First Time Toker Scared

[wernerweel]

I have smoked marijuana two times before but didn't get high. Each of those times I had anywhere from 7 to 14 hits. The first time was in June, second was in August.

October 31st I got offered some weed that I'm pretty sure wasn't laced so I smoked it. Seeing as I didn't get high those times I decided to take 30 hits and up of the weed I was smoking. I smoked out of an apple btw, no tin foil just an apple.

After about 3 minutes after finishing I was tweaking like crazy for about an hour to an hour and a half. After that I was kind of chill until l I felt like I got back to normal. At this time I was tired so I decided to go to sleep.

Here's the part that's got me on edge for the past few days. After that night my body feels sort of numb. I basically feel no pain on my tongue, and when food enters my mouth I can't really tell it's there. I also feel detached from reality in some ways and say things, and do things that I wouldn't normally do.

On top of this I have a really high heart rate and have had an anxiety attack last night. Should I see a doctor about these symptoms and is it possible that I may have overdosed on weed.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I was on an antibiotic at the same time could that have anything to do with it.

You just smoked too much for your 1st time a couple hits is all you need and wait about 15 minutes between tokes.

I kind of didn't take a break between hits I just took a hit every other second.

You had acute anxiety/panic attack. SAME THING happened to me first time I actually got stoned. You are dwelling on it way too much now and thus focusing way too much negative energy on yourself. You did not die, you are not different forever, you jusy got high and now you are not. Your body processes and metabolizes the THC in a pretty short period of time. It's just like getting really drunk and being hungover the next day. I personally have felt some pretty strange & crazy shit when really stoned off of different types of weed. Keep in mind that different bud will give you different effects but either way just take ONE or TWO hits and then chill. You overdid it.

The tongue thing is all in your head man. When you are REALLY stoned sometimes your mouth can definitely feel weird and numb but these are primarily symptoms of anxiety. (along with cold hands, fast heart rate, etc)

Trust me dude, you really are fine. I double triple quadruple promise. :thumbsup: :hippy:

Now about that antibiotic, they can definitely make you feel spacey and paranoid. When you are in a state of general anxiety from the weed and getting too high this can easily be magnified because you are being overly critical of yourself and paying far too much attention to little things that you normally would ignore. This will go away once you stop taking it. Hope you are not on Biaxin though, that shit is pure poison man.

its really normal especially if your older and just start smoking,its no biggie really.if u had smoke pot laced with anything it would have been pcp and u would not of wanted to go to sleep.u would have noticed any other drug on your weed.heres what i would do if u do continue to smoke.toke up by your self maybe smoke half a bowl, cook some dinner and watch t.v listen to the radio etc.i have done a lot of drugs and i can honestly say that if u hype something up to the point were your nervous about doing it .A u shouldnt be doing it and B.u will have a terrible time with your experience.anything that can change your experience on life with no effort is a gift and should not be abused.pot is the one thing u can learn to love and enjoy,just take it slow and love the bennefits it brings.

Don't worry, it's highly unlikely that it was laced since this isn't cost effective for dealers, given how cheap Cannabis is in comparison to other drugs, and dispensaries too will always ensure quality.

A lot of people have bad experiences when they have a low tolerance and smoke a large amount. You have to get used to the high before you can go smoking way more than usual, as otherwise it can really scare you.

As for an overdose, you would have to consume around 32 ounces, that's 896 grams, or 1792 joints, in the space of about 15 minutes to even have a *chance* of overdosing. In terms of overdose potential Cannabis is probably the safest plant on earth. This is also with zero tolerance, so with a low or basic tolerance the number of joints would probably double, and good luck smoking that much in such a short time.

To put it short, you just got really high, but don't worry about it, next time will be more pleasant. If it isn't, you can sue me. :thumbsup:

wow...well at least you didn't go to the emergency room due to your "cannabis overdose"

you might try inhaling it, or smoking real marijuana if 15 hits of it didn't get you high..
