According to defitinion, you CAN trip off weed (Read before posting). - General

I've seen loads of people flame/get flamed for describing their cannabis experience as "a trip", I've had it pushed in my head that NO, you cannot trip off weed. Today I saw a post saying "I wanted to get high and trip again", this sounded really stupid and inaccurate. So I was going to post about it. I remembered, though, that it's equally stupid to post an argument without the necessary research, so I went to the internet! Here are photographs and journal entries of my journey: [quote] [b]1)[/b] - Here's me on my travels shortly after leaving home.

Psychedelic states are one of the stations on the spectrum of experiences elicited by sensory deprivation as well as by psychedelic substances. On that same spectrum will be found illusions, changes of perception, altered states of awareness, but there are many common themes, and ranges from a sense of connectedness to everything in the immediate vicinity, to a sense of oneness with everything in the universe. Potentially, the range of the drug-induced psychedelic experience goes far beyond drugs."

I think its because when people normally say trip they are exaggerating thats why people get annoyed.

I think when people thinking of a trip, they think like trippin balls

Trippin balls on paranoia.

You lost your friends for nothing, I knew this the whole time.

-Nevermind :v:-

[QUOTE=Kyle v2;29723765]Your welcome. No. The way you posted it is still stupid. You failed. cool story bro[/QUOTE] haha, anubis style

Damn straight. :c00lbert: [editline]9th May 2011[/editline] In all seriousness, I didn't mean to be rude, that's why I constantly edit my posts.

I don't know about you guys, but I go into an altered state which I consider a "trip" every time I smoke weed. maybe I'm just weird

[QUOTE=Kyle v2;29723837]In all seriousness, I didn't mean to be rude, that's why I constantly edit my posts.[/QUOTE] Don't worry about it, man. I've got a huge history of posting flames/trolls/shit like that and then changing it. :v: :respek:

[quote]Being clearly thrust into outer-space at extreme speed.[/quote] This happened to me quite a few times when I saw Thor high.

To be fair anything that messes with your senses can make you trip because in essence it's just to experience something that isn't there.

[QUOTE=nigfops;29723926]I don't know about you guys, but I go into an altered state which I consider a "trip" every time I smoke weed. maybe I'm just weird[/QUOTE] It's called being high.

Why are you quoting things on Wikipedia and making threads about it

[QUOTE='[Jake];29727003']Why are you quoting things on Wikipedia and making threads about it[/QUOTE] Be quiet, you don't even come to DD.

I reach level 1 or 2 regularly with nothing but weed. I remember one time though we made some extremely potent brownies and smoked a few grams in one day. I think I hit a dream like [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychedelic_experience#Level_3]level 3[/url] state. When I get high as fuck everything seems warped and there are patterns everywhere. Sometimes I have CEVs and frequent moments of eternity. Extremely altered perceptions, in short. Level 3 is extremely rare for me though. It's hard as shit for me to walk normally, being a clumsy ass. When I'm even a bit buzzed I just look drunk as shit. Kind of nice being a lightweight to everything.

I think this is a case of "Technically it's this, but everyone agrees it's not/shouldn't be referred to as"

[QUOTE=AbysalRush;29729412]I think this is a case of "Technically it's this, but everyone agrees it's not/shouldn't be referred to as"[/QUOTE] I concur with this.

TRIPPIN BALLS AS FUCK ON WEED NEEEEEDLEEEEEES

Shoot bong water erry day, I don't give a [b]FUCK[/b] :c00lbert:

[QUOTE=Cypher_09;29728430]Be quiet, you don't even come to DD.[/QUOTE] I can express my opinion and i believe i did come to DD

I hallucinate quite a bit on pot. I got psychologically profiled because I was worried about it being indicative of schizophrenia and the psychiatrist said that some people are simply more psychoactive than others, and react with mild hallucination when drunk, high, or tired. I generally experience perceptual distortions, and wavering text. When I am blitzed I can get to the point where my entire peripheral vision seems to be rippling like it is underwater and I can barely walk because the ground is doing the tilting thing that happens after you become very dizzy.

I always thought the word "Trip" came from Tryptamines, so technically you can't trip off of cannabinoids. No idea if I'm right though.

Were you diagnosed with any conditions that do potentiate smoking though? I'm considering getting profiled myself.

[QUOTE=mugofdoom;29769057]I always thought the word "Trip" came from Tryptamines, so technically you can't trip off of cannabinoids. No idea if I'm right though.[/QUOTE] You're wrong. Tripping is more like your mind taking a trip into another dimension or some shit like that, it has nothing to do with tryptamines. Besides, there are far many more things than only tryptamines that can make you hallucinate and trip. You can achieve a weed-induced trip at high enough doses, or if it's your first few times. It isn't the same as tripping with tryptamines and such, it is more of a mental trip than visual (although some people can achieve CEVs and OEVs with weed, I get CEVs at high enough doses), but nevertheless a trip.

Tryppin :c00l:

After all, the word began to see its first use at the height of LSD's popularity if I'm not mistaken, and LSD is a tryptamine. It just seems to me that it is far too big of a coincidence.
