I’ve never smoked and I’ve only done edibles once. And it was by and large the worst experience of my life. I literally walked to a corner in the kitchen sat down and asked people to not let me get up because I was having thoughts of throwing myself out of the window.
So I just sat there with my senses completely messed up. Hallucinating ( I don’t think you are supposed to right? ) and completely trapped in a trip I did not want to be in and wondering if I died and gone to hell and that’s how my brain was coping with dying.
So yeah. Not a good time.
I’m wondering what everyone else’s experience is.
And is it luck that causes you to have a good or bad trip? Is it something we can influence ?
I’ve had a terrible trip once. Smoked a whole joint when I was 14 in highschool. I hugged my friends arm who didn’t smoke any of it and begged him to walk me home (we were also ditching class for the first time lol). I lived right behind an elementary school and just as we were approaching, they let all the tots out. Pure paranoia as every kid is staring into my soul. Once we got there, I realized I couldn’t be home or I’d get in trouble so I asked him to walk me back to school. Back up the hill we went just for me to turn around and go home because school ended.
I had a similar experience to yours from a J once though. Shared between 3 people but it knocked me out. Had to lay down in an alley for what felt like 15 minutes, probably like 2 tops. My visuals were completely disorienting and it felt like the ends of the alley were getting perpetually farther, like a cursed toilet bowl at 3 am. We all shimmied to Tim Hortons and had some donuts. They were unreal.
What’s important to consider here in this post is type and dosage. Edibles are volatile as is. Homebrew browies or cookies has the added bonus of being difficult to spread equal dosage to, so some bites might be mind-killers while others might not even effect you at all. And if you don’t consume, you really shouldn’t be having more than 10mg of THC, where I’ve had some brownies that sit at 200mg per square. That’s why I like thc-sugar candies. Limited surface area = hard-capped dosage.
Beyond that, you must contend with your tummy’s digestive state, blood flow (working out etc), additional narcotics that can play off each other like alcohol (don’t mix!)… It’s not as wickedly complicated as I might be making it out to be, just don’t consume when you’re hungry or working out etc.
What did you take, do you know?
Three of these gummies
And yeah. I’m not sure if I’ll ever try it again since it was such a bad experience. But if I do I’ll definitely be more mindful of it.
You took 3 of those and you’ve never been stoned before? That’s why you had a bad time. I don’t smoke concentrates, just flower, but I do smoke daily and I would take 3 of those. You should have had 1, honestly if it’s your first time you should have only had a half of 1.
Indeed. The people that I took it with weren’t first timers but weren’t super experienced either.
