Rapid shaking, does anyone else get this?

[gohomegetstoned]

SO whenever I am high my body starts to shake (mainly legs and arms) and its hard to control. It's not a seizure for sure, and whenever I drive its hard to keep a steady foot on the acceleration because of it.

Does this happen to anyone else? Can I prevent the 'shakeyness' ?

I dont mean shaking as in shivering, it's more of a... my leg is moving up and down (its more rapid than a shiver, but not a seizure or anything like that)

Throughout my life frlom time to time I suddenly have these what you may or may not call mild seizures where I incontrolably shudder, I have to shake my head from side to side and it usually involves some form of vocal release, sort of like when you take a shot of tequila and a slice of lem, that kind of thing. I don't know what causes it, or whether its consider a form of epilepsy or not, I have never spoken to a doctor or anyone about, nor felt the need to as it has never ever caused me any distress, pain or any problem whatsoever.

I get it when I watch the news, it seems things are turning so wrong in this world that I get a little terrified. I'm sure it has something to do with anxiety.

Do something that is enjoyable: music.

I don't think that what Gohomegetstoned is talking about has to do with anxiety...

When I first started smoking, I started out with blunts, so I'd always get royally intokesicated, like off my ass hallucinating. And I'd get those shakes as well. I only got them when I was first starting out, and they never lasted longer than maybe 5 or 10 minutes, but i THINK it's a combination of overstimulation, and lack of oxygen. Your nerves and receptors are taking in so much that I think it's overwhelming at times.

This hasn't happened to me in years, except for one time a week or two ago. me & my boy had just gotten too too tooooo fuckin high (read: happily fucked the fuck up) and i just layed on his bed shaking like that for a good 5 or 10. At first I thought i might have just been hallucinating shaking, like maybe my eyes or my brain was shaking lol, but it was definitely me.

As far as the whole driving/shaking thing goes, I didn't start driving stoned until about a year into my smoking, and by then the shakes had stopped, so I definitely don't think I dealt with that. But my advise would be to play it safe with driving, I mean driving stoned is a risk to begin with, but when you're distracted by these shakes it can be.. well.. distracting! lol so just be safe, but i don't think you're gonna die or nooothin!!

:yippee:
