    Edibles and why even PROs should be careful.

    In no way is this an anti edible post. I've been eating edibles for almost 20 years,and have been and avid smoker for over 20 years. However a couple of days ago I experienced one of the most intense and uncomfortable highs ever.

    Thursday night I decided to go out with a couple of friends to this bar/restaurant in Las Vegas.The vibe was good I had about 3 beers,which I have a very high tolerance for. One of my friends divulged that he had a sugar lollipop edible. Without even hesitating I broke off about 1/4 of it and popped in my mouth. As we know edibles can take anywhere from a half to full hour to kick in. A 1/2 hour goes by and I start feeling the high but It's very light,so I decided to eat a couple more pieces of the lolli. At this point I'm getting the giggles which is always a great feeling because I never get them when I toke. One of our friends proposes that we smoke a small joint he rolled. We go to his car and blaze up.The joint was small so I only took about 3 hits. Both my friends bail out. One of them before he leaves suggests that I hang out at the casino(where the bar was) because I looked really high and at the exact moment he mentioned that my high got very intense. Never the less I was still in control. I strolled in the casino and figured I would gamble. I proceeded to the craps table I started over analyzing everything. From people walking past me to the music playing on the floor. You know that feeling when your stoned as hell and you think everyone knows and is looking at you funny but it's probably all in your head. Yeah,that's how I felt.

    So I played some craps and blackjack and surprisingly won a little bit money. I'm not a big gambler so I didn't intend to stay very long. About a half an hr goes by and the tables got cold so I knew this was my cue to get the fuck out before I left with nothing. As I walk out the casino doors the heat hits me like a smack in the face.If you've ever been to Vegas in the summer you know that the AC is at like 68 degrees inside when the weather is 102 outside. Even if your not high It's a very uncomfortable feeling and tricks your mind.

    As I'm walking to my car I felt instantaneous cotton mouth. I decided to walk back into the casino,go to the food court,and grab a bottled water. I then went back to my car and as I sat down and prepared to drive home I felt really unbalanced. I knew I was in no condition to drive. I got up out of my car and walked over to the valet. At this point I feel like I'm drunk. I can barley speak or stand on two feet. I mumbled to valet "i'm too drunk to drive,you have to valet my car and call me a cab" I obviously wasn't drunk but the MJ laws in Vegas are pretty strict and you never know who's a cop. Valet was very helpful and within a minute they put me in a cab and sent me on my way.

    Before the cab could leave the casino parking lot I felt really nauseous. I told the cabbie to pull over because I knew what was coming next. After about 5 mins of puking the life out of myself I actually felt a little better so I jump back in the car. The cab ride to my house is only 10 mins surely I could make it with a smooth ride home. As the car starts moving my nausea comes back I also realize that I'm sweating like a pig. I try to spark a conversation with driver put I could barley move my mouth. In fact the only thing I could do was moan as if I was in extreme pain. 2 mins go by and I start puking again but this time in his car. Fortunately the driver had paper towels for me to chuck in.

    We're two blocks away from house but I just couldn't take the motion of the car ride any longer. I told the driver to pull over,fell out of the cab on my knees and continued with more vomiting. We finally got to my place. I paid the driver ran into my apartment. Guess what I did? Yep! Crawled to my bathroom and again with puking. Not only am I puking but Im sweating like I have a fever of 110. I couldn't get off the floor of my bathroom. I laid there like a baby who couldn't walk. Thoughts are going through my head that maybe I do have a real fever or I might be suffering from heat exhaustion. I kept thinking that I was going to die. I said to myself if I can't get up of the floor then Im going to have to call 911. However I remembered I had been in a similar situation before where I had took too much so with the jaws of life I forced myself onto my feet and stumbled to my bed. Once I lied down My sweating stopped and I felt more at ease. I finally passed out and woke up feeling a lil dazed. Thankful I had made it through that horrific experience. It was a serious wake up call for me. I will eat edibles again but I will never get ahead of myself like I did the other night.

    Moral of the story is.... No matter how much of a veteran you might think you are if you don't know the potency of your edible take a very small amount and wait over an hour before consuming more. If your a newbie take very little and always make sure you have a spotter so in case you trip balls you will have someone to take care of you. A THC experience should be mentally stimulating and relaxing. If you overdose like I did it will feel as if you just drank 20 shots of Parton.

    I know this might be long but I just wanted to share my experience and knowledge. Thanks for reading!

    Edibles and why even PROs should be careful.

    When you drink first and then consume pot the effects is intensified big time, I've seen it happen many times a person drinking alcohol will smoke some pot and down they go.

    Edibles and why even PROs should be careful.

    Alcohol + Edibles = Bad times...

    We call it the "ghostface killer"

    Consider the same rule when dabbing concentrates :thumbsup:

    I usually keep the edibles to about a 100mg dose. Problem with edibles... Metabolism. Sometimes it'll take 2 hours or more to really get to ya. Takes a little experience and knowledge of what you ingest to do it safely. Homemade edibles is anyone's guess. I've tried to do the math on my own and I believe they were in the neighborhood of 150mg per cookie. Just used 15% to figure amount of thc by volume, middle ground for potency. I used 120g of bud trim (no big leaves), and a pound of unsalted butter. Made about 120 cookies at approx. 150mg per cookie.

    I ate about 1000mg, regretted it for two FULL days. Couldn't do anything, period. Stuck with me till my system evacuated every last bit of it...
