Is it normal that i tripped the fuck out on weed?

Alright. So I'm a common pot smoker. I do it everyday, before school, after a few times, and at night. So I'm pretty used to the high. I'm not sure what kind I get, it looks like Maui Wowi.

So anyway, I went to my best friends house and her sister asked if we wanted to smoke one real quick. My friend smokes, but not that often. When we went outside, her sister warned me that it was really strong. I was like, yeah okay. So she took maybe two hits, and she was fucked up. Which was surprising to me, for her it normally takes at least a bowl.

So after her two hits, she gave the pipe to me, and told me I could smoke the whole thing. So I was like okay, it's whatever man. I had no idea. I finished the bowl, except maybe one hit was left. By the time I got to it I kept seeing shit in my vision. Like, I couldn't legitimately see things, but my eyes blurred shapes and shit. I was fine at first, I felt high and happy.

After we went into the living room again though, I started freaking the fuck out. I kept thinking the colors on the wall ( from the T.v. ) were my actual background. They were a darkish purple, so I got really upset, I started thinking I was having a "bad trip". That fucking like triggered my mind into seeing a bad shape in everything I looked at. The bad shapes started with a phone cord. It was shaped like a old witch with a hunch. In my mind, anyway. I then started seeing that in my blurred vision. Then I started to see bad things in the carpet, and in a pile of clothes, or in the designs on the couch.. I was so scared.

I started hearing shit to, and I remember when I was sitting on the floor trying to turn on my phone. It was extremely difficult at the time, so I got even more upset. My friends sister came in and asked me if I was tripping yet, and I was liike, " I don't know why, but everyone's happy but me! I'm just so scared.." but I sounded so different to myself. After I said that, my friend, her sister, and her sisters boyfriend, all were like Ahh. Shhh. And started laughing really hard, while they all said shut the fuck up a bunch of times. It made me laugh, because they litterely were like, " Shut the fuck up, hhahahahhaha, shut the fuck up, ahhshahahahhaha, shut the fuck up. " . It was intense. I couldn't even watch cartoons without freaking out. Like in my head, every channel I went to was sad. I thought everyone on the show was upset, and I kept thinking it was a sign.. I don't even know. I tried watching Adventure Time, and got upset, when I figured out that it was only a commercial. I know that I just really wanted something with a green background. I kept going through the channels, but finally decided on leaving the screen with the on demand menu. The blue calmed me.

Later on I kept picturing Simba from the Lion King everywhere, so that cheered me up. I then fell asleep. Does anyone know what happend? Because I sure as hell don't. It was scary though, and from now on I'm smoking that strong shit during the day. I want to see the sun, not pitch fucking black. Yeah.

    Hi. You know there are a few different questions that talk about either blacking out or freaking our having a super bad trip on weed or breaking out in a cold sweat and feeling like you're going to die and I think they are all connected. Or at least most of them. 20 years ago I smoked a single hit, wake and bake and had a "trip" that made me scared for my life, soaking wet with sweat, seeing horns growing out of all my friends heads. My heart RACED. I was pale and almost blacked out. I Would have if I hadn't tucked my head between my knees like a drunk who is trying to stop the world from spinning. I literally thought one of my friends was the devil and I had died from an overdose and I was now in Hell. Not a good thing to believe. To say it was scary is an understatement. It was SO bad that it took me a year and a half before I really recovered. I believe I even had something like PTSD because of it. I became shy and nervous and could not make eye contact without forcing myself, among other things. All this while sober mind you. I used to think that it was laced that day, and maybe it was, BUT I have to make this clear, I have had about 10 more experiences like this with weed. I didnt go back to hell, but some or all of the other symptoms were present everytime. Everytime I felt so bad that I thought I might die. I did NOT smoke "too much" as people are fond of surmising. I never smoke more than 2 hits. In almost all cases, I had already smoked the same bag of bud many times before. It was not laced and it was not "spice". It was good medium strength weed, nothing more or less. This can happen from one green hit of normal ganja. I believe it has to do with minor imbalances or surplusses of certain enzymes and/or natural chemicals in our brains that adversely effect the firing neurons in certain parts of the brain. Although I have not pinned down exactly what that is, because I'm not a brain scientist, I have noticed that being short on sleep, strung out or "burning the candle at both ends", recently having recovered from sickness, and/or being hung over, have all appeared to contribute. So I avoid weed unless I am feeling strong and rested and well nourished. Unfortunately, even when I felt great it has happenned anyway. Most of the time tachycardia (irregularly fast heartbeat) will not kill you, but IF you have any kind of heart condition, be warned that the likelihood of a heart attack rockets upwards in the 30 minutes after injesting THC. Yes, it is true. Look it up. Be careful peeps. I love my occassional ganja, but its not the harmless magical friend that everyone wants to claim it is. ALL drugs have their consequences. And overall personal body chemistry is different from one day to the next ( and even more so as we get older ). The More You Know... cue the jingle...

  • Have you ever done hallucinogens before. If you have, weed is entirely different for you. After I have taken hallucinogens a bunch of times, I basically trip ever so mildly off of pot, which is totally normal if you have used other things in the past. if not, then I don't know

    First, find out if there was any chance the shit was laced. Doesn't sound like PCP.

    Then make sure it was actually weed, not spice your friend was passing off as weed. Spice is made from different plants (all depending on what brand you get) and some of them are more psychedellic than weed.

    And it might be a good idea to get yourself analyzed by a professional, to make sure the weed isn't triggering any sorts of prexisting conditions.

    @Sassyfrassylassie , it's also polite to actually answer the question. Since you know, that is the whole point of this site. Yeah.
