DOSE:
    Pharms - Venlafaxine (daily)
    repeated smoked Cannabis  
My ex boyfriend and I light up often but I never really feel the effects because my Venlafaxine is also treating me as an antipsychotic so basically blocks the effects of the weed, it just makes me generally mellow and sleepy and quiet. We switched up to doing buckies (bottle in a bucket of water) and it basically concentrates the weed and we did about 3 buckies each and weren't feeling anything, thinking it was really weak weed we did one more each holding it in as long as we could and then thought we'd done more than enough.

The drug I was on before Venlafaxine was Paroxetine and the side effect from that was tardive dyskinesia- uncontrollable muscle spasms which for me were from my left hip so generally when my leg spasms I just don't pay attention because its a leftover side effect. But this time my right leg started spasming which never happens and my muscles all the way from my hip to my foot were so tensed that my leg burned and my foot was turning inwards. My dog kept trying to hold my leg still and down with his foot and with his head. Then the spasms moved from one leg to both legs and eventually my arms as well until I was in a full body epileptic like fit with every muscle in my body hyper tensed and burning. My dog lay over my body whining trying to get my boyfriends attention in the next room but he was busy and I kept trying to shake it out but the muscles were too tense.

I was lucky not to go to hospital.
