Fast Heartbeat bad trip?

[Spikedjester]

One time for me personally I got really really high and it felt like my heart was super sped up. A lot faster, not just the little bit that bud does. And then it makes you have a terrible trip because it hurts and your afraid your gonna have a heart attack. It lasted the whole time.

That was about 6 months ago.

Today me and my friend blazed out of my new icecatcher and he took a fat rip and got so fucked off of it, anyway he started complaining that his heart was hurting really bad and was beating fast. I felt it and compared to mine it was racing. It ruined his whole time and since its dank from the clinic it was like 4 hours wasted of what otherwise would have been a super good time.

Anyone ever experience this or a similar "trip"? If so any tips or any information you can provide about it?

It happened to me once when I smoked way too fast and too much. I went and laid down on my bed and calmed myself for a while and I was fine.

The point is just take it slowly, and there's never a need to toke a lot at first. If its too little, wait a bit and pack another bowl.

You know what's really gay?

This has been happening to me a lot lately. I don't know why, and I don't know how. I've been smoking for a couple years now, and this shit never used to happen. It almost seems to happen every other time I smoke. For awhile I thought it was the strand, or the potency. Then I thought it was because I was smoking so much, so often. I still have no idea why its been happening. It's almost like a panic attack. My heart starts racing and I get this feeling like I'm going to die or some shit.

It's ridiculous. I've been smoking long enough to know all this shit is in my head...but then I start thinking about it more...maybe it's not all in my head. Maybe there really is something wrong with my body. It's fucked up. Bleh...its been decreasing a lot lately, so that's good, but it's not completely gone. If this keeps going on much longer, I just don't know what I'm going to do. I really don't wanna give it up.

Relax, just imagine that it is Mary Jane massaging your heart.

Ya, that sux. Happened to me about a year ago after hotboxing my buddies bathroom with multiple joints. I thought I was gonna die lol, never happened again though :stoned:

i have been going through a similar thing myself lately...i smoke daily, though not that much, but still the same amount everyday, and my hands are shaking and my heart is beating out of its chest...it is like i am looking down the barrel of a gun or something...doesnt matter the strain or anything.....i have no idea what is causing this, i have never experienced anything like it......i am curious to see what others have to share....

Yea it was happening to me and whenever i smoke my heart feels fast but most of the time when im laughing i just forget aobut it and ive sort of gotten used to the feeling. If u just chill out it actually feels pretty good at times cause ur chest feels relaxed and numb sorta. But yea i understand why it was freaking u out cause it did for me to but just try to chill and get used to it cause it wont be as bad.

Happened to me during my first time smoking, and it was a panic attack. For awhile as a beginner it still happened, but I learned to live with it. Now it rarely does. if you keep your mind off it (i know, easier said than done), it will go away. There is no reason to worry about it, guys. You're not going to die. Just tell yourself that nobody has ever died from an overdose of cannabis, so why would you? Also, tell yourself that you did it to have fun, not to have a panic attack and have a shitty, tormenting time. It could be that you were overwhelmed... that's why it happened. Perhaps you've never been that high before? I think the rapid heart beat is either completely fake (as in, it's all in your head), or you're just scaring yourself, so your heart beats faster. Afterall, when you're scared, your heart does beat faster. If you're not scared, why would it? Also, Reaper666, I agree that what you said can happen, but I believe this is just the result of an overwhelming high. The trick is to calm yourself down. Cheerz.

P.S. I noticed that with sativa strains this happens more often. Try an indica strain if you just can't get this to stop.

[Spikedjester]

Yes both times were with sativa strains I noticed. It really is annoying and usually ruins the whole high. I wonder if anybody has any more info on this subject.

I have the same problem as well when i smoke. I seem to get really anxious and tired which isnt fun. Drink some Classic Cokacola and you'll be feeling much better, i swear it works for me everytime. Try it out and post back what you think.
