    Hello, so, I don't know if this is in the right subforum, and I frankly don't care too much about that because I've been searching for advice for a really long time and I guessed my only way to find out what really happened to me was in some forum like this, so.
     
    So here's the story:
     
    I did weed for the first time a couple of days ago, my homemade bong failed because I didn't have anything to use as a mouthpiece and buying one was out of the question, I wanted to try it then and there, so, against better reasoning, considering how unsanitary the whole weed collection business is, I ate a nug or segment of the weed, about the size of a big dime coin (yeah, not very helpful, I know), also, I live in Mexico so I've got no idea what strain of weed this is and whether it was laced with something or not (I'm guessing not since it's all green and smells like..green plants?).
     
    anyway, It didn't do anything for at least two hours, so I spent the rest of the night trying to figure out how to smoke it, decided to empty some cigarettes and use the paper to roll a joint or whatever, after fucking up many times, I ended up with two very small, very fucked up joints and tried them both, the first one didn't seem to do anything but burn my eyes, the second one kicked in after a few seconds...
     
    It all started out good, everything seemed to be a little slower, I felt like all my senses were magnified and I couldn't stop laughing and smiling at things, music was perfect, but suddenly after about 30 minutes in, I had this "slapping" feeling on the left side of my neck, which slowly started some sort of buzzing sound in my ear, which, in turn, caused a really painful headache on the left side of my neck/brain, basically, my cerebellum felt like it had a very hot spot surrounded by cold and pain every time the buzzing/vibrating noise on my ear happened, this slowly developed into poor coordination, cold and tremors, mostly on the left side of my body. My mouth and throat were extremely dry and I felt the impulse to drink to vomit levels, that was coincidentally the only way to stop the ringing, but it would come back after a few seconds.
     
    anyway, I threw up, went to the hospital, they didn't notice or say anything about weed since my eyes were normal and injected me something for an ear infection or whatever.
     
    after coming home and sleeping off for a good 8 or so hours, I woke up, still a little dizzy and feeling like shit, the buzzing and headache continued for at least 2 hours and I was scared that this was a stroke or a cranial hemorrhage since the effects of weed would've been long gone.
     
    so, does anyone have an explanation for this? did I fuck up? did I accidentally overdose by eating too much of it? maybe it could've actually been an infection but I doubt it, since this was hurting my fucking brain, if it helps, I don't drink or smoke and I'm under some medication.
     
    I want to try weed again, but I'm scared that I'll have another bad experience like the first one, any help?
     
    EDIT: I'm guessing it was indica, even though we grow sativa in here, the high seemed more similar to the effects of indica.

    When I didn't have anything to smoke with. I would just empty a cigarette and replace the tobbacco with weed. it was piss poor and burned super fast but it worked.
     
    The experience you had that ended you up in the hospital was what is called a panic attack. (if you were worried about anything in your life, weed will amplify that if you think about it too much triggering a panic response. Think of it as your body trying to seperate from the panic. PANIC ATTACKS ARE ALL IN YOUR HEAD meaning YOU CAN CONTROL THEM. If you feel that loud ringing start to come on. There are steps you can take to revert from the panic state,
     
    1. start to take deep breaths. Breathe in deep hold it for a bit then breath out through the nose
     
    2. tell yourself that everything is going to be alright, clear your mind of whats troubling you . In other words STOP THINKING!!
     
    3. occupy your self with something thats fun but not to stimulative which can send you back to panic (play some soothing music)
     
    4. Drink water it helps to keep you hydrated which helps with headaces.
     
     
    I hope this helps somewhat to answer your questions.

    Maybe the increase of sensory information overheated your brain..
    I know of myself that when I smoke my "reality filters" losen or are gone, which lets me see more than ever before, like a sharingan in naruto.

    I think you might have greened out man..it's when you overload your the receptors I believe. The best place to be when this happens is in your bed with an empty bucket beside you

    I used to just make tin foil pipes back in the day.
    as to what could of happened, this fourm isn't the right place to be. if YOU feel it could be anything like a stroke, time need to go back to the hospital and tell them what happened.

    As to an "overdose".. You can't overdose on Marijuana, nor can you eat it. I mean, you CAN eat it, but like you said, it will have no effects.

    all in all, I believe you should return to the hospital, and tell them everything that happened.

    better to be safe than sorry.
    good luck bro.

    @[member="Forked Up2"] u got me fucked
     
    but for real, thank you all for the suggestions, but I'm still a little confused towards what might have actually happened.
     
    I doubt it was a panic attack, since i was listening to calm music and generally relaxing until the shaking and cold took over.
     
    I don't think it was really a stroke, since I've made a full recovery and I didn't lose any ability or anything in specific and also I was fully conscious and able to think semi-properly while this happened, poorly balanced, if anything, not to mention that the doctors did check me up so I doubt it was that, I was just scared of that because the constant, hot spot kind of headache I felt on the left side of my cerebellum was really creeping me out, even then, I'm not sure I would tell anyone about it since I could probably get charged with consumption of illegal substances or whatever, and that'll fuck me up even more.
     
    as to whether or not THC can be absorbed by eating weed...it's a long annoying ass debate but I'm fairly sure it's not "heat activated" as a lot of people seem to think, but whatever.
     
    For now, I think I either greened out or got a shitty ass infection from eating that dirty shit.

    It is heat activated.

    never eat something you buy from a guy that grew it in his basement with lord knows what chemicals. that's common sense. and eating cannabis will not get you high at all, just a nasty taste in your mouth, an odd texture, and probably throwing up.

    I used to eat edibles pretty frequently but the last two times Ive had major panic attacks (dont get them when I smoke/vape), and those experiences were more unpleasant than anything I have ever experienced, so I havent had edibles in nearly a year. The last one felt like I was time warping because I was slipping in and out of consciousness but I was still doing shit (if that makes any sense). 
     
    I would never eat a straight nug, would puke right away. Just buy a roller for $10 bucks and smoke away  :smoke:
