I'm working on a canna-almond recipe myself, and while I DID get the dosage per volume ratio correct, I DIDN'T anticipate the effect a couple of vapes would have about an hour AFTER I ingested my canna-almond drink.

Went from feeling perfectly at ease and enjoying the experience before the vapes, to glued to the ceiling after the vapes, where I remained for quite some time.

When it comes to edibles, it is extremely important to know the by volume ratio of cannabis to whatever it is you eat / drink. Less you end up glued to the ceiling.

And when it comes to combusting in conjunction WITH edible consumption, well....

I have always eaten to much, I overdue everything. I don't eat edibles anymore and I have a 24/7 supply in the house for years now thanks to the girlfriend. Last timne I ate a brownie, we had made a "150" recipe, it was 50% stronger then normal. The tips of my fingers became so ice cold even under scalding hot water I couldn't warm them up. My breathing always slows down and basically you feel like you are going to die. I have eaten shrooms quite a few times, and always over eating them to, and they never made me feel that shitty.

We supply a few senior citizens with edibles that I won't touch, directions are always start very small and work your way up until you feel it is a proper dose. To bad I can't follow my own directions, Om nom nom nom. lol

I smoke only no edibles for me, I like to be more free to regulate my buzz.

THC panic attacks are no joke,
I had 3 nibbles of some extremely potent medibles, got paranoid, hallucinated for a couple hours along with some shakes just a couple nights ago.

I remember in my younger years, I could not fathom a panic attack from herb. It just did not make sense to me..
Panic attacks are humbling.

When it comes to Bruce Lee's death:

"After a lengthy coroner's inquest in Hong Kong.... medical experts ...... drug Equagesic......

Sounds much more believable than "toxic hash".

Well that's the 'Official' (government) version, coming from a government and culture notorious for 'Saving Face' and Bruce Lee was a national icon.

Equagesic is a mild painkiller with a long track record commonly prescribed in Asia.

BL had his 1st attack of cerebral edema (blamed by his doctor on eating hash) and he wasn't taking Equagesic at that time.

This same doctor warned BL that if he ate the hash again he would die.

An overdose of edibles is no joke . Back in the early 80`s there was a lot of very good Afghani black around . I`d bought a 1/4oz in my local pub where i worked & was walking home along the high street when i became aware of a police car cruising very slowly behind me & had a feeling i was gonna get pulled . With 1 hand in my pocket i managed to get the foil off the lump , crush it & casually dropped it .
Just then i saw a copper in a shop window reflection get out the car just behind me so i palmed it into my mouth as i went to draw on my roll-up , & to this day i still don`t know how i done it but i managed to swallow the lump in one go luckily . I was very carefully searched by the 2 cops coz they said i looked suspicious .
Long story short it cost me 2 days off work with hallucinations sweats & paronoia along with screwed up diabetes coz i could`nt eat properly .
An ex girlfriend of mine had edibles the first time she ever tried canna cause she would`nt smoke & spent the entire night with very weird dreams & never went near it again .

Was havin few beer at a buddys one nite way back when a mutiual friend shot thru with some canna peanutbutter.. wow never felt that fucked up b4 in my life prayin to the porcilen gods swearing I would never drink and eat peanutbutter again.... wasn't that drunk I swear but you know how that goes drunk spins and smokin lead to the famous head flippin and then yackin.. proved with that peater pan peanutbutter" you can fly you can fly you can fly"....
 
My friends sister made budder with a grocery bag of good trim. She was starting up some cookies when we were leaving. The next day he stops and drops off 2 cookies. A nobake and a chocochip.. both were good sized. He said "she made enough budder to make 2 batches. So being the glutton for sweets that I am and being excited to finally try edibles I ate.them both.

45 minutes later I couldn't walk, talk or see straight. I started heaving and then pretty much went into a coma till the next morning.

I haven't fucked with edibles since.

Ive been high for 2 days from eating raw cannabis. The first day, my vision resembled what its like to open your eyes in a swimming pool. Was not un pleasant, just different. Slept for like, 5 hours then was just very couch locked stoned the next day, and for the next 2 days, I couldnt get high smoking weed. Nothing at all, in that time, made me panic. Some people just should not do drugs, at all.

Made some brownies with some oil that had a lousy taste compared to my other strains.

Wifey ate a half...too high, had to nap.
I ate 1-1/2...way too high, had to lay down. (no nap, why waste a good one.)

Farging Big Dog gets up and ate the three left on the counter.

I'll bet he thought he was gonna die. Dumb bastard laid on the bed for 2 days with his tongue hanging out and his eyes rolling around in different directions.
I put him out on the deck so he could run and take a piss. He took a piss laying on the deck.

Man, that hosing down part must have been a real bummer.

Cured that jerk from stealing food though.

These stories remind me of two situations that i encountered.

The first was when i was in college and my brother was visiting. My room mate and i had about an ounce of beaster shake laying around and decided that a bomb ass batch of brownies was on the horizon. After making the budder (2 sticks to one ounce of shake) and baking the betty crocker mix the three of us sat down and ate one each (2"x2"). For me the high was mellow and long. For my brother on the other hand, who was used to smoking commercial regs and the like, it was completely devestating. I physically saw the blood drain from his face at around 30 minutes in. white as a sheet he started shaking. He kept asking me what the hell i gave him. Looking back now that shit is funny. but at the time i felt really bad for him. The panic attack was so bad it was almost three years before he would touch the herbs again. To this day if im cooking edibles, he wont go near it.

The other situation involves me. About two years ago i had a massive run of haze. it yeilded something ont he order of 100 grams of larf that i set aside for a qwiso run. I use everclear when i make my qwiso. The whole use of isoproplyl turns me off. So i made a rather large batch with two bottles. that reduced down to about 2 grams of almost amber qwiso. My dumb ass not knowing any better (this was my first ride on the qwiso train) decided it would be best to break a third of the ball off and throw it into the roor. Well needless to say it was about 4 hours later when i returned to earth. During that time i had a massive panic attack, put away/hid all my paraphenalia, and was seriously contemplating the dismantling of my grow up during this time. The neighbors set off the fire alarmaround hour 3, thus sending me into a crazy ass paranoia.

Fact: dont fuck around with qwiso. less is more.
Fact: know your audience, nothing will make you feel like more of a shit bag then pot poisioning your friends/fam.

From my experiences and others eating hash oil that helps cancer ...

Very unlikely you will die ... just can lead a very very very unpleasant experience ...
some people first mentally can't handle it ... then there are bodily effects ...

When I got so high a passed out and breathing slowed the body will still always catch yourself. Just will gag and gasp all night :p

If you happen to throw up food etc also the body is still is in enough survival mode to gag it up ...

I am ashamed to have waken up to edible experiences where I blacked out and woke up with a sore through from gasping and a pile of food on the floor. Funny thing is I fell asleep fine the edibles took a few hours to kick in ... dohhhhh

It's all about moderation; but sometimes when you a using it medicinally you just want to get as much into body as you think you can ... sometimes it does actually get to a toxic / poison like level but wont kill yea unless you combine it with other drugs ...

oh i just posted that pic cause i had just found it. :)



btw, here is a tip for when you get the super whites (and either puke or think you are dying from a panic attack. (they dont kill ya, just feel awful.)

Breathe, focus on your breathing.

slow and steady breaths.

when you do this, you cant think.

while you still might slip and fall into paranoia, you´ll always eventually remember to focus on feeling calm and breathing.

keep some good music in the background (or ask someone too.)


there is a really interesting effect if you manage to calm yourself down at these high levels of thc dosage.


it was in this state that i started to see music as an landscape that i was totally immersed into.

great feeling, like being so high you are on top of everything. (and too relaxed to give a shit about anything but enjoying it. (at least when you are surrounded by good friends and are listening to good music, ive not often done this.))

hehe its pretty difficult to master this, at least for me and i do yoga and shit as a hobby, so you could consider it as a challenge and put aside 1-2 good days for doing this. :)

or not, i havent done this for a decade.

Funny, still getting neg rep for this thread, yet so many have similar stories to tell.

In hind sight I should have come up with a better name I guess. Thought about having the thread deleted but thought it would fizzle out and go away on it's own... thanks mud! lol

Get that Bruce Lee bullshit out of here. Read the article. A doctor that specializes in "cerebral edema from Nepalese hash ingestion." GTFOH!!!!!!LMAO Yeah guys, make sure you stay away from that toxic Nepalese hash...that Moroccan shit is good to go though! Stupid, stupid shit.

I mean, read this:
"It's one of the most near-lethal strains of *unrefined* hashish and is much more rarer than the refined types manufactured in the Middle East. "
The fucking idiot who penned that piece of shit can't even write.

"It's been documented to kill it's users the exact same way it killed Bruce on July 20th, 1973. It's neurological side effects are nightmarish, and contains over 4,000 chemical compounds, any one of which, his central nervous system could build up a sensitivity to, and so highly toxic, cerebral edema, kidney/ adrenal failure, vomiting, convulsions, cardiac arrest/coma and death is the result"
..... 4,000 chemical compounds? Gasoline, turpentine, cannabinoids? That his "central nervous system could build up a sensitivity to?" My cerebral cortex is building up a sensitivity to this toxic retardation of logic and thought. "It's been documented to kill it's users"...What documents? I'm going to die of the aneurism I'll inevitably suffer if I continue to run that gauntlet of dogshit. (here's the piece of shit...be warned http://www.bruceleedivinewind.com/death.html)



Panic attacks can be debilitating. I've had my worst ones when I wasn't high, but in the midst of an alcoholic binge. "Dude, I'm having a heart attack, dude I'm throwing up everywhere, dude I see elves marching outside."

Again, please don't run around telling people that cannabis almost killed you. It's extremely misleading. Your girlfriend and nurse of 25 years didn't discuss the symptoms and effects of panic attacks with you?

Here's a good song. To "remind" you.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fca-vivD5EY

Be easy! The same shit would have happened to me if I ate that much.
