    you're either making that up, or you have some condition that you're not aware of. Weed has a pain relieving affect on the body, not the other way around.

    it must have been another drug you took.

    anyway,

    Whiteys are from weed only.
    Greens are from when you get sick from too much of booze AND weed.

    and for all the anti-weed brigade out there, it doesnt happen often, and only if you're an idiot.
    So because somebody has a different experience of cannabis use to you, that doesn't conform to your perfect view of the drug, that makes them either

    a) a liar
    or
    b) ignorant, because OBVIOUSLY it must have been something else that caused it.

    Cannabis may have anti-nausea properties for most individuals, that doesn't mean that nausea won't be a side effect for a few.

    Many drugs cause differing effects from person to person. Take a look at the list of side-effects for any OTC medication. Doesn't mean that everybody (or even most) will suffer any or all of these but some people will. Not because they are "idiots"

    yeah yeah yeah,

    but the main point is, you probably wouldnt get the whites OR the greens if you didnt have alcohol before, during or after toking. simples. hence the "idiots" comment.

    You can pull whiteys from cigarettes too. I done plenty of times and mates aswell, thats why I don't smoke.

    This. I will always remember when I was new to smoking (cigarettes at the time). I used to go through 7-8 over the course of a night out drinking. Well one night I was smoking more than usual as it was a sunny evening and we were drinking and smoking in the sun.

    I had smoked six fags already with gaps between each fag but now I had started chain smoking (as I had a full pack) and was smoking my third or fourth fag in a row with no gaps between them if thats makes sense. Anyway I was lighting a fag when I blacked out and fainted.

    The fall woke me up again (was sitting anyway so wasn't a big fall thankfully) and as I stood up I felt as weak as a kitten and my mates said I was like a ghost. Felt dodgey and so went to the jacks and got sick. Wasn't too pleasant at all and when I came back I got a bit of slagging and they said it was too many fags that did it. Learned the importance of pacing that night.

    Only passed out the once. In college i'd been smoking a while but never a session mostly a couple of spliffs in my room siting by the laptop. I was in a house with a few lads from my course. All arty/hippy types who were heavy duty tokers so it was a bit over my head. three or four in rotation at once. watching family guy and passing the guitar around. all going well feeling great and then suddenly everything went hazy and all that was going through my head was "bathroom, NOW!" Made my excuses and headed to the jacks, couldn't find the lightswitch, collapsed; In the darkness of the room and the clouds in my head I was too disorientated to get up, fell a few more times. Finally got seated and then i wake up a half hour later with the sound of one of the guys coming into the bedroom the jacks was attached too. They were all so stoned they hadn't even realised i'd been gone. Frightened the proverbial out of your man as i stumbled out of his bathroom in the darkness.

    Drink and smoke is a risky one, never knocks me out but i'll more than likely puke if the volume of either is high enough.

    Tolerance is so high to smoke now that I can't even get to whitey levels anymore, shame, those were the days

    What people keep describing, sounds to me as if it's a vasovagal episode.
    I've had them from smoking joints, but also for different reasons which have nothing to do with drugs. Basically, it is a panic attack.
    It talks about fainting in that link, but it does not always necessarily lead to fainting.

    I read the thread title as "Pulling a Whitney". Which sounds like a euphemism for a nasty bath time incident.
