Why do I throw up after smoking weed?

Submitted ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩ by ⁨EABOD25@lemm.ee⁩ to ⁨[deleted]⁩

So I was a daily smoker and then I would take a rip, and immediately throw up. It would subside after a few hours and I was good for the rest of the day, but I thought it was weird so I stopped smoking for a couple of months, and figured I’d be OK smoking again this weekend. I took 2 hits, and immediately needed to throw up. They were monster hits nor did I get enough to even make me cough, but as soon as I took the second hit, I had to expell everything. Can someone please give me clarification on what is possibly going on?

While CHS is the likely culprit, it could also be an allergy that’s built up over time. Most people don’t realize it’s possible to be allergic to cannabis, but it is indeed. Source: I’m allergic to cannabis.

If so, look into desensitization methods. Not sure if they work with an acquired allergy or not though.

It’s your body telling you weed is lame, do cool drugs instead.

It might be similar cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, though that’s usually accompanied with nausea that goes away in a hot shower.

  It’s so random how that happens to some people and not others. Or happens once and never happens again.

    My GF has it real bad if she smokes too much, meanwhile I can smoke 3x as much and be fine.
    
    Pro tip: If you’ve got this and can’t stand it, ask for some haloperidol. It calms down the nerve that’s making you nauseous.

  It is most likely this. OP is one of the unfortunate people that just cannot use marijuana safely due to his biology. If you have cannabinoid hyperemesis, best to stay away from weed because the constant nausea/vomiting can lead to unintentional weight loss and a lot of other physical problems that are no fun.

You swallowed smoke.

  100% this. OP try to tense your stomach while you inhale to force air into your chest instead. I had the same issue when I stopped smoking for a while.

    I sometimes swallow a bit of smoke and get really annoyed by it bc I will feel like I need to burp but be unable to. I will try this next time, thanks.

  That’s what I was thinking too, but it’s just weird

What about edibles or drops? You could differentiate if it’s because of the smoking or weed in general.

  That’s a good idea. Might help some other people, but I bought a J to use through the weekend while the wife is out. Pretty sure it’s CHS and karma haha

Sounds like CHS.

  Dammit. That’s not cool. The wife is out of town for the weekend, so I figured I could get lit. That sucks

it could be a side effect of some medication

I had that, it was a combo of too much build up in my system, and the particular stain.

I got healthy for a bit then I was fine (not much of that strain left, so I pul it on the bottom of the pile).

Suggest returning to an different favourite or one you like and know well. But listen to your body - when it says stop you stop. If it’s saying quit, then you don’t have much choice.

Have you tried vaping? I get the vomiting reaction when smoking, but not vaping.

Coughing and/or smoking can dry out your uvula and make you heave. Happens to me sometimes when I smoke right after eating too much.
