What Happens if I Consume Too Much THC-B?
Most of us have, at some point or another, taken too much of certain cannabinoids that get us high, leaving us in a state where we’re almost too intoxicated, to the point where we may feel anxious, lightheaded, paranoid or just off. Take note, cannabinoids are nontoxic to humans; getting too high doesn’t come with any real danger, but your intoxicated mind can feel alarmed regardless, feeling an urgency to do something to get back to a more sober place.
Ultimately, if you have gotten too high, the effects will not last for longer than a few hours, and during that time you can remember that because the human body has an endocannabinoid system (ECS), you can actually tolerate and metabolize cannabinoids easily without any risk of toxicity. Â
That being said, some of the most commonly reported symptoms of using too much of any psychoactive cannabinoid include:
- Dizziness
- Lightheadedness
- Paranoia
- Anxiety
- Increased heartrate (due to a drop in blood pressure)
- Dry mouth
- Dry eyes
- Inability to concentrate
- Drowsiness/grogginess
- Feeling dissociated
- Fatigue
- Nausea
Tips for Dealing with Taking Too Much THC-B
If you’re experiencing any of the symptoms of taking too much tetrahydrocannabutol as listed above, here are some simple solutions that can get you back to a more grounded, “normal” state.
Getting Too High On THC-B Tip #1: Grab Some CBDÂ
Cannabidiol, or CBD, is the fully non-psychoactive, dominant cannabinoid in hemp that’s commonly used for its anxiolytic effects. It’s known for its notably soothing effect on the body and mind. CBD also interacts synergistically with other cannabinoids including THC-B to mellow out the “high” effects that you’re feeling, to counteract any of the more unpleasant sensations you may experience from accidentally getting too high. Just take a standard dose of CBD – 25mg-40mg or so – and you could be surprised by just how effective it can be.
Getting Too High On THC-B Tip #2: Drink Some CoffeeÂ
Just drinking some fresh coffee might be able to get you back to a more normal-feeling state in no time. As we know, caffeine is a stimulant, so the caffeine in coffee can wake up the body’s nervous system, and what this does is counteract a lot of the effects of THC-B that make you feel groggy and generally out of it. Not only that, but caffeine works synergistically with cannabinoids like THC-B to deliver a more “balanced” feeling in which you’re more grounded, alert and awake, with THC-B keeping away coffee’s more edgy side effects.
Getting Too High On THC-B Tip #3: Reach for Something SweetÂ
Like caffeine, sugar has a similar synergistic relationship with THC-B compound to get your nervous system feeling more like its usual self. Sugar can also help with the sensations that can occur when blood pressure gets lower, which can be very useful if you’re dealing with lightheadedness or an increased heartrate. THC-B may cause the munchies, meaning that you’ll have no trouble convincing yourself to chow down.
Getting Too High On THC-B Tip #4: Take a ShowerÂ
Simply going in for a nice, long shower when you’re too high on THC-B products can have an amazing calming effect on the way you feel, making you feel grounded. The feeling of running water can be extremely calming to the mind, and thus, can make you feel like you’re “in your body” rather than floating above the clouds. A cold shower can be particularly helpful, as it can wake you up to the point of almost making you feel like you’re sober. Just make sure that you’re careful, since tetrahydrocannabutol (THC-B) can throw off our sense of balance and coordination, so you don’t want to slip in the shower.
Getting Too High On THC-B Tip #5: Distract YourselfÂ
One of the most helpful ways to break a negative thought loop is to distract yourself with something that lifts your spirits, which can put an end to any unwanted anxiety spirals with THC-B. Consider if you have a favorite videogame or movie to watch, or an album that always makes you happy and keeps you engaged. Turn to something along these lines and you’ll likely find your anxiety slipping away as you become fully engaged in the distraction.
Getting Too High On THC-B Tip #6: Resist the Urge to GoogleÂ
One thing you truly avoid is going to google for any side effects you’re experiencing with THCB products, all of which are normal and non-life-threatening. Googling symptoms is one of the easiest ways to become even more anxious that something is “wrong,” even when you’re sober, and your altered state of mind can lead you into a feeling of unnecessary panic. Trust that you’re completely fine and not in any danger.
Getting Too High On THC-B Tip #7: Drink Some Water
One of the more common symptoms associated with THC-B is cottonmouth. Extreme dry mouth is irritating, but fortunately it’s easy to fix by just drinking some water, which activates the salivary glands so that your mouth will stop feeling so dry.
Getting Too High On THC-B Tip #8: Change Your EnvironmentÂ
Changing your environment might be a wise choice if all else fails. Go somewhere quiet or even change rooms in your house. If heading outdoors for a simple walk, just be cautious and ensure you are fit enough to walk.
Getting Too High On THC-B Tip #9: Talk to Your FriendsÂ
It can be good to speak with your friends when you consume too much of a highly psychoactive THCB. They can help you through the high by talking about positive things, reassuring you, and giving you other things needed if the THC-B is too much to handle.
Getting Too High On THC-B Tip #10: Try to Sleep It Off
If you’re feeling too high after taking THC-B, consider curling up and taking a nap if your schedule allows. By the time you wake up, chances are that your symptoms will be gone, and you’ll wake up feeling refreshed. THC-B already seems to have some anxiolytic properties that can make it easy to close your eyes and doze off.
Too Much THC-B? Try These Tricks!
Because tetrahydrocannabutol is such a strong psychoactive, it’s definitely a cannabinoid to try in moderation, especially as a newbie. Binoid’s THC-B Products comes with dosing directions to make sure you take no more than the recommended amount. But, should you accidentally end up taking too much, there are plenty of remedies that can help.
