This is interesting to me, because Youngest had pretty horrible reactions to smoking pot, she became extremely paranoid and was convinced she was going to die. One episode was so bad I took her to the ER, convinced someone had laced the pot with something else, but all they found when testing her was THC. The doctor told me that some people just have that reaction to THC. "Some people" might just mean, people with certain mental illnesses?
"Normal" pot smokers I have known just get mellow.
