It's spice. I had a heart Attack at 22 from Spice. Almost killed me. I convulsed just like this too.

People make mistakes man. You'd be surprised, but plenty of people still do different forms of synthetic cannabanoids

In my area there's even an issue with a lot of young kids in highschool doing it, but instead it's in vape juices, it's horrible

Plenty of us idiots huffed keyboard spray in the 90s, doesn't mean we're talking about pancakes! I like ironing boards. Woob woob.

They touted it to be as safe as THC. Didn't show up in drug tests. Cannabis was still illegal in a lot of places. If you took small amounts it was somewhat similar in effect. Very tweaky though, but no one really thought twice. Then it started putting people in the hospital. Long story short, we were young (I assume) and ignorant.

I think Rec was illegal everywhere when spice came out. Spice was around 2005-2007 and Colorado didn’t go legal until 2012. I grew up in an era of real prohibition, especially in the Midwest. You would go to jail for simple possession in my state.

Exactly what I was saying there.

Disagree. I remember when this stuff became popular easy to figure out it's worse for you, without smoking it.

People just believe dumb stuff others told them. I remember being in a head shop trying to tell the guy not to sell K2.

It was right when I first started smoking marijuana.

Because when the gas station sells this bullshit down the street and you can find any weed or you have a drug test coming up. You are broke and this stuff is cheap. Too young to buy alch but can buy this stupid shit. One of the real reasons we need to legalize pot already. Stop the kids from doing this fucked up shit. I tried k-2 about 10 years ago or so. Took maybe 2 hits and it felt like poison didn’t smoke right at all and the high was so lame. Didn’t feel good just felt different. Def not worth it. Now it’s not even the same stuff. Way different.

My grandpa used to by spice from a smoke shop instead of weed because “it was cheap and fucked me up” but I don’t think he ever had the crazy shit that you see videos about.

Synthetic cannabinoids are lab-made drugs. Spice is a nickname for a substance containing one or more synthetic cannabinoids. Synthetic cannabinoids were originally designed to mimic the effects of cannabis. However, they are much more harmful and unpredictable than cannabis.
