CBD (375 mg)/THC (15 mg). I experienced an uncomfortable soreness afterwards.

edit: I thought it may have been the CBD but most likely due to a combination of other things (asthenia, dehydration, drug Interactions, heavy carrier oils).

If you're new to cbd and have 0 tolerance, it's best to work your way up to these larger doses.

You can. I've seen it more than once. You can't die (probably) but you can certainly overdose and feel like you're going to die and feel like shit the next day.

Some of the OTC gummies have some crazy stuff in them. I knew several people that purchased some thinking they were really just THC/CBD. But we're in a state where pot is illegal and CBD is only tolerated. There are tons of terrible products being sold OTC here by shady people that opened stores in the area (most can't speak English). They're popping up left and right everywhere. Sometimes 4 shops in the same shopping center. We have more of them than fast food places now.

A lot of people I know have bought gummies, "pre-rolls", and oil from these places and had a really horrible time. Like worse than dosing someone with LSD without telling them times.

That's really strange, something has to be way off there
 
Fair point. The gummies I had were from the same jar. After I worked my way up I was able to take almost a gram without the soreness.
 
It's possible that some gummies out of the same jar might have been laced and others clean, it's just unlikely. It seemed muscular and all over.

Well the "gas station" stuff could be anything of course. But I've seen bad reactions even with so-called legit products.

Where I live THC/pot is very restricted. Like 1990s-level prohibition restricted. But if I drive 10-15 minutes North I'm in a legal state. So a lot of people drive up there to purchase various cannabis products and CBD products. My father obtained a bunch of gummies in addition to some other products (like infused spirits and flower). He had a "freak out" and so did his friends with some of the gummy bears despite having a massive tolerance to THC at the time and not taking a large amount. I'm talking 1/2-1 gummy total. Gummies that were supposed to be the weaker variety. Oral THC is different than smoking it of course. But they shouldn't have had that type of reaction. I took one myself and it did me the same way and I've eaten a lot of cannabis in my time.

Some of the "medical grade" flower barely got you high at all. It looked, smells and tasted like fire. But it gave no buzz to speak of and didn't give you the munchies.

There have been tons of bootleg THC cartridges going around here for years as well. If you look online you can buy packaging for popular well known brands easily to be paired with fake cartridges. Many of these are being sold out of local smoke shops and even some of the legal shops in the state north of my location.

You never know what you're going to get.

Another major issue with most of this stuff is the fact that dose even within the same bottle can vary wildly. Same is true of all the OTC opioid-like substances on the market now. You can buy a package of those tablets that claim say 7.5mg of active material per half a pill. But one pill might feel like taking 3 and then the next is nothing but sugar.

With the gummies I've seen locally there are been several cases where you could tell there was nothing in them at all. Then you'd grab the next one out of the bottle and it tasted so foul the sugar couldn't cover it up.

Of course there are a lot of small time scam artists on the black market as well. Plenty of people now will buy ounces of the CBD flower then attempt to re-sell it on the street as dank weed. Since it looks, smells, and tastes like dank weed people get scammed easily.

If anything since the states around me have started going legal the market for cannabis locally is worse than it was before. Back in the day it was awful because it was all seedy Mexican brick weed. But from about the end of the 2000s through the late 2010s we had an excellent selection and good quality on the local black market. You were either going to get some fire bud or oil for a decent price, some Mexican brick weed at rock bottom prices (many still preferred it) or you could buy legit edibles at decent prices. Since the "Government weed" has shown up on the market things have been awful. It's to the point where a lot of people I know stopped smoking all together.

The mere use of this word, "overdosed", in your title is an insult to our intelligence and it is most regretable that our moderatorship will leave this on display as yet another troll trophy on the perpetual Wall-of-Shame which we routinely observe around here. That's especially severe on a board where true dangers of « O.D. » are present in other forums, and to be pristine clear, the discomgort you described is a side-effect of poor judgment from individuals who frequently like to pose as "experts", except those are experts of failure as we saw on April 7, after a freshly-registered newbie flooded the place with his authoritarian "knowledge" in less than 30 minutes...

A probation period would alleviate the temptation for instant gratification, at the very least there should be a delay to tame down occurences of trashy clickbait with such sensationalist headlines paving the front page. In short this sort of pollution is a disgrace that constantly renews itself before similar events even have time to evaporate, which simply ain't the mandate of any cannabis thread IMHO. The posting of over a dozen texts in a matter of 2 days resembles strangely the "contribution" of vanbc27, who didn't feel it could be useful to use the search function neither.

Quality discourse requires patience and that's clearly lacking here.
 
Why are you guys so picky about his choice to use the word overdose. A overdose doesn't imply a death. It's regularly used by people to describe taking too much of any particular substance.

The OP doesn't offend me and I've nearly died more times than I can count from heavy opioids.
 
This thread should probably be retitled or moved @nepalnt21 , it's arguably a form of eyecatching misinformation, just my opinion though.

I've eaten over 3 grams of CBD on no tolerance, it's a great time. I'm assuming OP had the sample he consumed tested in a mass spec, so he's not just making wild claims?

An OD does mean exactly 'over-dosing' yes, but in our kinda culture now it really does imply a sort of acute risk to your health that could be dangerous.

You probably have this term in your region but we always called eating/smoking too much weed as 'greening out'. Yeah it sucks but it isn't gonna kill you. Same way if you take too much acid yeah you could say it's an 'overdose' but you aren't really in any physical danger.

If you had an allergic reaction CBD and had to be shot with adrenaline, then that would be a more appropriate to a weed 'overdose'. I'd say OP just had a bad time is all.
 
"Muscular soreness is not a commonly reported side effect of CBD. However, taking 350 mg of CBD with zero tolerance is a massive dose. A standard starting dose is usually between 10 mg and 50 mg. While doses of 300 mg to 600 mg are sometimes used for severe neurological conditions. Introducing that much to a naive system can trigger intense, off-target reactions. The soreness might not be from the CBD itself. Unregulated CBD products may have heavy carrier oils (like MCT or hemp seed oil). Mild systemic inflammation or gastrointestinal distress are possible if your body isn't used to them."

I also edited the original post to be more clear.

On no tolerance I've gone as high as 3 (it might've been 3.2?) grams of CBD dosed at once. I want to say, I have no idea if this is safe but the material acquired was from state licensed cannabis laboratories back in Maine. CBD over ~1.75g on absolutely no tolerance is probably worthy of being classed as an empathogen, but it's certainly best if you can choke down the insane amount of smoke it makes vs eating it which isn't very worthwhile with CBD.

We always said "smoked yourself sober".

Concerning overdose usage: I do not equate overdose to mean death/near death experience. Most people I know don't either. Which is why you often here: "OD and died" or "overdosing" (meaning "not dead yet"). But yes I'm aware it can imply death. But it's more the risk of imminent death/getting close to death and not death itself.

I overdosed on alcohol once but I didn't die. I've overdosed on opioids many times and didn't die (probably should have). As a wee lad I even overdosed on cannabis once and puked my guts out because my body was trying to reject it any way it could (I did it smoking as well not edibles).

It's totally possible that OP's body just doesn't like CBD or he got something that really wasn't what it claimed it was and he slightly overdosed on it. A lot of drugs require an "overdose" to get desired effects (a buzz). For example, I doubt there is a doctor, chemist or researcher anywhere on the planet that would advocate for taking several grams of gabapentin in a 24 hour period. Yet people do it all of the time for a buzz. It's technically an overdose and the next day you can have bad effects like sore muscles. Which could be an indication that the person had a seizure while unaware in their stupor/sleep. Happened to me (I think) more than once.

One time I mistakenly overdosed on oxycodone+oxymorphone+alprazolam combo dosing over the course of 16 hours or so. Someone else provided the drugs and I was snorting large lines of what I assumed was oxycodone. What I didn't know was he was mixing oxymorphone in with each and every line. We snorted a week supply for two users with a very heavy tolerance over the course of that day without him or I being aware of it. Since he ate a handful of xanax bars and was crushing up pills probably ever 10-15 minutes without realizing it. We only figured it out when I took him home and he peeked in the bottle and saw he only had a few of each left.

Amazingly, I felt no ill effects other than nodding/being really buzzed until I attempted to leave his house for the drive home. We snorted one more pill before I left that I guess put me over the edge. My eyes started bouncing uncontrollably to the point where I couldn't see the road. I made it home and sat in a recliner. Started nodding and not breathing on and off for hours. Was convinced I was going to die. Was tracking time based on what was on my television. I'd come to about once or twice every hour, realize I was ODing again, try really hard to stay awake but always nod back off without any control. If not for my massive tolerance I surely would have died. It would have easily killed most anyone else. But somehow I made it. I felt like total shit the next day of course (well for several days).

By any measure the above was an overdose. A lucky overdose but an overdose none the less.

Substances also just act funny in different people. I can take all the codeine I want if I'm willing to deal with a horrible histamine reaction. You give my Grandmother a standard dose and she'll die. Any dose is an "overdose" for her. My friend can drink it like water and suffer no ill effects at all (and not many positive ones either). No amount is an overdose for him. Same substance different livers.

I see OP edited their original post and he's probably right. But it's important to keep in mind that even the most begin substances for 99.999% of the population can kill people that are unlucky enough to be in the 0.0001%.
