Urgent! 21 yo F, new member_Drug Test THIS Week...help please and I have questions!!!

[emilie29]

I am a 21 year old, 5'2, around 120lbs. female. I smoked via a vaporizer three times in the month of March, once on the 8th, the next on the 15th, and the last time in the late night/early morning of March 25th and 26th. I made sure to fully enjoy it that last time :jointsmile: , as it would be the last time I'd be able to have any until September (the job i'm applying for is a summer internship, and goes until late August, and they do random drug tests). Those are the only times I have had M this year.

However, I am a bit paranoid that I won't pass the test :/ As I will be having a drug test sometime this week (I found out a week and a half ago I'd be having the test...just found out it would be this week on Friday...they had to do some paperwork before) most for an upcoming job. I know the test will be a urinalysis, but that is all I know. I'm hoping I will be fine, but am really not sure. :wtf:

I've been doing some reading and researching online, and have found the table that lists users who smoke 2 to 4 times a month will probably be clear in 11 to 18 days, and other friends of mine have said it takes a month. My boyfriend thinks I will be okay, given that it was small amount each time, and that each time was about a week apart, and I haven't had any since the 26th. I talked to a friend of mine who works at a collective, and he said I should be fine, that 2 to 3 weeks should be good enough for me. I know I won't be able to make it to 3 weeks, but it will be 2 weeks as of Monday, and I'll be taking the test anywhere from 2 weeks and one or 2, 3 at the best, days since I last had weed. Other friends who I know have told me I should be fine, and not to worry, but I still worry

But to be honest, I'm a bit nervous about passing the test, and the possibility of not passing. I've also been sick lately, and haven't been eating a whole lot, and my urine has naturally been clearer/less yellow for the past two weeks due to that factor alone (not counting the cranberrry juice, water, tea, etc intake that's higher than normal). Could they have me do a retest due to it being diluted? Should I tell them I've been sick and haven't been eating a lot lately?? Or not?

However, I am feeling a bit more confident, as I did an at home drug test last night, and everything came out as negative. The second negative line for THC was somewhat faint, but you could see it from an arms length distance, and the test book said that No matter How Faint the line was, if it was there, then it was negative. So I'm confident it was negative, and will hopefully get another negative when I test at home again.

I'm thinking I'll do one more test either tonight or tomorrow. I'm also keeping a high water intake, eating a balanced diet, I don't have a car so I walk pretty much everywhere or take public transit, got a workout today doing manual labour and farm work for volunteering on a farm, so I'm getting exercise, and am also drinking good amounts of water, unfiltered cranberry juice and green tea. Those have been my mainstays for the past week as far as liquids go.

If you have any advice, comments, or suggestions or thoughts, please let me know. I'm sorry if this is super paranoid or freaky sounding....I'm just thinking the whole issue through way too much.

Thank you!

Best,

~Emilie

Anytime you test yourself, always use the first urination of the day when THCA concentrations would be at their highest. Taking home tests in the latter parts of the day skews the results due to the consumption of fluids that happen during the normal course of the day. Once the fluids consumed had all been urinated out, the bladder is replenished with fresh THCA-laden urine by the kidneys, and thus the donor would resume testing positive for THC. This is the reason why drinking a bunch of water days or weeks before the U/A is of no help. For more info, do an Advanced Search, using the terms "drinking water useless" and/or "unaffected copius fluid consumption".

By using the first urination, youre testing yourself under the "worst-case scenario". If you test negative under that "worst-case scenario" (regardless of line intensity) then youre good to go.

I tested myself on Monday morning using the first urination, and it came out negative! Also, I noted that the second line was a bit more intense than the line I had gotten on Saturday night...so I guess that's a good thing. I had my test this afternoon. I did one last intake of water and tea in the late morning (I was babysitting at a neighbour's house, so I didn't have cranberry juice available), then went and got lunch about an hour before my test, so I'd have food in my system. All in all, I had a total of 3 voids before the test, and the test itself went well. The lady who I worked with said that I would have my results in 2 days at the latest.

I'm still a bit nervous, as it was a split sample, but am feeling confident given the negative on Sat, and the negative on Monday with the first void. Right now, I'm just keeping good thoughts! Will let you know once I find out Thanks again!
