Back

You're okay.

What you're feeling is temporary. Your body is processing the cannabinoids. Most people feel better within 15–30 minutes.

Ground yourself

Feel your feet on the floor. Press your palms flat on a surface. Name 5 things you can see right now. Say them out loud if you can.

Anchor your senses

  • Splash cold water on your face or wrists
  • Chew a black peppercorn (seriously — it helps)
  • Hold an ice cube in your hand
  • Smell something strong: coffee, lemon, lavender

Get comfortable

  • Sip cold water — focus on the temperature
  • Lie down somewhere comfortable
  • Put on something familiar — a show, music, a podcast

Support

If you need someone

  • Text someone you trust: "I'm okay, just a bit too high"
  • Fireside Project — call or text 62-FIRESIDE (623-473-7433)
    Peer support for difficult cannabis experiences. Daily 11am–11pm PT.
  • Emergency: 911 or your local emergency number

Cannabis itself is not dangerous, but you deserve support.
