Why do I throw up after smoking weed? - eviltoast

So I was a daily smoker and then I would take a rip, and immediately throw up. It would subside after a few hours and I was good for the rest of the day, but I thought it was weird so I stopped smoking for a couple of months, and figured I’d be OK smoking again this weekend. I took 2 hits, and immediately needed to throw up. They weren’tmonster hits nor did I get enough to even make me cough, but as soon as I took the second hit, I had to expell everything. Can someone please give me clarification on what is possibly going on?

    It might be similar to cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, though that’s usually accompanied with nausea that goes away in a hot shower.

      It’s so random how that happens to some people and not others. Or happens once and never happens again.

        My GF has it real bad if she smokes too much, meanwhile I can smoke 3x as much and be fine.

        Pro tip: If you’ve got this and can’t stand it, ask for some haloperidol. It calms down the nerve that’s making you nauseous.

            As a 36 year old who smoked almost daily from the age of 13 until 33, I can tell you that there are a lot of benefits to not smoking.

      It is most likely this. OP is one of the unfortunate people that just cannot use marijuana safely due to his biology. If you have cannabinoid hyperemesis, best to stay away from weed because the constant nausea/vomiting can lead to unintentional weight loss and a lot of other physical problems that are no fun.
