Sending food back to the kitchen?

[Georgealbert]

 

 

A 55-year-old Scottish tourist, Ms. Henderson, experienced a severe reaction after consuming an excessive amount of cannabis, leading to a public disturbance that required police intervention. The incident took place at a resort on Jomtien Beach Road in Chonburi on October 12, after hotel staff were unable to control the situation and called for assistance.

 

At 12:40, Pol. Lt. Sontaya Khonsap, Deputy Inspector of Pattaya City Police Station, responded to the call. Upon arriving at the scene, officers found Ms. Henderson in a state of extreme fear, crying and shaking inside her room, which was left in disarray. A jar of cannabis flowers, paraphernalia for smoking, and prescription medication were discovered in the room. Officers attempted to calm her down and escort her to the hotel reception area, but her behavior quickly escalated.

 

 

According to a Danish man, who had been friends with Ms. Henderson for over 15 years, they had been in Pattaya for just two days to enjoy their retirement. The previous day, Ms. Henderson purchased cannabis to smoke, after which she began exhibiting unusual behaviour. She became paranoid, fearing that someone was out to harm her, and isolated herself in her room. Concerned for her safety, her friend alerted hotel staff, who then contacted the police for help.

 

As officers attempted to escort Ms. Henderson to a police vehicle, she became increasingly agitated, fearing she would be harmed. She resisted their efforts, sticking her tongue out and making faces at the police and passersby. Police eventually managed to take her to a medical facility for treatment. It is suspected that her erratic behaviour was triggered by a combination of her pre-existing medical condition and an excessive amount of cannabis.

 

Police are continuing to investigate the incident and ensure the well-being of the tourist.

Did she keep smoking?

 

This sort of reaction should dissipate in a few hours.

 

 

 

Weed sounds like fire, need a strain report I think.

If she's come straight from Scotland it's just as likely to be the temperatures here that have had an impact.....anything over 16C and she could be struggling.

Without knowing the medication it is hard to comment, except to say sometimes mixing 'Medication' with any other drug is not a sensible thing to do.

Yep that's how to protect yourself from ( perceived ) enemies, that want to harm you, stick your tongue out and make faces at them..........................   'Och aye, that'll work.

I use 3 or 4 dried cannabis flowers mixed with honey and boiling water to make tea. I let it cool and then drink about 450ml from the fridge.

 

It seems to ease the pain in my arthritic kneecaps. It works for me, though I have no idea if it would work for anybody else.

 

No hallucinations since I started it about 2 months ago.

You don't believe any of the medical information out there that cannabis has medicinal advantages ???

 

You don't believe the growing body of medical research supporting the medicinal benefits of cannabis?

 

Just some personal experience. After suffering a severe sports injury, I was prescribed powerful painkillers (with codeine in it - good stuff). However, due to concerns about potential dependency, I opted for an alternative approach. By incorporating cannabis edibles into my pain management routine, alongside kratom, which also exhibited notable analgesic effects, I was able to reduce my reliance on pharmaceutical opioids. This strategy worked well for me, though individual results may vary.

I consulted with my surgeons; highly respected and knowledgeable professionals, about my decision to moderate my use of prescription painkillers. They not only understood but supported my approach, recognising the importance of managing both pain and the risks associated with dependency.

 

Thus, your characterisation of those who use cannabis as "deluded potheads" is not only inaccurate but also misleading.

 

The conversation surrounding cannabis has evolved significantly, supported by increasing scientific evidence and the endorsement of well-educated healthcare professionals. It's important to consider facts over outdated stereotypes you have used.

 

 

That said: 'getting wellied out of your head' as this woman has, clearly evidences the risks of over doing it.

 

Alcohol is also an excellent anaesthetic...   and I'd also enjoy night enjoying some Whisky to ease the pain....   as with this lady - people will also over do it.

 

Just because someone smokes or consumes Marijuana / cannabis, that does not make them a 'pot head'.... in much the same manner not everyone who consumes alcohol is an alcoholic.

Did I say that?  I referred to deluded potheads, not those with rational, personal experiences. 

 

I did try CBD oil on a recommendation that it may help to ease some injury pain but, over many weeks of daily use, it was no help at all...and it was expensive so I am not completely anti-cannabis and it's derivatives.  I'm happy that it appeared to work for you.

Fair enough....   I was perhaps over defensive as there is a strong contingency of members on this forum who jump on the 'anti-cannabis bandwagon' each time a thread or report exists with a negative outcome related to cannabis / Marijuana use....

 

I think those posters argue from a place of extreme bias without fact and just attempt to inflame those supportive of such moderate measures. 

 

I am quite happy that Thailand allows marijuana - I believe it does far more good than bad when used sensibly.....  And the folk who fail to use such 'substances sensibly' are also likely to be those who fail to use other 'substances sensibly'...  i.e. booze and other 'stuff'.

 

 

I also find it's good for helping with sleep - but don't want to be taking it every night.....  but a few times a weeks is good.
