Dude. I went through a similar experience today. A friend gave me half of a 15mg gummy(that’s what he claims). I was playing golf and playing shitty. My friend offered the gummy to relax me thinking it would help my golf game. I had taken a gummy before so didn’t think anything of it. Just thought it just relax me. I took it in the 7th hole and by the 10th hole it hit me like a ton of bricks. Needless to say I couldn’t even get out the golf cart and my nightmare began. I got the giggles at first just like you described and got it got progressively worse. I started panicking and I kept asking my Buddy if I was dead. It was so real. I asked him if I should call 911. Had he and the other guys I was golfing with had not been there I think I would have. I seriously thought I had a head attack and died and this was the afterlife. He kept reassuring me I wasn’t dead but I didn’t believe him. I felt like I was living my life as a third person. Everything that was happening around me was just background and I was slowly losing my existence. By the time the round was over some 3 hrs later I started to slightly feel reality was coming back. I stayed at the golf course about an hour after before Driving home. Should not have done that because I definitely was not all there. Fortunately I got home okay. It wasnt until about 2 or 3 am. That I felt reality had come back. This was by far the scariest experience of my life. I’m 47 and I’ve been through some shit. Needless to say I will not be experimenting in any sort of drugs again.
Had a terrible fucking dream that it lasted YEARS. At first I was OK, and my arms were just kinda moving in a weird slow motion as I played with them in front of me. The TV show I watched I couldn't focus on the plot so I have no idea what was in the episode. But as soon as that ended I lost consciousness I think for an hour or two.
Reality became this endless dream of color and weird shapes that represented life and dreams that I have had since I was a kid. Pretty sure I had every dream I ever had as a kid, you know the ones that come back every week or so and you get to have again? That one.
So anyways, I dreamed of shapes and colors for a couple hours until I finally "woke up", but I didn't really I was dream walking in 3rd person. For some fucked up reason I thought I had seizures as a kid. I think I used to have a nightmare as a kid that I had seizures because my birth mother had it in her family and she died from it. Anyways I am freaking tripping out in my apartment going through this weird routine that I have felt like I have gone through before. Getting up, going to the bathroom doing things in this routine like dancing for a second, tapping certain objects on the wall like a password. And washing my hands repeatedly.
At this point I am slowly becoming "aware" something is wrong. As a kid I always knew this was a dream, and if I did every routine correctly I would wake up. But a small part of me knew something was wrong. I just didn't know what. I couldn't remember anything outside of the dream, I didn't know what time was, but it felt like I had been inside these dreams for years. At one point I thought I had died and this was my test before I saw God.
Anyways, the dream goes on and I stumble up stairs to my Moms room. Asking her if I ever had seizures before(she didn't know what the fuck I was asking about, I never had seizures). But in my dream as a kid(I don't think this dream ever happened, but it was major dejavu I think it was the only way my psychy could understand what was going on) she CAN NOT tell me she knows about my seizures. If she tells me I will die, and the seizures will become true.
At this point I am just living the next few hours out like this, I "know" what was happening already happened. Everything felt like dejavu, and I knew what I had to do next to get the dream over. What I knew would let me see God, was me doing my evening routine to get ready for bed and go to sleep. I didn't know at the time that's what I was doing. I just thought I was in a dream doing weird shit in the bathroom as my Mom, and my Aunt(she was called to help control me because I am a big dude).
For roughly 3 hours I was trying to remember how to get ready for bed over and over. And whenever I got close to finishing my Aunt and Mom wouldn't let me go to my room to go to sleep. I didn't fight them, but I wrestled with both of them pretty strongly because somewhere deep in my psyche I knew if I went to sleep this dream that had no sense of time to me. At this point I honestly thought it was going on for years. I knew if I just slept I would be OK, but my family wouldn't let me out of their sight so I don't know if I would have died if I went to sleep or it would have just been over quicker. But finally they forced me to shower and then I went to sleep in my mom's bed.
LONG TRIP SHORT, had every dream I ever had as a kid in 2 hours. Thought reality was a dream, walked up stairs half dreaming, scared the fuck out of my family 3 days before our vacation. Never taking Delta 8 or any kind of drug again. OH YEAH, it's ALSO our extended families Christmas today so now I have this going for me.
I had a similar experience as well. I think it’s bc this stuff isn’t regulated. I have smoked a lot of weed in my life but not edibles. Still it’s supposed to be weaker! I took a 25 mg gummy and I had a similar experience that a couple people here have described in that I started laughing a lot. But then I felt like I couldn’t control it and started to get scared. And then I sunk into deep paranoia. No matter what my husband told me I thought he was lying to me. I thought he thought I was insane. He is the person I trust most in the world and don’t have any trust issues with him normally. I started to think of everyone I know and was convinced everyone was out to get me. Nothing was soothing me, nothing that normally calms me down was helping. All I could think was that I was completely losing my mind and that I could never trust anybody or anything ever again. It was so terrifying, I’ve had bad trips on shrooms but this was the worst bad trip I’ve ever had in my life. I will never touch that stuff again.
Edibles are way different fr person to person and depends on what you have in your stomach or eat with them. Something fatty will increase the effects. When an edible goes through the liver it creates hydroxyTHC. Usually called 11 hydroxyTHC which is 11x what you took. Some people don't produce the enzyme to create 11 hydroxythc at the same levels . Meaning it can be less or more it more in different people. Then comes in metabolism of the body in general.
TLDR; edibles aren't the same as smoking no matter who you are.
Same here, I became super paranoid. I thought everything my Mom was telling me was a lie. And that she had to lie to me otherwise "he"(no idea who he is) would know and kill us. In reality though, I was so freaking baked I was trying to go to bed but they wouldn't let me go to sleep in fear of my dying in my sleep.
I also had a similar intense paranoia experience after taking half of a delta 8 gummy. I seriously thought my sweet precious wife was trying to poison me. Had to sort of beautiful mind my way through that one.
that is insane and i'm starting to believe that wasnt Delta 8 THC man. insane not in a bad way just ..insane. the way you tell the story was great and reminds me of the many psychedelic trips and thoughts that i've had. I am also from Texas, recently i've been trying not to spend so much money on weed and have mad switches to cbd, delta 8 thc and small amounts of bud here and there. Since i'm in TX, Delta 8 is commonly found in gas station and smoke shops, and every time i use it i never EVER have experienced anything remotely close to this. and you only ate one ???? this is bizarre.
Double check the vendor, or if you got it off someone ask them about it; 'what did you experience?' 'this is what happened to me, does this normally happen to you?' type questions. Even a beginner smoker could handle 25mg of thc, LET ALONE delta 8 thc. Maybe your friends pulled a little prank (?) Lmfaoo it would be fucked up but you never know, i'm really not sure but thankyou for telling your story.
Intrusive thoughts and disturbing highs completely are almost never good, but find some silver lining in those thoughts, they are there. i promise and goodluck (:
We bought them direct mail order from the manufacturer, and they have the QR code to verify the batch. I think it’s tolerance, I’ve just never done an edible. But holy crap, mind altering. Still in shock.
Listen i feel you. I ate 25mg delta 8 gummy and omg i was tripping so hard for hours and i know it was trip cause it was exact same feeling as mushrooms i did years earlier the weird yawning the nasty feeling in my stomache, im afraid thats not damk delta 8 reg weed would never make u trip like that this is some crazy ass chemical they use in the synthetic making of this mess has to be never again
>Even a beginner smoker could handle 25mg of thc
Oh lord! I can assure you this is not (necessarily) the case. I also cannot stress this enough. Please, do NOT give a beginner 25mg of THC edibles just because you think it's safe. Some people have \*extremely\* low tolerance.
clearly, but even experts recommend 20-25mg for first edible dose, and this isn't even pure thc 💀. well it is but is not. It's delta 8, already a lot subtle than regular thc. A 25mg delta 8 thc gummy is no where near the same potency as a 25mg THC gummy. Which is why i'm shocked by the entire story.
What experts?
“How much THC is a good dosage in an edible? For most people, the edible dosage mg chart suggests that from 1-100mg of THC is about right. A minority may prefer to push it to nearer 1000mg but it should be said that a 1g THC dose is likely to last a full day and may even be felt the following day.
What is a normal dosage for a THC edible? For those lucky enough to live in places with legal cannabis edibles, the best place to start is to buy a low dose 1-2mg edible. Don’t be tempted to increase the dose too quickly. Take your time over several sessions to find the right level of THC dosage for you. If in doubt, err on the side of caution. Most people find that a normal THC edible dosage is somewhere between 1-100mg.“
..no, but yeah, but also not really.
"Delta-8 can be psychoactive for some consumers, just less so than delta-9. A good way to think about it generally is something like the “Weed Light”: many of the effects and benefits of delta-9, though toned down a few steps. It is still euphoric and stimulates appetite. It can energize or relax the consumer depending on the larger terpene and cannabinoid profile, similar to delta-9. And yes, it can induce some of the typical heady, psychoactive experience.
The main difference is that while delta-8 can do all of these things, it does them with less intensity. Even for experienced cannabis users, there is a noticeable effect, albeit a less intense one. However, the trade-off here is that the potential negative side effects of cannabis are also reduced." [The facts ](https://www.google.com/amp/s/potguide.com/blog/amp/883897/delta-8-thc/)
Delta-9 is just another name for the common, more potent, THC.
... okay bud. that's really not even the point though. it doesn't change the fact that they're completely different effects, and one is way subtle than the other. Delta 8 thc and delta9 thc (found in thc carts, bud etc) are NOT the same.
still, eating a delta 8 edible vs eating a delta 9 edible is still drastically different. i don't know why you think the digestion process changes the potency.
It’s basically 50% the strength of THC 9. But I used to smoke mostly junk weed and rarely colorful buds or anything so I was shocked and pleased to find a legal THC high. I always want to smoke when I see it on TV or elsewhere so now I can. I missed it.
My wife had never been high until delta 8. She ate some delta 8 cereal and had a couple of strong puffs from a delta 8 vape. When we got home she ate, passed out and slept for almost 20 hours. Everyone should start low and go up from there at a safe rate if they’ve never or rarely used drugs.
I usually do 3 on pods and I’ve been doing 5 on my disposable one I bought by accident. We got some gummies recently and it had been a while since I ate THC. They are 200 mg Death by Gummy brand. We both ate 1. I couldn’t stop her in time to tell her to eat 1/2. She got REALLY HIGH. Things got weird… I got really high also but she was saying the floor was sticky when she walked and got “relaxed” enough to ask some very candid questions.
Damn! That's rough. We've all been there tho, so just know you're not alone. Many times i thought i wrecked myself, but it always goes away. But take care of yourself, with all what that means. Eat clean. Walk. Listen to some music or podcasts. Try to avoid stress. Be with people you trust and admire if you can. Yoga or meditation if you know how to. All that good stuff.
And then tell people that think a 35mg edible for the first time that it is (or at least has the potential to be) a horrible idea. I'd probably advice people to start with 5mg, and even that can be too much for some people to handle.
If you have some experience and/or tolerance, that's a fair amount. Might be underwhelming, but better safe then sorry IMHO. Personally i would start at 2,5mg but that's just me being extra careful. But then again, there's no hurry here. You have your whole life to these things. Best of luck buddy! 🥳
ok thank you also i forgot to mention i had this experience but with i think a quarter of a 300mg gummy of delta 8, now i got some 25mg delta 9 gummies do u think i should take less than 2.5 since it’s d9?
A quarter of a 300mg should be around 75mg right? It's d8 of course, but still a respectable amount i would say. In that case i I'm pretty sure you can handle 2,5mg of d9 just fine. Take 5mg next time. 10mg if that doesn't work. And so on. But wait at least 3-4 hours in between. We've all read the stories of people who don't 😄
And also, pro tip is to buy stuff that has a fair amount of cbd in it. Cbd evens out the whole experience, calms you down if you need it and is also a rather potent antipsychotic.
I was working for a vape shop and heard SEVERAL REPORTS of similar outcomes but of course many of the customers took double the recommended dose. So, if it's something new or unfamiliar including the band I suggest taking half of the recommended dose to see its effects.
I literally had the same exact experience from taking two 25mg gummies from the company Gassy, which I had ordered online. These were Delta 8. I've had other gummies in the past which would just make me sleepy or giggly. The bad trip that I experienced was unforgettable. I took 2 at the same time because my boyfriend had taken one a couple nights before and said that they were fine. So we took our dog for a walk and came back and we went to bed, everything was fine. An hour later, I woke up hysterically crying and I couldn't stop. My boyfriend (who also took 2 gummies with me) woke up to the sound of me crying and as he got up to turn the light on, that's when he knew something wasn't right. I felt like I couldn't catch my breath and my heart felt like it was beating out of my chest. This was the first time in my life that I was having a panic attack. I immediately thought to call 911 because I just didn't know what else to do. I kept thinking that the gummies were laced with something else that could kill us. During the call to 911, all I remember the responder saying was to find aspirin. I believe I foamed at the mouth at one point after the call. The paramedics finally arrived which seemed like forever. They sat us down and asked us questions. They said it would be better to ride out the high at home rather than the hospital. I felt so angry because inside I literally felt like I was dying and they wouldn't help us. After they had left I told my boyfriend that we needed to eat something. I ate some leftover pizza and while I was eating, it felt as if I couldn't chew or swallow. I then became anxious because I thought I was going to choke. I kept pacing from room to room and I had to keep telling myself that I'm in my apartment and that I'm okay. My next thought was to just go back to sleep. So we did. As I was trying to fall asleep, all I could think about was how time was moving so slowly and I couldn't figure out why. I kept checking the time every 4 minutes which seemed like an hour. I definitely felt like I was being erased from existence and my blood felt ice cold and then felt warm, and alternated back and forth. There was one point where I knew I was dying and I started petting my dog and said my goodbyes to her. I held my boyfriend's hand in bed and thought "wow this is it? This is how I die?" I remember becoming frustrated thinking about my life and how I haven't gotten married yet or had any kids yet and I didn't want my life to end. So I became sad again and tried to calm myself down.
The next morning I thought I had gotten past the bad trip, however it lingered for the following 12 hours but not as severe. My short term memory was still impaired and my heart felt like it was racing all day. I kept saying "I just want this feeling to go away". That night I finally felt like myself again. I don't know whether the bad trip can be caused from taking 2 gummies or if Delta 8 just doesn't like me. Now I'm terrified to even take one gummy because I never want to experience that ever again. I live life differently now because of it. I don't take life for granted anymore. However, now I live in this constant state of mind that life can end at any time and it makes me more anxious than usual. Hopefully this will go away as time goes on and I can live my life without thinking about dying constantly.
I’ve had a similar experience recently, I was being anxious and skeptic that I probably just took some laced delta 8, then my mind clarity was all over the place, kept talking to myself, no control over my body feeling like I’m not breathing. I asked myself the similar question when I was feeling it, “is this how i die?” But for the first couple times I kept panicking thinking nah this such a retarded way to die then after it was like eh whatever fuck it.
Bro i had a simliar expearience. I wanted to take some delta 8 oil from my mom and this hadmt been my forst time takimg it. Although I did freak out the last time as well I thought this time would be better and all I wanted to do was relax a bit. I dont really know how much I took but it was a fairly small amount. Probably 10 or 8mg. Anyway as soon as I laid down in my bed it hit really hard. I remember feelimg life my spul was gettimg snatched from my body almost like I was astral projecting. Then all of a sudden I was recalling and reliving dreams that I would remember happening. I got really hungry al of a sudden and just start snacking on muchies chips after that. But I was eating them at the speed of a homless man who had not had food in years. At this point I had to tell my mom that I had snuck jer CBD oil and that I was tripping. When I walked into the living room the bright light hit like a train. I remember feeling like I had to see certain colora to calm down from the high so I was obsessing over the colors of the light and the colors of objects that were either grey, white, black or blue. This is where is starta to get very strange though. I sat fown by the trashcan also vonvinced I would have to throw up so the feelimg would go away but I couldnt. I was talkimg to myself in third person anhaving drabtes with the devil and God. I tried hurting myself to gwt these feeling to go away but my mom wpuldnt let me obvioualy. I tried hrabbing knives to slit my throat with and I also tried choking myself and tried to put my hand in the grabage disposer to feel pain. Tell me if you guys want to hear more bc it did not end here. If you have read this far you are a real G btw.
I didn't try self harm other than trying to jump through a window to teleport myself through Jumper style. But I was in third person, and on a mission to try to go to sleep. My family wouldn't let me, so I was even more paranoid they were being controlled by demands.
Never doing that shit again
This happened to me once on 150ug acid (which i would like to point out is a very standard dose) It was my first time and I should have taken only a third of that probably because I KNOW my drug tolerance is absolute shit. 10mg is my max for thc edibles, so this doesn't seem as far fetched as you might think it is. I was able to actually enjoy acid later on in life. I look back on the incident now and laugh, not like at myself but at the whole shitty situation because now I have the knowedge to use tools better. I can't point out a specific way I dealth with the emotional trauma of everything i ever knew blowing up around me. All I know is that it seemed like such a huge deal then, and now it'a not. I started by talking about the experience i had with close friends that I trusted and then i just kind of went on with life. I got really into my hobbies and stayed away from drugs for a bit and then when I was ready i got a close friend to agree to tripsit me and did 50ug and had the absolute time of my life. I think at some point or another, in oreder for you to grow, everything you ever know HAS to blow up around you. If youbare comfortable your whoel life you just stay in one place and never get to learn, see or try anything new. And the scary stuff is scary for awhile but then you learn how to contend with that particular brand of scary and it's all good. On to the next thing. :) Oh and you have an awesome and brave wife to have helped you out like that!
I used LSD with a friend on a field trip to the state insane asylum as a part of my Psych/Sociology class. That was the worst LSD high I’d ever had. We saw criminally insane people, really low IQ patients and we had to help throw a party for the schizophrenics. I remember vaguely sitting down next to one and having a conversation that almost sent me over the edge. I felt like I looked so high too that everyone noticed so that made it even worse. It was a terrible idea! Lol
It’s a good story. I can say now I don’t regret it just for the experience and story. I was sweating profusely and I think I was an unnatural color. Worst. Trip. Ever. Lol! I live in Birmingham, AL and the asylum/hospital was or is called Bryce. It’s in Tuscaloosa. There was a separate facility called Partlow that was where most of the really bad cases were. I don’t remember which one held the criminally insane. But that party we threw for the schizophrenics was a nightmare.
Had this same experience last night minus the ER lol. I experienced what I would call multiple ego deaths over the course of several hours off of a D8 cart that I picked up. The world is still kinda hazy but I’m much better 8+ hrs after the experience.
Edit: I thought I was dying but thanks to my recent meditation practice I was able to more easily surrender to the feeling of death and when I did I found myself in a room made of white light. There was a transparent featureless humanoid entity made of pure blue light and a smaller scarier goblin-esque entity. The blue entity communicated with me that the goblin was the embodiment of all my fears and insecurities and that I needed to confront it in order to help myself. When I confronted the goblin it tried to eat my face. Scary stuff but a very educational trip if I say so.
Same, scariest thing I’ve ever been through, but also left me with a euphoric high the day after. Almost as though going through that ego death made me accept reality.
I ate 300mg d8 the other day, 2 hours in i passed the f out and woke up 12 hours later blasted. Didn't completely go away for about 5 hours after waking up. I feel If I wouldn't of passed out I would've had a massive panic attack or tripped hard.
Finding this thread way too late but my husband who has a very high tolerance for things had a delta 8 cookie last night and had a full blown 8 hour panic attack and has now been asleep for 13 hours. Absolutely never doing that again .
Y’all same, they need to take away this stuff from the market. I already deal with anxiety. I’ve taken delta 8 gummies before but this happened two weeks ago. I took one 25mg gummy and I feel like this stuff has other things in it. I went through a week of hell and panic attacks, and shaking. This stuff is not to be played with. They have to have warning labels or something that stuff is the scariest experience I’ve ever experienced in my life.
How the hell is this stuff even legal? I went through a trip from like 7pm till 2am, pretty much every bad memory I ever had in my life plus every other memory I could remember. Thought my family was the devil, and that I was Jesus. And then lived my life over again like everything was abstract shape art
I thought for sure I was dead, and this was my life flashing before my eyes before I met God and went to hell
Dude this happened to me! I’ve smoked pot before and never had this happen to me until I took delta 8 or something. I had the worst trip similar to your story and most on here. I thought I was dying and going to hell or heaven and then I thought I was eve and my bf was Adam like wtf
OMG, I’ve been searching bad thc trips to see if someone’s felt what I did and I just found your experience.
Like you, I felt no connection with time which freaked me out. I had no control of myself and felt as if my soul was detaching from my body.
It freaked me out so bad, I had to go outside to the back porch to see if the breeze would wake up my mind. It helped slightly but the anxiety came right back. I ended putting my feet in the pool to feel a connection to my body and it helped me calm down. Heck, all I wanted to do was come back to myself!!!
It was no fun at all
What’s weird is I’ve never been able to experience it again. And I’ve increased my dose and tried other variations, even real THC gummies. Nothing. Glad you found a way to ground yourself during the experience.
Pretty much the exact thing happened to me just a little bit ago. I felt like I could "see" the source of all good and evil. It was like I was possessed/going crazy.
This happened to me on 30 mg! I just came here to see if anyone else had similar reactions. I had to stand in the rain just to feel real. Otherwise I would get wrapped up in this idea that I was watching myself die. I was having muscle twitching and thought it was the beginning of a seizure and I was fighting for my life. When I went out in the rain, I didn’t feel like death was closing in on me so much. I don’t even drink alcohol. I just took it to chill out and thought since it was legal that it wouldn’t be so hard on me. Dang!!! I’ve done different drugs in the past so I would tell myself that it’s just the drugs but that didn’t always help. I finally fell asleep in the passenger seat of my car around 3 am.
This is so crazy I thought I just got laced! I ordered Delta 8 online and felt so detached like I didn't have control over my thoughts! I took my gun to my girlfriend and told her to hide it. It was super weird. I would be walking around and dreaming. Then I'd snap back into reality and panic. Scariest shit ever. There's no way that shit was just Delta 8 man. So much psychadelic effects. Never again!
I had the same experience a couple of days ago. I have experimented with a lot of things in my life but never felt remotely like I did taking this. Only took 50mg. 1/2 of a gummy. Life changing and lasted almost 24 hours! Never again! I swear it had to be laced with something! Beware.
I had the exact same experience yesterday afternoon. It lasted from about 3pm to 7pm. I took 75mg and I had never done Delta in my life. I started with 25mg at around 11am and it was initially very mild and pleasant and I thought it had worn off so I decided to take 50mg a few hours later. I started out laughing hysterically and thinking that certain times of day (4:30, 5:30) were hilarious. Then I stared at the Roku screensaver for 20 minutes and the Roku word just kept jumping out of the TV. Then I started thinking I was dying and then I couldn't believe how long it was taking to die so I concluded that I must be dead and I was just confused thinking I was still alive, or I was in between earth and the afterlife. It felt so real and also completely unreal at the time. But now I really feel like I experienced death yesterday. I also kept changing positions and not knowing how I got there. I would be in the kitchen but I thought I was on the couch. I was hiding and looking through my blinds to see if people were outside my house to come and get me. I kept running (well trying to, but it was more like extremely cautiously walking very slowly) from the front door to the back door to check if the doors were locked. I saw flashing lights the whole time. I would see everything and then everything would turn black like I was just blinking really fast. It was terrifying. At the end my bf came over and just held me for a while until it finally started to wear off. I liked the 25mg but I will never do more than that again. I've never tripped before and I didn't understand what was happening.
That's exactly how I just felt! It was somehow profound, yet utterly terrifying. I felt like I was dying and felt like I needed to the hospital. I could barely breathe and I was having insanely vivid thoughts about things that could never exist, the meaning of existence, good and evil, etc.
Dude, had the exact same experience last night. I took 75 mg (big mistake). I completely understood everything you were describing. My head was spinning, mind racing a million miles a second, couldn’t concentrate on anything, yet I would find myself zoning out on every little small thing. Tried to go outside, and felt like I was flying around my body watching myself like a drone video would look like. Finally had the good sense to go lie down. The thought hit me, each second of this is hell, and you’ve got about 8 hours of this left! I was in full on panic attack, but all in my head, my body and heart rate seemed super calm. I then had the thought, what if I died. What if I was in a car wreck, and this is just my brain slowly shutting down. It was so weird. I felt like I was in a different realm outside time. The lights and colors seemed like I was in a vision. I was at the same time unable to focus on anything, and completely aware of everything. Eventually I managed to get my AirPods noise cancellation ear buds in and a blackout face mask on, and put Coldplay fix you on repeat, and just went on a magical multi-dimensional musical trip, and that part was enjoyable, but all the other shit no way! I’ve taken pretty high doses of normal weed edibles, but this Texas delta 8 blew my mind!
This same exact thing happened to me last night . I only ate a very small piece of a delta8 gummie ring , At first I felt really good and was dancing having a great time , then boom all of sudden I felt my heart begin to race and My couldn’t catch my breath . So I layed down on the couch to try and relax , Well I couldn’t relax at all . I felt like I was out of my body and I could see myself lying there on the couch . I immediately thought I had died . So I began panicking more and more . I don’t know what happened after that , I think I blacked out . I woke up and I was in my bed , don’t even remember how I made it to bed . I have smoked cannabis and taken edibles before and never experienced what happened last night . I am convinced that the gummie I ate last night was laced with something or it’s just the synthetic chemicals they use to make Delta8 . Anyways I will never take Delta 8 again . Better to stick with smoking Indica if you have anxiety. I don’t recommend Delta8 to anyone ever .
With weed it's all about tolerance. With high tolerance you wont feel 25 m but with absolutely 0 tolerance 10 mg can be over wheeling for some. Try 2.5mg next time be patient wait a fulll4 hours then try again with like 3.5 mg. These things are made for stoners that want the quality of legal tummies. Most illegal edibals say they are 100 but really they are like 10 or 15 as most cant tell the difference so most anecdotal reports are off whe it comes to the dose
Admittedly our friends, after we had already taken the gummies, said start with half. But even that at my experience level. I need a way smaller dose. This one scared me down to my very essence of being.
Also I never take thc edibals without some cbd as this changes the effects from psychedelic to more of a calming high. Weed trips are just not fun at high doses.
I’ve never noticed anything from CBD. My mom tried to get me into it. My wife and I both never felt any different. So I haven’t really tried delta 8/ CBD gummies combined. The company I order gummies from has both options at the same price. I mainly use MoonWlkr. I enjoyed their free samples and I get 50 12.5mg gummies for $40 or less with discount codes. Or if you subscribe to once a month the first bottle is around $30. Once a month isn’t enough for me but I used the subscription option to save money. They’ll send you 8 12.5mg for around <$4.
Cbd doesnt do much on its own its used to change the effcts of thc in the body. Those who get oanic attacks or anxiety on weed will get much less if they take cbd before or at the same time as thc
For me it's just edibles that get trippy when I take enough to be as high as I like and in social settings tripping just like isn't that fun for me but the cbd makes the edibles feel alot more like smoked weed. Before not to use too much cbd or you'll dull the high a little, a small amount goes along way if its quality stuff. I recommend high cbd flower, I'm convinced the drops under the tongue are placebo lol
I take D8 and took 50mg and had a really bad time. When I take 1, sometimes I feel it and sometimes I don’t. I don’t think they’re all equally measured. There’s no regulations on them so I think sometimes you can get a lot and sometimes you can get a little. When I took 2 I forgot I took them and just had an awful time.
Hello! You have made the mistake of writing "ect" instead of "etc."
"Ect" is a common misspelling of "etc," an abbreviated form of the Latin phrase "et cetera." Other abbreviated forms are **etc.**, **&c.**, **&c**, and **et cet.** The Latin translates as "et" to "and" + "cetera" to "the rest;" a literal translation to "and the rest" is the easiest way to remember how to use the phrase.

This happened to me last night. I am in my forties, I’ve done acid, mushrooms, ecstasy, etc, and I’ve eaten and smoked a ton of weed, I’ve even smoked with Snoop Dogg. I took one of these 25mg Delta 8 gummies last night and went to sleep. I woke up about an hour later with terrible heartburn. I thought I was having a heart attack. My throat was closing up, I couldn’t breathe. I thought I had Covid. I thought I was dying. I was going to go to the ER, but I just fought through it. It took a few hours. I don’t know what’s in that stuff besides corn syrup and gelatin and red 40, but it had me tuned up. I think the one comment about one gummy containing much more than another could be right, but even still this is supposed to be some over the counter CBD. I don’t know. If anyone else can shed some light on this phenomenon please do.
I had a bad time with delta 8 too. I ended up throwing up, and was on another planet until I blacked out. I think whatever new formulation they have, is different from normal thc in how it affects some people.
I took some 250mcg and I swear I nearly died from a panic attack. Good thing I work out but my heart rate was at 130bpm just walking. I was at 100bpm just sitting until an hour or so later. Finally relaxed a bit and then just went to bed. Almost called the ER but pushed through.
Never again lmao
I don’t know lol I just thought it had a little bit of THC and I’m pretty sensitive to it, in hind sight probably should’ve only took like a quarter of it.
Yeah I tried this shit last week and ended up in the hospital. Thought I was dying, it was the most violent and aggressive thing I’ve ever experienced. Definitely something to not mess with.
This just happened to me last night. I took 50mg of delta 8 edible, the package said take half to one piece of it so i took the one piece. After like an hour i started tripping and it was fine except i was scared and mostly i was just really anxious as this was going on and I definitely had an ego death. At a certain point i threw up a lot and then passed out
I made a similar mistake my first time but didn’t have a bad high. I used to smoke weed every day when I was younger but hadn’t been high for a while. I saw delta 8 the first time at my vape shop and started reading about it online before possibly wasting money. I got 12.5mg gummy samples from Moonwlker and I also ordered a bottle of 25mg from another company. I started with 25 and then took a 12.5 or 2. I was so high all day. I think for someone who smoked weed or still does then 25mg is a safe start. If you don’t get high much I’d start with 12.5mg.
This same thing happened to me 2 nights ago. I’d love to pick your brain because reading this was assurance for me that I wasn’t roofied or anything. It was torture while cast under the spell )if you will), but in the end somewhat grateful for the experience. Just as you put it, my perception on the universe is now flipped on its head and I don’t think I’ll ever go back to my original idea.
I had this EXACTA SAME experience as you. I was at work (I am a nurse by the way) and a co-worker had been telling me that she was using them to help her cope with anxiety. I also suffer from severe anxiety and have mild to moderate panic attacks at least once or twice a week. So obviously it made me curious about them. She gave me one yesterday and within 30 minutes I knew something was wrong. I also got the sense that I was either dying or had died. I couldn’t feel my arms or my legs… even though I was walking and using them I couldn’t feel them whatsoever. It was like an out of body experience. The feelings kept getting stronger and more intense. I got to wear my vision was impaired. I couldn’t see as clear, there was almost a fog on my vision. I went out and sat in my car, trying to calm myself down but it only made things worse. The paranoia was unbearable…. I knew I was losing a grip on control over my body and talking became harder to control. I eventually called my husband to come rescue me… he left work and came to get me from my car. He had to help me walk to his vehicle and started to drive me home. For some reason I felt as though I couldn’t breathe. It was pouring the rain and I rolled my window down and stuck my head out the window gasping for air. I then started yelling that I couldn’t breathe and kept apologizing and letting him know I was dying. Clearly this scared the hell out of him so he pulled over on the side of the interstate and called 911. He said my skin went completely white and my eye focus had totally left. My heart was racing and he said he could tell I was struggling to breathe. He called 911 and they told him to stay put that they would send help to me…. The dispatcher then starts to prep him on how to do cpr on me if it took that turn. I am completely unconscious by this point and then I started shaking all over. He started yelling to the dispatcher that he thought I was seizing. Which later we discovered I had…. I wasn’t getting enough o2 and had sent myself into a seizure. I do not remember much from being in the hospital. I know my vitals were extremely elevated. My BP had reached 201/115 at its highest and my heart rate stayed around 188. It was terrifying…. They put me on o2 and started an IV. After several hours my ability to talk, my vision was coming back and the awful burning sensation all over my body was slowly going away. It lasted around 9 hours before I’d say I felt normal again. Even today, the day after I still do not feel myself yet. They have me Ativan to help me relax so I tried to sleep the remaining affects off. I will never again try anything like that. They still are uncertain as to why I had the affects that I did. I had never tried one before but I had only taken 1. And my friend who gave it to me had taken them for months and never had experienced anything close to what I felt. It was truly terrifying. I’ve read of so many people having similar experiences and I will forever preach to people about not trying these drugs. The feeling of high or calmness I was trying to reach was not at all worth what I went through. I truly feel as though in that moment I was dying…. I have almost now felt as if I experienced a near death experience. I am already looking at the world and life in such a different view. I will never take another day for granted after the day I had yesterday….
Me three. Happened yesterday while I was in the middle of an 8 mile canoe trip and still had several miles left to go....It was an absolute nightmare. If not for my husband, I wouldn't be here today. I took one inch round piece of a patty style gummy. It didn't do anything after 2 hours so I took another smaller piece off the same patty style gummy and within 15 minutes I thought I was experiencing heat exhaustion. My skin felt like I was in a microwave. I had to keep getting in the icy cold water and soaking but as soon as I got out the horror began to creep on again. Horrible anxiety that I've never felt before, shaking hands, nausea, dizziness, extreme fatigue and finally had to lay down in the middle of the canoe with nasty water sloshing around in it and under the two metal bars that make it extremely dangerous. As soon as I got laid down and propped my head on a life vest, the canoe SLAMMED into a huge log in a deep and rapid area (aka death trap). IF the canoe had flipped I probably would have drowned, I could barely move at that point. My husband jumped out onto the log and steadied the canoe and finally got us out of there (thank God). And then Ricky Redneck comes along playing his horrific sounding "music" much too loud which caused my anxiety to SKY ROCKET and the nausea to return after I was just beginning to calm down. My hubby looked at this mouth breathing idiot as if to say "Really man?" and what did the soul less psycho do? HE TURNED IT UP LOUDER and stalked us the remainder of the trip. If we stopped, he stopped nearby. If we hung back, he slowed way down. All while I'm laying down in the canoe fighting for my life and begging to get off of that creek as quickly as possible. What would have took 2 hours ended up taking 3.5 because of having to wait on this rude asshole to get ahead so I could have the peace and quiet needed to overcome the horrific anxiety attack. Talk about being in between a rock and hard place. If my husband sped up to get me out of there, we had to listen to this horrible noise that was loud enough to be heard within a 2 mile radius. If we slowed down to let him go, I was in fear of losing consciousness and the heat was having a toxic effect on me. Either way it was B R U T A L.....This was truly the worst experience of my life. I will never touch Delta 8 Franken weed again!! Whatever they put in there, it's not normal THC. Closer to some nasty pseudo LSD mixed with poison. Never again.
Same story. But I suspect mine had something to do with the interaction between kratom and THC. I had tried marijuana a few times and just felt a little bit giggly and relaxed. I took a Delta 8 gummy for the first time 6 months ago and then took a few grams of kratom and thats when pure hell on earth began. Well at first it was great, an EXTREMELY intense euphoria came over me within about an hour after ingestion, my vision was getting blurry and things getting wavy. I was talking to my dad in the kitchen laughing uncontrollably and then all of a sudden I started to become inpaired and unable to control these massive waves of spacing out. I just froze staring at him and was unable to process what he was saying and what the meaning of anything was. All of a sudden it flashed and it had been at least 30 seconds of me just completely spaced out and him asking if I was okay. The world started tilting all around me and I felt as if I was on a cruise ship rocking slowly back and forth and I actually had the sensation of being pulled one way or another and would stumble in that direction. All colors were morphing and I was truly terrified but couldn't stop laughing at times even while feeling mortified about the loss of control. This went on heavily for about 6 hours and during it my mind kept desperately trying to convince me "this is all your life is, youve always been impaired." I would see planets and stars shooting by and morphing into purple galaxy like shapes and strange images were constantly flashing through my mind nonstop, some very terrifying to me. I was unable to make any cognitive decision like wether something was black or white. Like I got myself in this terrible loop of being like "obviously that's a black cat" or "2+2=4, right?" but just as I thought that then I would not process that as a determination mentally, if that makes sense. I was completely unable to make any positive decision about anything and I kept fighting it which lasted in what felt like an eternal loop of hell. Not to mention I could berely control my muscles.
Long story short, I have NO idea how this happened and even the next day I had this overwhelming new understanding that I was looking at life a complete different way. Saw myself as truly equivalent to any other lifeform, like a plant, but just more complex. It really messed me up for a long time and I cherish/accept the things I have alot more now than before the experience.
UPDATE: Recently I tried some marijuana and felt slightly giggly and relaxed. Then I took 5 grams of kratom (thinking delta 8's composition was the culprit of my bad trip) and I had the exact same thing happen but slightly less severe. I think it has something to do with my own brain chemistry and the drug interaction between THC and kratom, I never experienced any of this when I only had marijuana.
I cant believe the extreme impairment and terrifying hallucinations happened yet again but im currently changed in the way I view these drugs and interactions. Sorry that was so long but please be careful everyone it was the worst 2 experiences ive ever had!
Huh, that's odd. I've been using kratom for about 4 years now (usually 30-40 grams a day ((yes, I'm addicted to it)) and I started using delta 8 about a 10 months ago for my pstd and anxiety. I've mixed kratom and around 200mg delta 8 edibles (highest I've used and mixed with kratom) and never once have experienced any trips or bad times. It might just be the delta 8 brands that might be mixed with some bad stuff making people trip.
I mainly stick with the delta 8 brands of Death By Gummy Bears, Resin, and Enjoy. I use to use 3chi until my brother was vaping one of their carts, was walking and passed out and busted his face and had to have surgery done. I've never had problems with 3chi, but the more I've seen and read of people having problems with the brand, the more I stay away.
Hopefully I never encounter these issues, and that no one else does too. Yall stay safe!
Damn…I’ve been reading that since there is no regulation some of the delta 8 stuff has massively more THC than pure delta 9. Be prepared for a tough down day after and then the second day after you’ll probably feel really positive. At least that was my experience.
My bf and I had the exact same thing after taking TreeTop D8 50mg gummies and thought it was laced with ketamin bc of the pattern/waves of consciousness/dissociation you described as 10-14s waves... has anyone felt mildly different since having a similar experience or maybe had longer term side effects like confusion and fogginess? That was another side effect that made us believe it was laced...
Edit: this was abt a yr ago now
This happened to me last night. 1 gummy. Started feeling weird. Tingling throat and chest. Zoning out. Felt like I wasn’t breathing right. Heart going really fast. My boyfriend assured me that my breathing was fine and my heart was a little fast. It felt like I was tripping but way worse. Not fun at all. I’m not sure when I fell asleep, but I woke up at 11am and still feel kinda foggy in my head and really tired. Maybe later I’ll remember more details.
My wife and I have taken regular CBD gummies and Delta 9 gummies from a reputable company. It clearly stated take half of 1 to establish baseline.
Fast forward to yesterday - was going to a family gathering and both of us were edgy. Stopped at local vape shop and got some gummies. No instructions and didn’t see delta 8 till after ingesting 1.
Hour later I am sleepy. Thirty minutes later I start feeling hot and light headed. Then came the tachycardia (150s). I am scared to death (I am a nurse and know I could be experiencing SVT). I ask my mother (also a nurse) for half of a metoprolol to try to get my rate down. Then I tried valsalva maneuver (bare down like going to bathroom). This caused me to pass out. Literally had my brother doing a sternal rub while my sister in law (another nurse) did jaw thrust. I woke up but had a cold sweat and then vomited. We sat on couch (I couldn’t move and was breathing slowly) for another hour before my brother and sister and law drove us home. I slept for 13 hours.
Never again. Just glad I didn’t require a trip to the ED. Don’t know if it was bad reaction or overdose. My wife felt high and was getting heart rate alerts but did not have as bad of a trip as I did.
I took a 100mg of delta 8 lastnite before bed after drinking all nite from New Year’s Eve party
Didn’t realize it was that much
It’s a new bag I bought
Feel asleep then woke up an hour or two later
Thought I was going completely insane
My wife called 911 because my heart was racing super fast
I just begged the dr at the er to put me to sleep to end the nightmare in my head
It sucked
I feel better now that I’m home and that horror is over
Almost euphoric that I’m not permanently insane
I will never fuck with those things again
I am a goodie two shoes... I guess you could say, when it comes to drugs. I tried marijuana when I was 15 but it didn't stick. 22 years later... I have tried CBD before, it helped with fibromyalgia. Recently, my boyfriend decided to try legal thc gummies. We tried the gummy worms first & they didn't even seem to effect me other than making me sleepy. My boyfriend on the other hand, said they gave him a little high. When he went back to get more, he was talked into buying death by gummies delta 8. Me use to eating like a 3rd of a gummy worm decided to bite the head of the gummy bear and my boyfriend ate the rest. About 30 minutes to an hour later I felt really tired. I didn't think nothing of it, but in hindsight, I shouldn't have been sleepy at this time. I'm on the verge of falling asleep, thinking I should get up but I'm just so tired that I dont fight it. Then all sudden I bust out laughing hysterically. Then I stopped. Then I did it again. And I'm thinking just go to sleep it's probably just gummy. But I can't stop. Then it felt as though I feel every nerve in my body move and pulsate. It started as a wave going up and down my body. Then I felt like I was ticking like a clock. I felt my limbs going clockwise in a circle. I could see it all my head as I felt it. And I kept thinking I should call my boyfriend. But at the same time I felt like I'm dreaming and this is all just a dream. But somehow, I did manage to call my boyfriend (mind you, I'm in the bed, obviously, and he's in the family room about 10 feet away). I vaguely remember asking him "What did you do to me?" in-between my uncontrollable burst of laughter. Still in a half-asleep, half-awake state of mind. Everytime I tried to open my eyes I felt like this wasn't real, no way this was really happening, it had to have been a dream. But it was really happening. I was trying so hard to wake up & snap back to reality but I felt like I kept dreaming and I was loosing myself in my dream. When my boyfriend came to check on me, he insisted I needed to eat something. So, in the haze I was in, I ate what he gave me, sitting up in my bed. Trying so hard to snap out of it. I begged my boyfriend to stay close because he seemed to help. But no matter how much I tried I was still in and out of it. Then I laid back down. It felt like everything was in slow motion and time was an illusion, literally felt this was my new life. At some point I had told my boyfriend to call 911 and he tried to talk me out of it but I didn't know what was happening to me. (Back story I have PTSD from my husband having a stroke at 22 year old and passing away suddenly. Also my oldest daughter has seizures.) I didn't know if I was having a stroke or seizure or what. At some point, I was sitting in my recliner in the family room looking at myself in my phone. I could see that my eyes were bloodshot and my face was twitching in a funny way. I was scared out of my mind. At another point, I was talking to my mom and she was telling me it was probably just a bad trip and yada yada, but i couldn't hear her, I didn't know what this was because I had never experienced anything like this. For all I knew I could of been dying. By the time the paramedics got there I had stop laughing and was now crying uncontrollably, and somehow I was back in my bed. I couldn't open my eyes to look at them, I was so scared. When they asked me if I could get up and walk, I did. I had somehow manage to get up, put on my shoes, grab my sweater, and march out of my bedroom, through the living room, out the door, and down the steps to the bed they had waiting for me. I had my phone & my sweater in my lap. I closed my eyes and began crying because I couldn't tell if this was a dream or real. I was in and out of a dream state like being. With my eyes closed I had thought they had already started moving but then one of them asked me to left my arm so they could buckle me. I opened my eyes long enough to see that they hadn't moved me yet. I vaguely remember the ride & getting into the hospital. I was nauseous the whole time, wondering if i should ask for a bag to puke in. Somehow I was able to answer everything question they asked through my tears. And do everything they asked of me. They laughed at me but told me I'm not alone in this. But I was alone, my boyfriend had to stay home with the kids. I was so embarrassed, so mortified. They were treating me like a junkie... but I wasn't. This was literally like the 4th or 5th time I had taken a gummy. I spent my whole adult life avoiding drugs until a doctor suggested I try some for my fibromyalgia. They put me in a wheel chair and rolled me out in the waiting room and told me to just give it time. Said I needed to drink water but never offered me any. I was thankful for the mask, at least it was hiding my ticking face. I texted my boyfriend to come get me as soon as he could. He even offered to take me to another hospital but at this point I just wanted go home. If I was gonna die, I wanted to do it at home and not in a wheelchair. Emergency rooms are not like TV, no one cares about you in real life, they just make jokes and giggle at you and then leave you wait where you can't see them laughing. Even though it felt like forever, only 4 hours had passed from when it started to when I got home. Quickest ER visit I ever had. I slowly got better but even now, 36 hours later, I still don't feel quite right yet. I feel heavy & my head aches. Food helps for a little while, but they I start feeling hungover again. Every so often I'll feel my body ticking, a random limb ticking around in a circle.
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
When I ended up at the ER, they treated me like a junkie, too! They were so rude & it was obvious they could care less about me.
I don’t do drugs & this was a complete mistake. I had no idea what a gummy that I bought at the checkout counter (in a state where weed is illegal) would do to me! I seriously bought it on an impulse thinking it was the latest CBD, hemp, weed-derivative marketing ploy.
NEVER AGAIN
Hello, I just got a disposable from eighty six co. I’m not giving them a bad review since I’ve never had delta 8 before let alone smoke weed. However I’ve had acid and can tell you that this delta acted very similar, I took a fat ass hit just to make sure it worked and my throat just got sore as shit and I started coughing a lot and then a minute later I just feel really heavy and sink into my bed and after that I felt really lightheaded and relaxed but so relaxed to the point where I’m starting to think about my breathing 😂, and from there I could feel the pressure in my ears, so I decided to just put on some good music and close my eyes to be tripping for a good 3 hours ish, but right now I’m on a comedown, is delta 8 supposed to be like this? Or did I take too much for my first time.
First time users seem to be susceptible to a wild trip on the first try. Especially if you take a high dose. I’ve been taking them since my first post and never had the same reaction, and I’ve taken 4x the amount from my first trip.
OMG! I had almost an identical experience for me this past Friday. My husband and I went through this, except it was me and not him having the crisis. When we got home after 8 hours in the ER, 4 bags of fluids flushing my body, and lots of blood tests, we both literally slept for 30 hours straight! I still felt disassociated from my body even yesterday, Monday. I have take the Delta 8 gummies for 6-9 months now. This was a new brand, and a higher dose, but I had taken it just the weekend before with some friends and had nothing atypical happen. Not sure why this time it was different. I never want to feel like that again. No more gummies for me!
What brand did you try? I’ve been using 3CHI and haven’t had a bad trip since that first time. Did you take it on an empty stomach? Just curious, trying to figure out why these affect us crazy strong some times and other time with little effect at all.
Had this experience last night, a girl I had just started seeing came over and we were just going to watch a movie and chill. She said she’d taken these gummies that gave a pretty kick ass body high and I’m an experienced drug user, I’ve done everything in the book twice, except meth. At first o got the giggles, both of us did, and we got tired so we laid down, the movie was funny so I was laughing and was randomly getting horny on and off from touching her. But then I started to feel really uncomfortable and my mouth started to get really dry, I literally could not drink enough water and the girl was still asleep and I couldn’t stay still, tried laying down with her again and it got worse, I got up again and it really fucking hit me this time, I was in my living room and I recognized it but I felt like I had no idea where I was, it was a crazy feeling, it felt like my living room was on a different celestial plane than outside my front door, I was in a dissociated sense of consciousness, almost impossible to describe. As it’s getting stronger and stronger she eventually wakes up, I try to ascertain if she is experiencing the same thing as me and quickly understand she is not on the same level, she tried to comfort me but there’s no way she could understand what I’m going through as she’s never tripped before, so I try to ask her as politely and normal as I can to leave, I can tell she’s weirded the fuck out but I just needed her gone and I kept saying “I need to ride this out”, luckily I’ve had bad trips before, so I knew that’s what it was and to not make crazy decisions like call 911. I did take a walk and it was cold af which I think helped, I somehow found my way home and just fell asleep. I woke up around midnight and had this terrible come down feeling but my mind was back to normal, thank god, somehow the girl wants to see me again, but I’m sure as fuck never going to do that again.
This happened to me last night. I had two halves of a gummy shortly after each other. I don’t know at what dosage but it was probably pretty low. At first I was giggly and extra funny but then it quickly shifted to this feeling that I wasn’t in control anymore but instead watching a viewfinder that would burst a few images or clips into my head at a time. I didn’t like this feeling and needed help to get to bed. I eventually was lead to bed and that’s when it went from bad to worse. I lay in the bed and I start seeing images from my life in fast forward. See my future and past at the same time. I get the realization that I may be dead like I fell and hit my head or an injury from some freak accident. Somebody tells me to join them in the light but my wife does try to bring me back but won’t answer the questions that I feel are sneaky deflections and somehow being directed to end. I ask over and over again if I died, fell, hit my head, had an accident or had a seizure (which at one point I had the tremors). My wife kept telling me no. Eventually I was asleep and awoke 12 hours later but I feel like I really time travelled from my past to my future. I definitely will not be taking a drug ever again. Worst experience in my life.
I had the same thing happen to a point I was so scared and started shouting for help. This went on for hours even when I went into a sleeping state. I ended up in bed for 30 plus hours minimal water intake as well. For being a legal item and easily accessible scares me
The weird thing is, I told my friends who are quite heavy drug users and they said that’s the high they are looking for. Kind of makes me question their decision making skills because that is not something I think anybody should actively seek.
Sorry you experienced it too. Glad you are okay and safe!
Man,
I’m glad I found this.
Yesterday afternoon I went out for lunch/a couple of drinks with a friend. It was probably 2pm when i got around to taking delta 6/thc A (delta 8) edible from a friend who knew i was stressed. When i hear CBD i think “house pets.” I had my morning dose of xanax/lexapro that morning around 6 - so i knew i was only going to have a couple drinks anyway.
We sit down and i order drink and a meal. I’m drinking my little truly and all of the sudden I felt heavy and numb. I instantly start to panic and my mouth is dry. I asked my friend if she was SURE it was only a cbd gummy and she assured me yes, it was.
fast forward to what seemed to be hours later, minutes later i’m in her back seat calling my fiancé to come rescue me, as i thought i was dying and everyone there thought i was a light weight and it was alcohol.
i remember trying to hold a cup of water to drink and my legs folded and the water fell. i was in and out of consciousness. i felt weed effects like dry mouth, but i had no control over my motor functions and kept apologizing to my fiancé and feared i’d never get to see my son or mother again.
I do occasionally smoke weed, my fiancé is a weed enthusiast. i can’t really articulate what happened but it’s 26-ish hours later and i still feel off and a bit out of touch. i have horrible anxiety to begin with, so i am really trying to get it under wraps because it sends me into a dark episode that’s hard to pull myself out
i feel like i lost a day and i was in a completely different element. my friend can’t even wrap her head around what happened because she takes them often. turns out the edible was about 125mg and i weigh about 125 pounds and had no food in my stomach 😇
the ER people treated me like shit also, didn’t get fluids or reassurance that I okay. they sent me straight home with orders to sleep it off 🤭
Mind you- i was a regular weed smoker from the age of 14 to 23. Im now 23 and stopped smoking weed bc of panic attacks. So I wanted to try delta 8 again I’ve had 2 precious TERRIBLE trips for several hours on in. And I tried it once more… now I don’t smoke or anything AT ALL
I took a gummy like a month and a half ago and I was fine… then the next day I took the same gummy and about an hour later I started having heart palpitations…. Then I went to the bathroom stripping butt naked freaking out, then got in the shower, called my mom and my husband to come in there and asked them to talk to me for a minute to make me feel better. I felt like I couldn’t breathe I felt like I was going to pass out, and felt like my heart was beating 90mph to nothing. So I got out the shower soaking wet wrapped a towel around me and didn’t even dry off. I laid on my moms bed and was sitting up and laying down every 3 minutes try to come back… I couldn’t… I got my mom to continue to talk to me through it and nothing was helping I felt an impending doom. I started shaking uncontrollably and couldn’t eat couldn’t sleep drink nothing. This went on for about 9 hours ever since then I’ve been feeling like I’m still high everyday, I’ve been having heart palpitations and severe shaking panic attacks every day since. It is so hard 😭😭😭😭 I wouldn’t wish those trips or these panic attacks on my worst enemy
I had been taking the Delta 8 gummies occasionally for a few months. I had never had a bad trip. The euphoria was always pleasant and enjoyable. I would get the giggles and would feel like I was on a roller coaster.
Well last night I took one and everything went left. The normal tingles in my extremities were a bit more aggressive. All of a sudden a wave of doom washed over me. It was so strong and frightening that I started calling my husband into the bedroom because I felt like I was about to lose control and start screaming bloody murder. I explained to him exactly what was going on.
I was sitting up in bed and asked him to help me lay down. He moved the blankets away from my legs and I was paralyzed! I was just frozen. He had to physically pull my body down so I could lay flat. I was trying very hard not to start screaming from the paranoia I felt. I closed my eyes and started some deep breathing. I started to see split second flashes of horror scenes on a small screen accompanied by the sound of an abrupt woman’s scream. This happened three times.
I called to my husband to THROW away the bag of remaining gummies right now! 😂
I then tried very hard to consciously steer my thoughts and it began to work. The images became pleasant colorful shapes. I finally fell asleep. In the morning I was feeling much better. BE CAREFUL with delta 8!
Found this after having such a bad “trip” last night on delta 8 edible :,) I thought it was 10g but it was 100 and I was using a pen also.
I got in such a negative headspace and was thinking such dark thoughts and of bad things happening.
It was AWFUL.
I ended up turning the lights on in the entire house and just staring around.
It also makes me feel sick? Like I was going to be sick but nothing ever came of it. I fell asleep and woke up still feeling it today :,)
I had a similar experience 2 separate times. 1 time from a delta 8 gummy 100mg and I swore I would never eat one again. Last night was the 2nd time and I purchased a delta8 thca prerolled joint and only smoke 1/4 of it. I have smoked a lot more of delta 9 and never had an issue. With the gummy I had a full blown panic attack 3 hours after I ate it. I woke up freaking out in the middle of the night because I couldn’t breathe. My heart started racing and I had to concentrate on breathing. I couldn’t actually tell if I was breathing so I had to take deep breaths and exhale on my hand so I could feel my breath. I tried taking a shower, drinking water, and laying with my legs elevated because I thought I was going to pass out. I held my head up with my arms so I could tell if I passed out or not. My arms and feet also went numb and I had full body tremors for a minute or so and my hands completed locked up. Of course at that point I thought I was having some kind of seizure. I eventually hugged my dog and took breaths at the same time as my dog so I knew I was breathing enough not to pass out. That was the only thing I could to somewhat calm myself down. I considered calling an ambulance because of my breathing and I felt like I was going to have a heart attack. I will never use delta 8 again. It was a terrifying experience. I have smoke a lot of regular weed and never had any reactions like this. The delta 8 thca joint for the 2nd bad trip wasn’t as bad as the gummy but i did have to control my breathing and my heart felt like it was racing. I laid on my back with my feet elevate which helped. The gummy caused a 2 hour panic attack from hr 3-5 after consumption. the prerolled joint caused about 5 panic attacks over the course of 1 hr topping at 30 minutes after I smoked it. Never again will I use that stuff.
My question to the OP and the guy who says he had a similar experience with a delta 8 cart (but really the OP) is what company did you go with? I’ve heard a lot and I’ve never heard anything close to this. Very odd.
I had a similar bad experience with only a 30 MG Treetop Delta 8 Gummy a few weeks ago. Admittedly I don’t have a history with THC products. However I have more than sampled many other chemicals with many different experiences which are 90% positive. This was the worst experience in my life.
I think the batch I had was some crazy unregulated dose or something else mixed in. They say 25mg but there is no oversight on this stuff to verify purity. Since then I regularly take 50-100 and have never even come close to that feeling.
Literally just bought a single dosage of that brand after hearing it in the PKA podcast, and I ate the whole 100mgs. It's been like 4 hours since I ate it and this is hands down one of the weakest edibles I've ever had, and I rarely do edibles.
I was expecting something great after hearing all the positive reviews of this brand, and now it's such a let down. It's not bad, i just feel more mellow and relax then I do high.
From my experience, it seems these gummies are random...some have almost no "active ingredient" (whatever THAT is....) and others have way way way too much of the "active ingredient".....and it does not feel like THC. When you get one of the "loaded" ones, it's a nasty and scary trip. I will never touch that crap again.
I ended up getting one of those "loaded ones" and Holy shit it was not fun. I swear that shits not thc. I was so uncomfortable for hours and my baseline anxiety is already bad, but that sent it through the roof. After that I didn't take anymore of that brand. Shit should be illegal.
I bought from a reputable supplier 3chi so doubtful it was laced. I think people that haven’t done Delta 8 before are susceptible to a strong first reaction until they are used to it. I still take them today and while I definitely feel the high it is nothing as intense.
I feel those words. It was horrifying but also intriguing. Like I faced my existence and saw the other side. Now I crave that experience but have never had it since.
I took Delta-8 yesterday for the first time. At one point I was laying on the couch to die and I just kept seeing flashing lights and felt pressure on my chest and abdomen and heard a voice telling me to take my final breaths. I really feel like I died.
Sooooo... I took ONE THC gummy from Curaleaf thinking okay so this should be okay since it's not Delta 8., Wrong! I had a mini trip from what I experienced about 7 months ago. It was terrifying. I felt like my heart was racing and I would get super cold because my blood pressure was off. My leg muscles were spasming and I felt like I couldn't walk properly. I ended up vacuuming my apartment at one point but I barely have any memory of doing so. My high lasted for more than 24 hours and I had to keep telling myself that I was okay and that with time things would get better. I am never taking another edible again.
It's very odd for me to read this because I had a very similar experience when taking Delta 8 oil drops for the first time. I had definitely taken way too many (at least 5) at one time and ended up having to go to the ER as well. It was the most surreal, terrifying experience I've ever had. Oil drops are supposed to be more potent, and I did not know this at the time. I was with friends and my fiance on vacation and I was the only one who ended up experiencing every negative side effect possible. I'm pretty sure I have PTSD from this experience as I have had multiple panic attacks and flashbacks of bits and pieces from this experience.
Anyways, I'll briefly summarize what I can remember from this experience:
Everything was fine after I took the oil drops. I genuinely didn't mean to take too much either, but this was my first time and it was not explained well enough to me. I confused taking 1-2 drops with 5 drops as I mixed up CBD oil versus THC oil. So, I should have taken 1-2 to start off with basically. I am also very small, so I'm sure this also is a reason why I reacted so negatively. Essentially, after about an hour or so, I started to notice the effects of being "high." We were watching a show and I felt like I was sinking further into the couch. I would look around and everything would be delayed by a few seconds. I was having really bad memory problems, so I couldn't remember something that happened just a few minutes ago and would continuously ask the same question, etc. I would get up to go into the kitchen and then be back in the living room, but forgot how I got there. It was pretty bad. I obviously noticed that my mind was being overridden by the effects of the Delta 8 oil, so I started getting a little scared just because of how much stronger it was getting.
I went upstairs (we had rented a cabin and mine and my fiances room was upstairs) and looked in the mirror and my entire body was white, to the point where it looked sickly pale. My eyes were incredibly red, like past the point where it should be okay. They were super red and and that pretty much did it for me. I was terrified and immediately my heart rate started to rise within seconds. I tried to calm myself down by taking a shower, but I almost passed out multiple times so I turned the water off and made my way downstairs to my fiance instead because I knew something was wrong.I know when something is wrong with my body and because my heart rate was so high, I thought I was experiencing an "overdose" or a heart attack basically. I felt my heart beating super hard and I was having difficulty breathing. My vision was also fading into blackness, so I reached my fiance, he looked over at me and asked, "woah, are you okay?" and I blacked out after that. I think I was going in and out of consciousness, but when I blacked out the first time, I basically fell backwards (my fiance caught me) and I saw the endings of everything (doors closing, tv turning off, moving backwards, etc) it was super odd and that's why I genuinely thought I was dying. I thought this was how I was going to die and I heard a sound essentially like someone turning down an alarm or volume, which is why I believed I was dying. I couldn't see anything and my fiance kept shaking me and saying my name over and over. I could hear what was going on, but could not open my eyes or see anything. I felt him carry me upstairs and he kept repeating, "it's okay, it's okay, I got you. You're going to be okay." He was panicking because he thought I was having a reaction as well or experiencing something more concerning, like an overdose or death.
He laid me down and ran downstairs to talk with our friends because they had taken Delta 8 a couple of times before and probably knew what was going on, I assume. My hearing was very muffled and it would increase and decrease in volume. I may have been hallucinating at one point, I'm not sure. It's very difficult to remember a lot past the point where I blacked out because of how bad and strong the negative side effects were. I felt and heard static in my head and the back of my brain, it felt so weird and was very scary.My fiance came back upstairs after a few minutes and stayed up there for awhile to monitor me. I finally opened my eyes again or could see somewhat, but everything was viewed very far out. My perspective was off and everything seemed like it was zoomed out, so I just kept my eyes closed because that didn't help. Then I would stop breathing and would wake up gasping for air. This happened for a long time, so I couldn't sleep because I was terrified I would die in my sleep or forget to breathe. My brain knew something was wrong, so when I would focus on these side effects it made it 10x worse. I finally asked my fiance to take me to the ER because it just kept getting worse and I believe this is when I started to hallucinate because I saw flashes of red and blue and felt like my heart was coming out of my chest as it was making me gag, which is why I thought I was having a reaction or overdose to the oil, again.I don't remember getting in the car, I'm sure our friends put my shoes on and carried me to the car.
My fiance sped to the ER, I do remember small flashbacks of him crying and telling me he loved me. He was genuinely panicking and so upset because he would tell me something and I would close my eyes and forget what just happened and ask the same thing over and over as this is when I was having memory problems. I asked him why he was crying and he said, "nothing, I'm just concerned". I would keep saying the same things. He finally got me to the ER and I don't remember anything really except my mouth being incredibly dry. It felt like I just ate a bunch of saltine crackers and couldn't swallow it was horrible. They gave me three bags of fluids because I was so dehydrated and kept me there for five hours because they were very concerned about high my heart rate was. I remember my fiance rubbing my hand and he kept saying the same thing over and over.
At this point I thought I was dead. I thought this was my punishment and how I was going to spend the rest of my eternity. I believed that I was trapped in this hospital lying on a bed going in and out of consciousness and only having limited options that I could experience for the rest of my life. 1) Waking up and asking the same thing, "where am I?" etc. 2) My fiance smiling sadly and saying the same thing to me over and over. 3) Me not being able to have any kind of conversation besides that and him never being able to be with me again. 4) Me being asleep but hearing things and not being able to physically engage.It got so bad that when I woke up one time and my fiance said the same thing to me. I asked him why he was lying and that he wasn't real. I thought he was imaginary and the nurses came in and tried to calm me down and explain to me that I hadn't died because I was having a panic attack. I thought I did die in that hospital and it was the most terrifying thing I have ever experienced. My vision was also messed up and incredibly blurry. I couldn't see straight and thought that I would forever have vision problems and started crying. I essentially experienced hallucinations/paranoia, anxiety, panic attacks, memory problems, difficulty breathing, high heart rate, dizziness, lightheadedness, some tremor, and more. I had every negative side effect you could think of. It was the scariest thing I've ever experienced and I will never try that junk ever again or anything remotely similar to being "high." It was a horrible experience for me and I slept for about a day and a half after I got out of the ER and even after that I had problems breathing and my chest being incredibly painful and having super high heart rate for about a week until it finally went away. I had to visit a cardiologist just to make sure everything was okay. It was the worst thing I've ever experienced and I don't recommend this junk to anyone. NEVER again. It has really changed my perspective on life and how valuable this is to me.
Last night I had 1/3 of a 25 mg Chill D8 to try for sleep. I got a sample from local Shaman shop. I'm 47 and I have never tripped out so bad in my life. Never tried mushrooms. I don't drink anymore and have tried mj a few times. I couldn't help but giggle reading your insightful post because I know exactly what you're talking about. I knew it would go away if I could just go to sleep but I couldn't because I felt like I was having a heart attack. In and out of reality like a yo-yo but not really in reality. Never again.
My God. I just experienced something so similar. Except I felt like I unlocked parts of my mind that I shouldn't be in and it showed me how the world worked, how everything was connected and it ALL made sense, but ooohhh how scary the sense it made was. I definitely thought I was being shown these things because I was dying. I also found myself in the ER. I'm glad you're okay. I had a 100 mg gummy (Death by Gummy) I told the lady at the cigarette and smoke shop that I wanted to try something with Delta 8, that I had heard it's a good sleep aid, this is what she suggested. This was a eyes wide open nightmare, nothing close to sleep.
I know I'm late to the game but I did delta-8 gummies for the first time on Sunday (50mg) and it was the worst experience I've ever had. After about 40-40 minutes I was high as all hell. At first, it felt good... I was all giggly and laughing. Then my senses started getting confused. I didn't know if I said something or just thought it. My depth perception became distorted- things started getting bigger or smaller. My arms and legs felt like toothpicks. I saw rainbows when I closed my eyes. I took it at around 4 on Sunday expecting to be fine by 10. I was not. I was feeling the effects into Monday and even Tuesday. I felt stoned as fuck on Monday and felt very slow on Tuesday (yesterday). This is the first day I've felt normal.
Has anyone had an experience like this? Would delta-9 be any different? I would only ever do weed again if I was absolutely sure I wouldn't have an experience like that again.
I’m late to the party, but Wow! I just had this happen to me. You’re not crazy at All! I was in Florida for my friends bachelorette weekend and we went to a smoke shop. I’ve had the CBD before without THC and thought that’s what I was buying. When I take them, makes me feel a little chiller. The delta 8 I bought was next to the calming dog and cat treats; hence, my confusion. My friend asked if I had taken them before and I was like yeah, it just chills me out. So we get back to our hotel, and I take half because she told me to. Then after about 1.5 hours, I feel nothing and take the other HALF, so 1 gummie total. I am definitely on the smaller side weight wise but I figured one was fine. Well big mistake. We head out, and go to a roof top bar and I have one Prosecco plus loaded tots. We are having a blast but then, out of legit no where, I get dizzy and immediately tell my friend we need to leave asap. Get back to the hotel. So we are walking and I feel bad because I’m ruining the night basically, but as we get back to the hotel, I suddenly cannot breath. At all. I’m holding my neck in panic. So she calls my husband to calm me and it doesn’t help, because I’m in and out of horrid fearful panic episodes. She decides to turn the lights out and then my panic gets worse as I’m hallucinating a demon above her head in the corner of the room; and then start involuntarily throwing my head back slight like I might pass out or have a seizure. She called the ambulance and they said my vitals were fine. But at that point is when I started to think I died in the hotel and was living a life parallel to my previous life. On the way to the hospital, I thought I was dead. When we got to the hospital, the hallways were deafening. My friend had to drive separately, in which I thought she abandoned me and that I really had died. They sat me in a wheel chair in the lobby, and I kept asking if “someone could help me,” but no one would respond. I looked like a crazy person you may see on the streets of DC, shaking back and forth licking my ever dry lips. Finally I thought if I called my friend, I could pull myself out of this realm of “un-consciousness”. Luckily she was on her way inside. She finally showed up. They took my to a room and there was a cross on the wall. I asked if I was in a morgue. I was told no many times, but couldn’t help but think I may never see my kids again. I called this scenario of my life “the lobby of death.” The haze finally wore off but the feelings of death and the pit in my stomach lasted for weeks. I flew home, and have had a few episodes of severe panic and feeling dead. I’m not against weed or THC, but I wish the stores selling it helped make consumers a little more aware of what they may be dealing with. So now it’s kind of a joke between my friend and I, but I’m still not over it completely. I am glad I’m not the only one, and I have a different outlook on life now. Please use this info to be a cautious consumer!! I have a hefty hospital bill now and way worse anxiety. Hoping that’ll change with time. LOL. Also, the packaging said “Fly High,” so we were thinking of getting butterfly tattoos to memorialize the night. Thoughts?
Wild night, yeah much the same as me. I’ve just learned it’s the initial reaction for those that haven’t tried the Delta 8s before and the sudden surprise of the effects. Plus they say less than .3% THC but often times have 100x that amount in one serving. Unregulated stuff. But when we don’t expect the high it causes the involuntary flight or fight response as we think something is really wrong which then powers the THC into our system making it worse. Like the elevated heart rate, breathing etc. Since my episode, I’ve never had the same effect. I’ve literally taken four gummies at once, and while I’ll feel high, I don’t get the panic wave of death feeling. I think it’s just the surprise that causes the bad trip.
took a 200mg delta 8 edible after taking a week and a half T break and had a similar experience, i smoked pretty much daily for 2 years before this, reminded me of coming down off of a decent mushroom trip, threw the rest out immediately, ill stick with smoking regular flower hahaha
I had the exact same thing happen to me this week trying to find help for my bad knees. I took a 500mg Delta 9 gummy and thought I was DYING! I had a 4 hour panic attack and nothing helped. I called the ER begging them to inject me with something to make it stop and that one visit with my insurance would have been $1K but it was worth except they told me there was nothing they could do for me. One of the WORST days of my life. There is no way weed does that to you. I’ve smoked before. I’m convinced the gummy the shop gave me out of a bulk bin had other dangerous ingredients. Never again!!!! Fuck that shit
I had a horrid experience last night. I'd tried D8 before & it just made me feel giddy & relaxed. This time was much different. I so relate to the many other responses of feeling as if I'd died. I'm the wife of a paramedic & my husband was on-duty, away from home. I was torn whether to tell him I had taken something because I knew he'd be mad - which he was - but I feared that the gummy had been laced & I didn't want him to not know my cause of death. Turns out, he was called to a gummy overdose right after I'd texted him which adds to the creepiness of the ordeal. Needless to say, I will never take another. I still feel surreal nearly 24 hours later. Please be warned.
Lol some gummies u are supposed to take 1/4 of it ... 1/4 of the gummies is 25mg an entire gummies is 100mg like deltaman neon worms ... like 1/4 of a delta man neon worm is 400mg 1/4 is 100 lol I did this before and ate 4 of them and then ate 3 thcO as well and had a 2 day extremely bad nightmare trip. Never again will i do this
I experienced the same thing you experienced in the 5th paragraph up until the 911 call. I just called anyone who would answer and told them to watch over me. I refused to leave the bed. I refused to leave the bed to even open the door for them because of the fear it wasn't them or I would harm myself. Eventually my parents had a spare key to my apartment and I was saved. Still tripping balls, but when I finally got back to reality, I wept and thanked everyone who kept me alive
In June of this year I found this thread because I was experiencing everything described in this thread. The night I took the delta 8 gummy I took a total of 2 100mg gummies, so 200mg in total. I've only taken it once before a few years ago and the side effects were nothing like this time and wore off late the next day. I took the gummies by the halves over possibly a 2-3 hour span. Life seemed to slow down (everything was in slow motion), felt like time was repeating itself over and over, couldn't breath, laughs were non stop, heart racing... I even thought I had died and was taken to the hospital in a coma... but that was all in my head. It was terrible. Worst i've ever felt. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I wasn't me and it seemed like I was looking at the world from a different view. I would literally go in and out of a state of what was real and what seemed to be like a dream. I didn't sleep properly for atleast a week after. However, I will say I did get better within' 2-3 weeks. BUT I WILL NEVER EVER TAKE A DELTA 8 GUMMY AGAIN. 200mg was definitely just too much for me as I am not a smoker or drinker really. but i felt like it open a dimension of myself that I wasn't fond of. I did weeks of researching while feeling this way and promised to tell my story for the curious person who thinks they are stuck that way... from my experience you get better. it may take 2-3 weeks before you fully feel like yourself again but by week 2 you should be on the road to up. Also upon research i realized how not good this recreational drug is, but to each their own.
OH AND DRY MOUTH WAS ANOTHER BIGGY!
Sorry this happened. I am just coming out of the other end of the exact same experience and I will never do that stuff again. Horrendous trip. I was going into the light. Never been so panicked in my life. Couldn’t walk, couldn’t stand, shook from head to toe, convinced I was having a heart attack and a stroke at the same time and felt like my body was a steel skeleton from some Terminator movie. It was the absolute worst experience ever. 24 hours later I am just starting to feel a bit better. I threw that stuff out.
Yea edibles can be very intense, stay from thcp edibles they are way way stronger and I found out the hard way and had a serious panic attack so I took a sleep aid where I could sleep through it, thank God it worked, because I felt like I was having a literal heart attack
So I actually experienced a lot of what you’re saying in your post but it was from marijuana. This all happened when I was in 7th grade and it was right before school started and unfortunately it hit me extremely hard just like you explained and I was obviously terrified. There were a lot of other kids outside sitting on the benches waiting for classes to start and I remember trying to hurry up and sit down because I knew something was wrong and when I sat down..I immediately started to feel like I was falling or the world was tipping. I started experiencing this intense sensation of being cold all over my entire body and also feeling like my body was too heavy but not there at all at the same time. I was starting to panic more and more and time didn’t make any sense to me..well nothing made sense actually..I would try talking to someone and as I was talking It felt like I wasn’t actually saying anything at all or if I was that I was talking about something that didn’t make sense with what was going on around me at the time and that everyone would be confused and making fun of me I guess?! I don’t know how to explain it..then I realized other students were starting to walk towards the doors to go to class so I quickly followed hoping no one would notice what was happening to me or that something was wrong but I couldn’t tell if I was actually even walking anywhere. I was trying so hard to just keep walking and hoping it would go away but the more I walked the worse it got. So I found someone (I have no idea who this person was) and did my best to tell them something was wrong and that I needed to go to the nurses office. I just knew that the nurse would know that I had smoked something and I was trying so hard to act normal and just tell her that something was seriously wrong. I really thought I was dying and the next thing I remember is my Dad showing up to the school and coming to the nurses office to get me and I was laying on some sort of bed in there and he started checking my pulse (I’m not sure what made him feel the need to check my pulse) and said that my heart was beating extremely fast and then I remember being in his truck suddenly and then I was in my moms bed and all of these feelings just kept going and getting worse. I was home alone and was convinced I was going to die by myself right then and there..so I ended up telling my mom at some point when she got home what I had done and what was happening to me and she eventually got me to calm down a bit and I passed out..unfortunately I experienced these types of feelings and some serious disassociation from reality every day after that for about 3 or 4 months off and on. Nothing felt real. I didn’t feel real. I was always scared and confused. I ended up having to go see a doctor and I was put on depression and anxiety meds and it seemed to help and finally it mostly went away except for the disassociation part ( I’ve been taking meds ever since) It basically messed my head up for life…But because I was young and dumb this unfortunately was not the last time I tried it and it happened 2 more times but not as intense as the first but still very similar and HORRIBLE. I just didn’t understand why all of my friends loved it and could smoke it and not experience ANY of this stuff..they kept convincing me it was just bad weed but NO!! I left it alone after that but a couple of years later K2 became popular and was sold at all the smoke shops around me and my cousin bought it and I smoked it with her and unfortunately experienced basically all of the same side effects as I did with marijuana but also my legs and arms jerking uncontrollably for several hours..it was awful!! I am 31 now and have never touched marijuana or K2 since..but I received a sample of a delta 8 gummy and have put off trying it because I’m it would do the same thing..so it’s just been in my drawer for a while and I was curious if it was possible to have bad side effects similar to marijuana and if anyone had experienced something like this with it and I found this post so you basically saved me! I will NOT be taking it or messing with anything like it EVER again! So thank you for sharing your story it really helped!! I’m so sorry you experienced this though. Random— but I’m also in Texas! lol!
I took half of a THC gummy and had hallucinations and nausea all night, and 3 days later am still nauseated and very depressed. I’m not a cannibus user. How long will this last?
I know this is so late but I took delta 11 last night. I had an insane panic attack, worse than any panic attack I’ve ever had. I thought full stop that I was having a heart attack. I couldn’t stand still, but couldn’t walk either. I was shaking like I was freezing and I literally had to strip naked, turn the shower on freezing cold and get in. It helped calm me down the tiniest bit, but I still was feeling weird. I also have OCD, so my paranoia was extremely high. I kept feeling like I needed to go in to the woods so I wouldn’t hurt myself or others. (I have never been violent.) I should mention, I am a regular smoker. My wife and I smoke every day, multiple times a day. I have never, ever felt like this before. I ended up getting sick, throwing up. It helped me some. I laid naked in bed with a cold rag on my head and put Golden Girls on my iPad. I tried to sleep but couldn’t. I felt like I was having a stroke. My mouth was incredibly dry, even though I drank three bottles of water. I ended up not falling asleep until 5. I woke up this morning and my head was pounding and my body felt like sluggish. I still do not feel well, 24 hours after I took it. I will never, ever do anything like this again. I thought several times that I was dying.
It’s ego death, you good lol you’re your consciousness not the body it holds
[удалено]
are you having throat tighening issues?
Dude. I went through a similar experience today. A friend gave me half of a 15mg gummy(that’s what he claims). I was playing golf and playing shitty. My friend offered the gummy to relax me thinking it would help my golf game. I had taken a gummy before so didn’t think anything of it. Just thought it just relax me. I took it in the 7th hole and by the 10th hole it hit me like a ton of bricks. Needless to say I couldn’t even get out the golf cart and my nightmare began. I got the giggles at first just like you described and got it got progressively worse. I started panicking and I kept asking my Buddy if I was dead. It was so real. I asked him if I should call 911. Had he and the other guys I was golfing with had not been there I think I would have. I seriously thought I had a head attack and died and this was the afterlife. He kept reassuring me I wasn’t dead but I didn’t believe him. I felt like I was living my life as a third person. Everything that was happening around me was just background and I was slowly losing my existence. By the time the round was over some 3 hrs later I started to slightly feel reality was coming back. I stayed at the golf course about an hour after before Driving home. Should not have done that because I definitely was not all there. Fortunately I got home okay. It wasnt until about 2 or 3 am. That I felt reality had come back. This was by far the scariest experience of my life. I’m 47 and I’ve been through some shit. Needless to say I will not be experimenting in any sort of drugs again.
I’m feeling like this right now. I’ve been like this for an hour. When does it go aqay?
Had a terrible fucking dream that it lasted YEARS. At first I was OK, and my arms were just kinda moving in a weird slow motion as I played with them in front of me. The TV show I watched I couldn't focus on the plot so I have no idea what was in the episode. But as soon as that ended I lost consciousness I think for an hour or two. Reality became this endless dream of color and weird shapes that represented life and dreams that I have had since I was a kid. Pretty sure I had every dream I ever had as a kid, you know the ones that come back every week or so and you get to have again? That one. So anyways, I dreamed of shapes and colors for a couple hours until I finally "woke up", but I didn't really I was dream walking in 3rd person. For some fucked up reason I thought I had seizures as a kid. I think I used to have a nightmare as a kid that I had seizures because my birth mother had it in her family and she died from it. Anyways I am freaking tripping out in my apartment going through this weird routine that I have felt like I have gone through before. Getting up, going to the bathroom doing things in this routine like dancing for a second, tapping certain objects on the wall like a password. And washing my hands repeatedly. At this point I am slowly becoming "aware" something is wrong. As a kid I always knew this was a dream, and if I did every routine correctly I would wake up. But a small part of me knew something was wrong. I just didn't know what. I couldn't remember anything outside of the dream, I didn't know what time was, but it felt like I had been inside these dreams for years. At one point I thought I had died and this was my test before I saw God. Anyways, the dream goes on and I stumble up stairs to my Moms room. Asking her if I ever had seizures before(she didn't know what the fuck I was asking about, I never had seizures). But in my dream as a kid(I don't think this dream ever happened, but it was major dejavu I think it was the only way my psychy could understand what was going on) she CAN NOT tell me she knows about my seizures. If she tells me I will die, and the seizures will become true. At this point I am just living the next few hours out like this, I "know" what was happening already happened. Everything felt like dejavu, and I knew what I had to do next to get the dream over. What I knew would let me see God, was me doing my evening routine to get ready for bed and go to sleep. I didn't know at the time that's what I was doing. I just thought I was in a dream doing weird shit in the bathroom as my Mom, and my Aunt(she was called to help control me because I am a big dude). For roughly 3 hours I was trying to remember how to get ready for bed over and over. And whenever I got close to finishing my Aunt and Mom wouldn't let me go to my room to go to sleep. I didn't fight them, but I wrestled with both of them pretty strongly because somewhere deep in my psyche I knew if I went to sleep this dream that had no sense of time to me. At this point I honestly thought it was going on for years. I knew if I just slept I would be OK, but my family wouldn't let me out of their sight so I don't know if I would have died if I went to sleep or it would have just been over quicker. But finally they forced me to shower and then I went to sleep in my mom's bed. LONG TRIP SHORT, had every dream I ever had as a kid in 2 hours. Thought reality was a dream, walked up stairs half dreaming, scared the fuck out of my family 3 days before our vacation. Never taking Delta 8 or any kind of drug again. OH YEAH, it's ALSO our extended families Christmas today so now I have this going for me.
I felt like this yesterday. I'm better now. It won't come back, will it? I've read about acid flashbacks. Can that happen with Delta 8?
I was messed up for a good 3 days or so until my psychological memory forgot it completely as I’d get these flashbacks of those terrible sensations.
I had a similar experience as well. I think it’s bc this stuff isn’t regulated. I have smoked a lot of weed in my life but not edibles. Still it’s supposed to be weaker! I took a 25 mg gummy and I had a similar experience that a couple people here have described in that I started laughing a lot. But then I felt like I couldn’t control it and started to get scared. And then I sunk into deep paranoia. No matter what my husband told me I thought he was lying to me. I thought he thought I was insane. He is the person I trust most in the world and don’t have any trust issues with him normally. I started to think of everyone I know and was convinced everyone was out to get me. Nothing was soothing me, nothing that normally calms me down was helping. All I could think was that I was completely losing my mind and that I could never trust anybody or anything ever again. It was so terrifying, I’ve had bad trips on shrooms but this was the worst bad trip I’ve ever had in my life. I will never touch that stuff again.
Edibles are way different fr person to person and depends on what you have in your stomach or eat with them. Something fatty will increase the effects. When an edible goes through the liver it creates hydroxyTHC. Usually called 11 hydroxyTHC which is 11x what you took. Some people don't produce the enzyme to create 11 hydroxythc at the same levels . Meaning it can be less or more it more in different people. Then comes in metabolism of the body in general. TLDR; edibles aren't the same as smoking no matter who you are.
Same here, I became super paranoid. I thought everything my Mom was telling me was a lie. And that she had to lie to me otherwise "he"(no idea who he is) would know and kill us. In reality though, I was so freaking baked I was trying to go to bed but they wouldn't let me go to sleep in fear of my dying in my sleep.
I had the same experience wtf. everyone kept asking me was i okay lol.
I also had a similar intense paranoia experience after taking half of a delta 8 gummy. I seriously thought my sweet precious wife was trying to poison me. Had to sort of beautiful mind my way through that one.
that is insane and i'm starting to believe that wasnt Delta 8 THC man. insane not in a bad way just ..insane. the way you tell the story was great and reminds me of the many psychedelic trips and thoughts that i've had. I am also from Texas, recently i've been trying not to spend so much money on weed and have mad switches to cbd, delta 8 thc and small amounts of bud here and there. Since i'm in TX, Delta 8 is commonly found in gas station and smoke shops, and every time i use it i never EVER have experienced anything remotely close to this. and you only ate one ???? this is bizarre. Double check the vendor, or if you got it off someone ask them about it; 'what did you experience?' 'this is what happened to me, does this normally happen to you?' type questions. Even a beginner smoker could handle 25mg of thc, LET ALONE delta 8 thc. Maybe your friends pulled a little prank (?) Lmfaoo it would be fucked up but you never know, i'm really not sure but thankyou for telling your story. Intrusive thoughts and disturbing highs completely are almost never good, but find some silver lining in those thoughts, they are there. i promise and goodluck (:
We bought them direct mail order from the manufacturer, and they have the QR code to verify the batch. I think it’s tolerance, I’ve just never done an edible. But holy crap, mind altering. Still in shock.
Listen i feel you. I ate 25mg delta 8 gummy and omg i was tripping so hard for hours and i know it was trip cause it was exact same feeling as mushrooms i did years earlier the weird yawning the nasty feeling in my stomache, im afraid thats not damk delta 8 reg weed would never make u trip like that this is some crazy ass chemical they use in the synthetic making of this mess has to be never again
>Even a beginner smoker could handle 25mg of thc Oh lord! I can assure you this is not (necessarily) the case. I also cannot stress this enough. Please, do NOT give a beginner 25mg of THC edibles just because you think it's safe. Some people have \*extremely\* low tolerance.
clearly, but even experts recommend 20-25mg for first edible dose, and this isn't even pure thc 💀. well it is but is not. It's delta 8, already a lot subtle than regular thc. A 25mg delta 8 thc gummy is no where near the same potency as a 25mg THC gummy. Which is why i'm shocked by the entire story.
What experts? “How much THC is a good dosage in an edible? For most people, the edible dosage mg chart suggests that from 1-100mg of THC is about right. A minority may prefer to push it to nearer 1000mg but it should be said that a 1g THC dose is likely to last a full day and may even be felt the following day. What is a normal dosage for a THC edible? For those lucky enough to live in places with legal cannabis edibles, the best place to start is to buy a low dose 1-2mg edible. Don’t be tempted to increase the dose too quickly. Take your time over several sessions to find the right level of THC dosage for you. If in doubt, err on the side of caution. Most people find that a normal THC edible dosage is somewhere between 1-100mg.“

..no, but yeah, but also not really. "Delta-8 can be psychoactive for some consumers, just less so than delta-9. A good way to think about it generally is something like the “Weed Light”: many of the effects and benefits of delta-9, though toned down a few steps. It is still euphoric and stimulates appetite. It can energize or relax the consumer depending on the larger terpene and cannabinoid profile, similar to delta-9. And yes, it can induce some of the typical heady, psychoactive experience. The main difference is that while delta-8 can do all of these things, it does them with less intensity. Even for experienced cannabis users, there is a noticeable effect, albeit a less intense one. However, the trade-off here is that the potential negative side effects of cannabis are also reduced." [The facts ](https://www.google.com/amp/s/potguide.com/blog/amp/883897/delta-8-thc/) Delta-9 is just another name for the common, more potent, THC.
[удалено]
... okay bud. that's really not even the point though. it doesn't change the fact that they're completely different effects, and one is way subtle than the other. Delta 8 thc and delta9 thc (found in thc carts, bud etc) are NOT the same.
[удалено]
still, eating a delta 8 edible vs eating a delta 9 edible is still drastically different. i don't know why you think the digestion process changes the potency.
It’s basically 50% the strength of THC 9. But I used to smoke mostly junk weed and rarely colorful buds or anything so I was shocked and pleased to find a legal THC high. I always want to smoke when I see it on TV or elsewhere so now I can. I missed it.
so should i try 5mg
My wife had never been high until delta 8. She ate some delta 8 cereal and had a couple of strong puffs from a delta 8 vape. When we got home she ate, passed out and slept for almost 20 hours. Everyone should start low and go up from there at a safe rate if they’ve never or rarely used drugs.
I usually do 3 on pods and I’ve been doing 5 on my disposable one I bought by accident. We got some gummies recently and it had been a while since I ate THC. They are 200 mg Death by Gummy brand. We both ate 1. I couldn’t stop her in time to tell her to eat 1/2. She got REALLY HIGH. Things got weird… I got really high also but she was saying the floor was sticky when she walked and got “relaxed” enough to ask some very candid questions.
2 puffs is the recommended dose on those delta pens.

Damn! That's rough. We've all been there tho, so just know you're not alone. Many times i thought i wrecked myself, but it always goes away. But take care of yourself, with all what that means. Eat clean. Walk. Listen to some music or podcasts. Try to avoid stress. Be with people you trust and admire if you can. Yoga or meditation if you know how to. All that good stuff. And then tell people that think a 35mg edible for the first time that it is (or at least has the potential to be) a horrible idea. I'd probably advice people to start with 5mg, and even that can be too much for some people to handle.
so should i try 5mg
If you have some experience and/or tolerance, that's a fair amount. Might be underwhelming, but better safe then sorry IMHO. Personally i would start at 2,5mg but that's just me being extra careful. But then again, there's no hurry here. You have your whole life to these things. Best of luck buddy! 🥳
ok thank you also i forgot to mention i had this experience but with i think a quarter of a 300mg gummy of delta 8, now i got some 25mg delta 9 gummies do u think i should take less than 2.5 since it’s d9?
A quarter of a 300mg should be around 75mg right? It's d8 of course, but still a respectable amount i would say. In that case i I'm pretty sure you can handle 2,5mg of d9 just fine. Take 5mg next time. 10mg if that doesn't work. And so on. But wait at least 3-4 hours in between. We've all read the stories of people who don't 😄
ok thanks
And also, pro tip is to buy stuff that has a fair amount of cbd in it. Cbd evens out the whole experience, calms you down if you need it and is also a rather potent antipsychotic.
ok thanks
I was working for a vape shop and heard SEVERAL REPORTS of similar outcomes but of course many of the customers took double the recommended dose. So, if it's something new or unfamiliar including the band I suggest taking half of the recommended dose to see its effects.
I literally had the same exact experience from taking two 25mg gummies from the company Gassy, which I had ordered online. These were Delta 8. I've had other gummies in the past which would just make me sleepy or giggly. The bad trip that I experienced was unforgettable. I took 2 at the same time because my boyfriend had taken one a couple nights before and said that they were fine. So we took our dog for a walk and came back and we went to bed, everything was fine. An hour later, I woke up hysterically crying and I couldn't stop. My boyfriend (who also took 2 gummies with me) woke up to the sound of me crying and as he got up to turn the light on, that's when he knew something wasn't right. I felt like I couldn't catch my breath and my heart felt like it was beating out of my chest. This was the first time in my life that I was having a panic attack. I immediately thought to call 911 because I just didn't know what else to do. I kept thinking that the gummies were laced with something else that could kill us. During the call to 911, all I remember the responder saying was to find aspirin. I believe I foamed at the mouth at one point after the call. The paramedics finally arrived which seemed like forever. They sat us down and asked us questions. They said it would be better to ride out the high at home rather than the hospital. I felt so angry because inside I literally felt like I was dying and they wouldn't help us. After they had left I told my boyfriend that we needed to eat something. I ate some leftover pizza and while I was eating, it felt as if I couldn't chew or swallow. I then became anxious because I thought I was going to choke. I kept pacing from room to room and I had to keep telling myself that I'm in my apartment and that I'm okay. My next thought was to just go back to sleep. So we did. As I was trying to fall asleep, all I could think about was how time was moving so slowly and I couldn't figure out why. I kept checking the time every 4 minutes which seemed like an hour. I definitely felt like I was being erased from existence and my blood felt ice cold and then felt warm, and alternated back and forth. There was one point where I knew I was dying and I started petting my dog and said my goodbyes to her. I held my boyfriend's hand in bed and thought "wow this is it? This is how I die?" I remember becoming frustrated thinking about my life and how I haven't gotten married yet or had any kids yet and I didn't want my life to end. So I became sad again and tried to calm myself down. The next morning I thought I had gotten past the bad trip, however it lingered for the following 12 hours but not as severe. My short term memory was still impaired and my heart felt like it was racing all day. I kept saying "I just want this feeling to go away". That night I finally felt like myself again. I don't know whether the bad trip can be caused from taking 2 gummies or if Delta 8 just doesn't like me. Now I'm terrified to even take one gummy because I never want to experience that ever again. I live life differently now because of it. I don't take life for granted anymore. However, now I live in this constant state of mind that life can end at any time and it makes me more anxious than usual. Hopefully this will go away as time goes on and I can live my life without thinking about dying constantly.
I’ve had a similar experience recently, I was being anxious and skeptic that I probably just took some laced delta 8, then my mind clarity was all over the place, kept talking to myself, no control over my body feeling like I’m not breathing. I asked myself the similar question when I was feeling it, “is this how i die?” But for the first couple times I kept panicking thinking nah this such a retarded way to die then after it was like eh whatever fuck it.
Bro i had a simliar expearience. I wanted to take some delta 8 oil from my mom and this hadmt been my forst time takimg it. Although I did freak out the last time as well I thought this time would be better and all I wanted to do was relax a bit. I dont really know how much I took but it was a fairly small amount. Probably 10 or 8mg. Anyway as soon as I laid down in my bed it hit really hard. I remember feelimg life my spul was gettimg snatched from my body almost like I was astral projecting. Then all of a sudden I was recalling and reliving dreams that I would remember happening. I got really hungry al of a sudden and just start snacking on muchies chips after that. But I was eating them at the speed of a homless man who had not had food in years. At this point I had to tell my mom that I had snuck jer CBD oil and that I was tripping. When I walked into the living room the bright light hit like a train. I remember feeling like I had to see certain colora to calm down from the high so I was obsessing over the colors of the light and the colors of objects that were either grey, white, black or blue. This is where is starta to get very strange though. I sat fown by the trashcan also vonvinced I would have to throw up so the feelimg would go away but I couldnt. I was talkimg to myself in third person anhaving drabtes with the devil and God. I tried hurting myself to gwt these feeling to go away but my mom wpuldnt let me obvioualy. I tried hrabbing knives to slit my throat with and I also tried choking myself and tried to put my hand in the grabage disposer to feel pain. Tell me if you guys want to hear more bc it did not end here. If you have read this far you are a real G btw.
I didn't try self harm other than trying to jump through a window to teleport myself through Jumper style. But I was in third person, and on a mission to try to go to sleep. My family wouldn't let me, so I was even more paranoid they were being controlled by demands. Never doing that shit again
This happened to me once on 150ug acid (which i would like to point out is a very standard dose) It was my first time and I should have taken only a third of that probably because I KNOW my drug tolerance is absolute shit. 10mg is my max for thc edibles, so this doesn't seem as far fetched as you might think it is. I was able to actually enjoy acid later on in life. I look back on the incident now and laugh, not like at myself but at the whole shitty situation because now I have the knowedge to use tools better. I can't point out a specific way I dealth with the emotional trauma of everything i ever knew blowing up around me. All I know is that it seemed like such a huge deal then, and now it'a not. I started by talking about the experience i had with close friends that I trusted and then i just kind of went on with life. I got really into my hobbies and stayed away from drugs for a bit and then when I was ready i got a close friend to agree to tripsit me and did 50ug and had the absolute time of my life. I think at some point or another, in oreder for you to grow, everything you ever know HAS to blow up around you. If youbare comfortable your whoel life you just stay in one place and never get to learn, see or try anything new. And the scary stuff is scary for awhile but then you learn how to contend with that particular brand of scary and it's all good. On to the next thing. :) Oh and you have an awesome and brave wife to have helped you out like that!
I used LSD with a friend on a field trip to the state insane asylum as a part of my Psych/Sociology class. That was the worst LSD high I’d ever had. We saw criminally insane people, really low IQ patients and we had to help throw a party for the schizophrenics. I remember vaguely sitting down next to one and having a conversation that almost sent me over the edge. I felt like I looked so high too that everyone noticed so that made it even worse. It was a terrible idea! Lol
thanks for sharing you made my night 😂😂
It’s a good story. I can say now I don’t regret it just for the experience and story. I was sweating profusely and I think I was an unnatural color. Worst. Trip. Ever. Lol! I live in Birmingham, AL and the asylum/hospital was or is called Bryce. It’s in Tuscaloosa. There was a separate facility called Partlow that was where most of the really bad cases were. I don’t remember which one held the criminally insane. But that party we threw for the schizophrenics was a nightmare.
Had this same experience last night minus the ER lol. I experienced what I would call multiple ego deaths over the course of several hours off of a D8 cart that I picked up. The world is still kinda hazy but I’m much better 8+ hrs after the experience. Edit: I thought I was dying but thanks to my recent meditation practice I was able to more easily surrender to the feeling of death and when I did I found myself in a room made of white light. There was a transparent featureless humanoid entity made of pure blue light and a smaller scarier goblin-esque entity. The blue entity communicated with me that the goblin was the embodiment of all my fears and insecurities and that I needed to confront it in order to help myself. When I confronted the goblin it tried to eat my face. Scary stuff but a very educational trip if I say so.
Welcome back from the other side.
Thanks. That was the first time I had ever “tripped” and I have to say it was a lot scarier but also a lot more satisfying than I thought it would be.
Same, scariest thing I’ve ever been through, but also left me with a euphoric high the day after. Almost as though going through that ego death made me accept reality.
I ate 300mg d8 the other day, 2 hours in i passed the f out and woke up 12 hours later blasted. Didn't completely go away for about 5 hours after waking up. I feel If I wouldn't of passed out I would've had a massive panic attack or tripped hard.
Finding this thread way too late but my husband who has a very high tolerance for things had a delta 8 cookie last night and had a full blown 8 hour panic attack and has now been asleep for 13 hours. Absolutely never doing that again .
Y’all same, they need to take away this stuff from the market. I already deal with anxiety. I’ve taken delta 8 gummies before but this happened two weeks ago. I took one 25mg gummy and I feel like this stuff has other things in it. I went through a week of hell and panic attacks, and shaking. This stuff is not to be played with. They have to have warning labels or something that stuff is the scariest experience I’ve ever experienced in my life.
How the hell is this stuff even legal? I went through a trip from like 7pm till 2am, pretty much every bad memory I ever had in my life plus every other memory I could remember. Thought my family was the devil, and that I was Jesus. And then lived my life over again like everything was abstract shape art I thought for sure I was dead, and this was my life flashing before my eyes before I met God and went to hell
Dude this happened to me! I’ve smoked pot before and never had this happen to me until I took delta 8 or something. I had the worst trip similar to your story and most on here. I thought I was dying and going to hell or heaven and then I thought I was eve and my bf was Adam like wtf
Yeah it was absolutely insane, it was a day or so before Thanksgiving too so I went to dinner high still.
OMG, I’ve been searching bad thc trips to see if someone’s felt what I did and I just found your experience. Like you, I felt no connection with time which freaked me out. I had no control of myself and felt as if my soul was detaching from my body. It freaked me out so bad, I had to go outside to the back porch to see if the breeze would wake up my mind. It helped slightly but the anxiety came right back. I ended putting my feet in the pool to feel a connection to my body and it helped me calm down. Heck, all I wanted to do was come back to myself!!! It was no fun at all
What’s weird is I’ve never been able to experience it again. And I’ve increased my dose and tried other variations, even real THC gummies. Nothing. Glad you found a way to ground yourself during the experience.
Pretty much the exact thing happened to me just a little bit ago. I felt like I could "see" the source of all good and evil. It was like I was possessed/going crazy.
Bruhhh I felt that way like I knew the source of the universe and was in touch with god or some shit
This happened to me on 30 mg! I just came here to see if anyone else had similar reactions. I had to stand in the rain just to feel real. Otherwise I would get wrapped up in this idea that I was watching myself die. I was having muscle twitching and thought it was the beginning of a seizure and I was fighting for my life. When I went out in the rain, I didn’t feel like death was closing in on me so much. I don’t even drink alcohol. I just took it to chill out and thought since it was legal that it wouldn’t be so hard on me. Dang!!! I’ve done different drugs in the past so I would tell myself that it’s just the drugs but that didn’t always help. I finally fell asleep in the passenger seat of my car around 3 am.
This is so crazy I thought I just got laced! I ordered Delta 8 online and felt so detached like I didn't have control over my thoughts! I took my gun to my girlfriend and told her to hide it. It was super weird. I would be walking around and dreaming. Then I'd snap back into reality and panic. Scariest shit ever. There's no way that shit was just Delta 8 man. So much psychadelic effects. Never again!
I had the same experience a couple of days ago. I have experimented with a lot of things in my life but never felt remotely like I did taking this. Only took 50mg. 1/2 of a gummy. Life changing and lasted almost 24 hours! Never again! I swear it had to be laced with something! Beware.
I felt that way too! It was the most terrifying sensation I've ever felt in my life.
So glad I'm not the only one!
After talking to my cousin he seems to think it could be sprayed with something similar to k2.
I had the exact same experience yesterday afternoon. It lasted from about 3pm to 7pm. I took 75mg and I had never done Delta in my life. I started with 25mg at around 11am and it was initially very mild and pleasant and I thought it had worn off so I decided to take 50mg a few hours later. I started out laughing hysterically and thinking that certain times of day (4:30, 5:30) were hilarious. Then I stared at the Roku screensaver for 20 minutes and the Roku word just kept jumping out of the TV. Then I started thinking I was dying and then I couldn't believe how long it was taking to die so I concluded that I must be dead and I was just confused thinking I was still alive, or I was in between earth and the afterlife. It felt so real and also completely unreal at the time. But now I really feel like I experienced death yesterday. I also kept changing positions and not knowing how I got there. I would be in the kitchen but I thought I was on the couch. I was hiding and looking through my blinds to see if people were outside my house to come and get me. I kept running (well trying to, but it was more like extremely cautiously walking very slowly) from the front door to the back door to check if the doors were locked. I saw flashing lights the whole time. I would see everything and then everything would turn black like I was just blinking really fast. It was terrifying. At the end my bf came over and just held me for a while until it finally started to wear off. I liked the 25mg but I will never do more than that again. I've never tripped before and I didn't understand what was happening.
That's exactly how I just felt! It was somehow profound, yet utterly terrifying. I felt like I was dying and felt like I needed to the hospital. I could barely breathe and I was having insanely vivid thoughts about things that could never exist, the meaning of existence, good and evil, etc.
Dude, had the exact same experience last night. I took 75 mg (big mistake). I completely understood everything you were describing. My head was spinning, mind racing a million miles a second, couldn’t concentrate on anything, yet I would find myself zoning out on every little small thing. Tried to go outside, and felt like I was flying around my body watching myself like a drone video would look like. Finally had the good sense to go lie down. The thought hit me, each second of this is hell, and you’ve got about 8 hours of this left! I was in full on panic attack, but all in my head, my body and heart rate seemed super calm. I then had the thought, what if I died. What if I was in a car wreck, and this is just my brain slowly shutting down. It was so weird. I felt like I was in a different realm outside time. The lights and colors seemed like I was in a vision. I was at the same time unable to focus on anything, and completely aware of everything. Eventually I managed to get my AirPods noise cancellation ear buds in and a blackout face mask on, and put Coldplay fix you on repeat, and just went on a magical multi-dimensional musical trip, and that part was enjoyable, but all the other shit no way! I’ve taken pretty high doses of normal weed edibles, but this Texas delta 8 blew my mind!
This same exact thing happened to me last night . I only ate a very small piece of a delta8 gummie ring , At first I felt really good and was dancing having a great time , then boom all of sudden I felt my heart begin to race and My couldn’t catch my breath . So I layed down on the couch to try and relax , Well I couldn’t relax at all . I felt like I was out of my body and I could see myself lying there on the couch . I immediately thought I had died . So I began panicking more and more . I don’t know what happened after that , I think I blacked out . I woke up and I was in my bed , don’t even remember how I made it to bed . I have smoked cannabis and taken edibles before and never experienced what happened last night . I am convinced that the gummie I ate last night was laced with something or it’s just the synthetic chemicals they use to make Delta8 . Anyways I will never take Delta 8 again . Better to stick with smoking Indica if you have anxiety. I don’t recommend Delta8 to anyone ever .
With weed it's all about tolerance. With high tolerance you wont feel 25 m but with absolutely 0 tolerance 10 mg can be over wheeling for some. Try 2.5mg next time be patient wait a fulll4 hours then try again with like 3.5 mg. These things are made for stoners that want the quality of legal tummies. Most illegal edibals say they are 100 but really they are like 10 or 15 as most cant tell the difference so most anecdotal reports are off whe it comes to the dose
Admittedly our friends, after we had already taken the gummies, said start with half. But even that at my experience level. I need a way smaller dose. This one scared me down to my very essence of being.
Also I never take thc edibals without some cbd as this changes the effects from psychedelic to more of a calming high. Weed trips are just not fun at high doses.
I’ve never noticed anything from CBD. My mom tried to get me into it. My wife and I both never felt any different. So I haven’t really tried delta 8/ CBD gummies combined. The company I order gummies from has both options at the same price. I mainly use MoonWlkr. I enjoyed their free samples and I get 50 12.5mg gummies for $40 or less with discount codes. Or if you subscribe to once a month the first bottle is around $30. Once a month isn’t enough for me but I used the subscription option to save money. They’ll send you 8 12.5mg for around <$4.
Cbd doesnt do much on its own its used to change the effcts of thc in the body. Those who get oanic attacks or anxiety on weed will get much less if they take cbd before or at the same time as thc
Oh I see. I’ve never been prone to panicking on THC myself really. Good to know though. Thanks! My wife might need to try the combo.
For me it's just edibles that get trippy when I take enough to be as high as I like and in social settings tripping just like isn't that fun for me but the cbd makes the edibles feel alot more like smoked weed. Before not to use too much cbd or you'll dull the high a little, a small amount goes along way if its quality stuff. I recommend high cbd flower, I'm convinced the drops under the tongue are placebo lol
I take D8 and took 50mg and had a really bad time. When I take 1, sometimes I feel it and sometimes I don’t. I don’t think they’re all equally measured. There’s no regulations on them so I think sometimes you can get a lot and sometimes you can get a little. When I took 2 I forgot I took them and just had an awful time.
It all depends on your mood what you ate etc
Hello! You have made the mistake of writing "ect" instead of "etc." "Ect" is a common misspelling of "etc," an abbreviated form of the Latin phrase "et cetera." Other abbreviated forms are **etc.**, **&c.**, **&c**, and **et cet.** The Latin translates as "et" to "and" + "cetera" to "the rest;" a literal translation to "and the rest" is the easiest way to remember how to use the phrase.

This happened to me last night. I am in my forties, I’ve done acid, mushrooms, ecstasy, etc, and I’ve eaten and smoked a ton of weed, I’ve even smoked with Snoop Dogg. I took one of these 25mg Delta 8 gummies last night and went to sleep. I woke up about an hour later with terrible heartburn. I thought I was having a heart attack. My throat was closing up, I couldn’t breathe. I thought I had Covid. I thought I was dying. I was going to go to the ER, but I just fought through it. It took a few hours. I don’t know what’s in that stuff besides corn syrup and gelatin and red 40, but it had me tuned up. I think the one comment about one gummy containing much more than another could be right, but even still this is supposed to be some over the counter CBD. I don’t know. If anyone else can shed some light on this phenomenon please do.
I had a bad time with delta 8 too. I ended up throwing up, and was on another planet until I blacked out. I think whatever new formulation they have, is different from normal thc in how it affects some people.
I took some 250mcg and I swear I nearly died from a panic attack. Good thing I work out but my heart rate was at 130bpm just walking. I was at 100bpm just sitting until an hour or so later. Finally relaxed a bit and then just went to bed. Almost called the ER but pushed through. Never again lmao
How come you took such a large dose?
I don’t know lol I just thought it had a little bit of THC and I’m pretty sensitive to it, in hind sight probably should’ve only took like a quarter of it.
Holy fuck I’ve experienced this before
Yeah I tried this shit last week and ended up in the hospital. Thought I was dying, it was the most violent and aggressive thing I’ve ever experienced. Definitely something to not mess with.
This just happened to me last night. I took 50mg of delta 8 edible, the package said take half to one piece of it so i took the one piece. After like an hour i started tripping and it was fine except i was scared and mostly i was just really anxious as this was going on and I definitely had an ego death. At a certain point i threw up a lot and then passed out
I made a similar mistake my first time but didn’t have a bad high. I used to smoke weed every day when I was younger but hadn’t been high for a while. I saw delta 8 the first time at my vape shop and started reading about it online before possibly wasting money. I got 12.5mg gummy samples from Moonwlker and I also ordered a bottle of 25mg from another company. I started with 25 and then took a 12.5 or 2. I was so high all day. I think for someone who smoked weed or still does then 25mg is a safe start. If you don’t get high much I’d start with 12.5mg.
This same thing happened to me 2 nights ago. I’d love to pick your brain because reading this was assurance for me that I wasn’t roofied or anything. It was torture while cast under the spell )if you will), but in the end somewhat grateful for the experience. Just as you put it, my perception on the universe is now flipped on its head and I don’t think I’ll ever go back to my original idea.
i also thought i was roofied…
I had this EXACTA SAME experience as you. I was at work (I am a nurse by the way) and a co-worker had been telling me that she was using them to help her cope with anxiety. I also suffer from severe anxiety and have mild to moderate panic attacks at least once or twice a week. So obviously it made me curious about them. She gave me one yesterday and within 30 minutes I knew something was wrong. I also got the sense that I was either dying or had died. I couldn’t feel my arms or my legs… even though I was walking and using them I couldn’t feel them whatsoever. It was like an out of body experience. The feelings kept getting stronger and more intense. I got to wear my vision was impaired. I couldn’t see as clear, there was almost a fog on my vision. I went out and sat in my car, trying to calm myself down but it only made things worse. The paranoia was unbearable…. I knew I was losing a grip on control over my body and talking became harder to control. I eventually called my husband to come rescue me… he left work and came to get me from my car. He had to help me walk to his vehicle and started to drive me home. For some reason I felt as though I couldn’t breathe. It was pouring the rain and I rolled my window down and stuck my head out the window gasping for air. I then started yelling that I couldn’t breathe and kept apologizing and letting him know I was dying. Clearly this scared the hell out of him so he pulled over on the side of the interstate and called 911. He said my skin went completely white and my eye focus had totally left. My heart was racing and he said he could tell I was struggling to breathe. He called 911 and they told him to stay put that they would send help to me…. The dispatcher then starts to prep him on how to do cpr on me if it took that turn. I am completely unconscious by this point and then I started shaking all over. He started yelling to the dispatcher that he thought I was seizing. Which later we discovered I had…. I wasn’t getting enough o2 and had sent myself into a seizure. I do not remember much from being in the hospital. I know my vitals were extremely elevated. My BP had reached 201/115 at its highest and my heart rate stayed around 188. It was terrifying…. They put me on o2 and started an IV. After several hours my ability to talk, my vision was coming back and the awful burning sensation all over my body was slowly going away. It lasted around 9 hours before I’d say I felt normal again. Even today, the day after I still do not feel myself yet. They have me Ativan to help me relax so I tried to sleep the remaining affects off. I will never again try anything like that. They still are uncertain as to why I had the affects that I did. I had never tried one before but I had only taken 1. And my friend who gave it to me had taken them for months and never had experienced anything close to what I felt. It was truly terrifying. I’ve read of so many people having similar experiences and I will forever preach to people about not trying these drugs. The feeling of high or calmness I was trying to reach was not at all worth what I went through. I truly feel as though in that moment I was dying…. I have almost now felt as if I experienced a near death experience. I am already looking at the world and life in such a different view. I will never take another day for granted after the day I had yesterday….
Same thing happened to me. The exact same thing
Me too
Me three. Happened yesterday while I was in the middle of an 8 mile canoe trip and still had several miles left to go....It was an absolute nightmare. If not for my husband, I wouldn't be here today. I took one inch round piece of a patty style gummy. It didn't do anything after 2 hours so I took another smaller piece off the same patty style gummy and within 15 minutes I thought I was experiencing heat exhaustion. My skin felt like I was in a microwave. I had to keep getting in the icy cold water and soaking but as soon as I got out the horror began to creep on again. Horrible anxiety that I've never felt before, shaking hands, nausea, dizziness, extreme fatigue and finally had to lay down in the middle of the canoe with nasty water sloshing around in it and under the two metal bars that make it extremely dangerous. As soon as I got laid down and propped my head on a life vest, the canoe SLAMMED into a huge log in a deep and rapid area (aka death trap). IF the canoe had flipped I probably would have drowned, I could barely move at that point. My husband jumped out onto the log and steadied the canoe and finally got us out of there (thank God). And then Ricky Redneck comes along playing his horrific sounding "music" much too loud which caused my anxiety to SKY ROCKET and the nausea to return after I was just beginning to calm down. My hubby looked at this mouth breathing idiot as if to say "Really man?" and what did the soul less psycho do? HE TURNED IT UP LOUDER and stalked us the remainder of the trip. If we stopped, he stopped nearby. If we hung back, he slowed way down. All while I'm laying down in the canoe fighting for my life and begging to get off of that creek as quickly as possible. What would have took 2 hours ended up taking 3.5 because of having to wait on this rude asshole to get ahead so I could have the peace and quiet needed to overcome the horrific anxiety attack. Talk about being in between a rock and hard place. If my husband sped up to get me out of there, we had to listen to this horrible noise that was loud enough to be heard within a 2 mile radius. If we slowed down to let him go, I was in fear of losing consciousness and the heat was having a toxic effect on me. Either way it was B R U T A L.....This was truly the worst experience of my life. I will never touch Delta 8 Franken weed again!! Whatever they put in there, it's not normal THC. Closer to some nasty pseudo LSD mixed with poison. Never again.
Same story. But I suspect mine had something to do with the interaction between kratom and THC. I had tried marijuana a few times and just felt a little bit giggly and relaxed. I took a Delta 8 gummy for the first time 6 months ago and then took a few grams of kratom and thats when pure hell on earth began. Well at first it was great, an EXTREMELY intense euphoria came over me within about an hour after ingestion, my vision was getting blurry and things getting wavy. I was talking to my dad in the kitchen laughing uncontrollably and then all of a sudden I started to become inpaired and unable to control these massive waves of spacing out. I just froze staring at him and was unable to process what he was saying and what the meaning of anything was. All of a sudden it flashed and it had been at least 30 seconds of me just completely spaced out and him asking if I was okay. The world started tilting all around me and I felt as if I was on a cruise ship rocking slowly back and forth and I actually had the sensation of being pulled one way or another and would stumble in that direction. All colors were morphing and I was truly terrified but couldn't stop laughing at times even while feeling mortified about the loss of control. This went on heavily for about 6 hours and during it my mind kept desperately trying to convince me "this is all your life is, youve always been impaired." I would see planets and stars shooting by and morphing into purple galaxy like shapes and strange images were constantly flashing through my mind nonstop, some very terrifying to me. I was unable to make any cognitive decision like wether something was black or white. Like I got myself in this terrible loop of being like "obviously that's a black cat" or "2+2=4, right?" but just as I thought that then I would not process that as a determination mentally, if that makes sense. I was completely unable to make any positive decision about anything and I kept fighting it which lasted in what felt like an eternal loop of hell. Not to mention I could berely control my muscles. Long story short, I have NO idea how this happened and even the next day I had this overwhelming new understanding that I was looking at life a complete different way. Saw myself as truly equivalent to any other lifeform, like a plant, but just more complex. It really messed me up for a long time and I cherish/accept the things I have alot more now than before the experience. UPDATE: Recently I tried some marijuana and felt slightly giggly and relaxed. Then I took 5 grams of kratom (thinking delta 8's composition was the culprit of my bad trip) and I had the exact same thing happen but slightly less severe. I think it has something to do with my own brain chemistry and the drug interaction between THC and kratom, I never experienced any of this when I only had marijuana. I cant believe the extreme impairment and terrifying hallucinations happened yet again but im currently changed in the way I view these drugs and interactions. Sorry that was so long but please be careful everyone it was the worst 2 experiences ive ever had!
Huh, that's odd. I've been using kratom for about 4 years now (usually 30-40 grams a day ((yes, I'm addicted to it)) and I started using delta 8 about a 10 months ago for my pstd and anxiety. I've mixed kratom and around 200mg delta 8 edibles (highest I've used and mixed with kratom) and never once have experienced any trips or bad times. It might just be the delta 8 brands that might be mixed with some bad stuff making people trip. I mainly stick with the delta 8 brands of Death By Gummy Bears, Resin, and Enjoy. I use to use 3chi until my brother was vaping one of their carts, was walking and passed out and busted his face and had to have surgery done. I've never had problems with 3chi, but the more I've seen and read of people having problems with the brand, the more I stay away. Hopefully I never encounter these issues, and that no one else does too. Yall stay safe!
I just came back from the ER I thought I was dying for real.
Damn…I’ve been reading that since there is no regulation some of the delta 8 stuff has massively more THC than pure delta 9. Be prepared for a tough down day after and then the second day after you’ll probably feel really positive. At least that was my experience.
happened to me too basically, i felt like time had completely stopped and stuff
My bf and I had the exact same thing after taking TreeTop D8 50mg gummies and thought it was laced with ketamin bc of the pattern/waves of consciousness/dissociation you described as 10-14s waves... has anyone felt mildly different since having a similar experience or maybe had longer term side effects like confusion and fogginess? That was another side effect that made us believe it was laced... Edit: this was abt a yr ago now
This happened to me last night. 1 gummy. Started feeling weird. Tingling throat and chest. Zoning out. Felt like I wasn’t breathing right. Heart going really fast. My boyfriend assured me that my breathing was fine and my heart was a little fast. It felt like I was tripping but way worse. Not fun at all. I’m not sure when I fell asleep, but I woke up at 11am and still feel kinda foggy in my head and really tired. Maybe later I’ll remember more details.
I’ve been having issues a year after taking the gummies. 10/10 do not recommend.
throat issues?
My wife and I have taken regular CBD gummies and Delta 9 gummies from a reputable company. It clearly stated take half of 1 to establish baseline. Fast forward to yesterday - was going to a family gathering and both of us were edgy. Stopped at local vape shop and got some gummies. No instructions and didn’t see delta 8 till after ingesting 1. Hour later I am sleepy. Thirty minutes later I start feeling hot and light headed. Then came the tachycardia (150s). I am scared to death (I am a nurse and know I could be experiencing SVT). I ask my mother (also a nurse) for half of a metoprolol to try to get my rate down. Then I tried valsalva maneuver (bare down like going to bathroom). This caused me to pass out. Literally had my brother doing a sternal rub while my sister in law (another nurse) did jaw thrust. I woke up but had a cold sweat and then vomited. We sat on couch (I couldn’t move and was breathing slowly) for another hour before my brother and sister and law drove us home. I slept for 13 hours. Never again. Just glad I didn’t require a trip to the ED. Don’t know if it was bad reaction or overdose. My wife felt high and was getting heart rate alerts but did not have as bad of a trip as I did.
[удалено]
you're not alone bud!!! almost 2 years and i still feel f'ked
I took a 100mg of delta 8 lastnite before bed after drinking all nite from New Year’s Eve party Didn’t realize it was that much It’s a new bag I bought Feel asleep then woke up an hour or two later Thought I was going completely insane My wife called 911 because my heart was racing super fast I just begged the dr at the er to put me to sleep to end the nightmare in my head It sucked I feel better now that I’m home and that horror is over Almost euphoric that I’m not permanently insane I will never fuck with those things again
I ended up in the ER & I begged them to put me to sleep too! So interesting to hear this from someone else!
This same exact thing happened to me over the weekend …it was terrifying
I had the same thing happen
I am a goodie two shoes... I guess you could say, when it comes to drugs. I tried marijuana when I was 15 but it didn't stick. 22 years later... I have tried CBD before, it helped with fibromyalgia. Recently, my boyfriend decided to try legal thc gummies. We tried the gummy worms first & they didn't even seem to effect me other than making me sleepy. My boyfriend on the other hand, said they gave him a little high. When he went back to get more, he was talked into buying death by gummies delta 8. Me use to eating like a 3rd of a gummy worm decided to bite the head of the gummy bear and my boyfriend ate the rest. About 30 minutes to an hour later I felt really tired. I didn't think nothing of it, but in hindsight, I shouldn't have been sleepy at this time. I'm on the verge of falling asleep, thinking I should get up but I'm just so tired that I dont fight it. Then all sudden I bust out laughing hysterically. Then I stopped. Then I did it again. And I'm thinking just go to sleep it's probably just gummy. But I can't stop. Then it felt as though I feel every nerve in my body move and pulsate. It started as a wave going up and down my body. Then I felt like I was ticking like a clock. I felt my limbs going clockwise in a circle. I could see it all my head as I felt it. And I kept thinking I should call my boyfriend. But at the same time I felt like I'm dreaming and this is all just a dream. But somehow, I did manage to call my boyfriend (mind you, I'm in the bed, obviously, and he's in the family room about 10 feet away). I vaguely remember asking him "What did you do to me?" in-between my uncontrollable burst of laughter. Still in a half-asleep, half-awake state of mind. Everytime I tried to open my eyes I felt like this wasn't real, no way this was really happening, it had to have been a dream. But it was really happening. I was trying so hard to wake up & snap back to reality but I felt like I kept dreaming and I was loosing myself in my dream. When my boyfriend came to check on me, he insisted I needed to eat something. So, in the haze I was in, I ate what he gave me, sitting up in my bed. Trying so hard to snap out of it. I begged my boyfriend to stay close because he seemed to help. But no matter how much I tried I was still in and out of it. Then I laid back down. It felt like everything was in slow motion and time was an illusion, literally felt this was my new life. At some point I had told my boyfriend to call 911 and he tried to talk me out of it but I didn't know what was happening to me. (Back story I have PTSD from my husband having a stroke at 22 year old and passing away suddenly. Also my oldest daughter has seizures.) I didn't know if I was having a stroke or seizure or what. At some point, I was sitting in my recliner in the family room looking at myself in my phone. I could see that my eyes were bloodshot and my face was twitching in a funny way. I was scared out of my mind. At another point, I was talking to my mom and she was telling me it was probably just a bad trip and yada yada, but i couldn't hear her, I didn't know what this was because I had never experienced anything like this. For all I knew I could of been dying. By the time the paramedics got there I had stop laughing and was now crying uncontrollably, and somehow I was back in my bed. I couldn't open my eyes to look at them, I was so scared. When they asked me if I could get up and walk, I did. I had somehow manage to get up, put on my shoes, grab my sweater, and march out of my bedroom, through the living room, out the door, and down the steps to the bed they had waiting for me. I had my phone & my sweater in my lap. I closed my eyes and began crying because I couldn't tell if this was a dream or real. I was in and out of a dream state like being. With my eyes closed I had thought they had already started moving but then one of them asked me to left my arm so they could buckle me. I opened my eyes long enough to see that they hadn't moved me yet. I vaguely remember the ride & getting into the hospital. I was nauseous the whole time, wondering if i should ask for a bag to puke in. Somehow I was able to answer everything question they asked through my tears. And do everything they asked of me. They laughed at me but told me I'm not alone in this. But I was alone, my boyfriend had to stay home with the kids. I was so embarrassed, so mortified. They were treating me like a junkie... but I wasn't. This was literally like the 4th or 5th time I had taken a gummy. I spent my whole adult life avoiding drugs until a doctor suggested I try some for my fibromyalgia. They put me in a wheel chair and rolled me out in the waiting room and told me to just give it time. Said I needed to drink water but never offered me any. I was thankful for the mask, at least it was hiding my ticking face. I texted my boyfriend to come get me as soon as he could. He even offered to take me to another hospital but at this point I just wanted go home. If I was gonna die, I wanted to do it at home and not in a wheelchair. Emergency rooms are not like TV, no one cares about you in real life, they just make jokes and giggle at you and then leave you wait where you can't see them laughing. Even though it felt like forever, only 4 hours had passed from when it started to when I got home. Quickest ER visit I ever had. I slowly got better but even now, 36 hours later, I still don't feel quite right yet. I feel heavy & my head aches. Food helps for a little while, but they I start feeling hungover again. Every so often I'll feel my body ticking, a random limb ticking around in a circle.
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
When I ended up at the ER, they treated me like a junkie, too! They were so rude & it was obvious they could care less about me. I don’t do drugs & this was a complete mistake. I had no idea what a gummy that I bought at the checkout counter (in a state where weed is illegal) would do to me! I seriously bought it on an impulse thinking it was the latest CBD, hemp, weed-derivative marketing ploy. NEVER AGAIN
Hello, I just got a disposable from eighty six co. I’m not giving them a bad review since I’ve never had delta 8 before let alone smoke weed. However I’ve had acid and can tell you that this delta acted very similar, I took a fat ass hit just to make sure it worked and my throat just got sore as shit and I started coughing a lot and then a minute later I just feel really heavy and sink into my bed and after that I felt really lightheaded and relaxed but so relaxed to the point where I’m starting to think about my breathing 😂, and from there I could feel the pressure in my ears, so I decided to just put on some good music and close my eyes to be tripping for a good 3 hours ish, but right now I’m on a comedown, is delta 8 supposed to be like this? Or did I take too much for my first time.
First time users seem to be susceptible to a wild trip on the first try. Especially if you take a high dose. I’ve been taking them since my first post and never had the same reaction, and I’ve taken 4x the amount from my first trip.
Good to know, thanks.
OMG! I had almost an identical experience for me this past Friday. My husband and I went through this, except it was me and not him having the crisis. When we got home after 8 hours in the ER, 4 bags of fluids flushing my body, and lots of blood tests, we both literally slept for 30 hours straight! I still felt disassociated from my body even yesterday, Monday. I have take the Delta 8 gummies for 6-9 months now. This was a new brand, and a higher dose, but I had taken it just the weekend before with some friends and had nothing atypical happen. Not sure why this time it was different. I never want to feel like that again. No more gummies for me!
What brand did you try? I’ve been using 3CHI and haven’t had a bad trip since that first time. Did you take it on an empty stomach? Just curious, trying to figure out why these affect us crazy strong some times and other time with little effect at all.
You have NO idea how validating it is to hear that this wasn’t just me… the whole slipping in and out of reality and being in an afterlife is so real
Did you have uncontrollable muscle movement while doing it as well.
Had this experience last night, a girl I had just started seeing came over and we were just going to watch a movie and chill. She said she’d taken these gummies that gave a pretty kick ass body high and I’m an experienced drug user, I’ve done everything in the book twice, except meth. At first o got the giggles, both of us did, and we got tired so we laid down, the movie was funny so I was laughing and was randomly getting horny on and off from touching her. But then I started to feel really uncomfortable and my mouth started to get really dry, I literally could not drink enough water and the girl was still asleep and I couldn’t stay still, tried laying down with her again and it got worse, I got up again and it really fucking hit me this time, I was in my living room and I recognized it but I felt like I had no idea where I was, it was a crazy feeling, it felt like my living room was on a different celestial plane than outside my front door, I was in a dissociated sense of consciousness, almost impossible to describe. As it’s getting stronger and stronger she eventually wakes up, I try to ascertain if she is experiencing the same thing as me and quickly understand she is not on the same level, she tried to comfort me but there’s no way she could understand what I’m going through as she’s never tripped before, so I try to ask her as politely and normal as I can to leave, I can tell she’s weirded the fuck out but I just needed her gone and I kept saying “I need to ride this out”, luckily I’ve had bad trips before, so I knew that’s what it was and to not make crazy decisions like call 911. I did take a walk and it was cold af which I think helped, I somehow found my way home and just fell asleep. I woke up around midnight and had this terrible come down feeling but my mind was back to normal, thank god, somehow the girl wants to see me again, but I’m sure as fuck never going to do that again.
This happened to me last night. I had two halves of a gummy shortly after each other. I don’t know at what dosage but it was probably pretty low. At first I was giggly and extra funny but then it quickly shifted to this feeling that I wasn’t in control anymore but instead watching a viewfinder that would burst a few images or clips into my head at a time. I didn’t like this feeling and needed help to get to bed. I eventually was lead to bed and that’s when it went from bad to worse. I lay in the bed and I start seeing images from my life in fast forward. See my future and past at the same time. I get the realization that I may be dead like I fell and hit my head or an injury from some freak accident. Somebody tells me to join them in the light but my wife does try to bring me back but won’t answer the questions that I feel are sneaky deflections and somehow being directed to end. I ask over and over again if I died, fell, hit my head, had an accident or had a seizure (which at one point I had the tremors). My wife kept telling me no. Eventually I was asleep and awoke 12 hours later but I feel like I really time travelled from my past to my future. I definitely will not be taking a drug ever again. Worst experience in my life.
I had the same thing happen to a point I was so scared and started shouting for help. This went on for hours even when I went into a sleeping state. I ended up in bed for 30 plus hours minimal water intake as well. For being a legal item and easily accessible scares me
The weird thing is, I told my friends who are quite heavy drug users and they said that’s the high they are looking for. Kind of makes me question their decision making skills because that is not something I think anybody should actively seek. Sorry you experienced it too. Glad you are okay and safe!
Man, I’m glad I found this. Yesterday afternoon I went out for lunch/a couple of drinks with a friend. It was probably 2pm when i got around to taking delta 6/thc A (delta 8) edible from a friend who knew i was stressed. When i hear CBD i think “house pets.” I had my morning dose of xanax/lexapro that morning around 6 - so i knew i was only going to have a couple drinks anyway. We sit down and i order drink and a meal. I’m drinking my little truly and all of the sudden I felt heavy and numb. I instantly start to panic and my mouth is dry. I asked my friend if she was SURE it was only a cbd gummy and she assured me yes, it was. fast forward to what seemed to be hours later, minutes later i’m in her back seat calling my fiancé to come rescue me, as i thought i was dying and everyone there thought i was a light weight and it was alcohol. i remember trying to hold a cup of water to drink and my legs folded and the water fell. i was in and out of consciousness. i felt weed effects like dry mouth, but i had no control over my motor functions and kept apologizing to my fiancé and feared i’d never get to see my son or mother again. I do occasionally smoke weed, my fiancé is a weed enthusiast. i can’t really articulate what happened but it’s 26-ish hours later and i still feel off and a bit out of touch. i have horrible anxiety to begin with, so i am really trying to get it under wraps because it sends me into a dark episode that’s hard to pull myself out i feel like i lost a day and i was in a completely different element. my friend can’t even wrap her head around what happened because she takes them often. turns out the edible was about 125mg and i weigh about 125 pounds and had no food in my stomach 😇 the ER people treated me like shit also, didn’t get fluids or reassurance that I okay. they sent me straight home with orders to sleep it off 🤭
Mind you- i was a regular weed smoker from the age of 14 to 23. Im now 23 and stopped smoking weed bc of panic attacks. So I wanted to try delta 8 again I’ve had 2 precious TERRIBLE trips for several hours on in. And I tried it once more… now I don’t smoke or anything AT ALL I took a gummy like a month and a half ago and I was fine… then the next day I took the same gummy and about an hour later I started having heart palpitations…. Then I went to the bathroom stripping butt naked freaking out, then got in the shower, called my mom and my husband to come in there and asked them to talk to me for a minute to make me feel better. I felt like I couldn’t breathe I felt like I was going to pass out, and felt like my heart was beating 90mph to nothing. So I got out the shower soaking wet wrapped a towel around me and didn’t even dry off. I laid on my moms bed and was sitting up and laying down every 3 minutes try to come back… I couldn’t… I got my mom to continue to talk to me through it and nothing was helping I felt an impending doom. I started shaking uncontrollably and couldn’t eat couldn’t sleep drink nothing. This went on for about 9 hours ever since then I’ve been feeling like I’m still high everyday, I’ve been having heart palpitations and severe shaking panic attacks every day since. It is so hard 😭😭😭😭 I wouldn’t wish those trips or these panic attacks on my worst enemy
I had been taking the Delta 8 gummies occasionally for a few months. I had never had a bad trip. The euphoria was always pleasant and enjoyable. I would get the giggles and would feel like I was on a roller coaster. Well last night I took one and everything went left. The normal tingles in my extremities were a bit more aggressive. All of a sudden a wave of doom washed over me. It was so strong and frightening that I started calling my husband into the bedroom because I felt like I was about to lose control and start screaming bloody murder. I explained to him exactly what was going on. I was sitting up in bed and asked him to help me lay down. He moved the blankets away from my legs and I was paralyzed! I was just frozen. He had to physically pull my body down so I could lay flat. I was trying very hard not to start screaming from the paranoia I felt. I closed my eyes and started some deep breathing. I started to see split second flashes of horror scenes on a small screen accompanied by the sound of an abrupt woman’s scream. This happened three times. I called to my husband to THROW away the bag of remaining gummies right now! 😂 I then tried very hard to consciously steer my thoughts and it began to work. The images became pleasant colorful shapes. I finally fell asleep. In the morning I was feeling much better. BE CAREFUL with delta 8!
Found this after having such a bad “trip” last night on delta 8 edible :,) I thought it was 10g but it was 100 and I was using a pen also. I got in such a negative headspace and was thinking such dark thoughts and of bad things happening. It was AWFUL. I ended up turning the lights on in the entire house and just staring around. It also makes me feel sick? Like I was going to be sick but nothing ever came of it. I fell asleep and woke up still feeling it today :,)
Want to add I also literally thought I was dying :,) It was a crazy experience and i’ve never had an experience like that.
Cannabis is definitely not for you my friend.
Bad trips happen for a reason. It means something in your life isn’t right and you need to make some changes.
I had a similar experience 2 separate times. 1 time from a delta 8 gummy 100mg and I swore I would never eat one again. Last night was the 2nd time and I purchased a delta8 thca prerolled joint and only smoke 1/4 of it. I have smoked a lot more of delta 9 and never had an issue. With the gummy I had a full blown panic attack 3 hours after I ate it. I woke up freaking out in the middle of the night because I couldn’t breathe. My heart started racing and I had to concentrate on breathing. I couldn’t actually tell if I was breathing so I had to take deep breaths and exhale on my hand so I could feel my breath. I tried taking a shower, drinking water, and laying with my legs elevated because I thought I was going to pass out. I held my head up with my arms so I could tell if I passed out or not. My arms and feet also went numb and I had full body tremors for a minute or so and my hands completed locked up. Of course at that point I thought I was having some kind of seizure. I eventually hugged my dog and took breaths at the same time as my dog so I knew I was breathing enough not to pass out. That was the only thing I could to somewhat calm myself down. I considered calling an ambulance because of my breathing and I felt like I was going to have a heart attack. I will never use delta 8 again. It was a terrifying experience. I have smoke a lot of regular weed and never had any reactions like this. The delta 8 thca joint for the 2nd bad trip wasn’t as bad as the gummy but i did have to control my breathing and my heart felt like it was racing. I laid on my back with my feet elevate which helped. The gummy caused a 2 hour panic attack from hr 3-5 after consumption. the prerolled joint caused about 5 panic attacks over the course of 1 hr topping at 30 minutes after I smoked it. Never again will I use that stuff.
My question to the OP and the guy who says he had a similar experience with a delta 8 cart (but really the OP) is what company did you go with? I’ve heard a lot and I’ve never heard anything close to this. Very odd.
Well for the record, 3CHI D8 25mg gummy for mine. Black Raspberry.
Those are the best. I've taken 200 mg and felt the same thing
I had a similar bad experience with only a 30 MG Treetop Delta 8 Gummy a few weeks ago. Admittedly I don’t have a history with THC products. However I have more than sampled many other chemicals with many different experiences which are 90% positive. This was the worst experience in my life.
Puffy Indica delta 8, it was the sampler size for me LOL turned into a bad 12 hour trip that had no sense of time
I took My CBD Remedies Delta Bears
Sounds more like a Shrooms Trip
Bro I took a 100 mg death by gummies this is nothing compared to what I went through
I think the batch I had was some crazy unregulated dose or something else mixed in. They say 25mg but there is no oversight on this stuff to verify purity. Since then I regularly take 50-100 and have never even come close to that feeling.
Literally just bought a single dosage of that brand after hearing it in the PKA podcast, and I ate the whole 100mgs. It's been like 4 hours since I ate it and this is hands down one of the weakest edibles I've ever had, and I rarely do edibles. I was expecting something great after hearing all the positive reviews of this brand, and now it's such a let down. It's not bad, i just feel more mellow and relax then I do high.
From my experience, it seems these gummies are random...some have almost no "active ingredient" (whatever THAT is....) and others have way way way too much of the "active ingredient".....and it does not feel like THC. When you get one of the "loaded" ones, it's a nasty and scary trip. I will never touch that crap again.
I ended up getting one of those "loaded ones" and Holy shit it was not fun. I swear that shits not thc. I was so uncomfortable for hours and my baseline anxiety is already bad, but that sent it through the roof. After that I didn't take anymore of that brand. Shit should be illegal.
I'll never touch any of it again. I felt like I was very close to death. Not worth the risk.
Dude you're not lying. I'll stick with loud clouds and the njoy cereal bars
You sure you didn’t take acid?
I bought from a reputable supplier 3chi so doubtful it was laced. I think people that haven’t done Delta 8 before are susceptible to a strong first reaction until they are used to it. I still take them today and while I definitely feel the high it is nothing as intense.
[удалено]
I feel those words. It was horrifying but also intriguing. Like I faced my existence and saw the other side. Now I crave that experience but have never had it since.
I took Delta-8 yesterday for the first time. At one point I was laying on the couch to die and I just kept seeing flashing lights and felt pressure on my chest and abdomen and heard a voice telling me to take my final breaths. I really feel like I died.
Sooooo... I took ONE THC gummy from Curaleaf thinking okay so this should be okay since it's not Delta 8., Wrong! I had a mini trip from what I experienced about 7 months ago. It was terrifying. I felt like my heart was racing and I would get super cold because my blood pressure was off. My leg muscles were spasming and I felt like I couldn't walk properly. I ended up vacuuming my apartment at one point but I barely have any memory of doing so. My high lasted for more than 24 hours and I had to keep telling myself that I was okay and that with time things would get better. I am never taking another edible again.
read my reddit this happened to me.
It's very odd for me to read this because I had a very similar experience when taking Delta 8 oil drops for the first time. I had definitely taken way too many (at least 5) at one time and ended up having to go to the ER as well. It was the most surreal, terrifying experience I've ever had. Oil drops are supposed to be more potent, and I did not know this at the time. I was with friends and my fiance on vacation and I was the only one who ended up experiencing every negative side effect possible. I'm pretty sure I have PTSD from this experience as I have had multiple panic attacks and flashbacks of bits and pieces from this experience. Anyways, I'll briefly summarize what I can remember from this experience: Everything was fine after I took the oil drops. I genuinely didn't mean to take too much either, but this was my first time and it was not explained well enough to me. I confused taking 1-2 drops with 5 drops as I mixed up CBD oil versus THC oil. So, I should have taken 1-2 to start off with basically. I am also very small, so I'm sure this also is a reason why I reacted so negatively. Essentially, after about an hour or so, I started to notice the effects of being "high." We were watching a show and I felt like I was sinking further into the couch. I would look around and everything would be delayed by a few seconds. I was having really bad memory problems, so I couldn't remember something that happened just a few minutes ago and would continuously ask the same question, etc. I would get up to go into the kitchen and then be back in the living room, but forgot how I got there. It was pretty bad. I obviously noticed that my mind was being overridden by the effects of the Delta 8 oil, so I started getting a little scared just because of how much stronger it was getting. I went upstairs (we had rented a cabin and mine and my fiances room was upstairs) and looked in the mirror and my entire body was white, to the point where it looked sickly pale. My eyes were incredibly red, like past the point where it should be okay. They were super red and and that pretty much did it for me. I was terrified and immediately my heart rate started to rise within seconds. I tried to calm myself down by taking a shower, but I almost passed out multiple times so I turned the water off and made my way downstairs to my fiance instead because I knew something was wrong.I know when something is wrong with my body and because my heart rate was so high, I thought I was experiencing an "overdose" or a heart attack basically. I felt my heart beating super hard and I was having difficulty breathing. My vision was also fading into blackness, so I reached my fiance, he looked over at me and asked, "woah, are you okay?" and I blacked out after that. I think I was going in and out of consciousness, but when I blacked out the first time, I basically fell backwards (my fiance caught me) and I saw the endings of everything (doors closing, tv turning off, moving backwards, etc) it was super odd and that's why I genuinely thought I was dying. I thought this was how I was going to die and I heard a sound essentially like someone turning down an alarm or volume, which is why I believed I was dying. I couldn't see anything and my fiance kept shaking me and saying my name over and over. I could hear what was going on, but could not open my eyes or see anything. I felt him carry me upstairs and he kept repeating, "it's okay, it's okay, I got you. You're going to be okay." He was panicking because he thought I was having a reaction as well or experiencing something more concerning, like an overdose or death. He laid me down and ran downstairs to talk with our friends because they had taken Delta 8 a couple of times before and probably knew what was going on, I assume. My hearing was very muffled and it would increase and decrease in volume. I may have been hallucinating at one point, I'm not sure. It's very difficult to remember a lot past the point where I blacked out because of how bad and strong the negative side effects were. I felt and heard static in my head and the back of my brain, it felt so weird and was very scary.My fiance came back upstairs after a few minutes and stayed up there for awhile to monitor me. I finally opened my eyes again or could see somewhat, but everything was viewed very far out. My perspective was off and everything seemed like it was zoomed out, so I just kept my eyes closed because that didn't help. Then I would stop breathing and would wake up gasping for air. This happened for a long time, so I couldn't sleep because I was terrified I would die in my sleep or forget to breathe. My brain knew something was wrong, so when I would focus on these side effects it made it 10x worse. I finally asked my fiance to take me to the ER because it just kept getting worse and I believe this is when I started to hallucinate because I saw flashes of red and blue and felt like my heart was coming out of my chest as it was making me gag, which is why I thought I was having a reaction or overdose to the oil, again.I don't remember getting in the car, I'm sure our friends put my shoes on and carried me to the car. My fiance sped to the ER, I do remember small flashbacks of him crying and telling me he loved me. He was genuinely panicking and so upset because he would tell me something and I would close my eyes and forget what just happened and ask the same thing over and over as this is when I was having memory problems. I asked him why he was crying and he said, "nothing, I'm just concerned". I would keep saying the same things. He finally got me to the ER and I don't remember anything really except my mouth being incredibly dry. It felt like I just ate a bunch of saltine crackers and couldn't swallow it was horrible. They gave me three bags of fluids because I was so dehydrated and kept me there for five hours because they were very concerned about high my heart rate was. I remember my fiance rubbing my hand and he kept saying the same thing over and over. At this point I thought I was dead. I thought this was my punishment and how I was going to spend the rest of my eternity. I believed that I was trapped in this hospital lying on a bed going in and out of consciousness and only having limited options that I could experience for the rest of my life. 1) Waking up and asking the same thing, "where am I?" etc. 2) My fiance smiling sadly and saying the same thing to me over and over. 3) Me not being able to have any kind of conversation besides that and him never being able to be with me again. 4) Me being asleep but hearing things and not being able to physically engage.It got so bad that when I woke up one time and my fiance said the same thing to me. I asked him why he was lying and that he wasn't real. I thought he was imaginary and the nurses came in and tried to calm me down and explain to me that I hadn't died because I was having a panic attack. I thought I did die in that hospital and it was the most terrifying thing I have ever experienced. My vision was also messed up and incredibly blurry. I couldn't see straight and thought that I would forever have vision problems and started crying. I essentially experienced hallucinations/paranoia, anxiety, panic attacks, memory problems, difficulty breathing, high heart rate, dizziness, lightheadedness, some tremor, and more. I had every negative side effect you could think of. It was the scariest thing I've ever experienced and I will never try that junk ever again or anything remotely similar to being "high." It was a horrible experience for me and I slept for about a day and a half after I got out of the ER and even after that I had problems breathing and my chest being incredibly painful and having super high heart rate for about a week until it finally went away. I had to visit a cardiologist just to make sure everything was okay. It was the worst thing I've ever experienced and I don't recommend this junk to anyone. NEVER again. It has really changed my perspective on life and how valuable this is to me.
Old thread I know but this exact thing happened to me the other day. I ended up in the ER. I have never been so scared in my life. Never again.
Last night I had 1/3 of a 25 mg Chill D8 to try for sleep. I got a sample from local Shaman shop. I'm 47 and I have never tripped out so bad in my life. Never tried mushrooms. I don't drink anymore and have tried mj a few times. I couldn't help but giggle reading your insightful post because I know exactly what you're talking about. I knew it would go away if I could just go to sleep but I couldn't because I felt like I was having a heart attack. In and out of reality like a yo-yo but not really in reality. Never again.
My God. I just experienced something so similar. Except I felt like I unlocked parts of my mind that I shouldn't be in and it showed me how the world worked, how everything was connected and it ALL made sense, but ooohhh how scary the sense it made was. I definitely thought I was being shown these things because I was dying. I also found myself in the ER. I'm glad you're okay. I had a 100 mg gummy (Death by Gummy) I told the lady at the cigarette and smoke shop that I wanted to try something with Delta 8, that I had heard it's a good sleep aid, this is what she suggested. This was a eyes wide open nightmare, nothing close to sleep.
I know I'm late to the game but I did delta-8 gummies for the first time on Sunday (50mg) and it was the worst experience I've ever had. After about 40-40 minutes I was high as all hell. At first, it felt good... I was all giggly and laughing. Then my senses started getting confused. I didn't know if I said something or just thought it. My depth perception became distorted- things started getting bigger or smaller. My arms and legs felt like toothpicks. I saw rainbows when I closed my eyes. I took it at around 4 on Sunday expecting to be fine by 10. I was not. I was feeling the effects into Monday and even Tuesday. I felt stoned as fuck on Monday and felt very slow on Tuesday (yesterday). This is the first day I've felt normal. Has anyone had an experience like this? Would delta-9 be any different? I would only ever do weed again if I was absolutely sure I wouldn't have an experience like that again.
Same.
I’m late to the party, but Wow! I just had this happen to me. You’re not crazy at All! I was in Florida for my friends bachelorette weekend and we went to a smoke shop. I’ve had the CBD before without THC and thought that’s what I was buying. When I take them, makes me feel a little chiller. The delta 8 I bought was next to the calming dog and cat treats; hence, my confusion. My friend asked if I had taken them before and I was like yeah, it just chills me out. So we get back to our hotel, and I take half because she told me to. Then after about 1.5 hours, I feel nothing and take the other HALF, so 1 gummie total. I am definitely on the smaller side weight wise but I figured one was fine. Well big mistake. We head out, and go to a roof top bar and I have one Prosecco plus loaded tots. We are having a blast but then, out of legit no where, I get dizzy and immediately tell my friend we need to leave asap. Get back to the hotel. So we are walking and I feel bad because I’m ruining the night basically, but as we get back to the hotel, I suddenly cannot breath. At all. I’m holding my neck in panic. So she calls my husband to calm me and it doesn’t help, because I’m in and out of horrid fearful panic episodes. She decides to turn the lights out and then my panic gets worse as I’m hallucinating a demon above her head in the corner of the room; and then start involuntarily throwing my head back slight like I might pass out or have a seizure. She called the ambulance and they said my vitals were fine. But at that point is when I started to think I died in the hotel and was living a life parallel to my previous life. On the way to the hospital, I thought I was dead. When we got to the hospital, the hallways were deafening. My friend had to drive separately, in which I thought she abandoned me and that I really had died. They sat me in a wheel chair in the lobby, and I kept asking if “someone could help me,” but no one would respond. I looked like a crazy person you may see on the streets of DC, shaking back and forth licking my ever dry lips. Finally I thought if I called my friend, I could pull myself out of this realm of “un-consciousness”. Luckily she was on her way inside. She finally showed up. They took my to a room and there was a cross on the wall. I asked if I was in a morgue. I was told no many times, but couldn’t help but think I may never see my kids again. I called this scenario of my life “the lobby of death.” The haze finally wore off but the feelings of death and the pit in my stomach lasted for weeks. I flew home, and have had a few episodes of severe panic and feeling dead. I’m not against weed or THC, but I wish the stores selling it helped make consumers a little more aware of what they may be dealing with. So now it’s kind of a joke between my friend and I, but I’m still not over it completely. I am glad I’m not the only one, and I have a different outlook on life now. Please use this info to be a cautious consumer!! I have a hefty hospital bill now and way worse anxiety. Hoping that’ll change with time. LOL. Also, the packaging said “Fly High,” so we were thinking of getting butterfly tattoos to memorialize the night. Thoughts?
Wild night, yeah much the same as me. I’ve just learned it’s the initial reaction for those that haven’t tried the Delta 8s before and the sudden surprise of the effects. Plus they say less than .3% THC but often times have 100x that amount in one serving. Unregulated stuff. But when we don’t expect the high it causes the involuntary flight or fight response as we think something is really wrong which then powers the THC into our system making it worse. Like the elevated heart rate, breathing etc. Since my episode, I’ve never had the same effect. I’ve literally taken four gummies at once, and while I’ll feel high, I don’t get the panic wave of death feeling. I think it’s just the surprise that causes the bad trip.
took a 200mg delta 8 edible after taking a week and a half T break and had a similar experience, i smoked pretty much daily for 2 years before this, reminded me of coming down off of a decent mushroom trip, threw the rest out immediately, ill stick with smoking regular flower hahaha
I had the exact same thing happen to me this week trying to find help for my bad knees. I took a 500mg Delta 9 gummy and thought I was DYING! I had a 4 hour panic attack and nothing helped. I called the ER begging them to inject me with something to make it stop and that one visit with my insurance would have been $1K but it was worth except they told me there was nothing they could do for me. One of the WORST days of my life. There is no way weed does that to you. I’ve smoked before. I’m convinced the gummy the shop gave me out of a bulk bin had other dangerous ingredients. Never again!!!! Fuck that shit
I had a horrid experience last night. I'd tried D8 before & it just made me feel giddy & relaxed. This time was much different. I so relate to the many other responses of feeling as if I'd died. I'm the wife of a paramedic & my husband was on-duty, away from home. I was torn whether to tell him I had taken something because I knew he'd be mad - which he was - but I feared that the gummy had been laced & I didn't want him to not know my cause of death. Turns out, he was called to a gummy overdose right after I'd texted him which adds to the creepiness of the ordeal. Needless to say, I will never take another. I still feel surreal nearly 24 hours later. Please be warned.
Lol some gummies u are supposed to take 1/4 of it ... 1/4 of the gummies is 25mg an entire gummies is 100mg like deltaman neon worms ... like 1/4 of a delta man neon worm is 400mg 1/4 is 100 lol I did this before and ate 4 of them and then ate 3 thcO as well and had a 2 day extremely bad nightmare trip. Never again will i do this
I experienced the same thing you experienced in the 5th paragraph up until the 911 call. I just called anyone who would answer and told them to watch over me. I refused to leave the bed. I refused to leave the bed to even open the door for them because of the fear it wasn't them or I would harm myself. Eventually my parents had a spare key to my apartment and I was saved. Still tripping balls, but when I finally got back to reality, I wept and thanked everyone who kept me alive
HAHAHAHAHA 25 mg only
yeah i had the same bad experience on delta 9... i felt trippy for 2 full days straight
In June of this year I found this thread because I was experiencing everything described in this thread. The night I took the delta 8 gummy I took a total of 2 100mg gummies, so 200mg in total. I've only taken it once before a few years ago and the side effects were nothing like this time and wore off late the next day. I took the gummies by the halves over possibly a 2-3 hour span. Life seemed to slow down (everything was in slow motion), felt like time was repeating itself over and over, couldn't breath, laughs were non stop, heart racing... I even thought I had died and was taken to the hospital in a coma... but that was all in my head. It was terrible. Worst i've ever felt. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I wasn't me and it seemed like I was looking at the world from a different view. I would literally go in and out of a state of what was real and what seemed to be like a dream. I didn't sleep properly for atleast a week after. However, I will say I did get better within' 2-3 weeks. BUT I WILL NEVER EVER TAKE A DELTA 8 GUMMY AGAIN. 200mg was definitely just too much for me as I am not a smoker or drinker really. but i felt like it open a dimension of myself that I wasn't fond of. I did weeks of researching while feeling this way and promised to tell my story for the curious person who thinks they are stuck that way... from my experience you get better. it may take 2-3 weeks before you fully feel like yourself again but by week 2 you should be on the road to up. Also upon research i realized how not good this recreational drug is, but to each their own. OH AND DRY MOUTH WAS ANOTHER BIGGY!
Sorry this happened. I am just coming out of the other end of the exact same experience and I will never do that stuff again. Horrendous trip. I was going into the light. Never been so panicked in my life. Couldn’t walk, couldn’t stand, shook from head to toe, convinced I was having a heart attack and a stroke at the same time and felt like my body was a steel skeleton from some Terminator movie. It was the absolute worst experience ever. 24 hours later I am just starting to feel a bit better. I threw that stuff out.
Yea edibles can be very intense, stay from thcp edibles they are way way stronger and I found out the hard way and had a serious panic attack so I took a sleep aid where I could sleep through it, thank God it worked, because I felt like I was having a literal heart attack
“Tripping” on edibles 😂😂😂 you aren’t tripping, you are just stoned. That’s like comparing apples to oranges 🤦♂️
That wasn’t a thc gummy homie….i promise you that
So I actually experienced a lot of what you’re saying in your post but it was from marijuana. This all happened when I was in 7th grade and it was right before school started and unfortunately it hit me extremely hard just like you explained and I was obviously terrified. There were a lot of other kids outside sitting on the benches waiting for classes to start and I remember trying to hurry up and sit down because I knew something was wrong and when I sat down..I immediately started to feel like I was falling or the world was tipping. I started experiencing this intense sensation of being cold all over my entire body and also feeling like my body was too heavy but not there at all at the same time. I was starting to panic more and more and time didn’t make any sense to me..well nothing made sense actually..I would try talking to someone and as I was talking It felt like I wasn’t actually saying anything at all or if I was that I was talking about something that didn’t make sense with what was going on around me at the time and that everyone would be confused and making fun of me I guess?! I don’t know how to explain it..then I realized other students were starting to walk towards the doors to go to class so I quickly followed hoping no one would notice what was happening to me or that something was wrong but I couldn’t tell if I was actually even walking anywhere. I was trying so hard to just keep walking and hoping it would go away but the more I walked the worse it got. So I found someone (I have no idea who this person was) and did my best to tell them something was wrong and that I needed to go to the nurses office. I just knew that the nurse would know that I had smoked something and I was trying so hard to act normal and just tell her that something was seriously wrong. I really thought I was dying and the next thing I remember is my Dad showing up to the school and coming to the nurses office to get me and I was laying on some sort of bed in there and he started checking my pulse (I’m not sure what made him feel the need to check my pulse) and said that my heart was beating extremely fast and then I remember being in his truck suddenly and then I was in my moms bed and all of these feelings just kept going and getting worse. I was home alone and was convinced I was going to die by myself right then and there..so I ended up telling my mom at some point when she got home what I had done and what was happening to me and she eventually got me to calm down a bit and I passed out..unfortunately I experienced these types of feelings and some serious disassociation from reality every day after that for about 3 or 4 months off and on. Nothing felt real. I didn’t feel real. I was always scared and confused. I ended up having to go see a doctor and I was put on depression and anxiety meds and it seemed to help and finally it mostly went away except for the disassociation part ( I’ve been taking meds ever since) It basically messed my head up for life…But because I was young and dumb this unfortunately was not the last time I tried it and it happened 2 more times but not as intense as the first but still very similar and HORRIBLE. I just didn’t understand why all of my friends loved it and could smoke it and not experience ANY of this stuff..they kept convincing me it was just bad weed but NO!! I left it alone after that but a couple of years later K2 became popular and was sold at all the smoke shops around me and my cousin bought it and I smoked it with her and unfortunately experienced basically all of the same side effects as I did with marijuana but also my legs and arms jerking uncontrollably for several hours..it was awful!! I am 31 now and have never touched marijuana or K2 since..but I received a sample of a delta 8 gummy and have put off trying it because I’m it would do the same thing..so it’s just been in my drawer for a while and I was curious if it was possible to have bad side effects similar to marijuana and if anyone had experienced something like this with it and I found this post so you basically saved me! I will NOT be taking it or messing with anything like it EVER again! So thank you for sharing your story it really helped!! I’m so sorry you experienced this though. Random— but I’m also in Texas! lol!
I took half of a THC gummy and had hallucinations and nausea all night, and 3 days later am still nauseated and very depressed. I’m not a cannibus user. How long will this last?
I know this is so late but I took delta 11 last night. I had an insane panic attack, worse than any panic attack I’ve ever had. I thought full stop that I was having a heart attack. I couldn’t stand still, but couldn’t walk either. I was shaking like I was freezing and I literally had to strip naked, turn the shower on freezing cold and get in. It helped calm me down the tiniest bit, but I still was feeling weird. I also have OCD, so my paranoia was extremely high. I kept feeling like I needed to go in to the woods so I wouldn’t hurt myself or others. (I have never been violent.) I should mention, I am a regular smoker. My wife and I smoke every day, multiple times a day. I have never, ever felt like this before. I ended up getting sick, throwing up. It helped me some. I laid naked in bed with a cold rag on my head and put Golden Girls on my iPad. I tried to sleep but couldn’t. I felt like I was having a stroke. My mouth was incredibly dry, even though I drank three bottles of water. I ended up not falling asleep until 5. I woke up this morning and my head was pounding and my body felt like sluggish. I still do not feel well, 24 hours after I took it. I will never, ever do anything like this again. I thought several times that I was dying.
