Stoned in Life in General

I tried edibles last night. It didn’t go well.

I smoked a little bit back in high school and a few years after, mostly if my roommate Michael asked me to. For a long time it was just normal, we’d get high and laugh a lot and that’d be the end of it. However I had a bad experience at one point and since then I didn’t really smoke anymore.

Fast forward to last night, nearly a decade since I last smoked and Jessica comes into the room and said “those new edibles I got, I think I did too much” but she had a smile on her face and didn’t seem upset, but now we know to lower her dose for sure.

I think she took too much because the first night she had them she started with 5, then added another 5 and didn’t feel anything. So last night she went straight to 30 and that was obviously too much.

So I decided I wanted to try it again and figured “well I’m bigger than her, so if I take 20 that should be the sweet spot.”

FUCK NO.

I was totally fine at first. It started out with me just being really sleepy. Eventually I was feeling it some and was like “aight this is okay” but of course I get the drymouth so I go and get a bubbly water and chug the whole thing.

That’s what did it I think. Something about that hitting my stomach made it kick into high gear within minutes.

It was like having a panic attack for like 90 minutes straight. idk why THC affects me that way these days when it used to be totally fine. The worst part was just freaking out while Jessica was sleeping and I was just sitting there alone. I tried not to wake her for a while but eventually my panic started to peak and so I did it anyway. She was so sweet about it too, reassuring me every few minutes or so that I was okay and that she wouldn’t go back to sleep until I felt better.

That’s honestly the only thing that got me through it all, just sitting there in bed holding her hand and watching 90 day fiance with her.

But finally at like 11:30pm I was starting to feel better. I felt bad for her because she needed to wake up at 5:00am for work and I was keeping her awake. But again, she was so nice about it. I married the right woman.

Anyway so that’s my experience. I had a panic attack on a 20mg dose of THC so I’m obviously not cut out for that shit lol.
