So I was being stupid and couldn't smoke any weed because of a work drug test. My friend was in the same boat so he offered that we try some synthetic. I was hesitant at first but finally gave in. We were told not to do it well driving like you can with weed. but my ego failed me and I thought that I would I have no issues driving after smoking it(thinking it was like weed.)

So I am almost at my house with my friend and decide to go around the block and try the synthetic out. I took one really big weed type hit and realized immediately that I need to get to my house now! But out of no where my trucks brakes and power steering gave out(90% positive that they actually did and I wasn't just super high) So we are just rolling around my neighbor hood at around 25mph. The high is getting stronger but I am still there. Me and my friend are freeking out because there was now a giant hill leading to a very busy highway. its about 7 at night on a Friday.

I try the E brake but it does not work. Panic is setting in as we pick up speed and I contemplate trying to stop by running off the road. If we get hit trying to cross the highway in the door me or my friend are dead. With all these thoughts racing through my head, I grind my teeth and let the truck cross the highway, praying for safety. We made it across at the perfect time. Only a few cars coming in the distance.

But are worries are not over we are going 40 through some random parking lot. I am trying everything to stop the truck. Eventually I shut it off and then turned it back on but nothing worked, out of no where the truck comes to a screeching stop. Without a seat belt on I would of been through the wind shield. I look around to try and see where we are and to my left I see this big cross and we stopped right in front of a Jehovahs witness church. And boom!!! that when I lost myself. My spirit/soul/brain/what makes me on the inside(thinking). The control of my body was taken over by some other non-worldly "spirit" It was like I was taken out of my body and literally replaced by something else, but I fully remember what that thing experienced. There was a massive pain throbbing at my temples and it felt like spikes were being driven into them. Worst pain by far I have experienced.

This thing that controlled my body was extremely mad that it was chosen by some higher power to have to replace me for this time period. The thing looked at my friend and knew that it was the previous owners(me) friend and chose not to respond to his talking. The thing thought of human life and seemed to remember it like a story it was once told as a kid. The pain was huge and endless and the thing desperately wanted to get back to where it was previously. Thinking death would be the answer the thing thought of how he might kill off the body. Being unfamiliar with humans he could not think of a way. He looked down at my clothing and thought it was the weirdest thing ever. My friend who was completely fine at the time said he had enough of my craziness and said that we are walking to my house.

For the first time the thing responded to him and said "alright then"(thinking that surely he could find a way to kill off the body he was stuck in) . As we got up the hill and away from the church I slowly came back and went back for the truck. Got into the truck and was completely returned to my body. Turned the key and the truck fired up and everything worked.

Since then I got the truck looked at and was told there were no problems but got new brakes and a new E brake. I cannot find a way to explain truly how that thing thought but the experience was just as strong as any dmt or mushroom trip I have had but even more mind boggling. I found out later that synthetic is much stronger then weed but it is still hard to believe that it was solely the culprit of the terror because my friend took a hit right after I did and felt a strong weed high. Any ideas? I would like to add that the thing was not evil but simply did not care about the fate of humanity and was overwhelmed by pain. It was most mad it was chosen to be there.

Hey hopeful,

Could you please break that up into paragraphs?

Reading a wall of text is extremely tiring on my eyes.


Thanks,
Wap

Edit: thank you for editing into paragraphs

Dude... paragraphs. People often tend to skip over the threads that aren't broken up into paragraphs.

sorry guys completely forgot about paragraphs, granddaddy Kush tends to make skip over simple things. hahah

Uhm...

Don't smoke that stuff.

You didn't figure that out until later?

The synthetic cannabinoids are not "stronger than weed", they are a completely different class of chemicals than those found in cannabis. It is pretty well known that they can have a vast range of effects when ingested, only about half of the people that take them feel similar effects to those of cannabis. They cause serious health problems, and have a massive potential for physiological addiction.

Next time you can't smoke weed... just don't smoke weed. If you can't go a couple of weeks without smoking in order to keep your job, then maybe it's time for you to reevaluate your relationship with cannabis.


There are two possibilities:
1.) The second you inhaled an unknown amount of multiple potent, unidentified, psychoactive chemicals; the brakes, power steering, and emergency brake in your truck all simultaneously stopped working without cause. Then, they suddenly regained function once the effects of the chemicals started to wear off.

or

2.) You inhaled an unknown amount of multiple potent, unidentified, psychoactive chemicals while driving (despite the fact that you were specifically advised against it), and the chemicals affected your perception to the point that you were unable to safely operate a vehicle.


Option 2 seems a whole lot more likely. Your actions were extremely dangerous and irresponsible, and your story is pretty strong evidence of that.

EDIT: I'm all for people having the right to decide if they want to smoke cannabis or not. Occasionally, I'll vaporize a small amount, given the right set and setting. That being said, there is a significant amount of evidence that it does impair your motor skills to the point that it is not safe to be driving a car, despite what your friends might have told you.

Like highways? lol, that synth stuff is horrible as far as Im concerned. Pure panic attack. What brand was it? Do you know which active compound it contained?

Complete side note, you know someones done this with salvia.. yep

it was some stuff that was called bizzaro. Before trying this I had the attitude that everything is worth trying once but that has changed.

I have felt the same way in the past at times. It is definitely a good attitude to change!

Ive had some good expeeiences a few synth and some horrible with others.

Overall i would sugest most people to stay clear from them and esp not try to replace cannabis with them.

Its like trying to replace kratom with fentanyl or subutex.


The few times ive enjoyed them is when i had a hit or two and just layed down in my bed chilling.

And the only one i liked was jwh122, all others were crap.

yea I would like to say that my story was not meant to brag about doing that stuff while driving. I had a friend 2 weeks ago who died crossing the street because she was hit by a drunk driver. I'm just thankful that my ride into hell didn't result in a similar way.

don't use drugs and drive.

don't use drugs and drive.

repeat ^ until wise.
