Most likely psychosomatic reaction...eating raw bud is actually pretty harsh on your digestive tract though. I've read about people getting stoned off of eating raw weed too but I have a hard time believing it since it's scientifically proven that there's a certain temp the THC/CBN/etc needs to be heated to to have an effect...and I have a hard time arguing with science Even if you do get a buzz of of the raw stuff most likely you'll get a much stronger buzz if you properly heat it first
Oh thems fightin words! OK, show me the study where people were administered raw pot orally and didn't get high. There's no such study. Injecting animals with inactive chemicals by-passes the G.I. tract which maybe essential for activation.
You are probably confusing the research showing that heat activates certain essential THC substances and assuming heat is absolutely required for those reactions to occur. Clearly - from my experience - the digestive tract has the ability to activate these substances via enzymatic and or chemical reactions.
I seriously doubt I had a psychosomatic reaction. I've eaten raw weed at least twice - as have friends of mine - and each time I had completely forgotten that I had eaten it, until I found myself wasted - not buzzed - and put 2 and 2 together.
The first couple of times I ever smoked pot, I didn't get high. No one told me that happens, so trust me I was intensely expecting and hoping to be having as much fun as my friends who were stoned. I was almost high from expectation and excitement. But I knew I wasn't high. If I was ever going to have a placebo reaction I should have. Also eating the weed was an experiment for me. I wasn't sure anything would happen. Twas a nice surprise.
I already know raw weed will get you wasted. It's for you to try and prove me wrong, as I think you're confusing what ever research you read. It didn't hurt my stomach as far as I recall. But I was young and my parents wouldn't appreciate me getting all gourmet in the kitchen, so I just chewed and swallowed it. You could at least chop it really fine and put it in a shake, apple sauce, ummm, on a peanut butter sandwich. I wouldn't snort it though ;-)
