Subject: Weil: HASH OD
|
|
|
|
Hey all! I just read THE NATURAL MIND by Andrew Weil. Although it dealt
|
|
with ACID and MARIJUANA too much for my tastes, I typed up some EXCERPTS
|
|
that I thought you'd like.

p. 50-51:
|
|
|
|
In 1968, when I was studying marihuana in Boston, I deliberately consumed an
|
|
overdose (6 grams) of potent hashish in order to experience this reaction.
|
|
I took it orally, under observation, and kept notes as long as I was able.
|
|
The effects of the drug were felt within forty minutes and were pleasant but
|
|
strong for about a half-hour. Thereafter, things became quite confusing. I
|
|
could not understand what was said to me, felt physically sick, and soon was
|
|
unfit to do anything but lie in bed and wait for morning. Auditory
|
|
hallucinations were prominent, especially threatening voices that rose in
|
|
volume to a crescendo, the faded out. For about twelve hours I remained in
|
|
a stage of consciousness between sleeping and waking, marked by vivid
|
|
nightmares. Lucid intervals were rare; for much of the time I did not know
|
|
where I was, even thinking I was six years old and sick from measles. By
|
|
morning, most of the worst symptoms had disappeared, but I had a powerful
|
|
hangover that left me prostrate for another twenty-four hours. I would not
|
|
willingly repeat the experience.
