Hookah Anyone?

It doesnt create the psychosis, but if you have the begin stages or building blocks it does help you get it... Beware Never heard about people hallusinating and I know a lot of people that smoke weed...

To be honest, I think you have to smoke A LOT, and it's probably certain strains.

Since Cannabis seems to be one of your good knowledge points, you must know all about the effect of paranoia. I've also experienced people lash out, throw up, and some other not pleasant scenes, due to intoxication of Cannabis. All of which, I would say, are somewhat worse than sleeping. Let's not forget in some cases some people can get schizophrenia. Which is just a bit worse than sleeping, let's say

If you do hallucinate on cannabis it will be CEV's (Closed Eye Visuals).
The one true case of full on hallucinations I know about was two guys, who where planning a party because they just harvested their plants, and they decided to make A LOT of space cakes, they used about 5 ounces in one big cake, and when you eat cannabis the liver reacts with the THC making it into another form (acts 3x more strongly on the brain). Anyways, they had to call the party off and had this space cake with effectively 15 ounces in. They decided to have a piece and got the munchies, and the only thing to eat was the cake.

Anyways, they had it all, about 7.5 ounces each in little over 6 hours, let me put it this way, 7.5 ounces would last most people about half a year or more, these guys started tripping, for 3 days.

So, ok, trips can be had, but it takes EXTREME circumstances to bring them on.

The paranoia doesn't effect everyone, just a few and that can be subsided. Throwing up is down to the blood sugar dropping, the guy simply smoked too much without getting more sugar into him. The guy lashing out, cannabis won't change your personality so that guy must just be a fool.

No one has ever developed schizophrenia through cannabis use. A mental health problem has to already be present in the person and cannabis may "bring it out".

If it does cause schizophrenia, then why has cannabis usage gone up over the last 30 years, and schizophrenia levels stayed roughly the same. Also, in holland, where it is tollerated, there schizophrenia levels are similar to the uk.

oh, and the people who swear they see goldfish and dragons....they must just be idiots, I've known people who have had a toke and start doing stupid stuff because they have just done a drug and seen what it should be like in movies, so they put it on.

People sure do know there drugs :P

lol, it's better to know the truth from scientific studies/papers then just be fed the lies and propaganda of the newspapers/government.

Or... Just don't take em!

you don't have to take drugs to know about them.

There are loads of drugs I havn't taken and now a fair amount about.
I'm not a quantum scientist but I know a small amount about quantum physics.

Haha that's hilarious! They must have been screwed!

And thanks for shedding some light on Cannabis use.

So, that hookah

Had a lot of it last summer, hopefully more will be had this summer when I'm back home!
