- Hey everyone! Once again I want to thank all of you for your immense support. It means everything to me to know I’m helping even one person. It means even more to me to read about how you help each other by giving advice or coping mechanisms that worked for you. PLEASE CONTINUE TO DO THAT! If there’s anything we can gain of value from this experience, it is that we inform those with only an outside perspective of the sickness of our own personal experience. Be honest. Be observant. Stay open minded and don’t be afraid to ask for help. For information on the current epidemic please visit the below website as well as doing your own unbiased research. It’s extremely important that we find out how to stop this from happening to others and to help those already hurt to recover.
EDIT: Shoutout to Lex F (the girl who I mentioned in my vid) for giving her experience on CHS. I’ll put her channel link below!

Hey bro, Ive had a few episodes to. Abstinence from cannabis is the only way, flower or any form. You've got this bro. Do a solid 3 months, then after respect the plant. 100% moderation. Then a t break before it gets bad. Once you notice you're smoking as a means to an end it's got to stop for a while. Don't smoke to calm your stomach, or to calm your anxiety, don't smoke x for y. Keep it recreational. And especially don't smoke before sleep. Your body fasts while you sleep, its not as active so your metabolism is significantly slowed down- meaning your body doesn't dispose of thc correctly. Everyday exercise helps to kick it out of your stored fat. Physical activity is amazing for your anxiety, health, and depression. Then you can enjoy smoking for what it is. Smoking, not depending. I love you brother. You have me hope through my journey. It's definitely anxiety related and high blood pressure too. That's where physical activity comes in. We aren't alone. You're a martyr. Love.
Love this. Just found out I’ve had chs for over ten years so I know the pain… literally. I’ve got hernia at the top of my gut from to many bouts. Had cameras and all the tests done. I take omeprazole for that but I’ve honestly lost count of how many bouts I’ve had maybe 30-50 or more. Thc binds to our digestive track and causes it to contract and stress too much. I know it’s nasty but a laxative can help get some movement going and reduce some cramping. When I have episodes I go into shock a lot. Sweat all my fluid and shake uncontrollably. I’ll have hot sweats and will vomit for the whole duration until I can fall asleep. I’ve been sick too many times to even remember. I once went a whole year without a bout and I was smoking the whole time. From what I can tell. It starts with Radom bouts once in a blue moon and then over time it slowly fuck our digestive system up. I’ve found vitamin d and b12 helps. Creatine helps me maintain a decent weight. And now I know about chs and that I have it. I’m really gonna try to cut down and maybe stop who knows. Shout out to anyone suffering. I’m from the uk so don’t even know if I can get a real diagnosis
Angel.. you're an Angel for real. It's full of persons that say that the only way Is to stop forever.. your words gave me Hope. Thank's man
I like this.
I’m 7 weeks sober and I feel fucking fabulous! No more nonstop shitting no more bloated stomach no more crampings no more nauseousness no more non stop thirstyness no more burning dollar bills no more ER visits no more severe stomach pains no more feeling like a dam zombie u get the point what I’m saying here? Sober feels amazing exercising more sleep early like a baby and my bank account loves me! You guys can do it too trust and bet on yourself! Never ever going back was dabbing .5 gms/day bye bye THC ✌🏽
How are you doing?
@@TabletSnipes great bro! Aug 4 I’ll be 2 years sober and I love it! Also quit drinking 2014. It’s mind over matter tbh. I try to always occupy my mind w something other than thinking about dabbing shit works frfr. I remember every “7/10” oil holiday I’d drop $500+ for oils never again! I spend more time w my family and self care is always love! 🙏🏽
Iam healed I have been without weed for 2 weeks now and I dont throw up or have pain anymore I feel great we can do it god bless.
Vegan Bear How often were you vomiting if you don’t mind me asking?
Vegan Bear hey that’s honestly really awesome. I’m glad you figured it out and climbed out of the hole. I’m gonna keep trying to be stronger willed. Congrats on feeling well my friend (:
If you randomly have a bout if CHS symptoms 3 or 4 months from now- dont freak out... it's likely the CHS still. This happened to me. It made me doubt the diagnosis (which caused a lot of yo-yoing) and now here I am... So... it may not be over yet, friend. But keep going on The Red Road
Was wondering when you would come back watched months ago and the video helped me loads I'm glad to see an update
How u doin now? Just quit today
:(
I had CHS for 3 years. Thought it was "fixed" after 10 months of no symptoms (and smoking mostly home grown organic) and then BAM- sick. Starting over...again (again). Homie, every time we do this... it damages our kidneys. We gotta cut it out.
Vape pens/concentrates are the worst thing you could do for CHS... instead of bud at most being 30% you go take a concentrate at up to 99%...you are fast tracking overloading your CBD 1&2 Receptors. Whatch out for black pepper, cocoa and coffee as these also have natural Cannabinoids and can trigger CHS.
Wow. Honestly watching this video makes me want to not ever pick up the habit again. You are helping me. I smoked everyday for the past three years and 80% sure it was CHS. I went threw hell and back two weeks. I keep thinking of how bad I felt literally crying my eyes out because of how bad the nausea is. Guys it’s not worth it. I know it’s hard trust me. But we can do it!
hey, just diagnosed myself? Update on your case?
Stay strong guys and gals.
To be fair the pain just got to much in the end and that was ultimately what made me completely stop smoking weed... I was in denial about it actually being the weed at first because I smoked for so many years with no problems and actually enjoyed smoking. But I read so many testimonies about the problems/symptoms being due to weed smoking. So thought let me really put this quitting to the test, so I did. I’ve never looked back, no more symptoms and ultimately no more of that disgusting/unbearable pain. As much as we all enjoy a good smoke, quitting is the only way

God bless u. 🤗🤗
same here my dude, and i think thats the problem. People denying and not wanting to believe its weed up until the point their body is shutting down. It sucks to come to the realization that we are basically Allergic to weed. You're telling me i can drink a Fifth of jack and feel like shit for a day, but if i smoke a bowl ill feel like shit for a week. DOPE!
I went through 4 episodes and quit. I'm on day 63 now. After smoking every day, all day for 15 years. Feel great. Can't imagine going back...never want to experience an episode again. Only cure for now is cessation of weed unfortunately. Consistent exercise and hydration is key. I hope you have stopped completely by now...your body is a temple, treat it as such. Cmon man, do better, be smarter. It sucks but there are other things in life.
I smoked bud every day for years with CHS now I’m 18 days clean feeling better. Stay strong guys!
Facts the only cure is to quit

Thank you so much for making these videos. I think I've had CHS for about 3 years now and all this time I thought it was just extreme anxiety, and I have also always told myself that the weed was the only thing helping. This really validates the feelings I have had and now I finally feel like I can take the steps to cut it out at least enough to function on a daily basis

You can do it! Thank you for posting. Your transparency is helping people.🙏🏽 You’re in my prayers Bro.
Watching this video has answered so many questions I’ve had, thank you so much for this it’s really going to help me knowing theirs videos like these, other people explaining the pain theyve gone through or are going through. I love you all, and I wish you all the best good luck everybody❤️
Just got diagnosed 5 days ago, day after was smoking again (not a good idea) the mild symptoms started to return. This shit is no joke. I love smoking and the thought of quitting is extremely depressing. But I’m on day 2 of being sober which I haven’t done in 3 years. Anxiety is there but I’m genuinely scared to smoke because I do NOT want to go hypermedic again. BRUTAL. But I just wanted to comment that your vids are helping me so much get through this bullshit. I have never left a comment on a video in my life. I would love to see how you’re doing now man. I have a lot of respect for your honesty and these videos are helping so many people brother. Thank you for real. P.S (those liquid shits are no fun)
Bro I have soo much love for you. The fact that you make these video's helps me realize I'm not alone. I'm not the only one suffering. I just spent 3 1/2 days in the hospital and was diagnosed with CHS. It was easily the most pain I've ever felt in my life. The panic attacks are also real. Omw to the hospital my hands and feet were going numb, not sure if that's a normal symptom, either way I thought I was dying or suffering some sort of cardiac event because my heartbeat was skyrocketing, in reality I was just having a panic attack. CHS is no joke. Thank you for doing this though, you are a great soul I can feel it.
Maximum FRESH my arms would go numb after I threw up I got sent home w zofran from the er it kinda helps sometimes but sometimes it doesn’t.

I just want you to know I've followed everyone's story on here it somehow helps me but your channel has really helped me get thru this. I'm on day 17 of the sickness and I quit smoking about a week ago. You are the one I most relate to and I just want to thank you so much you have no idea how this is helping me . Thank you so much

be careful about your kidneys and lungs, smoking weed is great, but healthy sober lifestyle is much more life-beign experience on this planet, be strong, lovely soul :)
Hey man, I’ve heard tones and tones of stories about people who thought it was the vape pens, switched to growing their own weed pesticide free, and the problems still persisted. Best of luck to you my man. Based on hours of research MODERATION is key.
Facts take 1-2 years completely off and then smoke once in a while is my plan
Was starting to get chs after 3years of smoking everyday never thought i could stop just stop smoking its not easy but so worth it im 7 days sober and I've never felt better my life turned around already
its day one for me and im already almost fully better
Hope you’re doing well my man. Would love to hear how you’re doing in 2022
Thank you!! I’m doing so much better than when these videos were recorded. I’ll try to get off my ass and record an update before too long
@@thechsjournal3734 please do!! I've watched these videos for years now dealing with chs myself! You've help me so much! And always wondered how things have been for you
@@thechsjournal3734 please make another video. I’m struggling to get through this and need to see that someone who was struggling like me actually managed to get better
@@thechsjournal3734 i'll be waiting on your update
Man i made a mistake which i was supposed to smoke again during the recovery stage i went smoking again and i ended up to the 1th stage again dont fall for this trap
Thanks for the video glad I'm not alone
thankyou for your videos, recently diagnosed and its nice to not feel so alone. how are you doing now man? its been a while
thanks for making this, your videos were the only thing that made me feel less alone when I was in the middle of a week of vomiting. I also believe the pens made me hyper-emetic and have stopped using them but still smoke daily (grown by me) and most mornings I wake up feeling at least a little shitty. What sucks is that smoking usually makes it go away immediately but if I do it in the morning it's pretty hard not to make it an all day thing that turns into a viscous cycle... I find that not smoking too late at night / too many x per day is the biggest help. It could also totally be placebo but ginger ale seems to help me a lot too, the one time I ran out I started throwing up again.
Mason Newitt I’m in a similar situation yet I’m not sure if I have CHS I only had one 12 hour vomiting episode ever and it might’ve been a stomach virus, but I do wake up with morning sickness a lot just kinda sick to my stomach not very hungry, I don’t take anything for it as it’s not like painful or causing me to gag or anything but all my tests have come back clean on my GI side so I’ve just cut back a lot only using a small amount before dinner and a medium amount before bed
Mason Newitt Hey man, I really appreciate your input and it means a ton to me that at least something I say is helping you. I’m done with the pens and I’m gonna try to cut back significantly on smoking (especially on a daily basis) until I can eventually put it down or at least function like a proper human being regularly lol. But that’s the same for me with the morning routine. I wake up extra early and I feel awful. It usually starts to subside after I lay there and whine for like 15 mins or if I take a hit off the bowl first thing in the morning... which you would think would seem a bit counterproductive lol but it totally does help. Makes it hard to break that cycle you’re talking about. But I’m glad you mentioned it because it’s literally what I go through every morning and you nailed it on the head. I’ll have to give ginger ale a go. I was trying to get candy when I was hyperemetic. Good luck man! Hope things work out!
@@thechsjournal3734 I have been told I have it. Inhaling alcohol wipes for nausea, spreading capsaicin cream on belly for cramps 3 capsules of charcoal one baby benedryl after 3 months of vaping various products and having no chs symptoms but went way anxious finally given flower permission bought 3.5 lemon OG flower from TL with no adverse effects bought 8lb hammer too strong for me one puff on knees 6 hours. Went back was told better stock up as u never know when we will get again. Bought all I could afford 6. Out of the 6 bought 4 made me chs sick so closed it up and cleaned out 6 days still got chs symptoms when going back now just vaping kief from unknown mix to maintain once or twice a day not enough medicine for me but I will agree with the stress and junk food not helpful when I am being poisoned by something

im still in the early stages of CHS, ive only thrown up 5-10 time in the last month, today is my first day not smoking weed, shooting for 1 week no smoking, your vids help a lot, idk why its so comforting to here you talk about this but it is🙏
Same here man. I’m one of the lucky ones. I had only one pretty serious bout of hyperemisis but I had ongoing nausea after that. I’ve been smoking 10x a day for over 10 years probably. I switched to the vape pen 4 years ago. It’s gonna be really hard to give it up. How are things going for you?
@@shaan702 how are you getting on now, did you quite or slow down, ive only had one serious bout but it was my first. Im currently quiting weed for around 3 months and gonna try again once just to see how i feel.
@@Rjh0177 I ended up quitting thc altogether. The hyperemisis was too intense. The first few months after I quit I was drinking more than I should. I was diagnosed with adhd and apparently it’s pretty common for adhd people to want to be high all the time to deal with boredom. I’m in adhd medication and antidepressants so that has made it easier to be sober. I don’t really drink much anymore. I’ll drink some Kratom from time to time if I want to feel a buzz but overall I feel better. I am able to remember my dreams now and my memory is a lot better than when I was vaping thc all the time. Since I can pass a drug test now I got my CDL so I can get a driving job. So for the time being I’m not planning on going back to the thc. Maybe when I’m an old man if I don’t get hyperemisis I’ll start vaping again but I’m doing fine now so I don’t really feel a need to vape all the time. In retrospect I definitely was overdoing it and that’s why I got hyperemisis. If after 3 months you don’t get hyperemisis then you should be alright but if not you might just have to adapt to something. Humans are pretty good at adapting to different situations.
@@shaan702 Thanks for the reply man, i was never diagnosed as a kid but i am nearly sure i have ADHD maybe not full on but defo some form of it, feel like i can just deal with it better but i think thats one of the reasons i enjoyed being high all the time it was just something else to do instead of feeling lost i could just continually smoke weed, but ive burnt those bridges. Im fine quitting tbh and its for the better even after 2 weeks i feel clear headed and just better, its just that feeling of am i never able to smoke once more again, theres gonna be a time in my life when it comes around again not me going out of my way for it and i would enjoy knowing im not going to die for 5 days from just that once lol. Im 21 but literally never enjoyed drinking just wasnt for me always fucked my stomach and just didnt enjoy the feeling of it so weed was my thing.
@@Rjh0177 if you’re already at the 2 week mark then the worst is over. You shouldn’t have any more withdrawals. If you think you have adhd, even if it’s pretty minor, it’s probably worth it to be evaluated. I wish I had done it much sooner. Life is a lot easier now that I’ve learned some healthier coping mechanisms and I’m taking medication. If you’re in school it will almost certainly make you’re life a lot easier. Daily exercise is good advice for anyone but especially people with adhd. I work out every weekday and that makes a big difference as well. It’s good you’re not a drinker. That’s infinitely more dangerous than thc but thc does have its own shortcomings. Best of luck to you. I hope it all goes well.
Stay strong brother stay strong
I absolutely agree with this, Concentrates and Dabs are what caused my body to go through CHS. I’m 11 days sober today, miss smoking weed so much to help with my anxiety and depression but it just isn’t worth the pain 😓 so sad to hear your symptoms have come back but so happy to see you post back on CZcams! Please keep us updated!
Hood Rich Tutorials Wait Fr Fr? Could you estimate how much wax you were using? It could help a brother out
Hood Rich Tutorials damn 11 days sober you’ve made it past the hard part. Hopefully it only gets easier from there and I agree, it’s not worth it when you can’t leave your house and land in the ER over it. Good luck, I hope you make it through!
Trenton W honestly I’m not sure, we would buy a gram and dab it either in a pen or in a rig and about a couple weeks to a month I started to develop the symptoms of CHS. but probably a gram a week maybe?? Sorry not the best estimate I didn’t count it really just smoked it 😂
The CHS Journal I hope you can get through this too! So hard wanting to smoke when I’m bored or depressed but I guess it just means it’s time for a change of lifestyle. The hardest part was going from smoking every day to quitting cold turkey, I feel like smoking became of a part of me and I’ve had to learn a new form of myself that doesn’t smoke at all.. wishing wellness to all of you 💚

i have not smoked weed for over 24 hours now at this point and my stomach pain is getting a lot more better!! it is 100% worth it to not have to be sick, what did it for me was that i kept smoking and throughout the day the stomach issues were just getting worse so i decided it is just worth it to live life without it for my health lol and mentally being sick is not good for you. good luck everyone you can do it and you can quit!!!! thank you so much for these videos, i have learned a lot and decided to start my process of elimination because i definitely feel i have CHS. hope things get better for you

DUDE OMG I’ve wondered about you for these past few months!!!!!
Jessica Lynn sorry, I kinda disappeared for a lot longer than I meant to lol. I’ve been up and down like crazy. How have you been doing?
The CHS Journal I’ve been pretty good! Stopped smoking for probably 2 1/2 weeks after my last “chs episode” (which was about 9 months ago) and then gradually brought it back up to normal(for me)/everyday.. haven’t had any nausea or vomiting at all since, despite smoking the exact amount i did before I was admitted to the ER&hospital. I got on an antidepressant/antianxiety called Lexapro and I wonder if maybe, all along, it was just bad anxious episodes bc of school and things. My episodes tended to always be RIGHT before an exam or job interview or something like that & now that I’m on the Lexapro (for like 8-9months now) I have not had an anxious episode or stomach issue like that SINCE. Every so often I’d go to your channel and see if you’d made any updates since then bc I wondered if maybe you were in the same position I was in
Jessica Lynn hey so recently I’ve actually been finding articles that say that anxiety is directly related to it and can often be the trigger for the hyperemesis part. All the reports are showing people are coming into ERs suffering from panic attacks alongside dehydration etc from vomiting episodes and all that. I guess it can also have something to do with blood pressure because high anxiety situations cause blood pressure to rise making your kidneys work harder to distil toxins from our blood. The theories are still just theories so I don’t want people to take it as fact without researching for themselves, but I’m sure anxiety plays a huge role..
I’m so glad you’ve been doing well! I hope you continue to feel okay, try and keep me updated on how it goes. Let me know if you start experiencing symptoms again for any reason. ♥️
The CHS Journal I definitely will man ♥️ Message me if you ever want to compare or need clarity or anything

HI it's the first time of my life I comment, I relate so much I can't stop .
I saw a comment that was saying " your video are wayyy too long " EWWWW if they were 9hours long I would still watch it . Don't listen to this isolated case . Coz it seems that you've been helping so many of us going through the same S..... !!! I cannot emphasize enough on how this content is appreciated...
Originally I was going to say something about the music background, I am autistic and it's really hard to focus on what you are saying but who am I ?? I actually listened to it with subtitles and it was just fine .
So for those who complain about the time of your video, there is a button where you can fast forward x2 . Be nice people ...and find your own solution. If I can do it you can ;-)
Sorry for my English. I'm not fluent yet .
And thank you so much for your contribution to this unknown phenomenon 👽
Just pray to god everything will be fine 🙏
Hey man idk if you look at these comments anymore, but I just wanna lyk you got me through a really hard time last year and I just hope youre doing good.
Comments like this are everything to me. I do still read my comments, although I haven’t quite made rounds in responding to everyone.
I’m doing alright these days and I’m extremely glad to know you got through it. I can’t stress enough how happy it makes me that I was able to help. Hope you’re doing much better this year and thank you so much for your words
Are you ok bro?
I've smoked for over 20 years, and after I tried concentrates in general, I was diagnosed with CHS. I first tried dispensary BHO dabs and ended up in the hospital. The pain and vomiting lasted 2 days. After this my stomach was never the same. I then started using carts heavily and ended up with pain and vomiting for 7 days straight. Now if I even smoke a little piece of a regular joint I'm nauseous and taking hot showers for days, but no vomiting yet. I love weed. It helps me mentally but now destroys me physically. I hope they figure out what's going on, even if it really is just the THC, I want to know. Thank you for your videos. Much love.

Nah it’s because the cartridges and battery is straight up radiation especially d9 or d8 thc-o I feel it’s synthetic you still have toxins in your lungs too and they pass down to the stomach but either way don’t separate from god because like the guy said 7 people died from this is kinda shocking
Hey I really hope you see this comment, there has been people saying that haldol for when you go to the ER will stop an episode in its tracks. So if you’re using again, then that might be valuable information possibly saving time or money, best of luck. I’m still not even sure if I have CHS but I’ve been watching along regardless haha
Trenton W of course I’ll see your comment! And I see your comments on everyone else’s too! I appreciate you being supportive and actually wanting to help. That really says a lot about a person. I remember reading on a forum somewhere about Haldol but I’ve been reluctant to try it since others have claimed it’s a little harsh on your stomach and I have one HELL of a weak stomach after all this lol. But if it comes down to it, I think I’ll give it a shot. Thanks for the suggestion! Try to keep a log of how you’re feeling on a daily basis and how much you’re smoking. Like just jot some shit down in your phones notepad or something and see if there’s a trend. Worth a try and it’s a step toward figuring out whether or not CHS is the culprit. Hope you feel better man! Good luck, much love.
It has a high rate of side effects and is last resort kind of thing. There have been people that flipped out just from one dose... :(

Never been into using the pens. I have always smoked the flower and unfortunately I have CHS. I have been having the “sick cycles” for about 4 years. It wasn’t until today I realized this is an actual condition.
3 days clean and I already feel 80% better was throwing up for the past 2 weeks
I when to the ER last night and they jus said I needed to get rehydrated and they gave me some dissolve pills for the vomiting but as of today I’m starting to feel way better but I know this is gonna be hard for me I used weed for everything everyday every hour but I want to know if I will ever be able to smoke again but I want to have a full recovery before I try to go back to smoking thank you for your videos bro you really helped me
It goes away. And you can smoke again but you’re rolling the dice, it just came back to me after 4 years. I think the morning smoke is the one that causes this.
I literally had my first chs attack 12 days ago. Went to the ER and felt sick for about 4 days but now on day 11 I don't feel any nausea and I haven't vomited at all in 5 days.
I am 45 years old been smoking since I was 19 this vomiting started for me about 4 years ago, i discovered the research on this subject 5 months ago and decided to stop and see if it helped me cure myself, which it seems to. I see a lot of different opinions from people of different age groups etc on this and other videos/articles/discussions of this subject and it does make me wonder if this isn't occurring because of modern botany techniques related to growing pot, some say they grow their own and still have this illness. My question is where do they acquire their seed and has the entire seed stock become polluted (as we have heard Monsanto has done through genetically modifying the corn seed stock)?? Prior to the last ten years and the legalization and mass marketing of weed I have never once heard of these symptoms in anyone and that covers users of 2 years to long term users of 20+ years. In short I believe this is a real problem but not a naturally occurring problem. I think the powers that be are messing with the botany folks, not good!
Incidentally I stopped smoking on the exact date this vid was published, today is Dec 3 all functions have returned to normal, however being in a home of a legal medicinal user, my wife, I do miss doing it and wonder how permanent these effects can be and if I will ever be able to smoke again. Sure been saving a ton of cash as a result I must say.
I think you can definitely smoke. It's the abusing part. Smoke once every 3 days you won't have an issue?
Yeah I've been smoking for 20 years and for the last five years I've been sick from smoking pot too much, I've tried to stop and then go back to it, but it always comes back every time. I just recently stopped and I feel a lot better, lot More energy, and a pocket full of cash.

@@bhh2100 nope not how it works.
Its not just flour(weed) tho, its dabs, wax concentrates, edibles Etc.
I had CHS and let me just tell you it was the worst experience of my life. Utter pain for months straight, I looked as if I was dead. I thought this shit would never happen to me but it could happen to anyone!! Watch out everyone, be safe.
It's important to spread awarness about this condition. A lot of people are effected by it and don't even know it
I'm 52 years old I've recently been diagnosed with CHS. I've been smoking for most of my adult life. It was just recently that I started dabbing and I believe that the concentrates are what sent me over the edge. I'm in the process of detoxing and it is rough
I found out about CHS today when my teacher said his son got it and he really went into detail and it scared me a lot. I’m a heavy smoker and I’m so scared to stop man I hope I don’t have to go through this, I’m definitely considering seeing a doctor and asking about this
Just smoke in moderation
Please please please lay off the dabs it will help so much
@@larrythecableman6963 I quit more than 2 months ago and I feel way better.
If anyone’s reading this and wants to quit, just try going on a 2 week tolerance break and write down how u feel every day. Easier said than done but if you don’t let your world revolve around you quitting smoking the withdraws are barely noticeable and they won’t bother you half as much.
Never would I thought I’d say this but quitting weed was the best decision I’ve ever made. There’s tons of people saying “nah you’re good, just smoke in moderation” but if you don’t listen to them you’ll never need it again. It’s 90% mental 10% physical if you wanna quit you got this :)
@@obamaslastname6874 thank you! I’m on day 3, it’s been rough but Ik this is what I need to do
Even though I dont have. I look at so many stories and it makes me wonder why when once someone gets CHS they cant smoke ever again. I think I might have an idea to prevent it in the first place even if you smoke everyday because I know some people need it for medical reasons but I dont know if it would work once you get it.
I figured it out boys and I strictly smoked carts as well
With a lot of research this is what I’ve found
It’s the same reaction as when you take too much head ache medication to heal your head ache but then it just causes a headache
Thc gets stored in fatcells and needs to be processed like everything else and when long term smokers put in to much thc over time with out a break our body’s can’t handle it, carts are way more potent so CHS happens faster then bud but if you give your body a full year or 2 completely detox the thc add extra enzymes to diet to process the thc. as of now your reciptors are broken and when u only wait a month after u feel good to smoke again but there not actually healed and you have to let them heal and you’ll never be able to smoke everyday or it’ll come back and it’ll have to be only on occasion but better then nothin
thanks for this, its better than just DONT EVER SMOKE AGAIN,
god i love you
Hi there just putting this out here but I recently found out I have CHS and deep heat or heat rub works really well to relieve the pain hope's this helps someone
Don’t feel bad about picking it up again man. People who say weed isn’t addicting is wrong. Almost everyone who uses, especially if it makes you sick and you still use then yeah you’re addicted. Be strong man, get some help if you need it. You gotta quit tho, live a healthier life where you don’t have to get high to be happy or feel normal. Much love, I just quit three days ago. This is the 10th time trying to quit... hopefully the last time
I just got my diagnosis today. i had a lurking suspicion that it was CHS after being a daily smoker for 3 and a half years now. my dad even texted me a year ago about the potential of it being hyperemesis and i ignored him cuz I had been diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome a few years earlier. A year ago, I started going to therapy and really working on overcoming my anxiety, which helped a ton but didnt solve everything. funny enough, I havent smoked in a couple weeks cuz i realized weed was not helping at all while i was super stressed during finals. Glad i have a little headstart on quitting and Im not getting any withdrawal (physical or emotional), also ive found that Kratom is super helpful when i need a buzz or to self-medicate but dont wanna fuck up my stomach. sucks to give up weed when i have so many good memories with my best friends on it and when its gotten me through some of the toughest times in my life, but I know it will be best to stay off it and to develop healthier ways of coping. I just watched a few of your videos and they really made me feel less alone and motivated to beat this shit. thank u so much for being vulnerable and sharing your story, I feel like its easy for people to belittle it by just calling you a dumb stoner but this shit is real
FUCK YES! Kratom for the WIN. Also, during an episode, Kratom was the ONLY drug that stopped the abdominal pain. It’s truly a gift from God. Finally I found a comment on the cannabis hyperemisis shit speaking on Kratom. My post in the subreddit was the first post entioning Kratom I’ve ever seen

LISTEN brother, our stories are so similar it would shock you ! My heart goes out to you all I'm going to say is I think I have caused myself permanent lung damage not deadly but I have stopped and have phlegm still flyout of my lungs 100% all the same symptoms you have same struggles all of it to the point were I now have been diagnosed with high blood pressure 2 years ago after a 8 year military infantry carrier best shape of my life these things were happening to me it cost me me a lot I wont say what I was valuing but I' will say nicotine was 1 of them I'm sure you can guess the other be careful be safe something is not right something is wrong good luck if you only knew how much me and you are alike it would shock you from personality to symptoms good luck truly .
Vaping * sorry about grammar on phone good luck
Please go into more depth on nicotine. I can’t understand what you were trying to say. Tell me everything you know about nicotine and its relation to CHS, I really need others opinions
@@trevormohan1768 Trevor; as stated in the comment above mine kindly explain.
With the nicotine I noticed it made the symptoms way worse if that's what your asking you have to stop nicotine as well for awhile to help chs I noticed through trial and error that even after stopping m.j everytime I had nicotine it made me sick you have to stop both for sometime and heal up what I'm trying to say is nicotine will make it way worse dont vape it or smoke it and and take probiotics its helps trust me I've been through it multiple times I've completely stopped now but I went through this at least 10x
Remember that seratonin effects the stomic a easy google surch will back up what I'm saying and nicotine releases plenty of seratonin
Hey, I watched your video several months back and commented. My son was diagnosed with this, so he was treated like shit in the ER's. Come to find out, he doesn't have CHS, he has Cyclic Vomitting syndrome and it looks pretty much the same. After he was put on medication for it, (amitriptilyne plus over the counter COQ10), the first night he took it, he woke up not sick the next morning after months of continuous sickness, vomitting, weakness and stomach pain. It sent him into acute kidney failure, so if there is anything you can do, drink a gatorade each day. But also talk to your doctor about cyclic vomiting syndrome.
Amanda Exner Hey, thanks for your response! I will definitely be on the lookout for a CVS diagnosis but the docs need me to be completely THC free for 3 consecutive months which I haven’t quite gotten to yet. I hope you don’t mind if I ask a couple questions about your son. When and how did he initially find out he had acute kidney failure and what were his symptoms of it specifically? I know the vomiting and diarrhea can lead to it but once he advanced to kidney failure how was it detected? Did they discover through toxicities detected through blood work or were there other factors at play? Were you already in the hospital when they discovered this and also how soon after his initial CHS diagnosis did this happen. Lastly, what is his treatment plan for recovery and is he doing better now? Kidney health is something I worry about in this entire scenario so all the details you could provide around that whole situation would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks ahead of time and I hope all is well with your son.
@@thechsjournal3734 Anything I can do to help I would be grateful to. So ask away.!!! I hate to see anyone with either, whether it's CHS or CVS. You remind me of my son so much and even look like him and act like him!! But anyway, the longer you have CVS, it can develop into coalescence, meaning you never have a break from the symptoms. (they don't stop and continue) That is what happened to my son, so he became malnutrioned and chronically dehyrated which is very dangerous and starts breaking down all body systems. He could be in "fair" condition and before you knew it, in a full blown state of vomitting and severe abdominal pain. You have to get your GFR tested, (his went down to a kidney function of 22) in an acute attack, and his creatinine levels were over 3.30 (I can't remember the specific number). The most important thing is to make sure you are getiting enough electrolytes which I know can be hard when you are always nauseated or vomiting. That doesn't mean just water, that means Gatorade, something with sugar in it or pedialyte., every single day even if you don't feel really sick, so that way your body is stocked up for the next episode. This is imperative to avoiding all kinds of very severe complications. EVERY doctor or ER Doctor that attended to him, blamed it on the weed and sent him on his way, and I really can't tell you the severe hell we went through trying ot keep him alive without proper medical care. IF they won't diagnose you there are steps you can take to try and help without any prescription medication and only taking the supplements needed. You can look up "Doctor Boles - the mitococktail" to get a list of the over the counter supplements you will need for cyclic vomitting. Those alone can work for a lot of people. But some people need a prescription, anti-migraine medication...the one my son is taking is amitriptiline, (whixh is also a tricyclic antidepressant but it works on the nervous system for migraines) and he takes it with the COQ10. You can also take L- Carnitine. But go to Doctor Boles site to get the exact doses. So anyway, my son could not stop smoking pot either, and he stlill does though he cut down....because ---- taga!! When he started on the right medications, he got a new life....now he has an episode every six months, as opposed to every single day!! The medicine worked miracles for him..I really don't beleive that he would have lived if just one doctor didn't write that script for him. So other signs, are paleness, weakness, confusion, lethargy, trouble concentrating, anxiety, panic attacks, My son also had fainting spells, abnormal blood pressure reading like 100 over 30, or high blood pressure during episodes. If you can, join this group on facebook. Both me and my son joined it and they have so much information, plus you won't feel so alone. www. facebook.com/ groups/cvsgroup/ It's a very active group. Just don't give up and stay hydrated with electrolytes not just water. Do you drink tons of water? That is a symptom of CVS during episodes of vomiting, but it can also hurt because water has no electrolytes in it anymore. Unless they are added in.
PS...Scolding hot showers are also a sign of cyclic vomiting, not just CHS. And ithere can be a lot of triggers, but the most common ones, are getting over heated, over tired, fasting, positive or negative stress, cheese, MSG, chocolate, dairy, and people have other food triggers. Allergies are also a trigger too for some people. It's also assoicated with abdominal epilepsy or another name for it is autonomic epilepsy. So any autonomic system can be affected if this is the underlying cause for you, which it is for a lot of people.
I'm trying to make sure I answer all of your questions...his other symptoms of kidney damage were blood in the urine and severe lower back pain. He was gaunt, his face sunk in, black under his eyes and looking like a skeleton. The bottom of his spine swelled out about two inches when he went into acute kidney failure. They finally admitted him into the hospital and he had to be on an IV drop for days with no food, because he was also in an acute episode of CVS. It wasm't until he was released that he saw a fill in doctor for his regular doctor that wrote the script that saved him. I think his regular doctor hates us now because she was wrong and someone else successfully helped him. Every doctor I brought him to was completely unethical, rude and dismissing of him. I lost my trust in any mainstream doctor at this point. I had to call hospital advocates, so do that if you have to! Do your research and advocate for yourself...becaisee we all basically have to be our own best doctors these day! They need to stop and relaly listen to you. Most doctors have maybe only read a pamphlet or a couple studies on CVS and it doesn't panit the entire picture at all. It was a month or two after I responded on your other post that he almost died before they took it serious.

9 months in I feel your pain bro,Stop smoking still no change starting to wonder if this permanent 😔 Vomiting once every 3 weeks now, witch is a big change from vomiting every Nite.......This worse thing I ever experienced
How are you doing with it now?
I've had chs for the last 16 years and been misdiagnosed with gastroparesis so never thought about chs I've never denied smoking weed to doctors and a few doctors told me cannabis would help it was only yesterday while I was in hospital for abdominal pain vomiting and severely dehydrated an Irish doctor mentioned c.h.s to me and now seeing ur vids I know this is what's happening im on my first day of stopping smoking I'm 31 now and my problems started at 15 I've had misdiagnosis so many times that over the years but now I no it's chs I can start to get it sorted thanks for the info
Yo my man you could definitely help me out, so I’m 17 atm and I’ve been throwing up stomach acid p much every other day at least for the past like year and I’m just now seeing a lot about Chs and I definitely hit my pen the whole day and take bowls after school. U got any advice to help my mornings or just anything since u have had it around my age and u have dealt with it since
@@Nicholas-dl6sb the only thing that really works is hot water for me pain killers never worked or any medication tbh it has just got worse over the years not in a million years did I put it down to bud since stopping smoking all together 3 days ago the last 2 day are the first 2 in many years I haven't woke up with pain and vomiting I hate the fact I can't smoke weed anymore but it's the only thing that really works I started to get kidney failure and there only functioning at 50% I have to go back for a check on the 7th of Feb to see if they are repairing scary shit bro imagine how stupid I would have looked dying from something cause by smoking weed I love the stuff but it's just not worth it to me any more
@@samboy8780 I’ve tried taking a hot shower this morning and drinking sips of water but it kinda just pushes it off then I feel bad again, is it best to just first thing ina morning to dry heave/ throw up stomach acid or is it better to try and get through it. Previous days I just yack and then feel much better and I go on wit my day
@@Nicholas-dl6sb your describing how it started with me but it gets worse were it just goes on for days I use to smoke a joint and drink original Lucozade in a red hot bath and it actually made me feel better if you can try not to be puke as that's what causes the dehydration witch leads to kidney failure it's hard when it just feel like there's something In ur stomach you need to get out but if you can ride it out it's better I just got to the point the pain was too much too often and the weight loss is a joke the only real way to stop it is to stop having weed altogether I'm gutted there's no other way round it I love being stoned man
@@samboy8780 so it’s just the throwing up that causes dehydration right? Also is there a certain type of weed or did u try switching it up cause I mostly hit carts cause I’m at school or home or whatever but I’m not sure I’ve just heard some things about maybe something in the distillate that causes it
How are you now?
I'm an old fart and I never heard of anyone developing CHS over time until recently. But I've personally seen people react by vomiting the first time they try it, and those people react the same way every time. Also, if you experience paranoia, depression or anxiety, you won't suddenly have a good experience with repetition. Weed definitely doesn't agree with some people. But I also wonder about a lot of the products now available. The purity standards for legal weed as far as insect parts go may be ensuring that weed is instead contaminated by pesticides, which may be worse than the bugs. Other contaminants may be involved, and there are also products which have only recently been widely available that are incredibly concentrated. Vitamin E in pens has definitely killed people, and there are a lot of unregulated pens out there. Even the approved products may have poor quality control. Some of them are entirely counterfeit and contain no cannabis at all. Pens may also be vaporizing plastics, heavy metals or some other contaminant from it's components. It's fairly certain that there are multiple dangers in the current products and that they aren't well regulated. I'm all for legalization, but there has to be regulation and quality control.
I’ve had these episodes a lot before now I’m trying to cut down a lot on my smoking. Hopefully I don’t have to quit for good? Not sure if it will help if I just smoke a few times a month ?
For now until they find a cure, you have to stop for good. You are severely damaging your body when you have an episode and can legit die during them as well.
Hay man am in so much pain right now I haven’t smoked for 3 days I have suffered for a long time with this it’s ruined certain aspects of my life and am fed up now bro I need to change
Skinnydemon I’m right there with you partner 4 days into diagnoses, and I feel like so much for me has gone downhill already.. will I ever be able to use my medicine again?? Who knows...
@@jaydenmays7011 what would you do if the answer was no?
Addiction is not a weakness, ok? Addiction is NOT our natural state. Addiction does not mean you aren't a strong person- that's a huge misconception.
Addiction is not a personality trait- that's a misconception.
Addiction is a treatable disorder. You dont think people with disorders are sick because they're weak do you? A reasonable person would say, no. Keep this in mind.
Hey, do you remember how severe your first episode was? Was it very severe? I went to the ER yesterday for slight nausea for the last 3 days. Not because I couldn't keep anything down I just wanted some nausea medication because the over the counter stuff around the house didn't do anything for me. My eating habits are equally as bad as yours though my eating patterns are better (i eat a small breakfast and I eat both lunch and dinner) I've taken the nausea meds this morning I woke up kind of early and couldn't get back to sleep I wasn't nauseous yet I just took it to make sure as I work today. I think it could be but also the doctor kind of shut his eyes to any other possibility as soon as I told him I smoke. Just made me kind of nervous that he might be jumping the gun a bit and I have a 13 month old son (so I'm not quitting unless I have to, but i am willing lol) idk kinda just feels like he had tunnel vision, they took blood and haven't told me really anything about my blood work although it was just yesterday. But today I'm feeling fine a slight cramp in my stomach (I think because I was afraid of making the nausea worse though only 1 of the 3 times I threw up was right after dinner on the first night. So I just think he was wrong

Been struggling with this now, I don’t smoke I only take edibles. And it’s exhausting at this point, the one thing that keeps me sane is making me ill
Dude I’m going through this rn and I don’t know wtf I’m doing at this point I just like getting high too much
PLEASE HELP I've gotten high from marijuana multiple times daily for over a year and I have severe abdominal pain, but I have not experienced nausea or vomiting vomiting. The abdominal pain usually completely goes away when I'm in a hot bath, but it will come back as soon as I get out. The pain will extend to me chest and back sometimes and often seems to hurt more on my right side.. My digestive system seems to not be working properly, and I am experiencing chronic diarrhea, bloating, and sometimes constipation. I've been to the ER multiple times and nobody find anything wrong with me. I've researched everything it could be in an attempt to self-diagnose and I've concluded that I could have cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome without the nausea and vomiting. Any insight from someone more knowledgeable would be greatly appreciated

If you put the weed down and you feel better than it was something with the weed. What exactly idk, in the future could they make weed that doesn’t make people sick idk. But for right now if stopping makes you feel better? Why wouldn’t you stop? None of us like being this sick, it’s mentally breaking me down I feel like I’ve been torturing myself for years now. If you can’t start you can stop!! Wish me luck I’m currently going though a vomiting episode, this is my third day of throwing up and third day of no weed
The vape pens may be contributing, but I only smoke flower and have experienced two severe episodes of CHS. Lung disease is a whole different story.

How you doing bro? Still holding in there?
How are you doing now?
yo I’m 16 years old, I’ve only been smoking for 2 months, I was smoking about 2.5 grams a day all day every day. Suddenly one morning I woke up vomiting at around 6am. At first I thought I was just sick. But then it continued for a couple of days. And I continued to smoke bongs. I then woke up on day 2 and vomited again. The pain was unbearable, so my girlfriend drove me to the hospital at 5am. They just told me it was gastro and sent me home. The next day I woke up agin but earlier around 4:40 it the vomiting was much was and the pain was also. So I went back to hospital they did some tests and seen I was severely dehydrated so they put me on a drip, later that day I had a CT scan, Ultrasound, Urine Sample, Blood Test. Nothing was found. So they discharged me, i then went home and was feeling okay that night, I then woke up again and had to go the hospital, I’ve been here for 4 days i it’s now Wednesday 2nd of October I haven’t smoked since the 28th and I’m still having the symptoms and pain of chs I was just wondering if there is any answers on how long this pain will last for. This is by far the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life and I just want it all to end. That’s what point I’m at. Just wondering how long it takes for symptoms to disappear, please I’m desperate for answers

I suffered from CHS for years and the only thing that made it stop was to completely stop smoking weed unfortunately... I stopped smoking weed and the sickness, the hot showers, the sulphur burps and most of all THE PAIN all gone. It’s now been a year and a half since and all good, no signs of any symptoms.

I suffer from depression, anxiety and PTSD, and the only thing that helps is weed, I’m afraid if i can’t take weed anymore that i’m gonna start a scarier and more dangerous habit, what do I do if weed helps, but it makes me sick?
I was diagnosed with CHS yesterday. Don’t really know what to do or if it’s even CHS, I’m very confused, I was hospitalized three times this week with excruciating abdomen pain, and extremely bad nausea. The doctors told me to completely stop smoking, I smoked a little stinger yesterday, and felt completely fine. I guess I’m just wondering, how much weed can someone with CHS smoke before it effects their health continuously? Do I have to stop completely, and if so for how long do I have to stop?
also, is it uncontrollable vomiting? I also have Bulimia, which means I’m not constantly vomiting, i force myself to vomit whenever I feel extremely nauseous, I told the doctors this and they still diagnosed me with CHS, is it possible it’s something else if I’m not vomiting uncontrollably?
@@ExodusXXIV hey, I’m extremely sorry to hear you had to deal with that. Your situation is actually very interesting.. So it’s been about three years since my first episode. It really seems like research is pointing to this(please take this with a grain of salt and do your own research to back up the info): CHS causes some kind of dietary malfunction in the gut. Maybe an interference with receptors that are supposed to allow us to digest, or something else, nobody really seems to know yet. Somehow though, it has a tendency to cause gastroparesis. When I changed the way I ate, (and the time at which I ate), combined with a tolerance break. it got better. I don’t have any sort of ED, but I would go without eating most of the day quite often and then eat random junk or fast food late at night. I still kinda do that but not nearly as bad. Nowadays, I try to eat breakfast (which really sucks because I have zero appetite in the mornings) and then maybe sometimes have lunch but if I skip, then I eat dinner and I try to stop eating at least a couple hours before I sleep. I don’t always follow my rule and sometimes i still feel sick in the morning *prodromal symptoms* but I don’t vomit. I’m able to smoke, though. I don’t use any form of concentrates anymore but I do smoke flower on a pretty regular basis.
Me too bro like my stomach hurts and I force myself to throw up and I feel better

Hey I’m going through the same shit right now. How are you doing two years later
How are you doing??
Update please?
this is crazy I was just vomiting for 2 days straight
I stopped smoking because it felt like my lungs and body felt twisted and kept on looking into this thing called chs but I'm not really sure. Haven't smoke for almost 2 weeks but still feel like shit especially in my head and stomach. I've been meditating eating chicken broth but lately been feeling tired of feeling it with all the anxiety and depression that I'm feeling rn. Any tips that someone can tell me?
Hey man, two weeks into sobriety usually has me feeling all the same things wondering if it’ll ever even go away since it’s been so long without feeling properly good being sober. Symptoms hit me hard around that time, both physical and emotional. Do your best to remind yourself that the heaviness and exhaustion will go away with time. Try to keep your mind busy. Work is great for that.. along with physical activity. Working out is extremely helpful in mood boosting when you withdraw but I know the nausea doesn’t always allow that so work with what you can. You’ll get there 👍🏽

💯💯💯💯 the only cure is to stop smoking
So you talk about oils and vaping which I think we all agree has had studies done saying that vaping THC oil‘s is clearly bad for you but also inhaling anything is bad for you. When I got my CHS diagnose it was after I would drink alcohol I don’t really smoke concentrates ever and I’ve just stuck to weed. I really think it’s just from too much THC intake. Carts are terrible for you and EVERYONE go to Dope As Yola channel he has a video on carts and it’s amazing. He tests them and everything.

I am convinced my in alcohol too. How you doing 3 years down the road?
If I smoke regular bud I don't get high enough and I get sick. A quick hit from a pen and I'm straight. Eating is important because a hunger attack is intolarable
Is it possible to diagnose it through blood test or urine??

What I've learned in the past few months after another episode: Cannabis blocks the TRPV1 receptors in your stomach. When these receptors are blocked, this produces the same effects as being poisoned. This tells your stomach to vomit everything up as a defense mechanism. So how do we reactivate these TRPV1 receptors? With heat. That is why we are drawn to very hot showers. That is why doctors in the emergency room will recommend capsaicin cream. Capsaicin is the active component in chili that gives it it's heat. I'm not a doctor, im just trying to figure out what might help. In theory, eating more chili and spicy foods that are known to reactivate these TRPV1 receptors may help, But be careful of foods with pepper, as pepper is known to aggravate chs symptoms. Also, a slightly higher acidic diet can help reactivate these receptors, a keto diet, taking low dose aspirin, drinks with higher acidity such as kombucha, in theory these things may help. Again, I am no doctor, just a fellow sufferer of this horrible illness that would love to smoke again, even if it's only once or twice a week or so. My personal experience, stay away from concentrates. Minimize your use, if you have the willpower to quit, then by all means do so. In the mean time, I hope this helps. Only time will tell. I wish you all the best and give you all my love.
Thank so much bro,I bin suffering gonna this.
I think honestly if you have had CHS you can never smoke weed again the chances are it will come back I had a 10 year break and it still came back
Heartbreaking to hear this...
Nah can’t smoke for 20 years that’s how much it takes for lungs to heal 🤦♂️fuck me but I guess it’s for the better
Been blazing since 2001 still blazing stronger in 2024 no vapes tho
Will CHS return if I smoke flower and not pen again , the cause of CHS for me was “Stiizy Pen” do I have to quit or will I be okay to smoke flower here and there ?
I never smoked pens. Didn’t like em. I smoked flower everyday almost all day from age 15-23. I started feeling the symptoms at age 22. It was the flower that did it for me. It’s because of the THC. High THC use is what causes it whether it’s flower or concentrates
Yes it will come back I have just had a 10 year break and it came back within two years
@@dylanthedyslexicvillain4294 when you picked it pack up again after 10 years, were you smoking heavily for the two years?
@@Elias.exe. Hi I was smoking around 2 to 3 joints today
Dude, be careful taking Benzodiazepines, that is a whole different world of pain you definitely don't want to experience if you become reliant. Are you still taking Valium?
Stomach issues, anxiety, depression are all caused by the excess weed intake. One trick is to get rid of all of your smoking stuff that triggers smoking. Go clean and save yourself bro!

Any updates on your situation?
Hi! Yeah, I’m doing much better but still have stomach and digestive issues. I do still smoke but it’s a lot more heavily moderated and I typically stay away from anything that isn’t just flower. I sometimes reach my prodrome symptoms but on those days I’m able to recognize it and cut my intake short and prevent it from escalating. Haven’t had to visit the ER in over a year
@@thechsjournal3734 thanks for your honesty bro im glad your atleast doing good man your page helped me alot im going towards a month clean now and Im glad I found your videos

I got it just from good medical flower
I agree I’ve never used a pen but heavy smoking was my thing...Really messed me up even the way my food digest still never came back to normal,God help up all 😔
Nah either way vaping has more then 7,000 chemicals so basically radiation in your lungs and stomach battery contaminates the oil that’s why u start having higher tolerance just straight up weed is good but now I drink it in tea it’s way better bro
