Greening out

Acute over-intoxication: nausea, pallor, sweating, racing heart, anxiety, and sometimes vomiting.

It is unpleasant and frightening but not usually dangerous. It passes. Sit down somewhere quiet, drink water, and wait.

Seek medical help for chest pain, difficulty breathing, seizure, or loss of consciousness, or if a child has consumed cannabis.

Edibles are the most common cause because of their delayed onset.

Also written as: green out, too high, whitey.
