    Seems whatever he smokes has an ability to kill him, lesson being, tell him put nothing in his mouth anymore

    But what if we find it on the ground and think it's weed?

    I dunno. Smoke it to establish its substance?

    It's just a mild warning. Take it or leave it.

    Smoking things you find on the ground. Sure what could possibly go wrong?

    He was terrified.
    On plus side hospital have picked up on a possible heart irregularity.

    Hope he gets well soon.

    Aside from the fact it was spice and not weed however, I don't think it's the best idea to be smoking up and old stuff you find on the street.

    Well I know for a fact that it definitely doesn't smell like weed, so yer buddy should have some cop on there. I'm daft myself sometimes but I only did smoke it in tiny single skinners and long breaks in between. Stick to the prohibited proper stuff.

    It's one of the worst drugs in the world, I tried it once and felt awful for about 4 days after, never again...

    Take 15 and watch this OP :

    How extreme were the hallucinations OP? The way you describe the effect it sounds like DMT

    The reaction is a wee bit hysterical I reckon, but the message is worth taking on board all the same.

    Spice is a disaster of a thing, can´t believe it´s still going around.

    He said that everything started going in slow motion. Then the guy saw what was happening and he had to touch him to know he was real while he was talking to him. He was screaming for help and crying like a baby. His words. Then everything sped up and people were running past him. He could hear the music playing in reverse. Not sure how to imagine that but anyway!. He came out of it temporarily but other guy told him he would have another one. He didn't believe him and tried to get home. Then it hit him again . Ambulance found him and after stabilizing him told him he very nearly croaked it.

    I'm neither a saint nor an evangelist but I was not aware of this drug. It's an informative post nothing else. I still have no idea whether there will be longer term effects

    Luckily, the amount of heroin I use is harmless. I inject about once a month on a purely recreational basis. Fine. But what about other people less stable, less educated, less middle-class than me? Builders or blacks for example. If you're one of those, my advice to you is leave well alone.

    DMT is high quality compared to this ****. (In the US Spice is sometimes called K2)

    Don't forget horticulturists. They are in the danger zone.

    Also be aware of Cake.
    What is cake? Well, it has an active ingredient which is a dangerous psychoactive compound known as "dimesmeric andersonphospate". It stimulates the part of the brain called "Shatner's bassoon", and that's the bit of the brain that deals with time perception. So a second feels like a month. Well, it almost sounds like fun, unless you're the Prague schoolboy who walked out into the street, straight in front of a tram. He thought he'd got a month to cross the street...


    Here, you leave the Cake out of it, you hear!!

    It's not the spice in particular but the presence of "hot spots" in the mixture (high concentrations of the synthetic cannabinoid) that causes these undesirable effects.

    I smoked spice the whole time when head shops were a thing, but only twice ever smoked a hot spot. First time I was lucky enough to be at home so slept it off but the second time I was out. Felt like I was watching myself from above and just completely uneasy and detached. That time made me give it up and go back to the good stuff e.g natural cannabis.

    For a smoker, getting caught out by spice shouldn't happen too often as the stuff tastes and smells like burning marshmallow. You'd instantly know if it was in a joint

    Thing is that he has smoked a joint maybe three times in his life so he wouldn't be a connoisseur so to speak

    Sorry to ask this so but what was he thinking smoking random green stuff he found on the street if he doesn't smoke weed regularly?
