High on Formaldehyde
#11199389 - 10/07/09 09:28 AM (14 years, 5 months ago) |

In my Anatomy class we have 2 cadavers to work on and learn the internal body. Well my lab is 2 hours long, and after being in there I think I got high. It was so weird. All my words wouldn't come out right. It felt like somewhere between the high from tripping (no visuals) and weed. Time went by really slow too. I didn't like the feeling at all. Has this happened to anyone else before or am I just crazy?
-------------------- People say that what we're all seeking is a meaning for life. I don't think that's what we're really seeking. I think what we're seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances within our own innermost being and reality, so we can actually feel the rapture of being alive.

I think you had a flashback. Intense situations tend to trigger them, and being around corpses being dissected would qualify as intense.
If the concentration of formaldehyde vapor was up to a level of concern, you would have been extremely uncomfortable.
Formaldehyde is a serious poison.

Thanks for the input.
I never though flashback. Gory things don't really bother me though.

Exactly.
And they don't use formaldehyde anymore, they use formalin. I used to work with the stuff on a daily basis. If you are around too high of a concentration the worst it does is give you a really bad headache, make you nauseous, and fixes the cells in the lining of your nose. Fixes means it immediately kills the cells and stops all processes within them... aka you loose your sense of smell for a few days to a week.
Edit: apparently I was misinformed. I was told that they stopped using formaldehyde (because it's a carcinogen) and started using formalin in it's place. Turns out formalin is just formaldehyde mixed with water.

well that would be the explenation for a flashback? random brain connection that actually shouldn't fire up = flashback
atleast that would be the explenation i'd make up too

Formaldehyde is nasty but good for making Methylamine which in turn is handy for making lots of interesting things.

It's also handy for making rats stiff as a board. They were fixing a whole rat in the lab one day and it's tail was so stiff you could have thrown the thing at a dart board and it would have stuck in.

I've had flashbacks after using salvia a decent amount. It was pretty bad too because they were just as intense. For example, I was in the back seat of a car and a friend to my left in the middle seat was telling me to get out, while another friend outside the car holding the door open was saying to stay. This somehow triggered an intense moment of indecision, similar to how I feel like I don't know what to do on salvia(theres no way out, etc), which lead to a complete breakdown of reality for at least 10 seconds where I just felt like the salvia gravity was pushing me back and forth.
I think this may be different, because the salvia receptor(kappa opoid) is involved in stress, so it may make sense that it could bring back an intense trip under the right type of stress.
Just thought I'd post my experience because before that I didn't really believe in flashbacks either.

it makes sense to me. i think it might have been because i had similar feelings to tripping/being high. who knows though..

How much incorrect info have you crammed into your brain?
To the Op.
Sounds like an anxiety attack, which oculd also be considered a "flashback", just depends on how you look at it.

yeah i actually knew a guy that sold it, oh later felt bad cause he thought PCP was that. so when it comes down to it no body complained smoking that stuff got them ripped , just in a really unhealthy way SO REALLY STFU i speak from experience unlike alot of other people on here.
its kinda stupid to not think that people would take the misunderstanding seriously and actually do that. the funny thing is that guy has a masters in bio. he also took Ketamine from the lab , he used to have to inject pigs with K to do surgical work.
im sure other people with acess to it have sold it before. also a good thing from the vet is Isoflurane tho i dont suggest using often maybe just one time on a madcap

Yeah it's a myth.. People smoke PCP. And formaldehyde is just a medium which people use to cut the drug and dose it, such as a dipped cigarette. But formaldehyde alone won't get you high at all. You probably had a decent flashback. It happens to the best of us.

No, formadehyde IS NOT used to cut PCP. The term "Embalming fluid" is just an old slang term for PCP.

ugh unless someone actually takes embalming fluid and sells it as PCP. the same way people have taken other things and said they were something else and sold them.

First of all, no. You're wrong. Embalming fluid is slang for PCP. I don't doubt that some idiots dip cigarettes in embalming fluid and sell it to people, but formaldehyde will NOT get you high.
Smoking formaldehyde will just give you cancer and fix your lung tissue. You have no idea how incredibly bad it is for you. You must have missed the part where I said it "causes instant cell death"
And just because someone has their masters in biology doesn't mean they know shit about drugs. I've met some really dumb people in the bio masters program.

yeah im sure getting brain damage from embalming fluid has psychological effects im not saying its pleasant or a good feeling thing huffing paint getting you high kinda so does glue im sure its a similar feeling tho i dont know for a fact which i already said but the people that smoked it said it has a effects. im going by peoples experience whats your basis
tho im sure it doesnt hit like PCP and im glad you acknowledge that an uninformed bio student could totally obtain embalming fluid from a lab or college lab

He's just telling stories to cover his first comment.
This guy here read, learned and is now a little smarter than he was before. It's a shame njdood doesn't deal with his mistakes the same way. Though it does supply the lolz.

Man I've heard bio students - PhD candidates at that - say some of the stupidest shit I've ever heard about drugs. I would think the nature being a biologist would make them want to look more into how things work rather than taking some fucktard's word for it, but no, it doesn't work like that.
