Did my friend give me synthetic weed

Hey bro, I know the feeling. Seriously. I don't have my comp now, but when this happened I started a word doc and would try to 'come back to reality'/ piece shit together that I didn't even know could be broken every day, that doc is now 200+ pages long.

Let me cut to the chase. I used to work at a night club and would talk with the manager about whatever, I described this to him and told him how it changed me etc so I was scared to try lsd. Do you know what he told me, after I described it just like you did? He is completely unphased and goes, "I think you were just high".

This may not mean much now but this is the best advice I can give.

I don't know you but I know I was in some ways sheltered as a kid. I could find out about stuff but my parents were anxious, telling them about drugs was out of the question.

Weed is in a way more powerful than its made out to be especially if you have underlying anxiety. And the bong is on such a higher level than just hitting a joint or bowl. Your story does not surprise me at all.

When I was going through this what helped me the most was rationalizing like this. Everything around me is exactly the same as it was before. I am exactly the same as well. My brain produces thoughts I have no control over. It produces irrational thoughts. There are irrational thoughts and there is the world. The thoughts don't change the world. Everything is fine.

The anxious brain will continue thinking about 'dimensions' etc. This is creativity, this is not even worth attempting to understand. It isn't even weed.

What weed does is it opens you to the ridiculousness of your own thinking. This is too much for a lot of us and we spiral into anxiety especially from hitting the bong.

Try to focus on things outside of you. Understand yourself and the world as what you DO what OCCURS, not your hypothetical philosophical emotional predictions.

Philosophy is a real thing you can study if you like, but your brain did not gain access to new dimensions. And your bong hit did not manipulate the entire universe. Accept that your mind will think crazy shit, and just say "ok"

I know how unsettling it is right now, the best thing to do is consider 100% of it IRRATIONAL THOUGHTS and MEANINGLESS. your mind is fighting for the opposite but you know better.

Try as best you can to live your life. And enjoy things around you. A bit of exercise can help calm too. Who's to say, but I actually think ultimately this is a good experience.

You have to just let your brain cells scream for a while even though they don't know shit

Being that high can do that to you, a lot of people don't think about this way because they've never hit that point but weed is a mild psychedellic and at high doses can cause effects similar to that of LSD.

Brief story - was hanging out with a friend one night, getting ready to go to the adult store to look at pipes and he packed a bong. I asked him not to throw hash in it and he did... packed it in such a way the hash was hidden inside the weed. I took a big old rip of it and.. for the next hour or so I did feel like I was tripping, having already had experience with other psychedellics (namely LSD, mushrooms and DXM). Ended up needing someone else to drive my car because I wasn't capable after that, the body high was ridiculously intense.

So like the person up top said, you will be fine. I would expect much stronger reactions if you got that ripped on fake weed. Plus, if you've smoked before, you know the taste. You would have tasted a notable difference if it was synthetic, it tastes and smells nothing like actual weed.

You will be fine. You just got super, duper stoned. Take it easy, get some good sleep and food in you and you will be fine. You're just feeling aftereffects as if it were a hangover due to the higher dose that your body wasn't used to. Please do update if you can on how you're feeling now that some time has passed, but this will pass. Weed isn't anything so intense it's going to mess you up for life, remember that. It really is the safest drug out there in terms of side effects.

Maybe it was laced

Hi, I have had this exact experience! Please look into Depersonalization Disorder.

If you find yourself resonating with the symptoms, you are probably among the many who have had their dissociation triggered by weed.

There are many, many studies showing that marijuana can be a major trigger for mental illness. Namely anxiety/panic attacks, dissociation, and psychosis.

It also worsens depression long term. Do not smoke again, and see a therapist.

The feeling will go away or at least lessen with time, I promise.

There is still a possibility that it was synthetic weed, but I have no way of knowing that.

Consider your family history of mental illness, where the weed came from, and do research on how synthetic weed feels vs how panic attacks/dissociation feels.

Then draw your own conclusion. But don't take chances smoking again. I did and it was a
huge mistake and made things much worse.

Good luck

you smoked some DANK weed .. dont worry about it too much
