Social Cannabis a Hallucinogenic?

A hallucination is the materialization of something that isn't there, at all.
(most) Psychedelics don't (usually) create true hallucinations, but visuals,
distortions of what's already there, bleeding into something else.

I'd definitely all cannabis a psychedelic. Mild compared to LSD, mushrooms,
DMT and the other classics, but it's not mild if you have no tolerance
and gobbles down 1g of space-cake in amsterdam. That shit made me
feel like I was candy-flipping.
 
I have seen water-prints of Disney-characters while baked after long breaks, running round on my white walls.
But I wouldn't call that a hallucination equal to the real hallucinations of datura, when you talk to dead people
and smoke cigarettes made out of thin air.
 
Just took down a quarter pound, ain't high enough. Just took the whole 16 ain't high enough...i ain't ever high enough!
 
Weed is definitely a Hallucinogen. Its hard to believe that your friend smokes 20 to 30 bowls a day. If I smoked that much I'd be laying in bed twiching my body around spinning and tripping my ass off. A few bowls maby, but not 20 to 30 in a day. But thats just me.
 
weed can give me insane visuals and also breakthroughs as powerful as any psychedelic if consumed in major amounts.

Agreed with this. Anyone who doesn't think weed is capable of psychedelic or hallucinating effects hasn't tried high dose edibles.
 
the first time i smoked a good amount of weed i smoked like twenty bowls of non seeded outdoors and i had delayed vision with trails and saw all of these colors in the air. i've never really experienced anything like it, maybe being drunk but being drunk is a lot less colorful. after a few times smoking this went away and it just turned into an average buzz. i didn't get much visuals other than closed eyes. as time went on i kept using a lot of different psychedelic drugs and i think i got HPPD and weed definitely brings that out a lot more, so it feels like i get open eye visuals from weed. a lot of closed eye visuals too, but they aren't really as intense as harder psychedelics. with weed it's like i see all colors and images in my mind on a black screen but all the images and colors are mostly transparent. on higher doses of shrooms or acid i start to get more stuff that looks like reality or on shrooms being in a video game. it's a lot less transparent. the colors are more full. the closed eye visuals of weed is always entertaining for me, just not really as intense.

i smoke a couple grams a day and i will get a few couple second transparent open eye visuals each days, maybe it will look like a couple flash shots on a camera or something too along with images. i have schizophrenia though, so i think i might get more hallucinations than some people becuase of this. it all just depends on how active a person's brain is. i can smoke less too and still get visuals. sometimes i get them when i even don't smoke, but that happens a lot less. so i'm kind of stuck in a psychedelic place with out drugs, which i like. weed is definitely hallucinogenic though for some people.

to all the people talking about edibles being psychedelic. i'm the total opposite. edibles just make me super tired and weird feeling. i don't really get any psychedelic effects. smoking i definitely get the psychedelia. i guess people just got to try what's best for them.
 
i am surprised that others have had hallucinations from weed.

it's absolutely a psychedelic, but i can't say i've had any straight up daylight hallucinations.
 
The visions are chaotic, fleeting and reminiscent of hypnagogic states, compared to psychedelic visions which are structured, evolving and seemingly tangible.
 
the best description of cannabis is not hallucinogenic but psychotropic
and the effects will as with all psychotropics vary entirely on dose and the user
 
Sorry if I already wrote this but once I ate huge amount of edibles made with a very potent concentrate. And given preferences of a friend who gave it to me it was probably made with some uplifting strain. So he gave me few mars bar sized chocolate edibles, I think 4 or 5 and went to make a coffee. I assumed one was made so the potency is such that person with normal tolerance gets pretty high from it and that ½ or ¼ is just fine for someone with low tolerance. By the time he made us coffee I ate them all, when eating edibles I like to get as high as I can and he didn’t point out he’s gifting me enough for a week. He panicked a bit when he saw I ate it all and told me how mutual friend (regular smoker for decades) ate half of it and thought he’s dying lol. I thought well, that ain’t gonna happen to me. I ate very high doses of edibles previously, tho with a lot bigger tolerance than that day and I also experimented with very potent cannabinoids and hardly ever had a bad experience. And what followed was nothing like I expected, being stoned as one can get stoned for a day, well I was within 15min. We concluded if I’m gonna go to my place I better go right away. Maybe 5min more and on the way home munchies kick in and I stupidly stop to grab a snack. While I was eating in maybe 5 – 10min more I realized I’m fucked, I was insanely stoned. Mental and body high were both very intense but not unpleasant at all. I continued my walk home and very soon I was barely able to walk. Walking on medium dose of K is easier. Every step felt like I was lifting a ton, going down and up the stairs felt like climbing Everest. I seriously considered just crashing in some bushes and hoping no one will find me before I recover. I would say that effects weren’t psychedelic at all (possibly such effects were overpowered), in fact if anything this felt more like mix of slight dissociation and some heavy downer. I did have visual distortions, but like everything was fogy but street light and such, no patterns that I recall. I somehow managed to get home, crashed on the bed and fell asleep/passed out almost immediately (even I though I might recover a bit and at least put some music and enjoy, as it was pretty enjoyable no matter the intensity). After many hours I woke up to the smell of weed but it was weird and after opening my eyes I realized I vomited while sleeping. I was still pretty high even after waking up, but actually not that much as I would assumed given how insanely stoned I was before sleep.

On some other occasions when I ate, very high, but not insane amounts of edibles I had experiences where hints of psychedelia were there, especially during walks in wood or while enjoying music somewhere.
 
All my American public school graduates! This one's for you!

Y'all know that cafeteria noise? Just a hundred thousand conversations all meshing into a single background of noise?

That shit used to hit me in the dead of the night on long walks home after getting high with my favorite smoking buddy. Got to the point where I felt like I was walking home with a whole auditorium's-worth of mother fuckers just escorting me around the lakes.

Shit got tense when all the chatter turned to laughter, though. That shit was like my spidey sense.
 
it can be, i fried my brain with DPH and i see things in the corners of my eyes when im sober and when im really high it gets more intense, but typically not really, unless you smoke a pound of pot or smth
