Title: JWH - lethal overdose
Post by: popopo on November 07, 2011, 12:28 pm
Recently there has been some articles about the dangers of synthetic weed claiming that there have been deaths from overdoses.. Im just wondering if its actually possible to die from a jwh-x overdose? if i risk dying if i dont use a 0.01 g scale to measure my doses?

I haven't read anything about lethal overdose, but with insane amounts everything is possible. I know I thought I was dying! But I guess I just had the 'pleasure' of panic attack for the first time in my life:) Start with less than you think is small dose, work from there. At least JWH-018 is potent as hell.

This just proves my point about weed.
Why synthesize the perfect plant, when you can just grow/buy it?
I mean, if you need a stronger hit, buy some hash or budder.  It's not THAT expensive.

I believe there was a story last week or 2 about a young boy that had had lung issues or some other serious medical issue and smoked some synthetic weed and ended up dying.  I believe I also read that he was smoking it from some sort of PLASTIC bowl maybe home made but CERTAINLY YOU DON'T SMOKE PLASTIC!!!   I think the plastic fumes damaged his lungs WAY MORE than the synthetic weed.  Funny though the headline didn't say BOY DIES FROM SMOKING PLASTIC....it said BOY DIES AFTER SMOKING SYNTHETIC MARIJUANA.  I will look for the article and post link if I can.

Why smoke anything synthetic when there is such high quality weed available???

I'm already buying weed and hash, just wanted to try jwh because I heard its good (and legal where I live).. I don't think I've any lung problems, I used to smoke a lot from custom pipes made out of coke bottles so I would also be fine with that  :)  Is there a lot of difference between the effects of each jwh type or will it be about the same whatever i buy?

The kid smoked it out of a pez dispenser. Someone should congratulate his parents on his Darwin award.

Ok so I found the article.....Yeah not too smart using a PEZ dispenser as a pipe.   I would think the fumes from the plastic burning would be worse than the synthetic mj.   I like how they say the chemicals in the drugs killed him while COMPLETELY ignoring the fact that the PLASTIC from the pez dispenser probably gave off some pretty noxious fumes.  Oh and btw he had undergone a DOUBLE LUNG transplant before all this.   Probably shouldn't have been smoking anything.....Plastic, synthetic, or anything else.
I prefer the real thing....especially with all these delicious strains around these days.   

PITTSBURGH — A Pennsylvania eighth-grader who became ill after smoking synthetic marijuana and had a double lung transplant has died.

Tonya Rice tells the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review ( ) that her 13-year-old son, Brandon, died Thursday morning at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh at UPMC. http://bit.ly/tk0Vod

The boy smoked the fake marijuana out of a plastic PEZ candy dispenser. The chemicals in the drugs caused extensive damage to his lungs. Brandon was put on a respirator in June and had a double lung transplant in September.

The boy's mother says anti-rejection drugs he'd taken since the transplants weakened his immune system and made him unable to fight a recent infection.

Gov. Tom Corbett signed a law outlawing such substances in Pennsylvania a few days after the boy smoked the substances. The ban took effect in August.

This is a very minor correction to the above post, but he had the double lung transplant AFTER he smoked. The chronology of events was Smoking --> double lung transplant --> body rejecting lungs because God realized he made a mistake and decided to revoke the kid's life card --> Darwin award
