Cannabis after-effects

Hi,
Yesterday I tried some weed for the first time, apparently really strong stuff, very stupid I know and I'm kinda ashamed of myself at the moment :redface:

The thing is I really tripped out, my vision went funny (kinda snowy), my head felt hot and tight and my hearing went weird too. It was the most scary thing I've ever experienced, it felt like I was going to die. My friend took me outside, said he knew what was happening and eventually everything went back to normal. The problem is the headache is still there, it feels tight and hot and now I'm starting to worry again because it's been almost 24 hours. My vision is fine, it's just the headache that is bothering me. My friend says it's normal and that it will go away soon but I'm still worried about it, does anyone know anything about this sort of thing or can advise me as to what to do? Has this sort of thing happened to anyone else, and if so, is it normal to still feel this way?
One thing is for sure though, never, ever again will I touch that stuff :frown:

Drink alot of water.
I don't know why you have a reaction quite in that way unless you smoked loads and you were not used to it.
I think you should flush it out of your system and maybe your body just rejected it.
Would not worry about it just don't do it again if it effects you badly like that

Thanks, it was the first time I'd ever tried it (my friend has done it loads of times) and we smoked a king sized joint so maybe I had too much for my first try :redface:

Also my friend has smoked loads of weed and said that it's the strongest he's ever had so maybe that was a factor too.

I think it effects different people in different ways, so don't expect to have the same reactions as other people. The main thing is you have realised it isn't big and it isnt clever!!

The majority of people don't do it because its 'big' or 'clever' you arse.

Similar thing happened to me first time round. At the tender age of 12 me and a mate decided to smoke AT MY HOUSE, while my folks were asleep!

We, in our ignorance smoked waaaaay too much. Needless to say I had a terrible experience. I woke up the next morning to find my mate passed out in my bath tub, with all my dirty laundry covering him!?

Anyway, weed very often doesn't have ANY EFFECT the first time smoked. So, we smoke more and more until we get utterly, frighteningly wasted.

You're thinking will be "cloudy" for a few days. You may be moody and irritable.

Just, as already advised, drink lots of water and eat some fruit and veg to load up on the good stuff.

My first experience with weed was so bad, I was taking ecstacy, LSD and mushrooms before I touched another joint. I was too damn scared.

If you do decide to smoke again, remember, MODERATION is a word you'll need to become aquainted with.

I'm a regular smoker, and I find when I go through patches where I smoke a lot, my memory is awful, my thinking unclear and I'm overly lethargic. Note, these are after effects, not how I get while stoned.

So the headache I have now (tight, tingly, etc) is normal and will pass soon? :smile:

Definitely. Try taking your mind off it and relaxing/sleeping a while.

Oh, there is a reported connection between weed and schizophrenia. some people go from being perfectly normal to medically schitzophrenic after smoking just once. Apparently the THC triggers dorment chemicals that cause schritzophrenia.

So unless you have suddenly been endowed with a couple extra personalities I'm sure you'll be fine.

No extra personalities that I can see so I'm sure everything will settle down soon, thanks :smile:

One more thing: take a vitamin B complex tablet if you can.
