Hi everyone, I have a problem..

On weekends when I party, the classic mix is always: lots of beer, lots of cigarettes & Lots of weed.

But there is a pattern that keeps on showing up, I often "badtrip" these days, im not sure what it is, but when I mix these substances the effects are usually bad, I seem to not be able to smoke when I drink anymore and everytime I smoke weed and i smoke cigarettes I feel like I will puke. I used to rarely puke when I took drugs and now it happens quite often...

When I started getting most concerned was during the christmas holidays, i puked what looked like cigarette & weed tar... i did that twice in a matter of a week.

I have taken extacy and thought that maybe it has a link with me not feeling that good but when i take E i'm fine..

and just as a FYI I used to smoke weed everyday , and i used to smoke about 10 cigarettes a day & 3 packs a weekend

Can anyone help? :S
The situation seems to be getting better but I still have the lingering puking feeling once in awhile.
 
perhaps it is your body's way of saying, "quit hurting me"?
 
Could be, but im 16, im in good enough shape and none of my friends go through this stuff...

and many of them do harder drugs and in bigger quantities
 
Yeah man, listen to your body. It's telling you that smashing it with various substances every weekend is making it very unhappy. Don't guage whether or not you should be fine doing these drugs just judging from how your friends react to weed and alcohol, because, well, they aren't you :)

If you want to have fun on the weekends, why not just drink, OR just smoke weed. That really is the only solution to your problem. If you continue combining the two, it's only going to get worse.

As for the cigarettes, ideally you should try to cut them out altogether. But I know at your age that's probably unlikely because all of your friends probably smoke cigs too and it's like a status thing. But again, if you can try to cut down the amount of cigs you smoke when you're stoned, that is really the only solution to the nausea problem.
 
Thanks for the advice, I've been trying to find ways to solve the problem, These days I tend to not smoke cigs right after joints like i usually did (when I smoke weed I tend to chain smoke)

I've also switched to lighter cigarettes and they feel less harsh on me while im fucked up.
I guess I'll try just drinking or just smoking :)
 
Large amounts of alcohol, weed, and cigarettes seems to be pretty typical party combination but I also find it is likely to lead to feeling sick...I don't really understand how people can easily combine these two substances throughout the entire night. The body doesn't like taking in smoke...and mixing weed/cigarettes all evening can really add up to a whole lot of smoke.

Anyways this happens to me too....got really sick a month or so ago after drinking lots of beer, eating McDonalds, and then smoking a joint. Alcohol and weed just seem to be better separated, IMO :)
 
I understand you Legerity, what I find makes me bad trip the most is when I'm sllightly intoxicated from the alcohol and I'm high as a kyte and I smoke a cigarette, because when i'm high i think alot and then I tend to feel lost and I get abit paranoid and then I think about the harm the cigarettes are doing and then ...puke hah.

I`ve also discovered that drinking all night and finishing the night off with a nice big joint is perfect and is actually better than smoking while drinking, makes a nice walk home lol
 
Cigarettes inducing/exacerbating nausea in people who are getting drunk/high is very common... especially when you're young and haven't been a heavy smoker for a long time. You're just exceeding what your body can handle of nicotine, alcohol and cannabis.

I imagine the atmosphere you're partying in is likely not conducive to moderation but if you don't want to keep feeling shitty, this is the ONLY logical solution. Cut out of the cigarettes or cut back on all of it.


EDIT:

Its probably basic classical conditioning as well. You consumed too much before, got sick and you associate the cigarette with that experience so just like Pavlov's dog salivating at the ring of a bell, these previously unconditioned stimuli are now evoking that nausea (probably most the cigarettes).
 
Quit the cigarettes and cut down on the weed. I'd recommend cutting out alcohol altogether as well, but I'm sure a couple of beers per week isn't going to kill you.

Personally, tobacco smoke makes me gag when I'm high (tastes like hay and dog shit mixed together when you have a dry mouth) and booze+weed is guaranteed nausea for me (I can't lay down, sit back or stand up, just sit bolt upright staying perfectly still or I start throwing up in my mouth). I've never been able to handle either of those combinations, and I'm not surprised that other people have trouble with them as well.
 
I've already cut down on the weed, alcohol on its own isnt much of a problem since I only drink weekends. I've cut down on cigarettes alot also but I cant seem to be able to quit.
I want to in one way, but in another way...I love my cigarettes.

One step I will take is I wont smoke cigarettes whenever I feel like it, I'll only smoke a few daily, and I wont smoke them while drinking/smoking up due to the problems that arise.
 
I agree with changed. Two of those substances are poison and the third should be used in moderation or as a medicine.

/this is coming from someone who abused all three for many, many years and I didn't hurt my health to much (never was a heavy smoker...haven't smoked for a few years)....so do what you will man.....just know it is a long road ahead.
 
I have noticed the smokes doing this, because sometimes at school when I smoke during breaks, I sometimes feel the nausea , sometimes i get in class and i just feel so horrible. Sucks my body doensnt tolerate the cigarettes well...cuz they feel ..so good.
 
Thanks, and thank you everyone for the useful opinions, it feels good to know im not crazy hah
