Is it normal to get this feeling when high

so just to clarify it’s the best part of it for me i’m just wondering if it’s normal because no one ever talks about it when they describe what being high feels like

It’s always in my legs for me and starts in waves and feels like i’m on a roller coaster or an elevator drop it could be a panic attack but i love the feeling it’s a whoosh whoosh feeling that’s like a big wave every 5 seconds and it’s so euphoric and tingly and amazing and it feels like i’m going down the drop on a roller coaster or free falling and it’s orgasmic and i have been sober a month now and i’m about to go buy a cart to get this feeling again it’s like a leg orgasm that comes in waves every 5 seconds and it’s lit but i also get the same feeling when i have a panic attack so idk if it’s normal or not

When people 'pack a bowl', how much is that, and what's considered a big bowl vs small?

I feel very silly asking this but it's been bugging me for a while. Like I did a 0.025 gram bowl and im cooked. Which I think in my head 'that's kinda small, isn't it?' Vaped btw. But... Idk. It is cooked to be pretty brown. Is this a big bowl, small, and if either, how can you know?

Green Out?

Heyy, I just have a question/story.

So like, today i shared a j with a friend. It was a pre rolled one which was the second time i bought from my plug. The first time I bought from them it was only hash. It has been pretty long since I last had a J and the last things and times I consumed smth was md and shrooms about 4 and 8 weeks ago.

So today my friend and me are smoking it and I already felt something from the second hit, and since my lungs started to hurt pretty early I just gave the rest to my friend. But like aöready after finishing it, I felt everything. I had problems walking and sometimes my View got weird, in the sense that objects got longer. Most of the high i just felt my whole body very weirdly but also felt as if I got pulled around. It was slightly better when I was laying down with closed eyes, so most of the time like about two and a half hours we just sat in McDonalds while I laidy head on the table and slept. It was overall really really weird and uncomfortable and especially new, since I never had this kinda experience with hash, hell, everytime I smoked in the past I barely even felt it. It kind of felt like MD but really really really uncomfy.

And also I was sweating like crazy the whole time, like dripping sweaty. Also My mouth was absolutely dey but at the same time I couldnt drink because it tasted weird but also also at the same time my saliva at one point got sich a weird consistency I almost threw up. Like generally through the whole experience I was able to vomit.

So yeah, I also got my period today about two hours before smoking and I‘ve had a cold these past few days. Was that possibly a green out and could the reason be one of those? Idk if it was the hash since my friend smoked way more but was feeling normal. I‘m kind of scared of smoking again rn lol.

Has anyone else had a bad experience with Delta 8 products?

I moved from WA to TX and to say the (legal) stuff in TX is far worse is unnecessary and an understatement, but I want to know if anyone has had the same reactions as I've had with the hemp based cannabinoids. There are two main things I experienced:

They make my heart race, and combined with the feeling of paranoia and (at least in my experience) physical feeling being enhanced it causes my heart to hurt and makes me think I'm having a heart attack..

After prolonged use of these types of edibles, being hungover from drinking causes what I can only describe as food poisoning but worse. I've had bad hangovers, but I stopped using these edibles when I became violently ill after heaving drinking one night. Since no longer taking the legal TX edibles I've had normally shitty hangovers.

Also wondering if anyone has any information on how these are made? Are they synthetic, or combined with other chemicals? The only brand I can really think of that I had would be the Mike Bites. I think I had those the most. Nowadays I bake my own brownies.

Any information on the make-up of these delta-8 edibles and how they affect people would be great, but I also understand the market is very unregulated at the moment. That also gives me pause on ever trying them again.

Does weed usage harm recovery from stitches?

I had a gnarly dog bite yesterday, where the whole canine tooth sunk into the palm of my right hand. I only had two stitches for it because, for dog bites, they don't stitch it up fully so that the bacteria from the dog can escape. They didn't say anything about alcohol/weed usage, so I figured it'd be best to ask here. Is it safe to rip my cart while this thing is healing, or would the thc affect my blood flow/recovery?

What is my tolerance now?

I’ve recently been trying edibles with my boyfriend and it’s been fairly fun so far. The first brand we tried was kush kubes 15mg d9 and 15mg cbd gummies, which have consistently worked well for us. At some point closer to the end of our last bag, I had to take 2 gummies (30mg:30mg) in order to get up there like before. When we went to get more edibles we tried a different brand which was supposedly “stronger.” It was Modus tap out blend with delta 11, THC-A, and delta 8 & liquid Diamonds. We each took one and It got us high but, made my boyfriend panic and wasn’t a euphoric giggly high like from our other brands. We finished that bag in a couple weeks and just moved on. It’s been about a week since I’ve taken anything and I think I’m just gonna go back to kush kube since it was the best one for us so far. Now for my question, I know my tolerance for kush kubes was raising, hence the reason I took two the last time. I was wondering if my tolerance for d9 and cbd has reset any since the other pack we got didn’t have those elements. Like even tho we were still talking gummies, they were different types with fairly different feelings. If I get kush kubes, will I have to still take two or can I go back to taking just one?

I smoke every night and it’s super hard to wake up

So I take 2-4 rips of my pen every night and get decently high, but nothing crazy (been smoking for a year, daily since last August), but when morning comes around I’m insanely fatigued and can’t keep myself awake until like midday. It makes school really hard, and I think it might be building on exhaustion from already being depressed, but is there any way that you guys help with this weed hangover, or do you just deal with it?

Carts vs flower & cannaboids?? Whole lotta questions

Hi! I have a lot of questions and a decent number of them I get vague nothing answers, thanks!! I'm wondering how different cannaboids (d8, d9, thca, hhc etc) compare to eachother- like I generally know that d9 is stronger than 8, but where does hhc and thca fall?? and how is flower d8 or whatever like I sometimes see? Like I know the shit in carts are usually derived from hemp in order to be legal (I think?), so how can a place in NC sell like delta 8 flower???????? And finally how have y'all's experiences w pens vs carts vs flower been?? 😁😁 Sorry if that's a lot I'm just curious

First Time at a Dispensary

Hey y'all!

So I recently received my provisional med card (IL). There's a medical dispensary near my place, but I've never been in one before. I get pretty bad social anxiety sometimes and don't wanna tweak out when I go in. I'm under 21, I'm pretty sure it won't be an issue but just wanted to know if there's anything I should know beforehand. Any advice is appreciated :)

Was this greening out?

I stopped smoking over a year ago because of a pretty bad experience with weed and now I'm considering starting again. I smoked daily for four or five years before that but I'd never really "greened out" in the traditional sense, like I'd never thrown up or felt nauseous or dizzy or anything. I'd say I was a fairly responsible smoker – I kept myself hydrated, always had something to eat or a snack beforehand, tried not to go overboard when packing my bowl, etc. So, I was always able to recognise when I was too high or if I had smoked too much and able to just sit and let it pass.

But there were a few times where I thought I might be greening out. I'd start to feel this pressure in my head, like something was squeezing my brain. It's hard to explain but it didn't feel like a panic attack or anything, just felt extremely disorientating and depersonalizing. Like nothing felt real around me. Everything seemed to slow down. It didn't cause any nausea but it just didn't feel good, like just a severe sense of discomfort everywhere in my body. If I sat still for too long the pressure would intensify and it felt as though everything was closing in on me so I'd just move a little and I would snap out of it. But it would only take a few seconds for the feeling to come back. I've tried talking to my brother about it (heavy smoker) but he said he's never experienced anything like it, he just normally throws up and is good to go again. None of my friends really seemed to understand it either.

It didn't happen often and the amount I smoked differed every time but it was genuinely so intense that each time is so memorable. Does anyone else green out like this or is it even greening out?

How often is “too much”

I really love the effects of marijuana it’s extremely euphoric for me, my favorite hobby (listening to music) gets amplified like 7x i get the BEST sleep of my entire life it’s honestly just amazing, i’m 15 years old though obviously probably too young to smoke or eat edibles i been sober for a month now but want to try edibles, i only ever used carts i dont want brain damage or anything or to be addicted is twice a week safe to dabble with edibles?

i got high for the first time

So my best friend whos been smoking weed for a little while brought a cart when we hungout. It took me a few tries to get a good hit (I knew because i was coughing a lot and almost threw up) The most i felt was clumsiness, Not hearing words too right, and like zoning out a lot thinking about nothing. We were watching youtube and i couldnt focus on the video without staring into the tv almost unconsciously. Wasnt mesmerized by anything didnt seem way more funny didnt have crazy munchies. I looked in the bathroom mirror a couple times and my eyes were very red. I feel like i shouldve felt more, since my friend was very high. I just went to sleep after like half an hour because it was underwhelming. It may have been that i didnt inhale properly but i cant see how i didnt because of how my body reacted to it. I might do it again soon because my other friend said she can get me brownies, so maybe that will have a better effect.

Should I try edibles again(2nd timer)

After a bad first experience off 5 mg, I swore it off for a while. Maybe because I wasn’t prepared I was tripping out a bit and clenched up waiting for it to end. I feel I’m in a bit better place right now and at least know it won’t last forever 😂 is it worth trying again. I feel with smoking a lot of the stress is trying to make sure I inhale and also trying to cover up.. tho I think it’s more of a fun social thing

What happened? I completely freaked out.

So I'm relatively new to weed. I've smoked every day for the past 6 months. Nothing too crazy, just three puffs from my vape a night. Yesterday I smoked some sativa from a joint I got at a medical dispensary. I took 3 quick puffs and completely freaked out. Heart racing, palms sweaty, I got dizzy, I couldn't walk, I started shaking uncomfortably, I was in full panic mode.

I understand that greening out and panic attacks are a thing, but I'm not sure as to why I freaked out this time when I haven't freaked out in the past. Full disclosure I usually smoke 1:1 cbd thc blends, but this isn't the first time I've smoked a full thc. I was very stressed before smoking and sort of freaked out because I hit the joint so fast so maybe that's why? Just wondering if anyone has had something similar. Freaking out on a strain that you haven't freaked out from in the past.

This sub was a god send. I ate pepper corn, sat with my feet elevated and tried to relax as much as possible. Helped me immensely.

Weed changed after LSD

The best way I can describe it is that everything feels like a liminal space. It's not a bad feeling, neutral I would say. Also I don't get dissociation anymore from smoking.

I don't know if it feels better or not, just be aware if you are going to try LSD.
