"Chronic cannabis users are at risk of experiencing a horrifying new condition that is being reported at hospitals across the country. 'Scromiting,' doctors say, is becoming an all-too-familiar site at emergency rooms, with patients 'screaming and vomiting' as they turn up for help."

More bad news for the notion that pot is safe and great. The drugs build up in your brain and cause vomiting and screaming. Chime: but, but, but, big pharma!

The abuse of anything can have negative aspects. Too much alcohol to too much sugar.

Another victim of the Daily Fail, I see.

OP, there's no need for you to go to the ER. Go do something productive for an hour, and you'll recover.

Then just stay away from that stuff.

Otherwise known as "Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome (CHS)", which causes symptoms ranging from severe stomach pain, nausea, vomiting and the impulse to take hot showers.

I wonder that they did not think of this concerning the little girl's symptoms in the movie, The Exorcist. Of course, she did not really scream while vomiting, but cursed, but it is much the same thing.

People have been consuming cannabis for centuries. So if it's a "new condition", there must be something else involved.
