Six Long Island high school students were reportedly hospitalized after eating candy that contained marijuana. The students, all from Sachem High School North, were transported to Stony Brook Hospital on Friday morning, ABC7 reports. They apparently ate weed candy that made them feel "uncomfortable." According to CBS New York, the students "knew what they were ingesting" and the matter is not being investigated as a criminal case. Sachem Superintendent Dr. Ken Graham said the students are feeling better. A spokesperson for the school district told ABC7 that one student brought in the candy bar and shared it with others. It was labeled as containing marijuana. Graham said the school is reviewing the situation and will address it appropriately. "We encourage all parents to have conversations with their children about making healthy choices," Graham told CBS. "Our schools are fortunate to have a number of resources available to support the well being of students."

It's fuckin weed, whats your resources? Somewhere to lay down for a bit, some water and maybe a snack.
I can imagine though, I've a pretty heavy daily smoker and there are some edibles that wreck me, now with ZERO tolerance, LOL.
Kids need to do their homework and experiment on weekends to figure out what works during school or not.

I used to eat weed all the time in high school and every time it hit me I would always say to myself mother of God what have I done! It was like a time bomb that you ate early and by 12 you'd be peaking and in the afternoon would just be totally exhausted and thinking I ate my whole stash for an algebra or french class?
I would then proceed to have the most paranoid day of my life trying to wave or glare off other students who would keep drawing attention to me and my dry mouth -stuck to my teeth- by asking me if I was stoned. Usually in a passive aggressive attempt to get me busted I used to think but then I was always very paranoid.
I always looked stoned too, I knew some people who looked basically normal after getting high, and it never affected them like it did me. Everyone else just silently buzzed while I sat there gripping my desk like Hunter S Thomson in a Casino.
I remember though once a teacher was so obviously on to me I proceeded to write the best essay of my life just to convince him I was normal and hide behind my writing.
I always made the mistake of repeating the mistake again and again but I never once failed to regret getting high in high school!

I'm not really surprised, people call 911 when experiencing paranoia on a psychedelic all the time, and powerful edibles may as well be a psychedelic for those with low tolerance
This reminds me of a time in high school when this kid got too high with us and thought he was having an allergic reaction and his throat was closing up...dude just got too high, not sure what else to say, it was self induced, and theres not much you can do about it besides wait it out
It just sucks that most people will blame the substance as opposed to focusing on the kids irresponsible behavior and inability to handle the repercussions of their actions

We're assuming it was that notorious, gateway drug, and not something more serious.
