I think I'm allergic to marijuana smoke....

[MiniMandaRuth]

Apparently, someone (Don't know if it was a boy or girl) was busted yesterday in the girls 8'th grade bathroom. I haven't learned all the details, but the teachers are acknowledging that someone was arrested. Well, taken into detention by office officials.... if that makes any sense...

I went into the bathroom and noticed an unusual smell... I did my business and washed my hands, when my eyes started to water really badly. I walked out and everyone in my next class said my eyes were red and teary...

Weird.... might just be that I was disgusted with the whole thing, or some chemicals...

[Crazy Guggenheim]

1. Some people are allergic. That stuff isn't perfect.

:popcorn:

[MiniMandaRuth]

2. Man.... I had a headache for quite a while after that.... it sucked....

Oh well, at least my mom can take comfort in the fact that she'll know if I've been doing it...

[bigwillq]

3. Only one way to officially find out!

:P

[DS1]

4. I don't think a person can be allergic to smoke, I think things need to

have proteins in them in order for them to be allergens.

So, you might be sensitive to smoke, but not allergic.

[MiniMandaRuth]

5. Interesting...

[Radical Activist]

23. I'm not buying that

My doctor says I'm allergic to cigarette smoke and I can tell. I'm also affected by smoke from leaves and plants that I'm allergic to.

[DS1]

31. You're sensitive to it

but allergens are reactions to proteins.

Google it.

[IronLionZion]

6. It could be cleaning materials too

oh man, after they clean the damn bathrooms in my college dorm my eyes would water and get all red and stuff. People who saw me must have thought I was on something...

[MiniMandaRuth]

7. That's what i thought....

[havocmom]

8. Spent my 4 years in high school not peeing all day

The pot haze made me violently ill and there was no way to avoid it but to not void.

Long walk home every day too...

[Ravenseye]

9. I'm allergic to marijuana smoke also

Every time i'm exposed to it I have all sorts of weird reactions. I can't focus as well. I giggle alot. I get really hungry. It's weird.

[carpetbagger]

12. Let me guess, you had to hit the Visine as well.

Damn allergies.

[Ravenseye]

14. Yes!

My eyes got all bloodshot...and it affected my memory also...oh and I got paranoid. Really paranoid, like everyone could tell and knew that I had an allergy.

[meow2u3]

33. I used to be allergic to weed smoke

But it just might have been certain kinds of weed that watered my eyes and constricted my lungs. This was about 14 years ago, and some allergies are temporary.

[0007]

10. Bummer

[JVS]

11. yeah, bummer

[leftofthedial]

13. I had to give it up due to allergy

It made my eyes all red and made feel really weird. I also found it would cause me to eat all sorts of stuff, whether I really liked it or not.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

15. I'm gonna see if I'm allergic to it right now.

I suspect I'll be getting some sort of bizarre reaction to it within about ten minutes or so.

[SurfRidem]

16. You've never been around weed before...?

[MiniMandaRuth]

17. I think I might of been, but not in a closed area. The

bathroom is about... the size of an SUV....

[SurfRidem]

18. I see. Well I hope you are not allergic to it, because you may want

to try it some day. (Maybe not)

If I ever became allergic to it, I do believe I would depart this life.

(Just kidding):)

[mdmc]

20. Welcome to DU, SurfRidem!

I just did a bong hit in your honor!

Peace!

[yellowdogmi]

35. You guys are making me jealous

May the choicest come your way!

[mdmc]

38. peace!

[mdmc]

39. peace!

[mydreamcametrue]

40. They're everywhere...!!!

[mdmc]

19. I smoke pot everyday, your really not going to miss anything

really.

I would try it sometime after you turn 18, if I were you. Sometimes allergies change. Peace,
mdmc

21. Consider yourself lucky...

You don't need that stuff. If you never smoke it, you'll be much better off.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

26. I disagree.

:evilgrin:

[SurfRidem]

37. Suit yourself, Merv.

Everybody's got an opinion.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

22. Are you sensitive to smoke from other sources?

i.e., tobacco, candles, fireplaces, brushfires, bonfires? If not then you probably are sensitive (not necessarily allergic) to marijuana. The only way to be certain is if you are tested. It doesn't sound as though you are inclined to use this substance, but nevertheless, I would advise against it until you have been cleared of any allergies.

[MiniMandaRuth]

25. Nope. I frequently have candles and incsence burning,

and fires are common here....

[Blue-Jay]

24. Not liking /= allergic

[sundog]

28. clearly the correct answer

[driver8]

27. My eyes used to get red when I was around marijuana smoke...

but I always seemed to have Visine with me.

[Redstone]

29. I don't care for it either. Anyone is welcome to smoke dope at my house

if they want to, but it has to be outside.

[Ariana Celeste]

30. Ouch.

I'm sorry. :hi:

[SW FL Dem]

32. Me too!

I learned that in college, I have an asthmatic attack. At least I can honestly say I never inhaled.

[jobycom]

34. Stuff always gave me headaches and nausea. That's another reason

I never touched the stuff. You can be allergic to it, from what I understand. If so, be happy. Useless crap. Stinks, too.
