OK I'm freaking the fuck out right now. Come in here and help me.

Good sirs, I do believe I was blown out of my mind last night. In fact I woke up buzzed this morning, and am still a bit loopy. While I do realize that I may have been overreacting a bit last night, I do still wonder about the effects of that plastic.

Isn't it concievable that the plastic could have released some fumes upon being heated up - not by direct contact with the flame but by the contact with the hot smoke? And would it not be possible to "overdose" on the plastic fumes? They are apparently toxic, so would it really be all that surprising if, breathed in excess, they were capable of killing you?

The fact that I still feel weird doesn't sit too well with me, but I'm going to assume, unless I die sometime soon, that it's merely an afterglow from being high as fuck last night for the first time in three weeks. At least I can walk in a straight line again. And my eyes, which were bright pink last night, have cleared up.

All in all though this has been a shitty experience and I'll be glad to see its end.

And as for those who think I was/am faking - incorrect. I realize I have no way of proving it but I was most certainly higher than I've ever been last night, and it wasn't fun.

While it's entirely possible that you inhaled some fumes released by heated plastic, DON'T WORRY!! Don't make a habit of smoking out of plastic, but don't stress yourself out. You definitely didn't inhale enough to cause yourself any permanent damage, and if you think about it you inhale way more toxic stuff driving on the highway or sitting in city traffic.

Smoking pot makes you paranoid, and I've seen plenty of people stoned out of their minds convinced they were dying of something or another. When there's even the tiniest bit of legitimacy in this concern (OMG! I totally licked brownie batter with RAW EGGS in it off my finger! My stomach doesn't feel so good! I'm dying!) it seriously compounds the paranoia. Anxiety attacks brought on by smoking pot with a high THC content that's also low in CBD (the cannabinoid that mitigates the feelings of paranoia and anxiety) aren't that uncommon.

I once spent an entire night convinced that the skin was slowly melting off my body. I tried to go to sleep, but when I'd lay down I could feel my skin puddling in the bed around me. I think I probably got up out of bed to go look in the mirror about ten thousand times that night.

I watched a friend of mine pace the floor for what seemed like a solid hour. He later said that he was afraid if he stopped walking, he would stop breathing and his heart would stop.

True stories.

Agreed. I've smoked out of plastic a couple times. I'm sure there are thousands of fucking teeny boppers that do it every day of the year, and unfortunately they are still alive.

I decided, in my youth, that I wanted to make a bowl out of legos. Seemingly oblivious to the combustible nature of plastic, I created a lovely little piece, with a screen that I'd salvaged off an old door in our attic. I was so pleased with myself for being so creative.

One night after everyone else was alseep, I snuck out to test my contraption. Well, not only was the screen I'd repurposed coated with some kind of plastic-y coating, but the legos themselves were also pretty meltable. I realized my mistake almost as soon as I began pulling the toxic, plastic-laden smoke into my lungs.

I buried the lego monstrosity, complete with melted plastic encased marijuana bud, in the backyard. One day archeologists will unearth it, and it will serve as a testiment to teenage stupidity through the ages.

Fair enough haha.

Yeah, it was stupid. And like you said, it was obviously just paranoia compounded by the fact that the concern was somewhat legitimate. I think I'll be smoking less at a time at least until I finish off this bag. But yeah everything is cool now.

Yep... I want to say that 25% of the people who have grown up smoking pot, have inhaled some sort of plastic fumes... Most of them are healthy and fine

And that's just plastic fumes. How many people smoke out of aluminum soda cans? Or old lead pipes even. TV wants us to think we're all so fragile. If the arsenic and cyanide in ciggarettes doesn't kill you I doubt a pen would.

Shit, I've swallowed quarters and stuff when I was young, never found them in my poops. They might still be in there.

hah..... i bet you pood it out, you might of missed the view once

Either way, dont smoke from a plastic stem. If you can drill holes in glass, go and buy a glass downstem and a glass bowl. They are cheap and easy to find.

Guarantee you they are still there, unless you were really hungry and your stomach acids ate through the metal... Go get a colonic and watch yourself turn into an instant ATM.

Eatin food would most likely lessen your high, which seems to be what you need so go for it. But how the fuck you gonna wake up dead? Don't be like this guy.
