Anyone else dislike the physical effects of weed?

It could be psychological and if you’re not feeling good and in a good environment it’s gonna have a negative effect on your high. If you know that chewing black peppercorns will instantly kill the high your anxiety level will be controlled. CL

I never knew that about black pepper! I put shed loads on my food; perhaps o should avoid it!

But in all seriousness, or does sound very much like anxiety type symptoms.

It really does it though, something about the receptors in the brain. It’s almost instantly too. CL Edit: correction it’s the terps that make it work.

I'm worried that CBD would add to the physical stony sensations that I dislike. Does it not do that? I've never had CBD bud.

It's definitely not an infection.

I had this throat thing the very first time I smoked in 2004. I asked the host for some water, then realized my throat was fine. I think I just became more sensitive to the sensation of air going down my windpipe.

One interesting note. A few years ago I vaped some half dried early harvested homegrown out of a lightbulb vaporizer (I know I know lol) and it was the smoothest floatiest high. almost no body at all. Does anyone vape at low temperatures and experience that?

Edit: It also seems to happen more with combustion, and especially with "resiny" tar hits. Like at the end of a joint, or accidentally lighting the "resin" at the bottom of a bowl.

It started the same year I began taking lamictal. The thing is, most people who are on lamictal don't report the same effects with weed.

Dollars to doughnuts, that's the source of your issue regardless of what others experiences are.

 

[zaprjaques]

low temp vapes seem to do that for me too. but its depending on the cultivar.

Sadly you're probably right

I also often get muscle tension and shaking after smoking. Lamictal is used to treat seizures so maybe it's having a paradoxical reaction?

Final piece of the puzzle:

Benzos completely eliminate this feeling. I can smoke all I want if I have a little klonopin or xan in me.

Sounds like a panic attack to me. The bezos help reducing anxiety.

Don't do it man. Don't do benzodiazepines. You're just growing up. Deal with your thoughts and emotions and be an adult. Hug

I second what @D. B. Doober , says, Don't do Benzo's.
I worked in mental health all my working life and can attest to the damage that they cause. They're great for short term use, especially if the "thing" causing anxiety will pass soon, but for long term use they are highly addictive, personality changing and will cause far more harm than good.

Personally, although a 50 yr daily cannabis user myself, I would always advise anyone who had any type of mood disorder to avoid all psychotropic drugs.
I myself have suffered mood disorder and accompanying anxiety on 2 or 3 occasions in my life and they were the 2 or 3 occasions that I've had no interest at all in getting high.
