smoking some good shit he got. well were smoking and i had the same mindset i always have while smoking(so i know it was not a mental thing), well before i knew it i was baked like a mother fucker. i mean we got out of my friends car and i couldnt even stand still and i couldnt stop shaking. we go inside his house and i try to watch tv, For 30 minutes straight my vision would go from clear to fuzzy every 3- 5 seconds. i really felt like i was dying. it wasnt a good experience at all.

Then i had some more bad experiences a couple months later like super sensitive hearing, feeling numb, dizzy etc. but i remembered how i busted my head a week before and realized i had a concusion. (Do not ever smoke pot after a head injury)

I can understand all the bad experiences i had while having a concusion but i still dont get what went wrong that one day when i felt like i was dying.

Experiences that change your mind is good, try taking a break for a couple months. Try new things, maybe drinking green tea every morning? It could be something with your dreams or the surroundings around you?

I've been there, but there was so much more. Be sure to have fun!

Maybe its something in your system (food, drinks, etc) or whatever .. I had this happen a long time ago where I was turning pale and everyone saw that .. I didnt think much of it and neither did they .. I just sat down, took some more hits (LMAO!) and then chilled after and I was fine .. ALWAYS BREATH PROPERLY!! .. thats the case most of the time

You probably had some kind of hysteria and told your brain something was wrong so your brain actually created those feelings. Something like that...yeah.

The thing is when your doing weed everyday you can't tell that if your feelign the effects or not, but after a 4 day break, you prolly began to realise what it was to be "sober" again and thus actually noticed the aftereffects, which DO infact happen, especially at young ages.
