THC is the least harmful, yet scariest drug I've ever taken.
EDIT: I'm pretty sure you people are all high. I never said pot was dangerous. In fact, I said the opposite. I was making a point that high doses of THC are terrifying.
Never really done any investigation then have you. You should hear about this thing called sugar.
Sugar? What? I was talking about high dosages. Ever been so high you thought your heart was going to explode? That shit was terrifying.
Yes. Had a few paramedic call outs due to THC causing tachycardia. Fucking scary. My heart rate was so high I couldn’t talk. Thankfully my heart was structurally and electrically OK.
On sugar yes. Some people have even died from having too much sugar. Name one person who died from over dosing on thc.

Lots of things can terrify you. Not all of them will kill you though.
I'm not talking about sugar anymore. Go away.
Making intelligent decisions when it comes to things you put inside you is a good starting point. It's only easy to get "too high" if you're ignorant.... And if you're doing drugs ignorantly ya dumb.
Sugar can kill you unlike cannabis.
That is straight up stupid. Sugar is not a drug. It might be addicting, but it's not a drug. It doesn't alter perception or act as a stimulant or sedative.
Sugar is in food. Added sugar can be bad for you. I'm talking about overdosing on THC. What the hell are you talking about?
I said THC is harmless, but it's scary when you get too high and you come in talking about sugar. I think you're high.
I wish.
Why does everyone suddenly want to argue about fucking sugar?! I never mentioned sugar. I'm not talking about sugar. What the fuck!?
After 2 separate people started talking about sugar. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills
Consideribg your stated beliefs here. You sound as though you already are.
What are my stated beliefs? That too much THC makes you paranoid? Is that crazy?
You're right, don't mind the other commenters.
With edibles or just strong weed, you can have heart palpitations that make you think you are dying. You aren't actually going to, but it can feel that way when you are mega stoned.
Try salvia
I did. That shit was wild. Didn't get too much anxiety though. Weird shit started to happen.
It usually induces terror (adrenaline/cortisol) depending on how much you do
Dissociatives phenomenally well translate all the weirdness of Salvia D. Especially DXM.
