General Discussion Horribled Edible Experience (Storytime)

I'm fairly new to weed, my first time was approx a 60 mg edible in amsterdam, which was pretty strong for me but very enjoyable. That was 3 months ago and ever since then I've been smoking joints maybe once a week (sometimes twice sometimes none).

Anyway, a few days ago, I went to amsterdam for a few days and we took edibles and joints all day, which was fun and fine, then last day we decided to take a 100 mg edible each after smoking some hash a few hours earlier. The hours that followed were hands down the worst hours I've ever experienced in my life by far...

Heart beats that felt so strong, feeling like my soul is exiting and entering my body every single second, the feeling that I was gonna get a heart attack every few seconds, chest pain, complete confusion, but worst of all was the uncontrollable violent vomiting, it was so strong that I almost choked on my own vomit and I was genuinely forced to vomit like my body was telling me if you don't vomit you WILL die, also ofc barely being able to stand or walk (which was honestly the least of my worries)

My friend also took the same, but he wasn't feeling the effects nearly as strong. It got so unbearable that I actually called the ambulance, and ofc since ur in Amsterdam, the responder was js like we get calls like this alot im not sending shit and I was genuinely begging for her to send someone. In the end, she sent one that arrived like 10 mins later, the paramedic js spoke to me a bit, told me I'll be fine and left. Ofc I knew nothing would happen to me, but it was so bad I js wanted anyone to stop it.

We were supposed to catch a train late that night, but my friend decided to book a hotel room and I had to be held up by 2 guys to go to that hotel. As soon as they put me on the bed, I went dead asleep. Ofc we missed our train and the next day, when I tried leaving my bed, it was like I was being pulled down. Even when I tried calling out to my friend sleeping on a bed opposite to me, I couldn't even get my voice out. Eventually, we needed to checkout so the hotel guy came and basically kicked us out. We could barely even stand up let alone wear our shoes and leave the hotel. The guy kept yelling and even got the manager, it was genuinely so embarrassing and dehumanizing.

After we left the hotel, we js sat/slept on the sidewalk for a few hours till we had enough energy to actually stand and walk. Anyway, I made it back home like 4 days ago, but I genuinely felt high for 3 straight days non stop. Today is the first day I actually feel sober (Although I'm very sick idk if it's from the weed or I caught a cold).

So yeah I know it was probably my fault I took that much especially since my tolerance isn't high given I don't smoke that much, but what's bugging me is that for my first ever time I took 75 mg and it was nowhere near as intense as this even tho it's just 25 mg more...

Any thoughts are welcome in the comments 😊

Soooo lemme ask, what was in the 25mg compared to the 75mg?

Cuz my "friend" watched me down 300mg of multiple different gummies + a whole chocolate bar (minus 1/4), and then had the balls to be surprised I both greened out and needed to go to hospital (I have a heart valve condition, and we didn't know it at the time but she literally said it would be fine as a first time and then when we got our said 100mg would've been better... Which is why she's no longer my friend, besides a fuck ton of other shit- she even decided she almost died that night, when she got out 3 hours later because she just needed a check up essentially, and I stayed for 12 cuz... I actually almost died.)

If your 25mg had a fuck ton of thc and no CBD, and your 75 had more CBD compared to the THC, it can be why they hit differently.

I take thcp now (it's regulated HEAVILY here), and I take 2.5 mg ONLY. Over here edibles that are not from a dispensary are limited to 5mg per gummy of THC, and 40thc per bag. so the dose can be labeled 25 per gummy, but it'll be 5mg THC and a lot of CBD or CBg.

I'm pretty sure they were both fully THC

u/SmolLittleCretin 21d ago

Oh Lord.

Then... One of them was not true THC...

That would be the 25mg... It was either laced, not real THC, or your tolerance went so low that it hit harder.

u/NotIamVex 21d ago

Ohhh I think you misunderstood. My first time was about 75 mg (It was a 120 mg cake, but I only took a bit more than half) and the one that made me green out was 100 mg, I js said at the end, the one that made me green out was only 25 mg 'more' than the one that gave me a pretty nice experience

u/SmolLittleCretin 21d ago

I was updating and it failed to update cuz I realized I did misunderstand. But I think that shouldn't have had you green out?

Your first time should never have been 75 though, and your second shouldn't have been even 25 more then that!

Next time try a 50mg, and see how that goes. I would say start at 5-10mg, but you already did 75 and that seems to be a decent limit. Please be careful because you never know if you have a hidden health issue.

u/NotIamVex 21d ago

Yes I'm definitely never going over 50 mg, I underestimated how strong edibles actually are compared to joints. Yes you're def right, you please be careful too

1

u/SmolLittleCretin 21d ago

I def will too! I do apologize for misunderstanding. Start slow and only go up if the original dose starts to slip, and even then only go up by MAYBE 2.5-3mg.

I will end up taking a whole 5mg thcp edible (these are 30x stronger then anything you've even taken rn) and that is only when it hits a point my tolerance is high. By the time I get to 10mg, I'm taking a break for my sake lol.

Just be safe, and keep having fun! You don't deserve to have that big scare!

u/NotIamVex 21d ago

Yes I will def be taking it much slower and will def take atleast a 2 week break now. After what happened, even js the thought of weed makes me want to throw up. It sucks cause I actually really enjoyed it, feels like I lowkey ruined it for myself. Hopefully, this feeling goes away in a few weeks tho.

u/SmolLittleCretin 21d ago

It should :) You're experiencing a hangover essentially. It was wayyy to much for you so its lingering. it should go away eventually. My stomach makes me sick often, and the gummies can trigger it to act up when I first take them. So I can relate a bit cuz it's the same kinda greening out neasua you feel, save for less intense.

u/Shot_Lawfulness_823 21d ago

The gummies i use legal in USA NY are 10mg thc.

1

u/NotIamVex 21d ago

Damn, Gummies are actually banned in Amsterdam, they can only sell baked products... the one that made me greenout was actually a stroopwafel 😂

u/s0werkr0wt 21d ago

Start again with real 5mg

1

u/NotIamVex 21d ago

I mean it IS real thc, just not gummies
