If you smoke, vape, or eat weed chances are that, sooner or later, you will get too high and that's not something you should be scared of. Sure, it can be a little bit uncomfortable, unsettling, or even scary but it's not dangerous and if you know a few tricks you can turn your careless dosing into a positive and enjoyable experience.
Overly exuberant dosing; it happens to the best and most seasoned users. Sometimes the weed is way better than you think. Other times, you forget how much you ate and eat more. If you are a new user you may get impatient with edibles and eat too many too fast. It doesn't matter how it happens. You will, one day, find yourself to be too high and how you handle it matters.
Some unfortunate souls give in to paranoia. The paranoia turns to fear which turns into panic and panic leads to the dark side or something. Their high is ruined. They are scared away from the fun and harmless hobby of cannabis consumption. They might even needlessly rush to a hospital which will cost them money and give all users a bad name. These things, however, are not unavoidable if you take a few steps to prevent them.
If you feel that you are too high the first step is to remember that you are safe. The drug you took has never been recorded to have killed anybody and chances are you aren't going to be the first. This seems simple but it something that could have prevented a lot of unnecessary hospital visits and anti-cannabis propaganda stories.
The next thing you must do is give yourself over to the experience. Marijuana is a very benign drug but it is still powerful and if you try to fight it you will lose. Instead, embrace it and lit it bring what it will. After a while, you will find that you are enjoying yourself and are invigorated by the intensity of the experience. If you pull it off, you may find that you would like to try high doses again which is great because high dose cannabis buzzes can be really fun and interesting.
If you are still struggling with your buzz, try to distract yourself. Drink a soda or eat a snack and the sensory input will take your mind off your anxiety. Taking a nice hot shower works well too. You could also change your setting by moving to a different room or even by changing the music or television that you have going. It doesn't matter how you do it as long as you make yourself focus on something other than how high you are.
Lastly, always remember that you will come down. Highs go away and you just have to make it through this one. Grit your teeth and strap in because its going to be a long night but you will be stronger at the end of it.
If you use these tricks you can and will make it through any bad weed buzz. They work well with psychedelics but you should exercise more caution with those drugs as they carry more potential hazards than pot. Just be safe and be smart about how you choose to alter your consciousness and you should be fine.
Keep calm and carry on.
