    I mean, it can.

    Someone not used to it, taking a high dose can end up with nausea, vomiting, etc.

    Even long term potheads can have bad results with too high a dose. Then there’s rare reactions, allergies, etc.

      Smoked every day and had some edibles with a friend. After it kicked in, it took about half an hour before we were way too high, went inside and were knocked out. For a random person experiencing that without knowing what they’d taken, they’d definitely think something was wrong. Maybe panic time instead of chilling on the couch and sleeping it off.

        Even just a panicked 911 call followed by a huge bill you aren’t insured against. What a disaster that could be for someone.

      For someone inexperienced, even a “normal” dose can make you sick. A 10mg gummy made me so nauseated I vomited before I could make it to the toilet.

      Or if you decide to take other drugs that night. You don’t want to mix alcohol with THC for example.

      I’m a moderate smoker and the first time i ever had some miami yayo in cart form with live resin and diamonds (no idea if this is marketing gimmicks but w/e) I had a massive anxiety rush. Obviously I knew how to handle it but fuck me, someone’s first time would have been miserable.
