Feeling weird when smoking marijuana

Man, me and my brother smoked for the first time ever today. It was his birthday and we bought a $10 sack of some really good stuff according to what his really "experienced" friend said. I mean this guy smokes all day everyday. Anyway, first thing I noticed was my f**** throat was on fire. Then all of a sudden it was like I got slapped in the face. I got light headed. Everything turned white, with like little flashes of purple for what seemed a few hours but was only like 30 seconds. I literally thought I was melting I was so hot. Is that normal Then it got to where I couldn't feel my arms or legs and couldn't focus on anything. When my brothers first kicked in he was like, "What the fuk yall doin way over there?" He was yelling and was only like 10 feet away. To me it felt like my heart was on fire too. Everything was really slow feeling which was funny and I couldn't remember what had happened 2 seconds after it happened ;-) My brother experienced the same thing. It was "TRIPPY!!" We both got Cottonmouth like a motherfuk. I kept looking for something to drink but would forget to drink anything. It felt like I had peroxide on my tongue all bubbly and stuff, my spit was white as snow too. I couldn't feel my tongue I was biting on it and couldn't even feel it, Crazy sh*t. There was only 5 of us and we were standing in the kitchen but I kept thinking someone was in the living room. o.O I thought I could hear the front door opening too. Weird as hell.

Anyway, After I came down a little bit I was feeling pretty damn good though. It probably wouldn't have been as bad if we would have been buy ourselves, cause we both hate loud people sober and when we were high it was 100% worse. I actually got really pissed off at this one guy cause he wasn't smokin and he was being loud as hell on purpose. O yea, my brother was constantly asking what time it was, I mean like every 5 seconds. And the whole time we were high, we were swearing we would never do it again, but (haha) I wouldn't mind smokin a little just me and him and just chillin on the couch. The first 15-30 minutes was torture though I literally thought I was dying. The other guy said I was overreacting, but it felt like I was being stabbed in the right side of my chest. Oh and I had heart surgery when I was young, hope that wasn't part of the chest burning.

Ok so yesterday I was at the mall and I smoked with my boyfriend before I went in. When I got into the mall I instantly felt very strange. Not my normal high. We were in a store and I told my boyfriend I was going to go find a bathroom cause I was gonna throw up. As I started walking, my whole body started tingling in a bad way and everything became white. I literally could not see anything but I kept walking for some reAson and I could feel myself banging into people But I literally could not see anything. I ended up running into a metal pole and collapsing on the ground. Some girls picked me up and sat me down in a chair and were asking me all these questions. When I was sitting in the chair and taking deep breAths I could see again but then my bf came and I told him what hAppened and he said we needed to go outside for fresh air. I didn't want to get up but I did and once I started wlking, everything turned white again and he had to drag me out. It was a really scary experience and I'm wondering y that happened when it's never happened before. I couldn't even feel the pAin in my head from hitting the metal until I wasn't high Anymore. And sry about the typos I'm on an iPod touch.

I feel you on the muscle twitching.

I've been having bad problems with that recently, and it seems to be getting worse and worse every time I smoke. It started out a few months ago where I would start shaking as though I were cold, even though I did not feel cold at ALL, but I could force myself to stop almost completely, or at least enough to where it wasn't as noticable. But the muscle spasms, particularly in my legs, is getting worse. Last night when I smoked, I experienced stimulus-sensitive myoclonus-like symptoms; it was extremely disabling and nothing I did would make my muscles stop contracting so severely, and any noise made my muscles clench up tighter and the twitching would become more severe, moving through my entire body at some points. I was sitting at my computer desk, and I had to move away from it because I was starting to shake the whole table just by my leg or hand touching it. I eventually got so exhausted from my body being over-worked, that I passed out.

I read somewhere that this can be caused by vitamin depletion, and taking a multi-vitamin and drinking plenty of water should help make it go away. Except that I am also an MDMA user, and take Vitamin C, Magnesium, B-complex, and 5-HTP on a daily basis to help prevent oxidized dopamine and severe muscle contractions that MDMA is known to cause, particularly in your jaw, so I think I have my vitamins covered. Hah. I'm starting to think this could be one of those side-affects they warn you about when taking Tramadol, which I started taking in November. Or maybe I'm just a paranoid stoner. Haha.

SoUnds LiKe you Are an UpPers PeRson!

SUCKS for you, thats gonna be exspensive and embarrassing.

I think that you should not use drugs. I like Weed but I also like my friends, my friends did not like weed as much as I did. On vacations I would leave the premisis to smoke and still do. They do not get mad about it cause they nor their children will ever see me with it. My point is if its if your smokin just cause your friends do or some hot chick smokes then you got the wrong reasons. If your friends don't like you cause you do not smoke that does not make you lame, makes them lame.

On a side note I have not had a "common cold" since I left my drug tested job and started smoking again. Its been 8 years! I used to get whatever cold funk went around the office. Now I never do. Not sure if I don't get sick or if my weed chill is stronger than the cold sickness.

Anyone else notice that, me and my two other weed heads, we never get sick.....a long ass time ago we were all taking a biology class...learned about cold virus......and no smokin with a cold rule was enstated like 15 years ago. Anyways none of us has ever had a cold in all this time, and we have been really keeping track the last 7-8 years...least I have.

Dude calm down u had some dank and was reallllyyyy stoned happens to me too. You were coming down, you're just not used to smoking so my advice is toke everyday and have peace with the world then u will truly be one with the breeze

I actually experienced a panic attack a little while back. First of all let me say that I am not an everyday smoker... i guess more of a weekend smoker lol.. but anyways for a long time all of my highs were very nice. There was no paranoia, muscle spasms, or hallucinations. It put me in a very good mood, i couldnt stop laughing, smiling, and everything just felt..good lol although i did have cotton mouth and had a hard time drinking or eating (but it really wasnt a big deal to be honest). Ok so for my birthday my friends planned on smoking me out, and i was totally ok with this lol i figured if i smoked alot then me high would be amazing... well.. it was at first.. but after i dont even kno how many bowls were filled.. things started to go wrong.. I couldnt concentrate on anything other than the fact that i thought i was dying. I cant even explain the feeling.. all i remember is everything being pitch black (we were smoking in my backyard at night) and that i literally thought i was in the process of going to hell... after i walked around for an hour or so in circles praying to god lol i started to sober up... i look back at it now and realize that the weed i smoked that day was hella good lmao! but the point to this experiece is that you HAVE to take things slow. No matter the situation. There is absolutely nothing wrong with taking a good hit and just sitting back and relaxing for a lil while to see how strong the weed is! And when i say sitting back and waitin i mean to actually wait for a good 3-5 min or so lol you will not feel the effects kick in immediately (for most weed). So just make sure your in a good environment, take things slow, and have fun! Enjoy your weed man. It should be something that you really get your monies worth out of, not something you just rush. I hope this helps you.

ive been smoking for 1 year and my symptoms are tiredness, cottonmouth, munchies(hungry), and many more. my first time hullucinating was when i smoked blueberry kush and i felt like a feather meaning my whole body was numb, and i had a back pain before i smoked it and i felt great. sometimes, my heart rate would go up and it would start to beat really fast.

your an idoit you can not delvelop schzophrenia from cannabis. there is very little (pretty much none at all) evidence that if you have schzophrenia then smoking can trigger it.

This is actually not true. I mean I'm no neurologist, nor have I done any type of firsthand research on the matter, but I am currently 20, and I have been smoking on a semi-regular basis since I was 16 (taking periodic breaks for the sake of tolerance/job opportunities), and I have no problem quitting when I need to. (Currently I haven't smoked for appx 3 weeks)



This d****t is just fear-mongering and doesn't know what he's talking about. Note how he only has citations for one of his claims, which is a quantitative statement that doesn't bear any significance to his argument since he doesn't state the difference between 20%, 10% , or 60%.



I currently attend a top 10 university and I assure you, many of my friends and I have accumulated our fair share of accolades and honors. The same friends are the ones that I casually rip bong hits with every once-in-a-while.



Toke on.

Hey guys. Okay so something different is happening with me. Things i almost can't explain properly to other people.

For example....When listening to music there is sometimes an option (Windows Media Player) to rerun an interval in a song over and over and over again. Except with me, i was laying in bed...and it was similar to this competitive repitition except not with sound...with my vision. Every once in awhile (before this) i would get this.....It justt looks like the world is spinning, but instead of doing a continous spin, my vision spins vertically for approximately .5 a second, then resets to the original view. (Almost like im eyeing the same chick down about twice a second and nothing else). Anyway....ive gotten this before and its just a 1 second thing where i can shake my head and it will go away. But i was so high i wanted to try something. It started, but i was actually able to KEEP myself in that stage....watching this weird sh*t go on for about 1 minute, i then stopped.

About 6 months later i was in my friends car while they went to the store. I layed down (tired obviously) and closed my eyes. You know that blur you get that is almost "white" when you close ur eyes, almost as if little ammounts of light are still getting through? Well.....i made sure there was no light. However even without light i still see this blurish kind of effect. Anyways....randomly i saw a figure out of the blur, it was a number 3. Not big. Not bold. It was definately a 3 though. I focused on the number 7....i could see 7. You're probably thinking, not too weird right? Well.....if any of u know how computers work...the closest example was that i was seeing ME WORKING LIKE A COMPUTER. In a way that i could actually see (with this texturless blur) my brain going through its set of Random-Access-Memory. I was thinking about opening the door of the car. (This is hard to explain...best i can do)...Anyway, sub-conciously i could see my brain doing its work. Almost as if .... here is what you need to do. Here are the millions of different ways at which you could achieve this. (Almost as if a near-infinite list was flying by my eyes from the back of my head to way in front of me).And then all of a sudden i saw things dissapear from this "list". Almost as if my brain was finding the best way to achieve this goal (of opening the car door). When i saw the number 3, it wasnt a strict 3. It was millions of 3's (if i kept myself focusing 3) zooming by me.

couple days later i was smoking in my basement and as im hitting my bong.......i get this weird f*****g feeling. I was seeing myself in 3rd person from an angle to my top left. Not a strict vision. Just little glimpses of myself standing there. Now...i do have a semi-photographic memory as i have just kind of discovered (i just thought everyone thought that way :-P). So it could very well be my imagery at its best. I have always wondered what i would look like in 3rd person.

Now im pretty sure there are many logical reasons. Please do not answer if you do not know what you're talking about, or what i'm talking about. Its very hard to explain the sh*t ive been seeing...especially in words. Yes i have been smoking Grade A marijuana. I just want to get some input on what exactly is happening with me. My best friend just went paranoia schizo on me last year. Whoever i tell always gives me an expression of "wtf?" Either they dont believe me, or they say i should stop smoking weed as soon as possible. I dont like any of these...i want to know what is going on with me, and ultimately what to do.

The only thing that bothers me....is that when i have these weird "sightings" ....i can actually control it and keep myself in that state of mind. I mean i know some of these things are generally normal (in a way), but the fact that i can actually keep myself in that state? It scares me.

these are all normal symptoms of smoking marijuana, i once had a truly amazing experience when me and some friends decided to smoke about 3g of some proper good sh*t in a bong, whenever i looked at something and focused on it, it felt like it was just me and that object in the whole universe thinking deep thoughts about each other and when i looked at my hands they looked huge and as if they were miles away! i felt like a dreamy giant astronaut walking across the dusty surface of the moon, when in reality it was just 3 very stoned guys walking around a kitchen talking slowly about deep deep sh*t haha, truly amazing!! i say live free and keep smokin that sh*t! peace

1.yea i get real parranoid when i  smoke it ,for cotton mouth       -               drink tea or coke

i have been smoking weed for quite awhile and i get this high like everything get really loud and then i cant hear sh*t but befor i started regular weed i have a very tramatic expieriance with a synthetic version called K2 and i felt like i was going to die and i only took one puff and it felt like someone was taking a sledge hammer a pounding as hard as they could on my head and back but since then i get pretty good high's some better than others but my new favorite weed is called hydro its amazing but i tell u that day o tried K2 i will never forget. good luck

Oh people are you that stoned that you don't know that Pot is a mild hallucinogen. If you are anxious or depressed pot can greatly enhance these feelings. It can cause you to have panic attacks (pounding heart, etc.) while high. The effects of smoking dope are evident on this forum. Nobody even knows what the stuff does to you. Sober up people and enjoy your life...
