Title: Smoking pot. A tool for intensity.
Post by: MikMaq on October 13, 2013, 03:16:18 PM
Seriously I'm going through a third renaissance with my pot smoking what a blast. It's like  learning to run blind folded. I'm starting to believe by far the best way to push yourself forward is to set yourself back. How else can one adapt without challenges.

agreed.... kept going and going, couldnt find a rythm, all over the place... and like you said,  all I wanted to do was lay down shut my eyes and let it go crazy, but I couldnt, had to regulate my breathing, and pray that my heart didnt do something crazy.

Used to hapoen to me with coke all the time. .what I didn't realize was I had adult acid reflux and the cocaine aggravated it.  

So I would whack down a few lines....everything is honky dory, feeling good....then after about an hour and a decent amount of blow....I start getting sharp pains in my "chest" which is really the acid in my esophagus.

 but now I'm high as fuck and truly believe I'm having a heart attack.....this snowballs and now I'm nervous as fuck...heart is pounding out of my chest because I'm freaking out... and I truly think I'm going to die....I went so far as to drive myself to the emergency room twice.

One day I just chewed on a few Tums and a Gas-X and It was gone in seconds.

Weed has never been shown to cause heart attacks or heart trouble. Tell me if I'm wrong.
What Falcon and BigRo describe sounds like an anxiety reaction to me.

It's anxiety. I've seen many pussies throw down an entire pot brownie when told to only try a small piece first. Or someone saying "I know what I'm doing" and hitting a giant bong with a bowl that fits an 1/8th of weed. Even a hardcore stoner will feel a lot off one puff if you just put the joint down and let it work it's magic. With the advent of really high quality oil extracts, pollen butters and waxes it's a lot easier to ingest WAY too much in a short period of time. It'll toss any man on his ass so be careful with the potencies out there everyone.

I quit smoking recently because I had a fucked up anxiety attack off some primo shit. As funny as it is to laugh about now, it was totally not cool when it went down. I have no plans on going back. This has only happened to me twice and the first time I quit and now a couple years later, I've quit again. I won't say its for good, but my days of blazin' like I used to are done. That shit freaked me the hell out. No thanks. I believe the THC content to CBD content was to unbalanced with the THC being very high. It happened off of ONE HIT. So either it was lased with something (It wasn't I asked a buddy that had some from the same batch and he said it was bomb) or the THC was too high for me. I believe it was the latter.

On the plus side, I've been getting alot of things done although it's been rough falling asleep but it's returning to normal. It's been an interesting 5 years of weed experiences but all things much come to an end and I feel compfy in my decision.

It certainly does increase heart rate.

Quote


Effects on the Heart

Within a few minutes after smoking marijuana, the heart begins beating more rapidly and the blood pressure drops. Marijuana can cause the heart beat to increase by 20 to 50 beats per minute, and can increase even more if other drugs are used at the same time.

Because of the lower blood pressure and higher heart rate, researchers found that users' risk for a heart attack is four times higher within the first hour after smoking marijuana, compared to their general risk of heart attack when not smoking

Trust me, my arrhythmia was not anxiety.

But thats because I had been smoking meth for a couple days and I started smoking weed to relax. Upper+downer (that increases heart rate)= massive cns confusion.
(Worse than IV mixing meth and heroin)

terrible night.

I thought the bro science on Meth was it can't give you a heart attack ? Was never a meth guy..don't know

.you have to use a serious amount to OD, usually you just 'overamp' and your brain shuts down, and you wake up a couple hours later. most ODs in the real world are massive IV use. I got close a few times shooting, never smoking.

IMHO coke always felt more intense on my heart/cns than meth did... except when I mixed meth with other shit.

mixing rec drugs is a dangerous business.

I abused a lot of substances over the years and as I got older I found the side effects during and after got much worse. So bad it's not even worth poisoning myself anymore...

Don't make me laugh. Laced weed... You should know more than anyone that NO ONE laces shit. Ever. Unless you have a junky friend that was smoking some left over crack dust in his joint, you did not smoke anything laced. You just smoked potent weed, which is a lot more common with the advent of compassion clubs, internet guides and availability of hydroponic equipment and techniques, etc. And it can throw even a vet on their ass.

At Thanksgiving dinner my aunt said they grew some bag seed in their greenhouse and it was the most potent weed they had ever smoked, and they've lived in BC their entire lives. I tried it, and it almost threw me on my ass despite crushing a big dinner. It is very easy to grow. They call it "weed" because it grows like a weed and is very forgiving. Water it, cut it at the right time and properly dry/cure it and you will have triple AAA weed with any almost any ditch seed.

When you baby the plant and really try hard, you can grow some disgustingly potent strains. My pot butter I made is so potent, I can only eat a nibble the size of a skittle and sometimes it's still too heavy for me.

me too. The highs got less intense, the comedowns got harsher and the recovery periods have lengthened considerably.

Biggest reason I dont want to use anymore, is that there isnt anything left for me. takes to much time and effort for not that much fun.

I know guys keeping up old habits thinking the cops are after them every time they use stuff like blow or crystal. Just to end up depressed and anxious, with no money, working every week just to do it all over again when they get paid.

here's how it was for me... At 25 years old I could get banged up all weekend suffer Sunday, and drag my ass to work Monday.

get fucked up on a Tuesday and just tough it out Wednesday... Shit like that.

at 40 years old, you get high... You can't get out of bed for 5 days. Its not that you're being lazy, or saying fuck it... You are literally unable to function.  I have to be able to function... I'm not a multimillionaire

fuck man, I ran so hard when I was using that's how I am at 28. I relapsed on meth about 8 months ago, bought 120 bucks worth, IVd it in a day..... took me 4 days laid up before I could function. I missed 3 days of work.

I remember doing that shit in a night, for 4 days straight (and never sleeping) and never missing work just 3 years ago.

Yeah I used to be able to function but now in my 30's I'm completely useless for a couple days. Another thing that helps keep me away is the fucked up shit you see when in the party scene. Nothing positive ever comes of it....well, a lot of meaningless sex but at some point you get bored of that too.

Compared to downtown East Van your area is a Church picnic.

I was on the mainland and took a wrong turn and found myself there on a Friday night. Was waiting for the GPS to redirect me and then I heard a big "THUMP!!" some fucking junky was hitting my vehicle with a boot and swinging it around. He fell down as an RCMP officer was approaching (cool as a cucumber, totally used to this BS) and just kind of gestured for him to go to the sidewalk. Bunch of bloody rigs fell out of his jacket and he just left them there.

Looked to the sidewalk and everyone was sitting on stoops huffing from crack pipes, walking down the street with a mad crack swing or in a corner heating up some dope to shoot right in the open. I knew it was rough but I've never seen such a huge concentration of people smoking and shooting dope in the open. :-X

It's everywhere. True zombies...it's sad when you see 16-18 yr olds who are heroin addicts, and that is common.

No kidding. I keep hearing things about kids in elementary school selling weed and coke. WEED AND COKE!?!?!?! I knew what weed was back then, but I barely even knew what coke was until I was in high school. It's so sad when kids are barely in high school and they're taking off their shoe strings to lace up and shoot up. My fuck. It's so sad.

Those types of people are the worst. I don't like scuzzy drug addicts hanging out around me in large numbers, but I can easily empathize with them. They're addicted, and even for the most mentally stable and strong it can be a hell of a journey to get clean and sober. But people like pawn shop owners and slumlords are a million times worse. They're healthy and fully cognizant and know that they're ripping off people who couldn't be more down on their luck. Absolutely despicable.

I'm glad the Canadian Conservative government didn't close the Vancouver Insite. They give addicts a place that's safe and secure to use their drugs. People freak out and say it's supporting their drug habit, but it's better to do it there with nurses on site than in a children's playground with used rigs (always HIV and hep pos, always) or finding bodies in the streets. People are too scared to talk about the drug people because they might get mixed up as supporting drugs. No one wants to support hardcore drug use, but we all share a common vision in mitigating it. And treating this issue as a criminal one isn't helping, because everyone knows a junky will go to any length to get high. Give them some love and medical treatment. You'll find less rigs on the sidewalk and fewer bodies in the street. Heck, maybe they'll completely recover, get a job and pay taxes like other supportive members of society. Just a thought.

I had never seen anything like it anywhere in my life. At least its concentrated in that area whereas in other cities it's scattered all around. Man, I stayed in gastown which I thought would be ok not knowing how close I was to the zombies. First day there, just as you noticed I saw people hitting their crack pipes in broad day light and people scattered all along every alleyway huddled around shooting up.

Needless to say I moved to burnaby shortly after that.

The whole mainland is insane now. I'm brown, jacked, and rock a man purse (yes, a murse) and damn near everyone thinks I'm a gangster when I go there. Heaven forbid I wear a Gucci or Armani t-shirt, people will walk way out of their way to go around me. Feels bad that young brown dudes get stereotyped like that, but I guess our demographic did it to ourselves. They all work 24/7. Drug market never closes. It's sad.

You should follow Kim Bolan's blog, The Real Scoop, as she covers all the G news from the mainland. She's covering that crazy Surrey Six trial where a couple of low level G's killed 6 people in a brutal and unimaginable fashion. They told some kid to pay a $100k tax for slinging in their area and he didn't pay up. So they were get him to visit them at the Balmoral and shoot him. But instead they ran into some snags and ended up grabbing innocent people and shot 6 in total including a tenant of the building and a dude fixing fucking fireplaces.

They didn't get out-of-town hitters, did it during broad daylight, kid drove his own fucking car to the scene, tons of witnesses, no escape plan, shot them all in their drug house (runners would pick up from the apartment and a couple cooks cooked crack), etc.... the stupidest and most brash hit I can think of. Usually they just pistol whip and rob each other. And the only time innocents get caught in crossfire are when big time G's are targeted in a hit but this was more senseless than ever.

I think the trial resumes on Tuesday. It's been really interesting shit. A lot of my Asian friends moved there and to Alberta to sell drugs and half of them are dead or wearing bulletproof vests. Any time they come ask me to party in Van I tell them "fuck no". Bunch of stupid wannabe gangsters. By the time they make it, they've got a hit on their head and the clock starts ticking. A couple days ago my old neighbor just ended up in the news paper. He was shot execution style in his backyard. I wonder if he still feels like a G now...

I'm not in bc right now bro but possibly going right back.

I was planning on getting into the drug business but reconsidering after your post here.  ;D

Really though, it goes to show it doesn't matter where on the planet you are, if you're looking for trouble you'll find it.

Seriously I'm going through a third renaissance with my pot smoking what a blast. It's like  learning to run blind folded. I'm starting to believe by far the best way to push yourself forward is to set yourself back. How else can one adapt without challenges.

When somebody has as many mental problems as you, it is not wise to do pot.

Trust me, my arrhythmia was not anxiety.

But thats because I had been smoking meth for a couple days and I started smoking weed to relax. Upper+downer (that increases heart rate)= massive cns confusion.
(Worse than IV mixing meth and heroin)

terrible night.

i always did shit when high like throwing rapid lightening punches. People like van and wiggs are beta's they are lazy and never get there heart rate up

LOL, I have an anxiety disorder as it is. Getting as high as humanly possible is not a good idea for me. I admit I'm a little faggy and beta that way. :D

But why did you ever stop smoking Falcon if you are so alpha?

I know someone who takes a big hit and immediately has to do push-ups, chins or just jump around... is this common behavior for stoners? :D

Used to hapoen to me with coke all the time. .what I didn't realize was I had adult acid reflux and the cocaine aggravated it.  

So I would whack down a few lines....everything is honky dory, feeling good....then after about an hour and a decent amount of blow....I start getting sharp pains in my "chest" which is really the acid in my esophagus.

 but now I'm high as fuck and truly believe I'm having a heart attack.....this snowballs and now I'm nervous as fuck...heart is pounding out of my chest because I'm freaking out... and I truly think I'm going to die....I went so far as to drive myself to the emergency room twice.

One day I just chewed on a few Tums and a Gas-X and It was gone in seconds.

My god this brings back memories!! Had that exact problem.

this because it jacks up your heart rate. also not nearly everyone has this mentality to do pushups and do shit right after there high this is the alpha approach to getting high

you take the beta approach and dont lift im guessing you just sit there and maybe giggle and stare like a zombie

i cant handle the shit the stuff makes my heart beat over 120bpm fuck that its too intense, if i were to do pushups with that starting heart rate id be pageing god
