Flashback trip urgent help..

Hey guys I attended a festival early this year and I was under the influence of Alcohol. I swore to myself that I would never do drugs, but being drunk changed that.. I ended up smoking Marijuana with a few people..
I went "green" or "white" as i was told, and i was in my tent and no one was there to comfort me.
Strange stuff happened..
A few weeks after that i was fine, until i had a cigarette outside late at night when it was cold.
Now all them things replay that night - being outdoors, smoking, being cold et cetera..
I was hit by the oncoming of a trip..
I panicked a bit and went inside (not even finishing my cig) and made a cup of tea and ate some bread (as bread soaks up alcohol - i wondered if it would do the same and soak up the chemicals in the cig!!)
later that night, i came out in fever's and began to sweat maddly.
I was dizzy and was under constant nausia..
i soon over came that after being bed bound for 2 weeks.
Now whenever i eat too much food i feel sick, im dizzy very easily, my heart beats really fast and makes my head spin.. At nighttime i get a kaleidoscope effect every so often that i HAVE TO open my eyes to make it stop.
I get little flecks of white light infront of me sometimes (a sign of high blood pressure) and I just feel like shit recently..

I want to ask you guys seeing as you guys are the experts, ive confided in my doctor and im still awaiting blood test reports to see if it could be high blood pressure, Diabetes et cetera.

Please can you try and help me stop these flashbacks because they are ruining my health and life - and my mentality..


P.s. I understand that it is rare that flashbacks occur when smoking bud, and most common in LSD - but I am 100% sure that I did not take any other narcotics other then Weed.

Thanks for your time and I hope for a swift reply!

 

You sure there was nothing else in the weed?

 

Your joking right?

Of course being drunk changed your oath to never do drugs, news flash for ya, alcohol IS A DRUG! Probably one of the most damaging and detrimental things you can put into your body.

Uhhm.
Too much alcohol?
the flu?
Anxiety disorder?

But highly unlikely from marijuana.

You sure your not just a :troll:

(I don't like the idea of using quotes for a sig, but that one sure is a doosy and has me thinking about a new sig)

 

That really dosent sound like something that would happen from weed. Unless it was laced.
Do you have anxiety? Or any psych conditions?
Ive seen people have a bad experience with something, then have a similar reaction. Usually they have some kinda problem with anxiety or ptsd that brings it on.

 

Dont worry im not a troll..
And it may have been laced, but my friends coped fine :S
I have no issues with anxiety that ive been told by the doctor and nothing has been this elusive in my life - hence why I am wanting advice/help.
As opposed to Smith, I meant psychodellic drugs, because a friend of mine died a few years ago from an overdose of LSD.
As far as im aware, the stuff we smoked was "fine" as far as weed goes - but then again it was bought at the festival.
Despite this, the ongoing psychological effects are continuing, is it just going to take a few months to get out of my system fully?

 

I would stay away from the drinking and smoking, and see how you do

 

:smilielol5:

LSD is one of the safest things you can put in your body and their has only been one suspected OD from it since it was first synthesized, and that guy took an estimated 3,250 doses worth. Aspirin is more toxic.

If you smoked a 1 joint, it's already out of your system.

Come on now, your just having a laugh aren't you.

 

the thc itself is probably long gone if you havent continued to smoke.

my vote goes for oxygen deprivation, and involuntary self preservation. you smoked a cig, which decreased your O2, can make you dizzy, nauseous, drop blood pressure (like standing up too fast) but i bet your mind just brought up the last time you felt that way, or the most severe time with a vivid memory attached (i get a little woozy fairly often when i stand up, and generally its not memorable unless i have to 'fix' it, laying on the floor, having something to eat, etc.) your body was worried you would pass out, so it tried to deter you with a memory of what could happen. the body is an amazing thing. i dont think it was a flashback, more just a vivid memory. in thinking it to be a flashback you probably instigated a mild panic attack.
bread wouldn't do anything to something you took months ago, and it sure wouldn't absorb cig chemicals, unless you ate the thing. (gross). but, if you hadn't eaten much prior to your cig then that could have contributed to the woozy nausea feeling. i always get nauseous when i havent eaten, which is a pain in the ass, and counterproductive.

i recommend you quit smoking cigarettes. they are really not good for you, and it is entirely possible to quit. my hubby gets drunk and forgets he quit smoking. he feels like ha has to prove he can have 1 without being hooked again. he feels like crap for days afterward, hes such an idiot sometimes. but he hasnt picked it up again, and i used to smoke, and quit with relative ease (until my son died, then i started again for awhile and quit again with ease. helped that the price went up so much, i couldnt justify spending the money.) the shits bad for you.
i hope you feel better, but try to listen to your body. your body will try to protect itself, you just have to recognize it.

 

I find it quite annoying that you are humoring yourself over something that I am genuinely worried about..
Because of my Lack of knowledge of drugs and uses, you decide to mock me?
You sir, are infact the troll.
The reason i came to this site was because i googled "Flashback trip solution"
and this site came up with an alternate post which was describing someone LSD trip.
I have contacted psychiatrists and they have all said the same thing, "just relax"
and whenever I do, i feel like im going to trip again, I become paranoid, i get odd heart palpitations..

Im not trying to have you on, guys, im just worried about my health.

 

It's all in your head, pussy.

 

Thanks for that, it made sense and what not, but the issue is still occuring.
Ive stopped smoking around 2 weeks ago and didnt drink once after that night.
The moment ANYTHING associated with that event just brings all these feelings back and thats my concern - how am i meant to live my life without a certain song that was played there, or certain foods that were eaten in the process?

 

anyone with a small (especially all in the same thread) number of posts is subject to being accused of being a troll. we get a lot of them here, it is an EXTENSIVE forum. to call a regular a troll is just ignorant on your part.

"In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into a desired emotional response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion" from wiki

it has also come to mean just wasting people's time on a post that has no meaning. i generally answer the post first. benefit of the doubt and all.

 

if the feelings that strong, then it is in your head. try to figure out what your body is telling you. or accept the memories, stop tryiong to obliterate them. we are the sum of our experiences. did the event happen? yes. so it cannot be changed. accept it for what it was, whether that be a fun time, or a bad experience. when you are reminded of it, think about how it came about. use the memory to remind yourself of why drinking is bad, smoking is bad etc. if the memory is enough to be a detriment to your every day, then the problem is probably psychological. dont bother with shrinks. you can pay someone to listen, but you can't make them care.

 

Thanks for that, I understand that shrinks do not always help.
And if it is psychological, what would you suggest is the best course of action?
I know someone who focuses on such things and he has said that he can "remove" the feeling of the event but not remove the memory using my "brain buttons"
I have also considered Meditation?

 

stop THINKING about it and continue on with your life. By you sitting on this site and THINKING/posting/arguing about it, you are actually working yourself into a deeper hole than you already THINK you are in.

see?

 

meditation would be good, but it might exacerbate the problem too. tell your regular doc (you said you were getting tests done) all about what happened, and what you are still experiencing, because you should not be experiencing it as a result of smoking weed or drinking.
you have to accept the past and move on. cant change it, so move on, look forward. if nothing else the further you get from the event the less strong the memory ought to be.
how healthy are you otherwise? do you exercise? how old are you anyway? these things can affect you in a lot of ways.
and there are no buttons in your brain. you can handle this on your own. intrusive memories can suck (i relive finding my sons lifeless body, try that on for size eh?) but you have to accept them to cope with them. identify what brings them on, and analyze why. ignoring it to move on just makes it a surprise every time the memory intrudes, and thats not coping. if you know what brings them on, you can avoid those things until the memory is more distant.

 

psychedelic!!!!

 

no he didn't...because it isn't possible unless he took grams and grams of fluff which i highly doubt he had access to.

 

Mother's love, that is why i gave meditation a pass, as i thought that if i solely focus on a "happy place" then i may become diverted by the bad thoughts and have permanent damage.

As for telling my doc, i want to save that until he says he has or hasn't found something in my blood, it could be high blood pressure and such, but im almost certain it aint. Im 17, healthy, used to do a lot of sport, quit smoking, quit drinking.. May even be withdrawal symptoms?
And as for your kid, im ever so sorry

 

This obviously has nothing to do with drugs, this person is having panic attacks brought on by association or is either going through a brief spell of psychosis.

If its neither of the above its total BS if you ask me.
