Does that akinetopsia* ever come with any other physiological effects, like a slowed or rapid heart rate, dizziness, feeling feint, anything like that? Or just the visual aspect?
I had a similar experience once, then suddenly passed out (only time in my life), after being given a “THC” vape at a party. I’ve never had interest in Delta 9 or any other processed THC and that experience made me extra weary.
No, but I could see how that can happen with vaping. I tried a vape like 1-2 times and both times I hated it. I was coughing like crazy and didn’t understand how you were supposed to be able to do that and not feel like your throat and lungs are on fire. Even if it was a technique issue, it seemed like a very unhealthy way to consume such a drug. So I only was interested in trying edibles from there.
Both the anoxic effect from inhaling a substance that isn’t oxygen and the more rapid onset of how you feel the effects of vaping can cause lightheadedness and for some people to pass out iirc.
You might like to try either an edible or one of those canned weed drinks. But the unfortunate downside with them is that the effect takes a LONG time to kick in, and it’s easy to accidentally dose too high before that. So it’s better to start slow (look at the recommended dose and HALF that), and then add more.
What the hell was in your vape… I’d be scared that there was something nastier than just THC in there.
Anyway, on the topic of weed consumption, I’ve had really good fun with a “herb vaporiser” from a friend. It’s like smoking, but without the coughing and without most of the lung cancer, it tastes super mild, and you can really nicely control the dosage.
What do you mean what was in my vape? Have you never seen someone try a vape or cig or something for the first time? Inhaling anything into your lungs is a fucking godawful experience the first time or several times you do it.
Like I said, I’m sure it’s both a technique issue combined with tolerance. But the experience is way too unpleasant for me to want to experiment with.
A cigarette is mostly smoke and semi-burned bullshit. A vape should just be water vapour with additives, really. It should not have that effect, unless someone did something pretty stupid, right?
Water vapour with additives can definitely cause you to cough if you inhale it into your throat and lungs. I understand the effect to the lungs is absolutely nowhere near cigarette smoking, but it is still absolutely something that can and does cause people to cough. I’ve witnessed this effect on others trying it their first time too. No, they were not all the same vape.
