I went right to the comments to read through the potheads' posts reacting to this video. You dudes didn't disappoint. LOL!
I had an ulcer for a while from eating Takis, yes it helped me eat when i would have stomach pains, load a bowl, get munchies, and find something to eat, also, hot showers helped me with settling down my stomach, a bowl/joint would do me nicely, after the abdominal surgery, no problems, it's just recreational at this point
I've had this happen to me where I go all out in a panic attack and my heart rate is super high. I think the high heart rate helps the panic attack.
I learned that whenever I started to have this panic attack, or even prior, drink some beer. Liquor once made it worse so I say beer.
Now I quit beer and weed. Too old for that and although I think weed is really fantastic 99% of the time, I think we are lied to on how addictive it is. I'm not saying it's like meth or whatever is physically addictive. But in the past I have tried to quit many times and I would fiend for weed so bad. Wouldn't be able to enjoy anything.
Just not worth it for me any more. I've been sober of beer since Dec. And I've quit weed.. okay I just viewed my texts. I last smoked Saturday? It feels longer. >_< this time I am done though. I'm doing the keto diet and trying to live healthier.
Despite all the claims of positive health(I remember a nurse joking I found my zen when I went to my doctor's appointment high and she was commenting on how well my blood pressure was). That was years ago and it's not like this any more. I get a chronic cough if I binge smoke for several days now too. In the past I and ppl I associated with believed weed kept us free from colds. I am in the middle of a cold now and had one last month and the cough both times are worse than usual.
The predisposed argument is correct. Even though I quit smoking, I could never find my older self. Perhaps that’s a good thing, all I know is that I developed paranoia, anxiety and stress related issues because of cannabis use. I may go back to it someday, but i might take a few beta-blockers in advance.
Cannabis hyperemesis diagnosis is factitious and may cause harm because there is no blood test just Kentucky windage guessing which will stop the medical workup and miss resl disease like cancers etc
I’ve smoked weed everyday for about 15 years. I recently had an ear infection that led to me developing tmj (jawbone disorder).. in the past 2 weeks I have been forced to quit tobacco and alcohol which I wanted to do. But now weed smoke is affecting me as well causing my jaw to swell and pressure in my ears. I’ve been to doctor 3 times in the past two weeks and it seems a like I’m going to have to quit marijuana. This is causing me even more anxiety and I feel like I’m losing my mind. Need help😢
I’m sick of the tobacco and alcohol industry destroying life’s globally and it’s federally legal alcohol let’s evil people cope is the cause for most violence murders in the world today
Sugar has killed more ppl than cannabis , yes agree with smoking to much it’s like anything else it’s called discipline and common sense knowing your body .. rewarding yourself with a bong is way better than just abusing weed it needs to be federally legal otherwise we know why it isn’t comes from big pharma and big alcohol and tobacco company’s pushing remedial lies the war on drugs was a war on cannabis which fueled other drugs and big pharma the system is way pass repair we need to come together and march at these peoples homes big pharma rich assholes that sit behind a mansion and tell us what to do enough of this conformaty political system infested with corruption needs to end
In the words of an admitted alcoholic living in the wild in Arizona, "I don't drink to get drunk, I drink to be normal!" Thus it is my considered opinion that people become addicted to drugs or alcohol do so to compensate for childhood psychic trauma which itself is the result of wholesale pathetic parenting skills. In a society of excesses such as America where more is better and most is best the attitude towards mood-altering substances is "Most is best!" It's not, it's the law of diminishing returns! There is a tipping point at which after imbibing a MEASURED dose of cannabis, a portal to expanded consciousness opens up. Many people experience a psychotic effect which is as a result of confronting a truth that is so terrifying being that it is so disconnected from their whole worldview and the response to consuming more. There's absolutely nothing wrong with clean marijuana, but it seems there is a lot wrong with those who produce it and a lot of those who smoke it!
I think the marijuana itself isn't bad for you, just the smoking part is. Edibles are probably healthier, but a lot of people don't like the effects they have. I have also changed to hemp wraps without nicotine or tobacco in them.
😂 HAHAHAHA NO WAY A ANYTHING TO DO WITH MEDICAL HE CANT SPEAK LET ALONE HELP SOMEONE 😂😂 WAHAAAAAAAAAAAA. HAHAHAHAHAHAZHAHAHA😂😂😂😂😂😂 GET THE F OUT HERE WTF HAHAHAAHAHA😂😂😂😂😂
Use to be a daily weed smoker for about 5 months, I would smoke Multiple a day. I have OD on weed 6 or 7 times in those 5 months, absolutely horrible… you get incredibly sick… dizzy… and heart rate through the roof, I've been to the ER a few times but since they were so busy.. by the time they got to me I was already fine. You don't die from a Green out.. but since you're panicking so much you think you're dying. I remember 2 green outs I had, I'll never forget, I was at my friends house.. we went for a walk down a road for awhile to get some hemp paper for joints. On the way back we rolled one up and smoked while walking, it was great.. I felt fine. By the time we got back to the house, I wasn't High anymore, my tolerance for weed was very strong since I had been smoking everyday, so usually I'd only be high for 30 minutes.. which is crazy. So we rolled up another joint… I smoked most of it.. my friend only took one puff. Maybe 1 minute later I felt incredibly sick… the worst stomach sick I've ever felt, so I got up off the couch to go outside.. I'm amazed I could even walk, there was a Picnic table a few feet away from the house door so my Instinct was to go over to it and wait out the sickness I felt. On my way to the table I almost blacked out twice and at that point I became very dizzy and started to panic. Finally I got to the table, and I face planted my face on the table and tried to wait it out. Every time I tried to raise my head up the dizziness would become more insane, but when I would have my head down, it felt like I was doing a million flips. I tried to manually throw up but I couldn't, then I got off the table and just layed on the ground. Even I started to feel better, my heart rate and dizziness went away, after I snapped out of it I was extremely hungry, my friend had started cooking eggs and potatoes, I proceeded to eat 4 full size potatoes and 2 eggs😂
Just say no to marijuana. Smoking this trash who you will end up in the hospital is it worth your lungs icy know your health is more important drugs or not to answer
Funny my Dr just prescribed me medical mariguana instead of pills lol. I told him about this and he said a lot of ppl says a lot of things and it’s up to you to believe it. So I rather smoke than take pills for life
As a daily smoker, i feel that sativa is causing the most harm mentally.. If its an indica dominant with 20% CBD 10% sativa (etc) then im okay, because the psycologic effect/headhigh isn't disturbing my focus.. Try to test this info by asking if the patient was smoking/eating a sativa dominant like 70-80% dominant and 20-30% indica..

I'm done with weed.

The only dark side to weed is the law…. Man made laws … Put the same restrictions of pot on alcohol…. Ban high alcohol products… Then let's talk…
I have too Quit because it’s giving me Sinus Infections 😭
Physicians are not educated in cannabis or the Endocannabinoid signaling system you are ignorant of
No one is putting fentanyl in pot
Cannabis hyperemesis diagnosis is factitious and may cause harm because there is no blood test just Kentucky windage guessing which will stop the medical workup and miss resl disease like cancers etc
I call bullshit on this ignorant ER doc maybe consider podiatry?
Cannabis has been shown to cause cancer. He need to start reading the research articles

I feel like that bad stuff that happen to us from smoking Marijuana is from eating crap from having the munchies
i do get concerned with language like that, from Medical Doctors especially.
"Every single day"… No
Just say no to marijuana. Smoking this trash who you will end up in the hospital is it worth your lungs icy know your health is more important drugs or not to answer
Funny my Dr just prescribed me medical mariguana instead of pills lol. I told him about this and he said a lot of ppl says a lot of things and it’s up to you to believe it.
So I rather smoke than take pills for life
I’m going to quit after watching this! It’s just time to better myself…. I’ll download this and listen to it if I get the itch..😅
Cannabis smoke contains more tar than tobacco smoke. The one thing being, people don't tend to smoke 20 joints a day.
As a daily smoker, i feel that sativa is causing the most harm mentally..
If its an indica dominant with 20% CBD 10% sativa (etc) then im okay, because the psycologic effect/headhigh isn't disturbing my focus..
Try to test this info by asking if the patient was smoking/eating a sativa dominant like 70-80% dominant and 20-30% indica..
