(22,976 posts)Over-smoked, yes; shouldn't have had it on top of the booze, yes; "kicks like a mule," yes; but never once heard, "My weed is too strong!"
With all his vein-popping rages, I figure Alex Jones is flying on some chemistry that's a bit more heart-attack-y rather than respiratory-collaps-y.

i want to keep THC <20%, and avoid Sativa-dominant strains. even with Indicas, i prefer it down closer to 10-12%. high THC leads me to anxiety and unhealthy levels of introspection.
thank Christ i live in an enlightened state where i can find this level of specificity, and don't have to buy whatever comes down the pike.

No more for me since. Crippling anxiety. Room spins. Nausea.
Only booze since. And a gram of morphine once in the ER. Now that was good, nay great. No more narcotics for me.

(33,345 posts)find yourself some high-CBD weed, which typically has low- or no- THC. no anxiety, just help with aches & pains & nausea & appetite.

(2,955 posts)If you smoke too much before getting a good tolerance built up that can happen. It's commonly called 'greening out'. It happened to me way back when I was a novice cannabis smoker and it didn't cause me to quit. I just realized that I had to take it a bit slower and respect the herb.

eating chili probably does have an adverse effect as he flushes his brains down the toilet.

Normally I would feel sad to see a parent lose custody of their kids. But if we pitch in and keep him stocked with big bowls of chili he won't even remember he has kids.
