Horrible Life Changing Trip.

People that take prescription drugs for emotional/mental problems, shouldnt do any other drugs. Your brain is different then everyone elses, chemically imbalanced, or something. So the outcome of your high is gonna be different also.

Please Note: My sole intention of this post is to educate on a potential ill effect of smoking a large quantity of marijuana mixed with a prescription drug taken daily. I had been smoking marijuana quite regularly for about 7-8 months. To be honest I quite enjoyed it. Iâ??m now 23, and I have been taking an generic brand of the anti-depressant Paxil since I was 17. So I smoked daily not really caring about any side effect might occur when mixing both drugs. In my early day of smoking it Rating: 5

All of our brains are different. All of our highs are different.

Thats funny to think about. This plant that gives me such a familiar buzz is giving everyone else a completely different buzz. Which mean the high I am currently experiencing is completely unique from and other high that has ever been had by any other person in all of history. This high is right now, the single most unique thing that is happening in history right now. Makes you think.

I've never had an experience like yours, but there have been times where I'd keep hearing this high pitched noise ringing in my ears and I'd get kind of a sharp pain in my head. The thing I noticed though, is it's only there when you focus on it, if you just try to ignore it and enjoy something you're doing like watching tv or listening to music it slowly dies away.

Maybe you're just mentally unstable in general. No offense, but uh yeah...

Besides I don't think 8 months is a long enough time period to know whether or not it was the marijuana that did you in.

I've had 2 of these bad trips off weed before that kinda sounded like yours bad like it sounded like everything was yelling and it was all black. But those 2 times i smoked large amounts of some schwag. So i just smoke diggity and it doesn't happen don't know why...

That's crazy....that kinda sounds like the anxiety attacks that I have when I DON'T smoke weed. Ever since I was around 4 years old, I've had these incredibly overwhelming panic/anxiety attacks where my brain disconnects itself from reality, and my body and brain just "lock up". I was diagnosed with "Generalized Anxiety Disorder". The panicked breathing, feelings of near impeading doom or death, the blackness, loss of reality...all of it.

I've taken sooooo many different meds and combinations of meds for it (Paxil being one of them strangely enough), and nothing ever really stopped it. Some combos did help a little to the point where I would have them less frequently (about every 4-6mos, I guess), but when I was 12 I discovered her majesty, the mighty ganja.

I smoked regularly for a while, but because of cost and legality, I decided to try the meds again, hoping that pharmaceutical science had progressed a little further, but to no avail after 4 years of combos and single prescriptions. Still I would have these attacks about every 4-6mos regardless of what I took.

I decided to go clean...nothing, no weed, no pills, nothing.....BAD idea! I had these attacks more frequently, about every 2mos. So by the time I was 17, I decided that I would try weed once again, as I remembered that it had helped me out when I was younger and since I now had a good paying job, and low and behold I've only had a handful of attacks since then. I still only get the attacks when I go through a dry spell or a "cleansing period". Huh, different strokes I guess.

I would say that Bob the Awesome was spot on with the Depersonalization. Do some research and see if it makes sense.

Good luck.

The worst trip I had was when i was down in Colorado in one of the towns surrounding Denver. At that time I only smoked once a day after work and that was plenty to last me till I went to bed and that wasn't even that great of weed.

When I was down there with a few friends, we ended up all pitching in on an eighter. Smoked a few bong loads the first night and got pretty ripped. Best stuff I've ever smoked. So the next night, we roll the remaining stuff into three joints and proceeded to smoke two of them. I was tripping balls hardcore.

In the beginning I ended up puking. I had some drinks but I never drink that much because I don't like drinking past just a good buzz. So knowing this I wasn't even thinking about the alcohol as a possibility.

I just kept thinking I was and I was praying to God promising him that I would lay off of the drug. Mostly because I was not as edjucated with the plant as I am now. I started thinking it was laced and that I was going to die right there in a hotel in Colorado. Not the way I wanted my life to end.

So after tripping like crazy on the bathroom floor, I realized things would be fine. I then walked out and my two friends were asking me if I was alright. (They also asked me when I was in the bathroom, I think I replied with soemthing like "we'll see" or "I think so".) I said I was ok and I just needed to sit down for a bit. After I sat down I COULD NOT MOVE.

I started tripping again. This was a different type of trip though. I didn't worry about dieing, I just couldn't move no matter what I did. I thought about moving cause I desperitely wanted some water in the bottle next to me. Although actually moving was the most uncomforting thing mentally that I couldn't get myself to do it. I ended up just passing out sitting in the chair without moving.

Obviously, I did continue to smoke. Now that I know more about the plant, I know that I just smoked more then I should have but I wasn't in any danger.

I haven't had this happen again, but I think I kind of want it to. I would be going into it with a completely different state of mind about the plant. So i think I could turn it into a good experience with the kind of effects it appears to have at that kind of high. I may be wrong, but I would be willing to give it a shot. Just as long as I had someone with me to calm me if it did turn into a bad trip.

similar thing happened to this chick... she was into me and I assumed she was a regular head, so I offered a toke or two, she puffed like a veteran... man she went downstairs and all I start hearing is how she's gonna meet god and jesus and all this other shit.. it was nuts... turns out it was JUST a trip she was having... her friends went ape shit saying how I tried drugging her, but my friend (a chick) assured them everything was on the level... So the trip out girl never looked me in the face ever again...

I found the whole thing hilarious
