I was hospitalized with a similar condition called Canabanoidosis. Nearly died. Took 8 iv bags, other medicine, and 3 days of bedrest to survive. Ironically, its chronic. So no more of beelzabubs broccoli for me. The ratio of thc to blood in my blood was so wack that my blood became too acidic. Spasming and vomiting in response to water even touching my mouth. Very nearly died.

Forgive me for asking, but… how?? The LD50 for cannabis is 980 mg/kg. For an adult weighing 180 lbs / 81 kgs, that would require nearly 1.62 kg of straight THC to the veins.
I mean, that’s the LD50 for THC. But for it to actually change your blood acidity, you must have had to take an insane amount. Was it an industrial exposure?

Well, I had been smoking almost all day every day for a decade, the last year I was hitting dab at least 3 times per day. The weekend of the incident, i ate an early breakfast, drove for 6 hours, then went backcountry camping with what I thought was enough food/water (I was wrong) and a too much thc. Went all day with very little food/water, hitting a 2g vape every few minutes and walked around 17 miles. Then my friend drove us the 6 hour drive home, about an hour later I got a ride to the hospital, I usually drive myself to the hospital but I could barely move. I dont mess with that stuff or anything else anymore. Being clean feels better anyway.

It wasn’t the cannabis. It was “Went all day with very little food/water” 99%.
What you describe as your daily dose I’ve literally eaten for breakfast and then doubled the dose a few hours later, then ate even more. Jelly, not chocolates or complex edibles. And I made them into a drink first for quicker absorption.
I also smoked 3-5g daily during that.
It’s not the cannabis.

A lil’ dab’ll do ya.
The nice thing about flower and marijuana in general is that it is/was rarely refined or broken down to concentrations that you see with things like the coca leaf into cocaine.
Even hash was just a plant matter removal more than chemically concentrating like you see with some of those vape serums.
Like, I love me some coffee and tea, but I’m not fucking with any caffeine pills.
But I digress, glad you’re doing well nonetheless.

Jesus fucking christ dude, I’d say you have a problem. I guess that’s one way to get off.

Had* and it wasnt addiction. I decided to stop and imidiately stopped. Its been years. My life was boring, empty, and depressing, I used the green to mask the void. But now I have filled it with substance, meaning, and purpose.

Great resource link! I poached it get the LD50 for delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol which is the psychoactive property the plant has been bred for. That number is actually higher at 1270 mg/kg.
And as you stated, it would have to be 100% purity concentrate in a vein.
That’s why cannabis fear mongering is utter nonsense. Yes, there can be seriously deleterious effects for heavy, chronic users. But unless you’re really trying, a toxic dose is almost impossible.

You’re right to be skeptical, this is bullshit
