    Do you hear things, like schizophrenics, when smoking cannabis? I've been told you see things that aren't there.

    I did one time, in Amsterdam. I put my hand in my head and then thought there were bugs all over my hand (there weren't).

    It's weird though because it shouldn't be hallucinagenic.

    I was a heavy enough smoker also once upon a time so wasn't larrylightweightness.

    Have never heard sounds that aren't there. However sometimes music, etc can take on an extra quality.

    Have never had halucinations, however sometimes it's possible to find designs in otherwise normal objects. I remember someone who thought they could see a face in the shadows of a blanket on a chair :pac: too funny.

    I've never had hallucinations, but things can look and sound a bit abnormal. I actually think I perceive things more distinctly when smoking.

    For instance, my mate has full-on surround sound (ie speakers behind you as well). When I sober, I don't really notice, if I'm high I can tell where the different sounds are coming from much more clearly.

    Even things like watching a football match, I can actually pick out plays and openings better when I've smoked.

    Now I should note I generally smoke like I drink - a bit to maintain a nice buzz, not to get wasted.

    The first time I ate it I imagined that my brain had come loose and was rolling around inside my skull. It wasn't scary though. Since that, no.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,006 ✭✭✭Ann22


    I met a girl who ate hash cakes, she had a terrible night full of hallucinations. Her parents didn't know wtf was wrong with her.

    Smoke enough cannabis and you will hear voices.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,013 ✭✭✭Scarydoll


    Duuude!




    To answer your question. That would be a no.

    I've had aural hallucinations, I hear music and whispers sometimes, in the same way you get when you're just about to fall asleep and you're half dreaming. Spent a lot of time trying to transcribe the music but generally the instruments don't exist :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,662 ✭✭✭RMD


    I've never had hallucinations from it.

    A guy I know did have a very bad reaction to it the only time he smoked it, went white as a sheet and said he was hearing ****, said a tree stump was talking to him. This wasn't bad / laced weed either as I and another guy had split it with him, and we experienced nothing abnormal.

    If the weed was laced with other stuff, hallucinations are possible.

    Elaborate?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,670 ✭✭✭✭Wolfe Tone


    Yes lets all discuss our illegal drug habits.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,787 ✭✭✭✭ScumLord


    Never heard anything that's not there but I do seem to get super hearing.

    I moved house recently and spent ages messing with settings of my speakers thinking there was something wrong with it as it didn't sound right. Conflusterd I sat down and had a spliff, stuck on some music and soon found the problem had been fixed.

    I just assumed it was God.

    Any mind altering substance has the potential to do those things. It's down to the individual as to whether or not they experience it. Some people get very anxious after smoking cannabis, only a small minority.. but it happens.

    What makes them like that isn't exclusively down to the drug, but to do with their own minds and imaginations.

    Not elaborate at all . Smoke enough dope and you will hear voices.

    Dope doesn't make you deaf.

    Dear Jaaaaaaaaaysus, I hear ya.

    I took one of those before when my sister put her back out, didn't have a valium style affect as I'd hoped (it's not an opiate so no wonder). Instead my brain decided to try and attack me and not let me sleep. There was fire, mangled babies, shadows standing over me .... *shudder*

    Next day I said it to my sister and she'd been seeing burning faces and kept seeing someone hiding behind her wardrobe peering around at her.

    Horrendous stuff


    Weed's never made me see or hear anything though

    Once saw loads of crazy looking people with the maddest voices, talking loads of unitelligible 5hit and thought I had truly lost my mind....


    ....but then I realised it was ok I was just in Cork

    Anyone that has smoked enough dope will probably have thrown a "whitener" at some stage or other . Too much skunk used to blow my brain.

    One of my mates is still convinced that he was abducted by aliens when driving his motorbike home one night after a particularly heavy session on the ould bong.

    No he says they were playing Moby

    Unfortunately, despite ensuring to wear my best Austin Powers chick "threads" for the ritual, I have yet to have that experience of finding myself in a flying psychedelic bus surrounded by the Beatles in their Sergeant Pepper gear and some dude with a zither, while smoke spells out "peace" and "love" in the multi-coloured sky... :(
