Me too! Posted: 04-16-08 19:08pm
Hi!
Just wanted to share that I've had similar
experiences many times on pot. (Call me
crazy for continuing to try!) I DO NOT
have a mental disorder and am a very happy
sober person. I do not smoke pot
frequently but about 50% of the time when
I have, I have had a VERY bad trip. They
range from paranoia about people knowing
I'm high to feeling terrified to the point
of feeling suicidal (not something I
consider in sober life). One time, I
actually became so suicidal that I
actually thought I was so high that I
wouldn't be able to stop myself from
killing myself. I have definitely
hallucinated on pot and when I start on a
bad trip, I have to lie in a dark room
with no stimulation of any kind in order
to somewhat control my feelings and I just
have to wait it out. Anyway, just wanted
to say you're not the only one and pot IS
strong enough to cause these types of
trips. I am just happy for those of you
who have never experienced such a thing.

my bad highs Posted: 04-21-08 21:26pm
i have been smoking on and off for about a
year. i don't smoke too often, usually on
boring weekends or at parties. my highs
usually start out very intense and
everything is enhanced; nature is
phenomenal and music is always better then
ever. however after this good part is over
i start feeling very negative about myself
and other people. even when i am with my
good friends i have constant feelings that
i am annoying them and that they are all
people with bad intentions. this feeling
will linger with me for the next few days
and ill be sad for awhile. sometimes i
wonder if weed is what is making me more
depressed when i'm completely sober. could
this be true? and i have also had trips
where people are all very robotic and it
is almost like everyone else is on pause
and i am moving through them. can anyone
please give me any advice? i have tried to
positively reinforce myself during these
highs and i try to remind myself that
everything is fine but it never works out.
my body is always very very tense inside,
like my muscles feel shriveled up or
something.
again if anyone knows ANYTHING to help me
out pleaseee let me know, i would like to
know what's going on.

I have been smoking pot for some time and
i've done it plenty of times to know that
it is not for me. I never had a trip that
severe but mentally i had the same
effects. I smoked pot from different
sources so i know that they were not
laced. And in all my experiences i've had
more bad trips then good. I get into this
state of mind where i dont socialize with
anyone and crazy thoughts rush into my
head. I never feel good or relaxed and i
get a feeling that im going crazy and
trapped inside my own mind. Afterwards i
feel horrible and usually take a good day
to feel somewhat normal again.
Personally i think this is all caused from
my own ego. I dont like being controlled
and being high i have no control of my own
body. Also i get a feeling that im doing
wrong and that i should just stay sober
instead of blowing my money on weed.

First of all I would like to thank all of
you who contributed to this topic for
basically saving my life. The reason why
will be explained within the story.
So this happened last friday night. My
friend and I were doing some little
tournament thing with pokemon (I know lame
right?). When her brother comes in and
asks us if we want to get high, of all the
people me and 3 others go with him. So
we're smoking and its my turn and I have a
bad turn so to speak so I take 2 extremely
large inhalations. Then we go through
maybe 2 or so more bowls and it happens
once more where I do that. The whole time
we were loud and I thought we'd get caught
for sure. I get inside and all of my
friends are kinda against smoking pot. So
I sit down and I'm fine, until I realise
like 3-4 of them are looking at me. I
simply said "Don't judge me so harshly,
it's not like you don't do things other
people don't approve of." Then I had a
feeling like everyone was angry with me.
Thats when it all started. It seemed like
they had been staring at me for like 30-45
min. And I said "Why are you guys staring
so much?" They reply "What are you talking
about?" I looked at the clock it had only
been 3 minutes. I started to freak out
about this and while freaking out I
noticed that i only saw like 1/3 of my
motions. It was like as if I were Mr. Game
n' Watch. So I told the other ones who got
high with me and they all said it was just
that I had too much. But I thought
something was seriously wrong with me, my
heart was beating so faster and my chest
heart terribly I thought my heart would
explode inside of me. Every time one of
these heartbeats occurred I would see a
new "painting" as I would put it. Mainly
because if I looked another way I would
not see anything from the last one and I
couldnt gradually change, and it had the
texture of paint to it. I decided to lay
down. But got the suggestion to eat, as I
was eating I listened to people talk (I
was doing everything in a panicked nature)
I forgot I was eating but kept chewing. I
only noticed because I drank some water
and spit it up cause I thought the chewed
up piece of cookie was a giant ass bug.
Then I wanted to look this up so I started
typing but a few letters in I had
forgotten that I was typing and wondering
what was going on at the computer, finally
a friend brought me to the coach when I
freaked out over this. I layed there and I
saw everything as a video game, such as
pokemon, where I could not control a thing
I was doing. At this point I felt like I
was in some sort of parallel universe. If
I tried hard enough I would move and for
that instant I would feel part of the old
strange world that I had left behind but
could not quite remember. So I got up and
basically started dancing but soon these
movements became one and then I had no
control over it or even a recollection of
how and why I was doing it, I only knew it
was very important. I finally couldnt
stand anymore and layed down again. I
began to convulse every once in a while
and I felt like my body was collapsing in
on itself, come to realize that I was
lying on my side and that I was just
folding in half kinda. I then started
thinking of a world where I was from,
creating it in my mind because I couldn't
remember my true one. Instead I was stuck
in this rpg style videogame that moved
slowly. When I had the will power to leave
this videogame I felt as if I were
floating there in the darkness, like it
was water, and that the blinking light I
could see from the clock was like the
little recording symbol on a camera.
Finally I got to the worst part. I got
halfway back to reality and had it within
sight but could not reach it. I had a
slight grasp of it and felt like I was
dying. I could feel my blood flowing
through my veins, I could hear me heart
beat echo inside of my head and with every
pulse of my heart I felt as if symbols
were slammed together inside of my body
and the sound waves increase in power and
were hammering on the insides of my body,
and this was truly painful. Like it
actually hurt me. I started contemplating
suicide. I thought about everything and
how it must not be real for this to
happen. I started to cry by myself in the
darkness and saying things like "I don't
like this, please stop or I'll end it
myself." And I got loud one of my friends
heard this and got genuinely worried and
went online to look up this strange
phenomenon. She found this forum and all
of your stories, she came back in the room
and told some of them and how this can
happen to anyone and that I'll be fine and
some how she got through to me and all of
the sudden the pain stopped, and I could
enjoy my high if I wasn't so tired from
shaking non-stop and crying and freaking
out.
From my experience and your stories, I
think part of this is caused by emotion
because when we were smoking I was shaking
like crazy cause I didn't want to get
caught cause this kids parents are like
second parents of mine. And then I felt
the stress of my friends judgment along
with this extreme high I have never
experienced because I never wanted to get
too high. And it all bundled up into a
panic attack where I did not enjoy the
situation but instead dreaded it and then
feared it. And from the fear I tried to
run from it inside my mind. Because of the
judgment I think I just became too aware
of how high I was, and I didn't know that
no one had ever over-dose on marijuana
before so I thought that might be
happening too.
But yeah thank you all for saving me from
killing myself. I was truly on my way to
doing it, I just needed to try hard enough
to get up to do it. I feel like if I do
smoke again I will be fine because of the
knowledge I acquired. I think I wont feel
like I'm losing myself because I know what
is going on. I will smoke again, and maybe
come back and shared my success or failure
of a story with you all.
