I've never smoked and I've only done edibles once. And it was by and large the worst experience of my life. I literally walked to a corner in the kitchen sat down and asked people to not let me get up because I was having thoughts of throwing myself out of the window.

So I just sat there with my senses completely messed up. Hallucinating ( I don't think you are supposed to right? ) and completely trapped in a trip I did not want to be in and wondering if I died and gone to hell and that's how my brain was coping with dying.

So yeah. Not a good time.

I'm wondering what everyone else's experience is.

And is it luck that causes you to have a good or bad trip? Is it something we can influence ?

I've had times on weed where I latched onto a thought and it spiraled into this infinitesimal void of paranoia that only lasts a short while. The few times it happened was from shotgun bong rips.

Honestly, I find comfort in it. I feel like I have undiagnosed ADHD or something because even in those paranoid states, it doesn't turn me off of the drug. The other 99% of the time it quiets my mind and I don't spiral into depression or suicidal thoughts.
