Could I really be Allergic

Post by SmellyJK »

I've been in love with Mary-Jane for almost half of my life (i'm in my late 20's now). I think it's fair to say, I'm a stoner. And I'm cool with that. I just like the way it feels when I'm stoned.

But there is one thing... it's a problem thats that has affected me at various times, and it's mainly after I have been smoking for an extended period of time - think weeks, not hours or days.

The closest thing I can compare it to is a bad cas of Hay Fever (allergy to pollen in spring/summer time). When I touch, or smoke cannabis my eyes can become itchy and sore, my nose can stream and I'll start sneezing. This can last for hours and if at night, into the next morning.

Basically, it f***ing sucks big monkey balls, cos I love a good ol' smoke out, but obviously hate being a snotty, sneezing, red-eyed mess. I was just wondering if anyone else has ever experienced or heard of anything like this before.

By the way, this is a problem that subsides when I reduce my intake / stop smoking all together. Problem is, self discipline has never been my strong point....

If it were an alergic reaction, it would occur everytime you came in contact with the substance.

Maybe try one of those cheap paper painters masks when trimming? I use them when mowing the lawn and they really reduce my allergies to all the airborne pollens.
