So yesterday I smoked one joint with my boyfriend. I hadn't smoked weed for about a week. After I smoked I could feel something is different. I have smoked weed a lot in the past and never felt anything like this before.
I could feel something is off. We walked for minutes and I didn't even understand if I was human anymore. I couldn't control myself and wasn't able to speak. As we walked further it was getting more stronger and stronger. I slowly started to panic because I was thinking I'm going to fall down. This feeling that I couldn't describe was taking over me more intense every second. I would describe this feeling as being on LSD + smoked a joint of weed but in a bad way. I was constanly asking to my boyfriend - Was that really weed? What is happening to me? Am I going to die? Then I panicked more, I could feel my heart beating really fast. For few minutes I thought I was really going to die. I felt like I was going to be ripped apart. Like shattered in many pieces. I can't really describe it, but it was the scariest feeling I felt in my whole life. In some way we walked home and I went straight to cold shower to get more sober, but it didn't do anything to me. I still couldn't tell if I am human anymore and what is reality. We walked into room and I felt more calmer and happier as I listened to music. I was hallucinating hard too. The colors were changing and when I closed my eyes and I could see hallucinations like I would see on LSD or shrooms. The bad feeling was slowly fading away but still - it was there. Finally after two hours I felt stoned. Like normally stoned and everything was alright.

Is that possible that this was really from weed? Can it be THAT horrible? It was only one joint.. but maybe too much for me.
The other people who smoked it and my boyfriend felt completely fine and didn't say anything bad about the stuff.. Maybe it just was really really strong weed? I am afraid to smoke it again but maybe I will try it in low dosages.

What do you think?

in my experience, definitely. when i started smoking weed i'd hallucinate hard, could compare it to a mild trip, just like you described, visuals, total confusion and all that shit.

you smoked weed with a shitload of THC, and may be you being sober for a week before could have played a role due to your lowered tolerance. THC is ime very hallucinogenic and also to many people very anxiogenic... hence weed paranoia and all of that

also weed is the weirdest drug ever in the sense that it affects people so differently. and the same people react differently at the different times.
 
It's very possible. Too much caffeine was definitely an issue with my friend after a single bong rip left him feeling a loss of serve of time and space.

Without testing the bud you never know although I highly doubt it being laced unless it was that fake pot stuff in the smoke shop that will ruin weed forever and destroy your liver.
 
Could have had synthetic cannabinoids, but I think it's just a combination of weed and panic. I've experienced similar experiences even when my anxiety was really bad.
 
The peak can get very wavy.
I've just recently started vaporizing weed and it feels nothing like smoking bud, it's like sucking on MDMA lol. It's way more psychedelic. I find wax is like painkillers. But that just sounds like you panicked on the peak, that's something you don't do..
 
Thank you for answers, yesterday I smoked it again and the weird feeling was there but I it was controllable. I think that maybe it's just a different strain. More paranoid and more anxiety.. I hear there are strains like that.
Or maybe something was just wrong with the weed. Nevertheless, I have decided not to smoke it anymore.
 
Yep, this happened to me yesterday, you feel like you are in a dream and as a result you question if you are really still alive, you can't concentrate on anything and time moves really, really slowly. I also get CEV's and certain things I look at on a computer or phone look like a hologram.

When this first happens it can be a terrifying experience (as I know from first hand) but it has happened to me about 3 times now so in a way I am used to it, it still makes me feel on edge but I have a strong will so can stop myself freaking out.

Normally happens if you smoke too much, weed was 100% not laced as it's home-grown ;) I just didn't treat it with enough respect and underestimated its strength..

I'm not sure how much I believe that "strain is less/more anxiety prone" BS, weed is weed IMO yes granted different strains have different strengths and subtle flavours but thats about it.

When I first freaked out I stayed sober for 3 years lol but I eventually started again, taking it easy and smoking small amounts. Now I'm fine :)
