Come on Bro. There was great weed in the 80’s. Don’t ask me how I know.
Eating to much thc will render you incapacitated for hours. Not fun.
Cal Aggies have ruined more vegetables than Purdue researchers have ever seen.
any edible is definitely a different high that I didnt care for as well. I still burn on occasion. never a whole J... just one or two hits and i’m good!! I see my kids and many others smoke huge joints and I think to myself every time... What a waste!!
Some of the younger guys I am in a sports-league with talk about "edibles."
Seems like a very depressing and lonely way to consume marijuana
Isn't the "fun" of marijuana come from listening to the Allman Brothers, having some beers, and sharing a communal joint, particularly if one's cohorts from the girls dorm of your college are in attendance?
I had a…friend…who ate jerky that had been enhanced. He had no idea that each piece contained about 100 milligrams of THC and he ate 2 pieces. So did his wife.
Within a couple of hours neither could walk. Both were projectile vomiting- he into the kitchen sink, she into the downstairs toilet. He crawled to the sofa but it felt like it was moving and he felt he would fall off. He belly crawled up the stairs and made it to the king sized bed which was big enough that he felt he could stay on it.
They could not call for help as they found themselves unable to operate their phones.
She crawled to the dog’s bed and spent the night there.
This was Memorial Day Weekend which was a good thing…the next three days were a haze of nausea and weakness. They had a hard time keeping food down for a week and lost over 10 pounds each. So much for munchies.
“..And why did you come to Urgent Care tonight, Sir?”
I dunno, I guess I can’t stop eating.
“...You ‘guess’ that you can’t stop eating?”
do you mean; even when you’re not hungry?
Well, I’m hungry all the time.
I went back to it when it became legal and vape pens were around. So much cleaner, no rolling joints, stinky smoke. Just nice taste and cheap.
Sounds like the weed they took was spiked with something else to cause all those symptoms. Usually an overdose of weed manifests as a panic attack or strong feelings of paranoia.
The personal anecdotes are better than the article!
...the best part of FR!
The amount of THC in the edibles is completely unregulated making them dangerous and needs regulation. The pro-marijuana potheads will scream bloody murder of course, claiming that marijuana is completely safe.
‘This ain’t Woodstock weed!’ The number of seniors ending up in hospital from using cannabis has jumped 1,800% in California since 2005, many startled by the drug’s potency nowadays
People aged 65 and over increasingly turn to pot to fight pain from arthritis and other woes, but the super-potent strains found today can cause everything from dizziness to falls and heart palpitations.
The pot today is just NOT the same. A lot is laced with hard drugs a lot is just strains of incredibly strong thc. I’d have a cup of tea or nice bath instead. Or a bottle of red wine if I needed to really escape for the night.

Maybe not 100% safe, but unlike alcohol nobody dies from an overdose from it.
According to WebMD, these are the symptoms of marijuana overdose:
High levels of anxiety
Panic attack
Rapid heart rate
Difficulty conversing
Poor coordination
High or low blood pressure
Nausea and vomiting
Extreme confusion and memory problems
Paranoia
Hallucinations
Yes…absolutely…thinking you are going to die…inability to hold a cell phone and dial it…inability to remember that your son is in your contacts…inability to remember how to spell your son’s name…throwing up on your cell phone…swearing there was something moving in the vomit as you are cleaning it up…
Yeah but a panic attack can easily result in those very symptoms. I’m talking about the vomiting and not being able to eat for 3 days that you mentioned, never heard of something like that with weed.
CBD doesn’t contain any THC, therefore no high.
