cannabis and the extreme highs

Hey

I just wanted to share an experience with cannabis and find out if any or how many of you relate . I don't know if there will ever be studies regarding the high and how it effects different people but it would be neat to see . I am talking about the extreme high's myself and others might have with cannabis . We all know the classic effects everyone seems to talk to about . Many of them i don't seem to get .. unless i am extremely high . I don't know how it ever comes about but here we go .. a few hours ago i smoked up , the regular amount of cannabis i need which is around a small bong rip or 4 pulls off a joint .. I smoked the same strain i have been for weeks , honestly lately i thought i was getting too used to it or my tolerance went up ( clearly wrong ) It was in the after noon and i hadn't yet smoked . I rolled it pretty good sized .. it seemed to be a normal size but maybe it was thicker than i realized . It is a strain which was said to have high cbd profile which i figure okay , that should turn down the psychoactive effects .

I felt within 5 minutes pretty high and i thought uh oh .. here we go .. let's see what happens . I sometimes get a bit uncomfortable or overwhelmed by all the effects at once or if they are intense and that can come with a heart race and what not but i can usually manage to chill out and enjoy the high . Today the effects just progressed and climbed I felt my heart beating ( normal ) and also tingles ( normal but they were intense ) and then i lost feeling in the legs and arms and hands .. feels different , like they aren't yours . I figured okay .. that can be normal and over come , sometimes goes away in 20 mins ... then i fight tight , tingly in my face some and i was like okay the head buzz and pyschoactive effects are preparing to come on strong , brace yourself kid ... i threw on some music like i do to enjoy a high or sometimes to calm it down .. wasn't working , tried to play some online pool ... couldn't focus and i guess you could say my vision was blurry it was that or i just couldn't concentrate on anything i did or looked at . I suppose people say this happens and is normal i don't know .. they get disoriented if they are messed up . I was handling and trying to manage things , but also trying to embrace it and learn from it ...not let it bother me even though the sensations and visual change was pretty dramatic compared to usual ... but then the nightmare of the high came on and these are the effects that fuck with me and bother me .

I started to feel detached with myself almost as if i was seeing through someone else if you know what i mean . You are the eyes , the vision and brain thinking and seeing but the body isn't yours . It seems mechanical or like it is someone else's ... not a cool feeling for me , and the zoomed in vision ... where your surroundings seem unfamiliar , like they are completely different .. ZOOMed in and enlarged almost ... you feel like you are in a dream or another reality . I thought .. yeah , ill try to overcome this because it doesn't help to let it get to me i need to learn from it so i can handle it .... this is really hard though and it failed so i did what i always have to if this happens ... went outside for a walk .. these walks can be an hour to 4 hours .. i never know when i begin them when the high will subside . I think this one was 90 min to 2 hours range . I was outside and my perception felt wide open .. it was odd .. like a 360 vision almost and of course everything looked fake or unfamiliar , like i had been walking on earth for the first time . I noticed also i was shaking i have tremors going through my body , they didn't last too long but it was odd... probably the anxiety trying to get the best of me maybe ? I walked lots of places and i noticed everything sounded loud as hell ... i hear this as a classic symptom , people say noises become louder and lights become brighter and stand out more which happened and doesn't normally happen for me . When i looked at things my vision would just immediately focus close into something ... its like the rest of the stuff around me didn't exist for however long i was looking at these things .. i obviously had serious cotton mouth ...but the whole idea of feeling like you are walking in someone else's body , being detached from reality and yourself , the changes dramatically in your vision and how you are seeing things ..(basically hallucinating ... you are seeing something you don't see it normally like ) and just feeling lost and out of place ... this hasn't happened for months and i thought by using small doses i could control it and that has worked .. my tolerance has stayed low and i was getting high getting rid of pain etc. medicating normally . I just don't understand how or why all these effects come on ..and some people try to dispute this evidence and start blaming the weed for being laced or this or that but ... i get psycho active effects like this when i get real high and i have had them plenty other times before . They are real , cannabis causes them ... its known but i just wonder how many other people experience this ?

Is this what you guys highs feel like normally? how do you talk to people and function like this? does this just happen when you are super fucking high and you don't normally get that high ? does it ever hit you out of the blue even if you haven't smoked that much or any more than usual? how do you deal with the high? how bad do they hit you? how did you help prevent them? share the effects you get from them and break down what it feels like .... i am really curious and i don't think i have seen any real quality discussions on this topic ( not saying here , i am new but i mean in general ) is this a high you got when your first smoked maybe you used to get it alot but dont now? i have been medicating 6 months now roughly so .. i am new but not brand new ... share your thoughts , stories and insight .. i would love to hear it all! its been a few hours now and i still feel out of place , not normal feeling and still high but not as intensely and no anxiety currently . I am well enough to type ... thanks and sorry for so much detail but this one i feel needed it! and i wanted to be as clear as i could . I hopefully didn't leave out any details or effects but ill post if i think about them . i also kept hearing things ... it sounded like people were shouting things at me periodically ..... i don't know if it was just people talking as i walked by each time it happened but it kept sounding like they were shouting something at me randomly .
 
Uh, dude I think you were fucked up
I definitely was ! I feel a bit spacey right now .. and tired but i feel a lot better , definitely came down from the high a lot . I am supposed to workout tonight . I hope i don't pass out or not feel mentally there enough to do it . I suppose by your comment ... you never have had or have currently these effects of any dose of cannabis smoke?

i don't know what's worse , being paralyzed for 20 mins or 2 hours of what i just went through ... tough call . I felt pretty fucked up as you can tell by the effects i was experiencing . It sucks because they are too much for me , overwhelming yet so many people wish they got them , a lot of stoners don't experience it apparently and want to . They can have it anytime they want if they want to trade highs LOL

Well the OP post was far too long to even look up to but when I think of extreme highs, two things happen: one you're either too high and you get sick, motion sickness falls in and overwhelms you, or you slip into a coma of some sort and the simplest thought becomes difficult. Maybe even emotional. Now this whole eye...deal man. Sounds like an lsd trip or even a mushroom. I've had some pretty majestic highs while getting high first hand. This was before paranoia sets in because the levels become more prevalent in your system. But I'd be driving and my legs would be super light. Just super warm, like a custom blanket was on me. Other times, napping was so easy.
Before all this indica/sativa deal became much more important, it was finding out if the pot was good or not. Now quality isn't hard to spot but knowing that even though an indica has its characteristic high as well as sativa, the two wane in highs because I've had both produce the opposites of feelings on me.
There is hardly any evidence to say that a strain will do what it says because there is enough evidence to say it will do otherwise. That being said, the combination is hard to figure out along with getting a high like you mentioned. You probably hit on an equilibrium that most can't do or whatnot. Honestly I'm not high. But I'm not knocking your high either, just the entire freakin tangent ....evident of 420 church.

I know it's alot of content but i wanted to truly describe what i felt and even that probably doesn't do the job well enough . I am just looking for some sort of advice or person who can relate so i know im not the only person in the world who get's these ridiculous effects from cannabis . It literally feels like what i would read about on a low mushroom or LSD trip like you said . I know some people would love to have this bonus but i hate it and i just want to learn and understand why it happens and if cannabis just is not meant for me . It sucks if it isn't because i do get pain relief from it which is very amazing since i am sore and tense every day . I try to tell people about it and they look at me like i am nuts ... they just feel relaxed maybe a bit intoxicated and if they get too high feel the effects you mentioned , motion sick , spinning .. the green out symptoms but .. i don't get that , i just feel like i am going through some insane psychotic episode of losing my mind like i am on acid without control and if i get a high like that .. i have to stop smoking because i feel the effects staying with me for a while after ... days .. could be longer . I got dp /dr from cannabis as a kid and thats why i originally quit for 12 years so maybe i am not supposed to be smoking , maybe thats why i get these effects . it sucks to think i might have to quit it when its such a great medicine . I don't know .................. there isn't as much info to refer to as i would like and studies have not been done but that's why i reach out to places like this . sorry for the length of that post.

It's alright brah just think about it if it's not for you and the feeling is negative maybe back off. I don't want you to quit pot smoking if you like it but some of this stuff you're mentioning doesn't sound all positive really.
But you got your beliefs set that this may or may not be for you. I was made aware of someone who was in fact allergic to weed. Then having read up on it, it's actually more common than you think but the severity of reaction is all different. Same with alcohol, we blush because alcohol we are actually allergic to it, it's a mild allergy much like dust or summer sneezing could be but others have more severe reactions. If your highs get worse maybe let up on them.
I'm no doctor but hopefully you get your questions answered.
