Headlock (noun) — cannabis-specific
Definition: A cannabis-induced state where the mind remains clear and aware, but the head experiences intense physical discomfort or fatigue, typically occurring right before greening out.
Justification: “Headlock deserves its own word because it names a common cannabis experience where mental clarity remains intact while physical distress sets in, a state that existing terms like ‘high’ or ‘greening out’ fail to distinguish.”
