BEWARE TAINTED POT
I recently smoked marijuana after not having smoked any for more than a
year. It was given to me by an acquaintance. I got real high at first, just
as I remembered. After a while I got the munchies and pigged out on junk
food. I did not feel very good. I felt kind of sick.
An hour or so went by and I felt even worse. I thought it might be the junk
food. I smoked the last bit of marijuana and felt great right away. A while
later I tried to go to sleep. I felt sick again, tired but not sleepy,
hungry but bloated. I just could not get comfortable. I was really thirsty,
but no amount of pop or juice could quench my cottonmouth. I felt really
itchy and dehydrated. This was not what I remembered happening from smoking
pot before.
A few days later I saw the person who gave me the pot. I asked him where he
got it. He said he got it from what he thought was a reliable source. I
told him how it made me sick. He told me he did not smoke any, but said
that from the way it sounded he thought it may have been tainted with heroin.
I was shocked. I could not believe it at first, but the more I thought
about it, I realized he was right. I did some research and discovered it
was just the latest trend. The dealers lace pot with heroin in hopes of
getting people more addicted.
I just wanted to let any other semi-retired hippies or any other
marijuana-only users know what they might be getting into before they smoke.
