This might be a strange question, bud does anyone else ever get a “blinding” effect sometimes when smoking? This happened to me 3 or 4 times at different times of my life. It only happened when my tolerance was at 0 and the weed was strong. I don’t know if it’s blindness or just narrowing my field of vision or what.
It happened to me the first time i smoked, but also for example in college (one being the time i tried chemdog and hadn’t smoked more than 5 times in my life).
Let me know if you have had this effect. I’m just wondering if it’s common.
Haven’t exactly had blindness but been having a weird thing happening for awhile now. When I cough really hard I like half pass out. I can still move on instinct and continue to do what I was already doing but my sight goes dark, I see stars shooting and I lose equilibrium a bit. Kinda scary but not passed out fully. Been going on a 6 months to a year now.
Could be. Just started going to the doctor a couple weeks ago. Think my blood pressure was slightly high then. Dunno. Used to freak me out, but im kinda used to it now.
I go back in about a month. Right now he wanted to focus on my sleep. Got a referral to get checked for sleep apnea. Always tired, sleep more than enough. Had a couple other issues I brought up and he said one at a time. Kinda irritated me. Seems like he’s trying to milk the insurance.
i had to go through that last year. terrible experience and i only lasted 2 months before giving up on it. i hated the masks and it just wasn’t worth it to me.
I had this happen. High blood pressure caused it. I’d almost pass out every dab or hit I took just like you described. Got on meds. Boom gone. Then lost weight got on a healthy diet, and now no more pills or passing out
That sounds like oxygen deprecation and not a good thing…
You need to get that looked at ASAP.
That might be signs of COPD or something along those lines. Six months is another concern… get it looked at…
This is what I’m worried about. Wife is tired of me always napping and sleeping late though, so I gotta give it a go.
Thanks for the tip. I’ll try to bring it up at my next visit. Hopefully he’s more receptive to dealing with things. Wife and I have been trying to eat better and walk every day. We’ve both put on some weight. I’m pushing 240 right now and iirc I’m supposed to be 160-180.
@Gpaw and @GCBudz, I’ll bring that up as a possibility. I’ve had lung problems in the past and was a 2 pack a day smoker for about 10 years then vaped heavily for about 7. Already been diagnosed with chronic bronchitis.
Man I was maxed at 275 a while ago. I’m 190 now. It took a lot. But I got there, and just eating healthy. No particular diet. Also every other night hit the weights. You can do it. I feel so much better now…you won’t regret that hard work.
i would wake up in a panic struggling to rip the mask off my face. and that was with the nose attachment. the regular one was a nightmare. strangely enough i was able to sleep on my back which i never could before , but with the mask it was my only option. instead of waking up drained and exhausted i would wake up really tired. but in the end it just wasn’t worth it for me
Yet another reason this place is absolutely awesome and unique. What other cannabis forum are you gonna see others actually giving a shite about others like this, nevermind so many ! Much respect to all of you guys and I agree wholeheartedly with the rest that you should definitely get this taken care of asap as my stepfather had emphysema which started as copd and eventually took his life. Mad love for everyone here
that’s no easy feat.
