Dude, you need to check that stash if any
is still available. Sounds to me like you
got a hit of more than just weed. Each
person may respond differently, obviously,
but it sounds to me like you might have
hit some dust, gotten some moldy weed, or
like it was laced with some SERIOUS caca
and was not mere cannibis. Peace out!

Re: Bad Trip On Cannabis. Please Dont Do It Posted: 08-19-07 08:23am
You are not crazy and there is nothing
wrong with you. Some people just don't
react well to marijuana. It can cause
panic attacks and bad feelings. I have
had two bad experiences like yours and I
know there is nothing wrong with me. I
just don't smoke it anymore because it is
not worth it. You are fine. Just stay
away from the weed since your body doesn't
react well to it.

I'm posting this to let
people know how horrible a bad trip can
be, on cannabis. Don't make the same
mistake I did...
It was about 2pm in the school holidays, I
had gone to my friend's house with the
intention of doing marijuana, his parents
were out. I had tried weed before a few
times, and to no effect. And the
experience I had that day changed me
forever and I must say I have learned my
lesson. I urge you all not to smoke weed,
a bad trip is devestating.
Me and my two friends went down to the
bottom garden of the house out onto the
grass. We began the session. I thought
that because it didn't do anything last
time, that if I smoked a ridiculous
amount, it might just do something.
Boy, was I right. Within 15 minutes I was
crying and shaking panting: 'health
question, no no please make it stop' over
and over. The world no longer had
individual sounds; it was all put together
into a non sensicle blur of audio. My
friends were freaking out, they were
talking to me. Then all of a sudden the
dissapeared and their speech echoed for
what seemed like forever.
I then realised that they hadn't
dissapeared; they had just moved and I had
skipped time. I jumped like a startled
cat with a sharp yelp of absoloute terror.
I kept forgetting who I was, and where I
was. I felt like a copy of me was
controlling my body & that I was
trapped forever inside my skull.
I skipped time every few seconds,
screaming frantically with each one. It
was like the world had frozen, then
suddenly it would unfreeze with all the
sound rushing in its wake.
I ran from my friends, up back to the
house, to the garden hose. I completely
drenched myself in an attempt to drown out
the thc. It was unbearable.
I sat crying on my friend's concrete steps
outside rocking back and forth. Then I
fell through the floor, performing
somersaults over and over at an
unbelievable speed, I felt the wind on me
and I fell faster and faster further away
from my body which I could never get back
to again.
I opened my eyes, and screamed harder than
I ever have before, I thought I was dead,
weeping profusely into my arms trying to
shield myself. I then threw up until I
gagged with emptyness.
I wanted to kill myself, to end it.
Luckily I decided that it wasn't worth it,
not quite. I kept telling myself "it'll
be over soon". I've never ever considered
suicide before, it scared me also.
... After what seemed like weeks, it
finally wore off.
Days after that experience, I still had
flash backs that made me jump. Please..
If you, the reader, are reading this and
are thinking of experimenting with
marijuana, I beg you not to.
Sorry this was so long, but i've learned
my lesson.
Say no to
marijuana.

I WAS actually 15 when this happened to
me, I'm nearly 18 now and it still
prevents me from going to many public
gatherings and makes me go cold even when
I smell it..
It was not laced with anything, my friends
did not get the same psychotic effect as I
did.
But there are always the dedicated stoners
who will snigger and put me down - through
my preaching I've learnt to accept it; but
please don't bring that dry sarcastic tone
to such a serious topic.
I hope it doesn't happen to you or anybody
else.

I absolutely agree. Painintheneck... I
guess the other 10% are reading and
replying to this forum. I have no idea
what kind of friends you have, but 90% of
the people I know would sincerely feel bad
and not make fun of such a serious
situation. You and and your 90% obviously
need to grow up.

OK, the exact same thing happened to me.
I'd smoked weed probably 5 or 6 times
before it happened and was fine, but I
know I'll never smoke it again.
2 years ago, 6 of my friends and I went
for a drive and got high. I only took one
hoot and I don't know how much time
passed, but I started tripping out. I
don't remember too much of what was
happening in the real world, because I was
trapped inside my own head, but at first
everything was really funny and I was just
laughing, and telling stories, and
whatever.
Then I started trippin out. I got 'trapped
in my skull' as you guys are
describing...apparently I was nonstop
talking, but wasn't making any sense to
anybody. I got 'threadededed' which was a
word I whipped outa somewhere haha, but
that would be where everything was
appearing in frames and skipping from one
to the next like someone else was
describing.
From there I thought I was dying. I was
convinced I was dying and I just wanted it
to stop. I just wanted everything to stop.
At this point I called 911 and my friend
had to wrench the phone outa my hands and
tell them that it was just a prank call. I
was gunna die if I stopped looking for or
couldnt find the 'thing' to save me. I
have no idea what this 'thing' was but it
got to the point where I was so depressed
and just wanted it to stop that I just
decided it would be better to stop looking
for this 'thing' and die. Once I stopped I
thought I was dead, then it all started
again and I thought that even dying
wouldn't stop it. I almost broke my
friends arm that night when I was pleading
with her to make it stop. At certain
points I would come back to reality and I
tried to convince my friend to just knock
me out but he wouldn't do it.
This explanation I've given you doesn't
even come close to what it was like. It's
impossible for me to describe it because I
don't know what was going on myself, and
if you haven't gone through it you can't
understand what it's like. Anyways moral
of the story...it happened to me too and
people tried to tell me it was just laced
with something, but my friends who were
there and did it too strongly believe that
it wasn't, so I don't know. But to this
day, 2 years later, I get flashbacks of
that night and am scared to drive at
night. I haven't smoked anything since,
and I know that I never will because like
a few of you said, that night nearly
wrecked my life, and its seriously made me
doubt my sanity.
Anybody who says that weed can't do that
to you doesn't have a clue what they're
talkin about because obviously it can and
it has. Abstract I know exactly what
you're talkin about and I completely agree
with you.
Also, the friends who were with me who
frequently smoke weed will also never let
me live it down and often joke about it
like yours do.

penelope67,
no marijuana is not a hallucinagenic, it
is a psychoactive. I have smoked pot for
more than 2yrs and have never had any
hallucinations of any kind. I do know
what true hallucinations are, taken
shroom's more than once and having vivid
hallucination from amphetamine induced
psychosis. You are correct though the
marijuana smoked by our little buddy may
have been laced with anything, in this
case I was thinking somekind of "embalming
fluid".

You are so right there..no hallucination
on weed.No addiction either

I smoked for the third time on Saturday. I
vow never to do it again. People in the
backyard all looked like the same guy who
wasn't even at the party. I was losing it.
I was eventually sick later on, and I have
an intense fear of being sick, which kind
of cripples my life. So being sick then
sure didn't help. I was fine all Sunday,
until about Sunday night and I was so
afraid I was going ot be sick and my heart
was beating fast. It is now almost
thursday and I can still barely sleep. I
went to a walk in clinic on monday at
about 10 pm, and the doctor couldn't seem
to find anything wrong with me. He did
however prescribe Lorazepam. It is
supposed to calm the nerves, which it
doesn't seem to being doing. I am writing
this in an exhausted state, and I just
want to go to sleep...
please someone help me!

Kylee Lo, your experience couldn't have
been more similar to mine. What we
experienced was real. The pot was not
laced because our friends didn't get the
same effect. Even down to the exact detail
of pleading with your friends to knock you
unconscious as 'an escape', also happened
with me.
DiscoDickTease, I don't think there is
anything that can help you - we're stuck
in this now.

my experience Posted: 01-30-08 02:41am
I found this thread after trying to find
out what happened with my most recent
experience. I think everyone brings up
valid points. Marijuana can be pretty
benign if used in moderation and knowing
your limits. At the same time, you can't
deny that there are some pretty bad
experiences that people just can't help.
As with any substance that is not
regulated (and even some that are), it's
not easy to tell how much is too much for
one person. I'm not trying to make this a
soapbox moment, I just mainly want to
share my experience and get it off my
chest.
Last Saturday I got together with a few of
my friends to play Cranium and Wii. A
couple of my friends made pot brownies.
They weren't exactly sure what they were
doing, which was probably the warning sign
that should've stopped me. I've smoked
weed a few times before and actually had a
hard time getting high. But for the most
part, pretty pleasant experiences.
After about an hour after we at the
brownies, we were playing Cranium and
everything started to slow waaaay down. I
was watching the hourglass that measures
each team's turn, and it seemed to be
taking forever. Right then I started
thinking, "this could be bad, but
hopefully I can ride it out" Everyone else
around me (the entire group of 6 people
had brownies) was laughing hysterically
and having a good time. No one seemed to
notice that I hadn't moved in what seemed
like 30 minutes to me.
I walked around a bit and tried to act
like everything was cool, but that seemed
to make it worse. I sat down next to my
girlfriend and asked her if it was okay if
we crashed here. Then randomly I just said
out loud, "can some please calm me down?"
And I think that made everyone else start
to freak out. Seeing them freak out a
little made ME freak out even more.
At that point I told everyone if I just
lay down and fall asleep, maybe I can just
get through it. That's when the world
around me started spinning (as described
in other posts). I don't know what I was
saying out loud and what was my internal
monologue. Any time I tried to drink
water, I thought I was drowning. My
girlfriend laid down with me. She wasn't
as bad as me, but I could tell she was
kind of freaking out.
Eventually she got up to go puke in the
bathroom, and a friend of mine came to
check on me. As soon as he turned around,
I shot up in what I think was an attempt
to escape the "reality" my mind was
trapped in. It honestly felt like
something out of the Matrix where there
was a reality was false and I fought hard
enough, I could break free and get back to
my normal self. But every time I tried, I
felt something pulling me in. Then all the
sounds and sights and sensations started
melting together and became a nightmarish
cycle of pain and depression.
So I started jumping everywhere and
yelling and generally freaking out. What
was in reality my friend trying to calmly
hold me down so I didn't hurt anyone or
myself was, in my head, my friend turning
into a demon that was trying to break me
in half and as I screamed for help, it got
worse. The slightest pressure he put on my
arms or back to hold me down to me felt
like he was snapping my bones. Nothing
anything was saying around me was making
any sense. I thought for sure that I was
in a fake reality and nothing in my past
actually happened.
To use the Matrix again, imagine if you
were stuck in between worlds and there was
a static of pain and scary images and you
were trapped in that limbo forever; that's
what I honestly thought had happened. I
was praying that "the Matrix" would have
some compassion and cut me off so I
wouldn't have to live through that.
Basically, I wanted to die. I kept
picturing my girlfriend's green sweater
(she was wearing at the time). I got so
sad that she might not even be real and
tried to hold on at least that memory. I
felt like I was trapped in this state for
years, but it all happened in less than an
hour.
My friends called an ambulance and some
police showed up. I started to vomit
violently and it felt like it was bursting
out of every hole in my head. I couldn't
breath and I felt like wouldn't stop
puking. The police tried to restrain me
but I think I freaked out on them, too.
When they tried to get me to say my name,
I started yelling gibberish. I remember
being strapped into a stretcher and the
lights of the ambulance. I felt extreme
cold and I thought I was going into
another level of hell.
Once we got the hospital, I started
noticing images and sounds were becoming
more consistent and timing wasn't jumping.
I could feel the bruises on my body. I
started to realize that it was over and I
began to calm down. My voice was shot from
all the screaming I did, and my chest was
sore from vomiting to much and so
forcefully. My limbs were bruised from
struggling with my friends and the EMT
workers. I wasn't responsive to anyone,
but I knew I was going to be okay. I felt
very tired and cold. I overheard a nurse
saying I was going through withdrawl.
I was discharged within a matter of hours
and was back home by 5am. What felt like
years upon years to me lasted only a
matter of a few hours. I slept for most of
the next day, but when I was awake, I
would cry uncontrollably and was extremely
depressed. I went to work the next day and
although I was tired, it was good to keep
my mind occupied.
It's two days later and I decided to check
on line to see if there were any similar
experiences. It's "reassuring" somewhat
that I wasn't the only person that went
through this, though I certainly don't
which it ever to happen again to me or
anyone else. I know that this thread is
years old, but I wanted to share my
experience. I'm not trying to change
anyone's position or opinion. All I can
say is that if I knew something like this
was possible, I would've certainly made
better decisions that night.
Thank you, abstract, for sharing and best
of luck and health to you in the future.

bad trips on weed? Posted: 02-03-08 16:35pm
I had been smoking for like two and a half
years and everything was great. i would
smoke on the weekends with friends and be
fine the next day. until, one weekend i
wanted to smoke with a friend that had
never smoked before and bought an 8th
blunt from a different friend. To make a
long story short i ended up pounding the
blunt alone that night in like 20 minutes.
towards the end of the blunt i couldnt
even hold the lighter anywhere near the
damn thing.
everything was okay until we walked into
his house. it was like walking into a fun
house. i got chills down my back and time
started to skip. i started to think that i
would never get out of this state of mind
and freaked out. i started to think about
all kinds of crazy caca. like, if my whole
life was a dream or if i even existed. i
didnt want to move, i was so scared. faces
were slurred and i heard my friend talking
to me but it felt like he was miles away.
his worried looks didnt help my case...
but i survived.
after that night i was too scared to even
drink. i was afraid i would slip back into
that state of mind and freak out. i went
through therapy and ended up with real bad
anxiety and trying to take pill for it and
everything. this is all over the course of
this past year.
i eventually found away to forget about it
for a while and i can get drunk now with
out a problem... but im still scared to
get back to the bud. i was an addict so
now i have cravings and even the smell
makes me want it really back, even the
thought of good past experiences makes me
want it.
im going to try again this weekend.
hopefully i dont flip, and if i do haha
these are definitely my famous last words.
lol Wish Me Luck!!!

ObeyMyDog, thank's so much for the
contribution. The thread may be years old
but I still haven't forgotten the
experience (and I haven't done weed since
either). I related to your experience in
every way. The time skipping, the paranoid
delusions, the horrifying beliefs that you
don't exist or that you believe reality is
fake. Your comparison to 'the matrix'
really put it into perspective. I hope
you're doing well since though. I get
depressed regularly since my bad
experience and have developed many types
of OCD. Come to think of it: I honestly
can't remember what I was like before
doing marijuana.
kevinkoehler85, you're brave to try it
again, I hope it goes well for you. What
you experienced was a taste of the trip
'gone wrong'. Let's hope it never happens
again.
Thanks guys

hi, i'm italian, so sorry in advance for
my english, i just wanted to report that,
by using marijuana,it's possible to
trigger "latent psychosis", since THC is
a POWERFUL psychoactive. i speak cause of
my studies (i'm almost medic) and of my
experiences...when i was 17 (now i'm 24),
i tried MJ by eating it in form of
cookies...well,i think it was the most
terrible experience of all my life; i
think it was something like a "near-death"
experience...i lose the sense of time and
space, i started to think of myself as a
"soul", even if my body was "all in place"
and i was still walking, so i came to the
conclusion that i was seriously dead (a
friend of mine, also in a bad
trip,convinced me about it)...yup,the trip
is ended, but i had difficult years, i
developed some kind of obsessive
compulsive disorder (or maybe just
triggered it), so, when i'm alone or a i
feel sad, i tend to think about that
experience ("what if i'm really dead??"
that's a stupid question i kown, but it
freaks me out) or i got caught sometimes
in endless thoughts about reality and
myself, almost the ones tha you can find
in OCD forums...i try to control them, but
it's difficult...mind can be a ugly
trap...just remember, MJ is a DRUG, no
more or less, so be prepared...no one can
say if it will trigger something into you,
just think twice if you would take the
risk...
i hope of being of some help

I think a major problem is that you can
never really trust the substance to be
pure and uncut. I had a very disturbing
experience a few years ago where the guy
who was supposed to be in a loving, caring
relationship with me actually laced the
marijuana we were sharing with heroin,
'for a laugh'. I had no awareness of
anything being amiss when I suddenly found
myself trapped between the floorboards of
a galleon out at sea, utterly terrified
for my life. I tried to speak but nothing
came out and I could only see his smiling
face looming in front of me. Coming back
down, I was aware that that I had lost an
hour or so. It all seemed somehow
depersonalised but the realisation that
this room, and my boyfriend's smirking
grin, was normality and not the galleon
thing, gave me such a fright that I
panicked and became completely paranoid.
Needless to say I dumped him but I kept
banging into him at college and every
time, I began to shake and have panic
attacks. I developed chronic anxiety and
social phobia and it continued for several
years. I met him again years later and
decided try to lay the ghost by inviting
him in for a coffee. We talked about that
time and how it had turned me into a
paranoid wreck for years and he seemed
apologetic. Someone came to the door and I
answered it and when I came back he
watched me finish my coffee then asked me
with that nasty smirk if I felt okay
because he had just put acid in my cup!
I seemed to become superhuman in my fear
and rage and I physically threw him out.
He hadn't done anything, it turned out,
but he showed himself to be the same sick
and twisted fool from years before.
Sadly, I find it hard to trust ANYONE
nowardays And I have never
taken a spliff from anyone since that day.
