Reports of JWH018 and other incensed drug abuse cases are moderately low even though rampant selling of herbal smoke blends is evident in the market. This is mainly because lesser people are aware of the possible signs of abuse. Most weed users do not even complain any drug abuse effects from these kinds of substances. Thus, the suppose-to-be societal crisis becomes non-existent because nobody is paying attention to it.
Common Signs of JWH018 Abuse
Usually, those who abuse drugs or any substance do not admit that it causes a negative impact in their lives. If that is the case, it is vital for the surrounding families and friends to identify and understand the probable signs of abuse. Recognizing this following information about drug abuse helps in confronting the problem at hand.
- Negligence of responsibilities whether in school, house or work due to drug use.
- Occurrence of relationship problems with a partner, family members, employer, colleagues and even with friends.
- Always running into legal troubles like robbery to sustain drug use, disorderly behavior and violence.
- Noticeable demonstration of risk-taking behaviors such as driving when on drugs, unsafe sex and use of dirty paraphernalia.
- Drug addiction or compulsively use of drugs despite the awareness of its dangers and risks.
JWH018 Addiction Symptoms
Although various substances give different kinds of effects, signs of addiction are all the same no matter what it is. Here are the usual addiction symptoms that manifests to during drug abuse.
1. Built up drug tolerance.
The user increases the dosage of drugs to experience the same effect when drug is taken in small amounts. Due to frequent use, the body’s response to drug decreases. As a result, taking large doses is inevitable to achieve the desired experience.
2. Drug dependence.
Through the course of time and increase in frequency of use, the body becomes dependent on the drug itself. Consequently, the user cannot function normally when there is no drug. Abruptly stopping the use of the drug may result to appearance of withdrawal symptoms. In the end, the user continues to abuse drugs to avoid the withdrawal syndrome.
3. Uncontrollable drug use.
Simply means, the user do drugs quite often even more than he has planned. He cannot stop himself due to the urge of wanting more.
4. Obsession towards incensed drugs (K2, Spice, etc).
The user tends to spend most of the time thinking about the drug, how to procure it, when to use it again, possible new ways to heighten the effects and such. It is more like the user’s life revolves around the drug only.
5. Lost of interest with usual favorite activities.
This means abandoning the usual hobbies, interests, sports and activities. The user tends to detach himself from the society and stays lock up in his room or in a place where he usually use the drug.
JWH018 (K2 and Incensed Drug) Abuse Effects
All types of drugs including herbal smoke blends have one thing in common; they alter the brain’s function in controlling emotions, judgment, motivation, memory and learning. The best indicative factor in determining if they abuse drugs such as JWH018 is the manifestation of withdrawal symptoms. Reported drug abuse effects include:
- Profuse sweating during the day and especially at night
- Internal restlessness
- Palpitations and increase blood pressure
- Insomnia
- Headache
- Diarrhea
- Nausea and vomiting
- Tremors and in rare cases seizures
- Anxiety and paranoia without reason
- Manic episodes (hyperactivity, agitation)
- Sudden emotional and personality changes
- Feeling of depression and desperation.
In reality, the most notable effect of drug abuse is actually denial. It is the most evident sign of abuse. The mind decreases its ability to rationalize due to the increase urge of using these herbal smoke blends. It maybe one of the main reasons why there are lesser reports of drug abuse cases. Users are not aware that they already addicted to it. The lack of awareness about drug abuse result to continues use of these legal incensed drugs.

Thanks for this. JWH-018 addiction is possible. I got kicked out of my house recently because my parents found bags of it in my room for the second time. I spent sooo much money on it. It just makes me live life on a day to day basis. The worst thing is, I lied to myself! I guess I didn’t even realize I was either. I also lied to my parents, friends, and even my psychiatrist! I have been putting almost everyone around me at risk. It took me awhile to admit that I do have an addiction problem, but I’m working on it now. I’m gonna stop using this s*** and remember what its like to live honestly and responsibly.
My 17 year old has been using K2 for awhile. He ended up in the emergency room with drug induced psychoses. Spent 2.5 weeks in a psychiatric hospital. Came home and continue to use. he currently is incarserated for violated probation by admitting to drug use, We are in the process of seeking treatment . This stuff is bad news and it has taken my son’s teen years away from him. Unfortunately it is legal,what is wrong with peoples morality.
im 20 almost 21…ive been smoking k2 and other herbal incence for about a year now, i didnt think it would be addicting at first because i didnt feel the need for it and it wasnt becoming a habbit. i recently finished college in jan and moved back in wit my parents until i found a job and got on my feet. it was 4 months b4 i found a job and during that time i had nothing to do except sit at home, this is when my habbit really started to get worse. i noticed myself spending almost every dollor i had on it, then asking to borrow more money to get more, also nearly maxing out a new credit card i got while at school, then i noticed i would get nervious and have extrem anxiety around ppl i wasnt used to being aroung…then it moved to potitial sex partner i still dont know y…i kno i didnt have this trouble be 4 using this….also i kind of feel axiety when i dont have it or am running low…this has to be a sure sign of atleast a mental addiction, i have a job now and dont spend as much on it…but i still smoke it everyday…its like its all i think about…or ill plan on smoking and doing something rather then jus doing what i wanted to do… and i noticed an increase in mucus, it also feel like i dont have as much lung compacity i also have notice slight pains and chest discomforts, sometimes my throat feel swollen from the inside and tight…i kno this cant be good for me but i cant quit…im pretty sure its bad and im seeing signs but yet i want to roll up a blunt right now as i type this comment lol….i need a way to slow down…but its so damn easy to get…its cheap and i have plenty of money now that i have a job…i jus counted my roaches and i have nearly a 100 and thats jus what i smoke in my room…i smoke in my car sometime and i throw them out so i cant count those…but i really want to quit..i always think bout cancer or copd something like that happening to me even tho im young…but i kno its a problem now…hopefully this will help…but i want to hear from others jus anyone write what u think…
hey jay the best way to get yourself off the jwh is to flush what you have and smoke marijuana intell you no longer crave a high. Know that you will still probably want it for some time and the marijuana high wont give you the same effects. When you finially get off it you will be much happier.
My son has been abusing JWH018. He has tried to get himself off of the drug and he was doing well until the withdrawal symptoms started. He just had a seizure and is in the hospital. Not saying its this severe in everyone, but don’t be fooled into thinking it cant happen
k2 wouldn’t be smoked if marijuana was legal. im 18 and i’ve smoked marijuana everyday for the past 2 years without any negative effects. ive kept my grades up, while working a close to part time job, and i dont let it get in the way of things. i even smoke BEFORE i do my homework because i feel like i can focus more and my thoughts are more “open”. marijuana isnt engineered or created, it simply grows in the ground and is the way it is naturally. it is not a gateway drug, ive never had the desire to do another drug in my entire life because of how bad their effect are and how addictive they are, i don’t even drink. going home and taking a few bong hits at the end of everyday is the same thing, if not better than, going home and drinking a few glasses of wine. you arent going to feel sick, your not going to get hungover, and marijuana kills less braincells than alcohol. at the same time, you aren’t out of control. youll never make an irrational decision (besides maybe eat all your food) and youll never wake up the next morning with no recollection of the night before. marijuana is entriely healthy for a person because it helps to relax your mind and opens your brain to new ideas. if u say i have an addiction, your in denial and you have never smoked it before. i know pleanty of people that have smoked it once and decided they dont like it, but thats never happened with crack.
Good friend of mine calls up from vegas aug10′: “Hey buddy, got a great opportunity for ya! Start sellin legal weed to your buddies, I got the hook-up for cheap.” I had never even heard of the stuff as I always loved hydro and never had a problem getting it. Immediately it began….. gripping me like a plague. This is some powerful stuff and the high is fantastic, but the lows are really low. Keep your head up, and shoulders back cause this shit absolutely destroys your reticular activating system.
I started k2 almost a year ago. At first I just smoke the herbal blends once a week.
Within a month warning bells should of gone off. Maybe they did and I just didn’t listen. Empty wrappers started piling up in my room, but it seemed mild. Nothig too bad. I would stop from time to time for a week or two. Then I discovered this stuff called Omega. Advertised as the “best aroma therapy available, these 1 gram crack viles cost about $40. I was doing about 1g a day of omega, and 3-5 grams of the leafy stuff. When the company I got my omega from went under, I ordered this product called Amazing Grace. As stupid as I was, I didn’t think to look the the chemical online (AM2201) and see this stuff is really bad news. From what I can tell, the skum bags selling this garbage are toying with it chemically to make it more potent and last longer. This stuff was 99.8% pure. He’res the thing about these products you got to understand, they don’t care what receptors they hit in your brain. This is why I would get panic attacks while high, be pertrified I was going to die, yet still smoke more later. Well after 1 puff of Amazing Grace, I told my mother everything. I said, litilerally, I can’t stop smoking this shit. We purged my room, thew everything out. IT was on the tip of my tounge to tell her that we should flush it down the toilet, but I didn’t.
2 hours later I was digging though the trash pulling out bags.
See i’ve done this a few times, purged everything only to have more show up at my house that I only vaugly remembering ordering. It has become obviouse that I can’t do this on my own, even my parants can only help so much.
Im 29 yrs old. I have been smoking all forms of the chemical since 2009. Here it is April 2011 and i cant quit. if i dont have it i have chronic vomiting. Cant eat, nothing sounds,taste,smells,or looks good. i have been to thr ER three times with vomiting they gave me a shot for vomiting it didnt work… told them that i use the drug an was told that it wldnt do this to me.. so ended up going back two more times 3 different doctors opinoins an even called a rehab.They said k2 wont do this to me,he said i was having opiet withdraw symptomps. i dont even know what an opiet is. but i know it is the herbal incence doing it to me.. now i need to find a doctor that will help me stop… i want to but i cant because if i dont have it i have chronic vomiting even puke blood.so i continue to smoke it till someone can help my withdraw symptoms…. it is addictave please dont use it.. an i was Dx with bronchial spam asthma.. not fun. always coughing..cant breath..
Let me share my experiance with this devilish crap. I stay in a trans. housing situation, and the place that runs it has little to no oversight. I had a roommate who was getting drunk on rum nightly, and i fell into that trap. I had heard of this stuff from the guys from the d.o.c. work release that work at the labor hall i do. They use it to circvumvent the pigs drug tests, even tho now they test for it. So like a fool, i went and tried some, that was last year in october. It was a living hell. I was always a pot head, loved to smoke, go off to work, play my xbox, play on the laptop(yeah, i didn’t blow all my money), and had savings. This crap wiped me out, and am lucky to have my pc or tv left. It was to the point it was like what i hear crack or meth addiction is. It rips your mind apart, and you need more and more.(at least thats my experiance, i have a addicive personality.)
Lucky for me, i found faith(god), and literally was delievered from that devil bs. No n.a., no detox, all on faith. Blows my mind. And got my lay revd, credientials, and now am starting my own ministry. I will say, though, it was my weakness, no one elses. That being said, how in the hell can they change the chem. structure, and it be legal still? Last time i checked coke, crack, meth, etc is the same regardless. I honestly think theres some kind of kick back effect going on to the powers that be, or some rich people have investments in making this garbage.
My Daughter smoked the stuff 3 weeks ago and still is dizzy and having headaches She feels iss going to die and she’s just not herself..can you help Michael 8483915255..thanks
so I found this shit at a head shop and decided to try it, I have been smoking it everyday for 5 weeks. I decided to stop and I got dope sick off that stuff. Im not on anything else something in it. I know what I’m talking about too because I’ve been through withdrawals before. Keep feeling like gagging then i throw up. Don’t smoke this shit daily for a few months or when you go to sleep your brain will zap.
Three days ago I tried the product Zombie Matter for the very first time. Two hits off my friend’s pipe. Two hits! I felt okay for several minutes and then laid on the floor and exclaimed “something’s wrong!” The next three hours were full of tremors, fast heart rate, fever, crying uncontrollably, throwing up, and complete and utter fear. I HONESTLY thought my heart was going to just give up and I was going to die. My fever broke and the worst of it was over. The next night I woke up at 3am feeling like it was happening all over again… I ended up having a two hour long episode of drug withdrawal. Dead serious. After smoking it once. Three days later and I am still coming down off of this drug. Here are two things- I have not enjoyed a single second of this experience. There are a lot of people who get a nice high from it and enjoy it greatly, but THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE who just don’t take to it and you won’t know which you are until you try it. So my advice… DON’T! And the second thing- maybe the people who can handle this drug want to defend it by acting like experiences such as my own are not possible, but I assure you, readers, anyone, I promise you that it can happen. Stay safe and stay away from it. Not even once!
Has anyone had any issues with being told they have kidney failure? Of course Dr.’s won’t say its caused from K2 bcus they know nothing about it.
Help….my son got hold of this. Been baker acted 3 times. How do u get this stuff out of your system
my boyfriend is addicted tothis crap. he is walking around coughing uncontrollably and wheezing and gagging all the time. it is pathetic, i hate it! he cannot sleep thru the nite w/o getting up to smoke it and takes naps thru the day, cant concentrate. his belly gets extended profusely ( dont know if its from this or not) he cant get high on weed anymore, i hate it all! I love him but the love dies when you see your loved one walk around not sure whats going on and gagging! its disgusting me an when i try to talk to him he snaps and says im treating him like shit, i am at a loss! he just left to get more, its legal in S.D. has been banned in NE and Ia, we are 10 min from SD still. never-ending bullshit, I am tired of addiction, god help us all
I used k2 for about a year. It is more addicting than cigarettes. I had to quit smoking them to continue smoking k2.
