Title: Tried an edible pot brownie last night
Post by: Coach is Back! on December 12, 2018, 09:19:48 AM
SI went out last week, right hip was about a 1-1/2" throwing off my gait and killing me when I squat. Went to my Chiro on Monday and he adjusted my hips back to where I'm only about a 1/2 off, one more adjustment to go. After the first adjustment, of course, there would be some inflammation and still some shooting until the inflammation reduced and the nerves have settled down. Hence the brownie.

I hate not having my head clear but I was home, doing my SI stretches, in pain, etc. Cousin comes in and says "here, try this". Long story short, It tastes great but absolutely HATED the effects, felt dizzy, nauseated, equilibrium was all fucked up and barely made it through my shower. I finally laid down around 7 pm last night and didn't wake up until 30 min ago. Worst experience I've had since I quit doing drugs almost 27 years ago.

Makes you slow, lethargic and have no idea how you pot people can function. I would have rather stayed in pain. NEVER AGAIN!

I had a ton of computer work I had to do last night and it was wasted.

Same awful effects & Feelings

In gym and they had a party going - they had these nice tasting cakes
Laced (unbeknown to me ) with it..... jeez it messed me up.
Never ever again- not for me.

To be sure the pain went away but came right back when it wore off and this is where the addiction (including Narcotics) starts.

Coach,

Maybe it's a lack of tolerance due to our age?

About 5 years ago, while having to attend a wedding on the west coast (Cannon Beach, Oregon), I made an overnight stop at the home of a family friend who lives in Salem. This guy was/is a free spirit and loves to smoke marijuana and consume edibles. Anyhow, while staying there overnight, I woke up late during the evening wanting something to eat. I made my way to the kitchen and saw that the guy had a bowl of chocolate brownies wrapped in saran wrap and in his refrigerator, he had vanilla ice cream. So, I thought, "why not serve myself a delicious bowl of crushed brownies with vanilla ice cream as a topping?". I did so and consumed a bowl of crushed up brownies with vanilla ice cream. About an hour later, I was paralyzed. I couldn't move from the couch. I thought I was having a heart attack. I experienced palpitations, felt as if I could barely breathe and couldn't not stand up, as my body felt as stiff as a board. I thought I was done for. I yelled out to my friend and told him to call the cops, as I was about to die. He called the paramedics and before they arrived, I told him that I had never experienced anything like this, hence why I felt this was the end of me. He then realized that the bulk of his brownies were gone and asked what I did with them. I told him that I ate them with ice cream. He said, "Just half of one of those brownies have about 120mg of THC and you ate about 7 of them!!".

Quickly, he had me drink about half a gallon of milk and then proceeded to get me to throw up (I used my fingers folks, not his cock). After throwing up, I felt way better, but realized then and there that I do not have the proper physiological constitution to even pretend to ever consume marijuana edibles.

Edibles are the worst way to go
I prefer using a dry herb vaporizer and then I filter it through water.
Buy some good flower (and also learn whether you prefer the effect of indica or sativa) and have one or two hits and STOP

Never tried edibles but i'm told it's not the same as smoking. More intense high. You have to use small amounts.

Not surprising a non-smoker would have a bad experience by ingesting it. You skipped the foreplay and when straight for the butthole.

What’s the difference? I haven’t smoked in years because it made me paranoid. Ate some edibles at a music festival in California a couple of years ago and liked it. Ate some about a year ago at home and hated it. Same type of paranoia. Maybe it’s setting you’re in?

The trouble I have with medical marijuana is that it's the drug indication for a ridiculous amount of infirmaries. Everything from anxiety, pain, glaucoma, insomnia, depression, Parkinson, dandruff and host of other maladies. Could it be people just like to get high? 

I will stick with the occasional glass of whiskey. Judging by the slurred speech patterns of long time pot heads it's my empirical guess that it causes neurological damage. It certainly discourages ambition with habitual use.

That's the thing, I didn't think I had that much. Maybe about 3/4-1" x 1" square. Went back to my computer work and it slowly started to hit me and then intensify.

Many of those benefit are due to CBD or the combo of THC and CBD

Alcohol is the much more damaging drug (fact)

Also, if someone is smoking pot all day, every day that's completely different than a few tokes in the evening or a few tokes once a week.  Same obviously goes for alcohol

I assume you've seen plenty of slurred speech from people  who were drunk or even just had a few drinks

You probably had like the equivalent of five or more drinks, as a person with zero tolerance.

Try <5mg.

THC has amazing effects at the right dose. I won't go over 5mg for the most part, though. For me this is like 1-2 cups of coffee equivalent.
Title: Re: Tried an edible pot brownie last night

It seems like most of the naysayers had a shitload of thc once or twice... OMRs story is ridiculous -- almost 1000mg! That's insane.

If everyone were limited to 5-10mg for their first experience:

A) most people would probably say it "did nothing"
B) you might not be scared to try it again
C) after a few tries, you might see the benefits

THC can make you more open, observant, empathetic, and enhance your senses. It's a shame how many people try a massive dose once and say "never again"--meanwhile using caffeine, alcohol, or nicotine (all much more harmful drugs imo) regularly.

How am I supposed to determine that if it's in a relatively small container? For the record, I just can't to that again.

Faulty logic. By that reasoning then heroin should be legal because more people die from DWI and alcohol related diseases like liver/ heart complications. One thing for sure highways don't need high drivers that are high going down road. In Colorado in stats taken from the toxicology taken from fatal accident autopsies the amount of drivers sky rocketed with those with marijuana in their system.  Another stat showed that law enforcement ignored DWI  by lower pot DWI arrests under marijuana because it was legal and no legal national limit is set for marijuana and driving. It's a against the law but observation must be established as proof.  Tests can only tell if you used and not the time or date you used it.

I assume you're aware that opioids are used as medicine and there is, like all medicine, a difference between use and abuse

I don't think it's a good idea to operate a vehicle on anything that negatively alters your mental abilities, reaction time etc

it's fine with me if you choose to ignore the facts

let me know the stats on people who die from alcohol abuse compared to cannabis?

Your very probably right.
As a non user & having consumed god knows how much
It wasn’t an experience I’d want to repeat.

Saying that I’d like to try the medicinal cbd/ thc for aches & injuries
Any input as to what is best combination & where I can purchase
Would be much appreciated.

SI went out last week, right hip was about a 1-1/2" throwing off my gait and killing me when I squat. Went to my Chiro on Monday and he adjusted my hips back to where I'm only about a 1/2 off, one more adjustment to go. After the first adjustment, of course, there would be some inflammation and still some shooting until the inflammation reduced and the nerves have settled down. Hence the brownie.

I hate not having my head clear but I was home, doing my SI stretches, in pain, etc. Cousin comes in and says "here, try this". Long story short, It tastes great but absolutely HATED the effects, felt dizzy, nauseated, equilibrium was all fucked up and barely made it through my shower. I finally laid down around 7 pm last night and didn't wake up until 30 min ago. Worst experience I've had since I quit doing drugs almost 27 years ago.

Makes you slow, lethargic and have no idea how you pot people can function. I would have rather stayed in pain. NEVER AGAIN!

I had a ton of computer work I had to do last night and it was wasted.
I have a few friends who are potheads and I just never understood the appeal either.  After smoking (or eating) the shit my whole day is ruined with just laying around and accomplishing absolutely nothing.  Some people function fine on it and some people can't function without it.

Hey Illuminati, if you have to ask where to purchase, I'm assuming it's not legal in your state. Sorry, but I can't help in that case.

If you want to try CBD and THC at the same time, I would try a tincture, if you can find one. It's a liquid that you dispense into a drink with an eye dropper, giving you fine control over the amount. As far as the ratio, probably just try one that's higher in CBD and one higher in THC and see which you like more.

I’m in the U.K. and it’s a messed up situation over here at the moment
With regards CBD/THC therapeutic treatments.

I know a few shall we say dodgy characters I’ll have to tap into.

I have an ongoing problem with my left knee / lower leg
Lots of pain & swelling up when walking or standing any length of time.

Thanks for taking the time.

For whatever reason, 10mg is something of a standard for many edibles. Try half of a 10mg edible and see if you have the same experience.

It seems like you may have noticed a disturbing effect and are trying to convince yourself to dismiss it. I wouldn't be surprised, anyway. If you used a reasonable dose a fair number of times, you would probably have to recant some of your beliefs.

Used properly, the drug will force you to confront yourself. It's not always comfortable, unlike rampantly abused stimulant drugs (caffeine) that reinforce your selfish tendencies.

Yeah no problem. I never used it much for inflammation/painkilling. Higher CBD might be better from that, but others here have more experience to speak from.

Ways you fucked up
1.) different strains for different things, some are better for pain than others
2.) If you didn't want to feel lazy should have done a sativa not indica. Not even going to talk about hybrids
3.) Eating something you didn't make. You NEVER do that, you don't know what they put in there.
4.) For pain high CBD, with only a small amount of THC, the stuff that gets you high, is better. You aren't trying to get high, just pain relief.
5.) not having any CBD to bring you down with you.
6.) eating the whole brownie, eatables take 30 mins or so to kick in. You overdosed, and got baked.

You should have taken an Aleve instead. Like Aspirin, it's also an anti inflammatory. Unlike pot, these over-the-counter pain relievers don't come with psychoactive properties.

-Tried pot on three occasions when I was in my twenties. Nothing happened with the first two. The third time made me extremely paranoid. That was enough for me to never want to use it again.

Coach, when you have a chance can  you suggest some SI stretches/mobility movements that work for you?  Having some issues lately and troubleshooting by myself gets a bit  frustrating.  I live in the arsehole of the continent, and the clostest PT is ~ 5hr drive.  Thx in advance.

This ^^.

Indica is the way to go to relieve some pain,and mellow out. Sativa is the energetic, paranoia,anxiety strain. Not for me.
And you probably did way too much. 1/4 of a brownie would have probably been fine (if Indica).

1st time I tried a cookie, guy says "just eat half" so I did, waited a while, nothing, ate the other half was basically a vegetable for the night,but I liked it.
(If I waited another hour, the 1/2 would have been fine, takes a while to hit).

I have a bunch of hard candy edibles, 10 mg THC per. (Like only 1 piece of gummy bear basically). Don't get high off of it, just a deep relaxation, and amazing sleep.
(I only do like 1 per week, on a FRI or SAT night if bored). It's not for everyone,but hardly a gateway drug like people say. IF used correctly, just a medicinal herb (or candy) : )

I think 1mg thc is like 20mg caffeine. I'm guessing coach had like 20-50 mg. So it's like someone abstinent of caffiene drinking 4-10 cups of coffee and telling everyone "never again"!

I don't go over 5mg in a day anymore. I even divide the 5mg tablet up two or three ways, sometimes.

Damn you're dumb as a box of rocks

You've been given a lot of good info on this thread already

First don't eat a brownie that someone gave you

Go to a dispensary and buy an edible that is micro-dosed and you probably should only be taking CBD if you're doing if for pain and inflammation

Also, why are you trying to squat when you have a hip injury (one that is giving you enough pain to seek relief through medication)

Did someone give you a brownie, or did you get a brownie or edible from a dispensary?  Big difference.  Also, when taken orally, THC interacts with an enzyme in the liver creating a much stronger form of THC than when smoked or vaped.  Takes much longer to hit you when taken orally, and whether taken on a full or empty stomach makes a big difference.  Also, there are many different strains that have many different effects.  The higher the THC, the higher you get.  Cannabis has many benefits, and is much better for you than taking acetaminophen or ibuprofen.

The trouble I have with medical marijuana is that it's the drug indication for a ridiculous amount of infirmaries. Everything from anxiety, pain, glaucoma, insomnia, depression, Parkinson, dandruff and host of other maladies. Could it be people just like to get high? 

I will stick with the occasional glass of whiskey. Judging by the slurred speech patterns of long time pot heads it's my empirical guess that it causes neurological damage. It certainly discourages ambition with habitual use.

SI went out last week, right hip was about a 1-1/2" throwing off my gait and killing me when I squat. Went to my Chiro on Monday and he adjusted my hips back to where I'm only about a 1/2 off, one more adjustment to go. After the first adjustment, of course, there would be some inflammation and still some shooting until the inflammation reduced and the nerves have settled down. Hence the brownie.

I hate not having my head clear but I was home, doing my SI stretches, in pain, etc. Cousin comes in and says "here, try this". Long story short, It tastes great but absolutely HATED the effects, felt dizzy, nauseated, equilibrium was all fucked up and barely made it through my shower. I finally laid down around 7 pm last night and didn't wake up until 30 min ago. Worst experience I've had since I quit doing drugs almost 27 years ago.

Makes you slow, lethargic and have no idea how you pot people can function. I would have rather stayed in pain. NEVER AGAIN!

Coach,

Maybe it's a lack of tolerance due to our age?

About 5 years ago, while having to attend a wedding on the west coast (Cannon Beach, Oregon), I made an overnight stop at the home of a family friend who lives in Salem. This guy was/is a free spirit and loves to smoke marijuana and consume edibles. Anyhow, while staying there overnight, I woke up late during the evening wanting something to eat. I made my way to the kitchen and saw that the guy had a bowl of chocolate brownies wrapped in saran wrap and in his refrigerator, he had vanilla ice cream. So, I thought, "why not serve myself a delicious bowl of crushed brownies with vanilla ice cream as a topping?". I did so and consumed a bowl of crushed up brownies with vanilla ice cream. About an hour later, I was paralyzed. I couldn't move from the couch. I thought I was having a heart attack. I experienced palpitations, felt as if I could barely breathe and couldn't not stand up, as my body felt as stiff as a board. I thought I was done for. I yelled out to my friend and told him to call the cops, as I was about to die. He called the paramedics and before they arrived, I told him that I had never experienced anything like this, hence why I felt this was the end of me. He then realized that the bulk of his brownies were gone and asked what I did with them. I told him that I ate them with ice cream. He said, "Just half of one of those brownies have about 120mg of THC and you ate about 7 of them!!".

Quickly, he had me drink about half a gallon of milk and then proceeded to get me to throw up (I used my fingers folks, not his cock). After throwing up, I felt way better, but realized then and there that I do not have the proper physiological constitution to even pretend to ever consume marijuana edibles.

I smoked a lot of weed when I was young.  It lost it's charm due to a couple panic attacks (or what I approximate them to be) and super elevated social anxiety after smoking.

The anxiety I'll accept as a 'magnification effect' of what's already there but the palpitations were purely from the weed.  What you're describing is familiar to me.  Steve Martin related a similar experience in one of his books.

Pot can agree with some people and not agree with others.  For me it was agreeable and then later it wasn't anymore, probably owing to being downright pickled in THC for about 4 years.  Rabid proponents who insist that weed is some sort of litmus test of psyche health are as goofy as the Reefer Madness opposition.

I doubt even Eddie Bravo could consume 7 x 240mg delectables and be, like, totally good to go, bro.

I agree. Likewise, as a younger man, I had experience smoking weed in my mid-to-late twenties, but then it got old and wasn't doing much for me besides increasing my appetite exponentially.

The brownies gave me an experience like none other. It was probably one of the scariest moments of my life.

Hope your whiskey consumption is very occasional, because alcohol can cause neurological and liver damage. In fact, anything done to excess isn't good for you. People's reaction to marijuana varies from one to another.

Yes, medical marijuana is recommended for a host of different conditions. It has fewer side effects than many other medications. My ophthalmologist suggested trying medical marijuana because I have early stage glaucoma, which he's currently treating with eye drops twice a day.

Many folks are recreational users and self dose. But we are discussing medical use which is well regulated. It seems as if your confusing the two by lumping all use as bad.

There are many folks whose opinions differ from yours. Maybe they never had an experience like you did. If you need it for pain relief, don't just eat a brownie concocted by a non-professional. Dispensaries, both recreational and medical are legal in California. If you decide to give cannabis another try, go to a qualified dispensary. Keep in mind you might be a person who has/had an negatively enhanced reaction.

I believe anabolic steroids should be legal. Because they are in most cases illegal, a lot of folks risk using some bad stuff. I hardly think marijuana is worse than illegal steroid use. Who determines your steroid dosage? My guess is that you do and you are not a doctor. It isn't uncommon for users to think if a little is good more will be better. Some of these folks end up with failed kidneys and heart conditions. Think Derek Anthony.

In addition to bad psychological reactions some people have serious physical side effects. My son-in-law was prescribed medical cannabis by one of his doctors. Everything was fine for awhile until he developed cyclical vomiting from it. Constantly vomiting for three weeks put him in the hospital for dangerous dehydration and malnutrition. He lost 28 lbs.

Pot and pot derived products are all the rage. Except so was tobacco and cocaine when they first came out. And then epidemiological data of mass consumption started being compiled over 50 plus years and then, lo and behold- it is damaging. I expect smoking MJ or taking certain derivatives will lead to the same situation. All the cheerleaders saying how wonderful it is will be long gone.

People say alcohol is far worse for you. Nah- it's equally as bad. One or two drinks a day and grandma still lives to 90. 5 drinks a day and grandma dies of liver disease by 55. It's just that we tried to restrict it and we ended up with the mess called Prohibition.

People die from allergies to peanuts, shellfish, you name it. So it is not surprising that some have an adverse reaction to edibles. Listen to the commercials for drugs these days and for every one good thing they do, there are 10 things they also cause, like death.

Its legalized in Massachusetts, they finally are opening stores (it took them 2+ years since legalization). I live over the order in NH, but I can still go buy it.
If I get caught bringing it home over the border its a 100.00 ticket/fine. (They probably take the stuff too). Wife's parents live in MA, 20 mins from me, and we could just leave it at there place.
(We still have her old room there where we sleep when we go over to party and had a few too many). So I still get to rail her in her old room like I did back in 1983/84.  :o

Anyways, key words are "if caught" bringing it back to NH.
Either way Im going Xmas week (Salem, MA - Witch town) its less than an hour drive from me (NH), so I'll load up. Edibles rule, best natural medicine ever.
And Gov't feels its their right to ban plants. ::)

The pubtard here (Sununu) keeps blocking it, the NH Dems want to make it legal. I hope they do, still some hope for NH libbies???

Coach had an "adverse reaction" to what was in all likelihood a large dose, something like five or more coffees or drinks for a person with no experience of these drugs.

1) The human body has a tolerance for just about every substance we put into it. It can handle low levels of even arsenic, for example. Any substance we ingest has potential for harm but it depends on the concentration as to how badly it affects you. For example, nicotine is tolerable in low levels in tobacco yet a single drop of pure nicotine will kill you. A teaspoon of pure caffeine will cause death, guaranteed. In coffee, it is so dilute it is tolerable. To extract the active ingredients in marijuana automatically concentrates them, with reactions still being determined in the population as a whole. So "bad" is a function of concentration.

2) To assume that something is innocuous at the outset is a dangerous approach. We must always assume that substances we ingest are not safe, unless proven otherwise. For foods, most are just fine or else we would all be dead. But any additive not normally present or available in high dose form is always suspect. That is why  the GRAS list was created by the FDA. It reads:  "any substance that is intentionally added to food is a food additive, that is subject to premarket review and approval by FDA, unless the substance is generally recognized, among qualified experts, as having been adequately shown to be safe under the conditions of its intended use, or unless the use of the substance is otherwise excepted from the definition of a food additive. "

3) I agree. It is dose dependent. But the variation in dose tolerance among humans is so great that limits have to be set to protect the outliers from harm. This obviously has not been done, to my knowledge, for marijuana derived additives .

There are other effects to these drugs besides "death", good and bad. In my experience, THC has many good effects. Of course, "good" or "bad" can be defined in various ways, but I would be surprised to hear a consistent defense of, for example, caffeine as good and thc as bad. And pretty much the whole world is addicted to caffeine...

2) To assume that something is innocuous at the outset is a dangerous approach. We must always assume that substances we ingest are not safe, unless proven otherwise.

If people were always so pessimistic, we would probably be living in caves.

3) I agree. It is dose dependent. But the variation in dose tolerance among humans is so great that limits have to be set to protect the outliers from harm. This obviously has not been done, to my knowledge, for marijuana derived additives .

The "median lethal dose" for THC is probably over 130mg/kg in humans: http://www.health.gov.au/internet/main/publishing.nsf/content/health-pubs-drug-cannab2-ch52.htm

Which is absurdly high... OMR, for example, probably had around 1g total in his brownie binge.

Over blown mumbo jumbo. Back in the day, maybe, where you had to smoke 3 bones just to get a buzz.
You take 1 vape hit of today's stuff, you get pretty lit up, w/ minimal smoke inhalation.

Smoke is not what is causing the damage to cardiovascular system, it is the substance and how the body reacts to it. Cigarette for example  is not bad exclusively because of smoke but because of chemicals esp. nicotine.


It influences the brain and your nervous system in general, it is not something your body needs as lots of morons suggest nowadays. For people in pain it is understandable why they would use it but otherwise it is just plain dumb to take it.

No, blows me away that weed is legal and steroids are not but I get there’s more tax $$ in weed, but most steroids are far better for you (in low dose and moderation) and gratifying than weed.
What's your opinion on alcohol then? Its much more harmless and dangerous than pot

Yeah, that's kind of how I view pot.  You're in your 20s, you fuck around with things, and eventually outgrow them.  I confess, I kind of look down my nose at people who get stoned regularly in their 30s and beyond.

It's a movement nowadays, Joe Rogan and Eddie and lots of awesome dudes.  But in real life it's usually the guy with duct tape on his car.

If you’re in your 30’s and haven’t progressed to good blow you need to step it up.

i know man... its crazy shit.


its next level man - I am  big yogi too. i will hot flow yoga on an edible every so often.

i do recommend a bber to try 10-20 mg and train - not heavy - just do tons of reps at low weights. the pumps are insane.


take an uber to the gym - load up on carbs and pre work out pumps and take 10-20 mg edible 1 hour before training. its amazing.

My wife brings pot brownies home from a lady at work every now and that bakes them. I tried one, probably been 2 years ago and didn't do much for me. Decided I better just stick with beer. Maybe another recipe (https://www.ncsm.nl/english/information-for-patients/make-weed-brownies) would taste just better for me:)
