Lost my tolerance, almost lost my lunch...twice. Normal?
Lemme preface with this: I used to be a huge stoner. I used to smoke at least once a week--I never smoked every day because I didn't want to be a complete burnout. After I had a bad interaction with alcohol and pot (read: hallucinated my brains out, vomited like crazy, passed out), I stopped smoking entirely. The occasional hit once a year, but never enough to get stoned. I'm almost 23, and the last time I actually smoked up was when I was 15.
A few nights ago, I took three hits off a blunt, and immediately, my pulse started racing, my chest got hot, my entire esophagus felt like it was on fire and undulating like a lava lamp, I had no idea where I was, who I was with, or which house was mine. That lasted for hours, and it scared the shit out of me.
Last night, I had a few hits off a pipe, and I was feeling slightly better, but still pulse racing and not sure where I was. I also got extremely hyper...amphetamine hyper. Couldn't stop moving my legs and I had the undying urge to climb a tree.
I honestly don't remember if I ever have gotten that stoned before. It scared me to death. I was beyond lightweight status, and if people weren't worried about me, they were annoyed by me (blabbing on and on about stupid shit, or long intervals of silence and giggling).
It seems like I'm the only person I know who gets "up" on weed, and I know I usually get a bit nauseous when I smoke. Is this normal, or is it a sign of an allergy/intolerance?
(also, side question: why do some people get really sick off of pot and booze, but others have a blast?)
