Question by sh0ck3r: Why do I get a different reaction from marijuana?
I’ve been smoking for a couple weeks now and when I get high, I get a different feeling than most people around me.

It is hard to taste the food that I am eating, I usually can’t feel my legs too much or they twitch a little bit, I normally zone out and have these weird, animated imaginations and my vision has me super unbalanced where it is hard to even walk straight. Although, for the most part, I normally get really horny and very sleepy.

Is there something I can do differently to experience this differently? Am I getting too high?
Also, I do feel like I’m in my own world and that I can imagine anything I want to with ease. Sometimes, I picture things in my head I don’t want to at all though.

Question by Jovanne: Can a doctor perform detox on someone is they have cirrosis of the liver?
Can a doctor perform detox on someone is they have cirrosis of the liver?
my step farther had a hernia for about 2 years now. it got to the point were it was so painful that he had to go to the hospital, doctors told him he had to have emergency surgery or else he would die because the hernia was sitting on his intestine which they stated would burst if the hernia wasn’t removed immediately. so they surgically removed it but noticed he had a lott of alcohol in his system, because he drank quiet a bit in his life and he loved to drink. which means he must have drank that day or thenighte before his surgery. so doctors decided to detox him right after his surgery,now correct me if im wrong but i thought a person was suppose to recover from a surgery before hand. they never gave him a chance to recover from surgery and put him into detox immediately. and not only that but he should have gone through therapy before any type of detoxification. supposedly as told by the doctors he hadcirrhosiss or the liver and when they detoxed him his body was not able to get rid of the toxins that were trying to be push out of his body because of the supposed cirrhosiss. so to make a long story short, his liver was not able to filter the toxins and he died :’-( honestly this does not seem right to me and if he had cirrhosiss the doctors should have known that if they took tests to make sure he wasHealthyy enough for the detox. now correct me if im wrong but this is defiantly medical malpractice in my eyes! and they placed death upon a person that would have survived with just surgery. if anyone knows they answers to any of this and feels like this i wrong please feel free to comment with mature answers only. thank you everyone.
