Is this a normal effect of smoking weed?

Yesterday I smoked weed for the very first time with a friend. My friend and I smoked 2 joints shared between us.

BUT HERE'S THE PART I'M TALKING ABOUT... A minute after we finished, I stood up and I felt really dizzy, disoriented, and like I was going in and out of reality. One second I was in a deep dream and the next I was normal. I got really scared. I expected to feel euphoric, but this was not like that, it was like the opposite. I couldn't even force myself to smile, it was so weird. It was like I was dizzy with out even moving. I was scared. I thought I had somehow OD'd (which I know is completely ridiculous). Sounds would get louder and softer in cycles. My face felt REALLY warm and my skin was tingling. I felt extremely nauseous, like I was about to throw up all over the place and pass out. I would walk towards something and almost walk RIGHT into it. I was really confused about where I was and what was going on.

It felt like I was swaying back and forth with each breath I took. And it felt like I was being pulled to the sides of the walls.

But after about 20 minutes... I was feeling really high...talkative, laughing, Yelling out obnoxious things that made no sense, and I got MAJOR munchies. (All the stuff to be expected)

Was it some bad weed? Or just some really strong weed? Did I smoke too much? Was that reaction normal?

 

Yeah sounds like you took things a bit quickly seeing as it was your first time, was it just weed in the joints or was it mixed with baccy? Because the light headedness coulda been a carbon monoxide headrush. The rest of it sounds like you just had a bit much/it was quite strong. Did your friend have any similar effects?

 

effects can be different to various people, for example once i started to yell, once i couldn't stop laughing and once i even cried... it depends on the weed and on the person...
anyway your skin and face effects are the same as mine, i really get warm and my hands shake and sweat...

 

What kinda shit do you people smoke. maybe its just me but i've never got that fucked up of weed. ill get happy, maybe a little bit slow but never break out and in sweats, shake or get dizzy or any of that shit. it sounds like angel dust to me. I ve never heard of any on reacting like that to just some good dank

 

i think few first time experiences of weed are without some "aclimatising effects. your body is receiving for the first time the awakening knock on the proverbial door. anyone remember their first toke on a cigarette? spinning rooms ect..
also the effects of skunk, if it was that, are would compound any physical intolerances. last and least is the issue of alcohol. not a wise mix with weed.
take it easy and avoid becoming a daily toker and enjoy the big high of a sacred week end hit.

 

It was just weed--no tobacco. My friend didn't smoke as much as I did, and she didn't seem as high. We shared two joints, but I had most of both of them.

 

I'm pretty sure it was weed... It was greenish grey/brown. But pretty damn green. Really? You didn't get dizzy or any of those effects? Shit... Was it laced? (Btw, we rolled our own joints)

 

I didn't have any alcohol with it...

 

So you smoked the most of two joints your first time getting high?
Haha, it sounds like you just greened out on your first time. At some point later in your smoking career you might look back on that moment with nostalgia and envy, I supposin.

 

What does that mean? I smoked a lot? Too much? How much should I have smoked? (Sorry, I just want to know so that next time I have a better experience)

 

I agree with what that one guy said about greening out. It's happened to me a couple times, I've been smoking pot for like 3 years, and that has happened to me. Although I never had the bad experiences your talking about, I have turned white as a ghost as a result of smoking too much in a short span, it happens, dont worry your not gonna die or anything your just REALLY high! Oh and sometimes you can have a bad trip, but very rarely with pot, I mean, come on, its pot. IF you do manage to get your hands on some strong shit you will know when to stop !!! probably after 1 bowl you will be flying!

 

greening is whats considered smoking too much. Next time smoke a little bit less and see where it takes you. You can always smoke more after but once youve smoked too much you cant un smoke it.

 

Haha I didn't even know it was possible to "green out", as you say. I probably should have been warned about that, but it's my own fault. I mean, none of you could have known I would have been affected THAT strongly by it. NOW it makes sense... I didn't even smoke that much (overall 1 and a quarter joints), but I DID hold them in each hit for about 10 seconds each. It was my first time so I had no tolerance. I just wanted to make sure I got high. I agree, I think I overdid it... You said it's very rare to have a bad trip with pot... That makes me sad, because I had a bad trip and it's supposed to be rare... That sucks =( (for me)

Hopefully next time will be better...

 

You might have smoked too much. It sounds like your blood pressure was a little low if you felt faint. It happens sometimes, probably because you smoked like 2 joints! Don't worry though, if you smoke too much weed the only thing that will happen is you fall asleep.
Next time you should know what it's like to feel high, so don't take any more hits than you want. The more you smoke, the higher you get.
I smoked 2 joints my first time too. It might have been too much for a first time, but I loved almost every minute of it.

 

First times are always weird.
Oh, and 1 and a quarter joints is quite a lot, especially for a newbie! Of course you were going to be that affected! It was your first time!
Next time, if you don't feel well, get a glass of water and lie down. Or eat something. Don't focus on feeling bad.

 

Forget what I said about warning me about smoking too much... I forgot that was on a completely different thread. Sorry!

 

I thought smoking 2 joints wasn't a lot from the song by Sublime that goes... "Smoke 2 joints in the morning, smoke 2 joints at night, smoke two joints in the afternoon, it makes me feel alright". DAMN am I naive. Guy must have built a hellova tolerance

 

I didn't know it was a lot
But sweet Jesus once I stood up it hit me like a BRICK. (not an exaggeration)

Thanks for the advice. I didn't want to eat anything, because I felt really nauseous. Positive thoughts help though

 

I could have sworn I already replied to this, but I don't see anything on the thread, so I'll just write it again.

I can't believe I smoked too much. It's actually kind of funny that I was so eager to get high that I smoked too much and ended up as the walking dead (at least that's what it felt like). HAHHAAHAHA wow I just laughed for like 5 minutes for no apparent reason. wait am I still high?? HHAHAAHHAHA. but... that's not possible is it. HAHAHAHA wow this is retarded.

Anyway... if smoking about 1 1/4 joints filled with 100% weed in a span of about 2 minutes did this to me, what should I do next time? Smoke 1/2 a joint in 10 minutes??? Any suggestions? BTW, I would have stopped when I felt that I was high, but the problem was that I smoked so fast that I couldn't feel it until it was too late.

 

^ I could have sworn you did too because I read it. I feel like the forums have been doing that alot recently its like a cruel memory trick to play on us stoners.
