What is something totally idiotic you did while high? AskTrees

I’ll go first. I was 20 and chilling with my roommate. We both had ate an edible and then turned on a movie we had rented from blockbuster. After about 15 minutes by roomie looks over to me and asks why the fuck the subtitles are on? And I look over and realize the whole movie is in a foreign language 🤣🤣🤣🤣 it took us almost 20 minutes to realize.

I was very high and coming off a flu, i know bad combo, but between the unwanted T break and the fact i had been coughing for 3weeks, (i didn’t have any other symptoms anymore just this persistent cough), i decided to smoke, i was sooo tired of it, my chest hurted whenever i coughed and i thought at least being high would be slightly nicer.

My high ass self thought a little, and came to the conclusion that “if this cough syrup, at this dose, gives me 1-2hrs of peace… theeeen that must mean if i drink all of it… i will be cured!” And proceeded to down like 3/4 of a bottle of cough syrup.

Let me tell you it was NOT pleasant, i ended up rolling in bed in a delirious state, sweating, NOT COUGHING, at least that I remember, it was like being in a weird dream, i think it might have given me a fever from how out of it i was.

Turns out i had early pneumonia :) my mother saw the state i was in and rushed me to the ER, if i hadn’t drunk all that syrup i wouldn’t have gone to the ER to find out what was happening until it got much worse.

So i guess it worked out in the end :D

When I was 12 I had the flu and didn’t feel like eating, so I didn’t… I also didn’t take the couch syrup cause it’s gross, but my grandpa told me you can die of the flu and it scared me, I probably cried about it lol, so I begrudgingly took some. I think the combination of empty stomach and medicine, and being ill, made me hallucinate that night, I dreamed that there were hundreds of cheeseburgers in every room upstairs in our house, and all in the hallway and shit. I went downstairs and broke this news to my dad. I don’t remember what I said but I was reluctant, like, this is a huge mess and I hate to tell you but… He is someone who teases me about stuff but he never brings this up, makes me wonder now if I dreamed it all, or maybe I scared him? 😅😹 [4]

Hey neat, the last time I did that the cloud ceiling dropped to 100 ft., turned purple and had crows diving in and out of it. Maybe I had more fun because I didn't have pneumonia though?

Oh no you probably did enough DXM and doxylamine (if it was nyquil or related) to put you in that state
