Fuck! I'm high. NORMAL?

So I got high as a teen by smoking it. Never smoked if for 15 odd years. Recently started using edibles for pain (I have lupus). No worries. Taken half a few times. Starting taking whole ones about 2 weeks ago, last one Friday. Took one about 7pm tonight and felt good but fine, pain helped, as usual. But then suddenly as of about 9pm I am SO FUCKING HIGH. Like, SuperHans-high. I've eaten about 12 penguins bars and a six pack of veg crisps meant for the kids packed lunch. My husband is here and thinks this is HILARIOUS. I'm headed for the whole block of cheese in the fridge door and laughing my arse off at Gavin and Stacey on iPlayer.

Is this normal? I've never had this while taking edibles before for the past month or so.

Thanks anyone kind enough (or high enough) to answer.

@WiddlinDiddlin there are private clinics where you can get it prescribed to your specific medical needs, they work out what strengths would be best for you. As it's grown in a lab they can change the THC and CBD levels for you. So I have "day time weed" where the THC is lower but the CBD is higher. And "night time weed" where the THC is higher.

They can also do different types i think so you can be prescribed the actual bud or other forms like vaping liquids.

@FlatWhiteExtraHot that's one of the main reasons why I get mine on prescription, it's grown in a laboratory.

If you were to try and procure some of the ingredients for the cake, how does one phrase quantities nowadays? 3.5g seems a little specific 😂

@LaurieFairyCake @ilovepixie Sapphire clinic for a legal prescription in the uk

NannyOggsWhiskyStash · 19/10/2022 08:20

I grow my own weed,and make edibles and medicinal balm, it's lovely stuff,but hard to predict the strength when eating edibles. If you are prone to paranoia,avoid high THC, Indica strains.

28g in an ounce so 7g in a quarter etc.

theemmadilemma · 19/10/2022 08:22

Brilliant.

😂

Tip for you. CBD can help bring you down off the high if you can have some handy in case it happens again.

That will be the issue with edibles. It's difficult to predict how strong if they're home made.

If I post a review site then it’s not the actual site and I’m in the clear…. 😬😅

Edibles are designed to get you high. You have no real idea what's in them. They often have zero THC in them, it's usually cannabinoid antagonists or forms of spice. I'm sure many of you have now seen the spice zombies unconscious in the streets of cities etc. If not, look it up.

The manufacture and import of these edibles are not licensed, not tested, and are not safe.

Find another way to deal with your pain. This isn't it.

I used to smoke fairly regularly as a youngster, went to Amsterdam on one occasion and bought a brownie, ate half no effect, ate the other half and then it all hit, in the middle of day-glo underground crazy golf. Felt like my legs were being controlled by someone else, which reminded me of the Wallace and Gromit film the wrong trousers, which led to a few hours of sporadically saying I've got the wrong trousers, and falling about laughing until my stomach muscles hurt, and eating my own body weight in plate sized pancakes.
Great day.

Foreverfrustrated · 19/10/2022 08:43

Where I am
A) it's very difficult to get solids
B) when they show up its mega expensive 🙄
I don't think I'd waste 3.5 in brownies, as much as I love chocolate 😋
Great thread though 👏

If you use a dry herb vapouriser, save the abv (already vaped bud) and make some edibles, the abv still contains up to 30% of the vital ingredient.

Dank bakery on Instagram do gourmet edibles, but for the love of god, don't eat a whole one! 5 hours of manual breathing is no way to spend an evening.

I tried weeks ago to request follow Dank Bakery and still not accepted. I'll never get my edibles 😭😭 my circles are all wrong!

Littleyellowbowl · 19/10/2022 09:26

@coolo they have a website, I just googled dank bakery

Totally normal. I'm jealous 😂

Mine gets weirdly better. I used to get stoned at lunchtime at six form, so maybe it puts me back in learning more 😁.

Same, I used to take an early lunch when I knew I'd be writing any philosophy based essays!

Interesting... one may have HYPOTHETICALLY made a purchase of low dose gummies...

Do edibles make you as paranoid as when you smoke the stuff? Just asking for a friend who would love to get as high as a kite, but gets really bad paranoia when smoking it 😕

They did me. Only had one once because my back was hurting and I was convinced I was going to die from a burp that was stuck in my throat. Time also slowed right down, a bit like when you drop acid. It was fucking horrible and I'd never touch them again.

dawnfromgavinandstacey · 19/10/2022 11:30

@crumpetswithjam will you please provide a hypothetical review of shipping time and effects? Grin

AlphaAlpha · 19/10/2022 12:14

@Coolo
DM dankbakery they will get back to you eventually. It all went a bit nuts after the clapham Incident.

crumpetswithjam · 19/10/2022 15:52

I just wish they'd legalise it in this country. It could help so many people like me with chronic pain and huge anxiety (thanks autism).

kateandme · 19/10/2022 18:15

I hate to admit how much I want some of this for pain.some day seem impossible.and iv e often wondered where I could get them from.but not been trusting or brave enough to go further than needing it.
