What is crossfaded?

Crossfaded refers to the state of being intoxicated from simultaneously using alcohol and cannabis. This combination can produce unpredictable and amplified effects compared to using either substance alone. The experience and level of risk associated with being crossfaded vary greatly depending on individual tolerance, dosage of each substance, and other factors.

Some potential effects and risks include:

• Increased Impairment: Both alcohol and cannabis can impair cognitive and motor functions. Combining them can lead to significantly reduced coordination, judgment, and reaction time, increasing the risk of accidents and injuries.
• Nausea and Vomiting: The combination can disrupt the digestive system, potentially leading to nausea, vomiting, and dehydration.
• Anxiety and Panic: Some individuals experience increased anxiety, paranoia, or panic attacks when crossfaded. This is especially true for those with a history of anxiety or panic disorders.
• Green Out: A "green%20out" is a term often used to describe a negative reaction to cannabis, which can be intensified when combined with alcohol. Symptoms may include dizziness, sweating, and feeling faint.
• Overdose Risk: While neither alcohol nor cannabis are typically fatal on their own (in reasonable doses), combining them can increase the risk of alcohol poisoning.
• Blackouts: The combined effects can increase the likelihood of experiencing blackouts or memory loss.

Due to the unpredictable nature and potential risks, caution is advised when considering combining alcohol and cannabis. If you choose to combine these substances, it's crucial to do so responsibly and in moderation. Starting with low doses of each substance and allowing time to feel the effects is recommended. Having a sober friend present can also be helpful. It is important to know your limits and respect them.
