Contact high
The sensation of intoxication one gets from being
proximate to someone who is already intoxicated, most often someone who is high on hallucinogenic drugs. This is not necessarily from the
second-hand smoke of marijuana, as is often suggested, but moreso it is the feeling of being
disconcerted by an intoxicated person's actions, gestures, word usage, perspiration and pupil dilation.

A contact high occurs when one becomes high when he or she is near someone who is currently
under the influence of some sort of
illegal drug, even if the person
receiving the contact high has not recently taken any drugs.
Example:
Amy was high when I saw her. After talking to her for only a few
seconds, I got
a major contact high.

Getting high by being around someone who is currently smoking some sort of drug such as weed. From
inhaling the smoke you also get high without actually smoking anything.

second-hand smoke that results from being in close
proximity to people who are smoking drugs-usually weed- without actually participating in the act of smoking
Widely believed to be
mythological
Example:
"Dude, I got such a good contact high when you guys were
hotboxing the car."

No, you didn't...you didn't even hit the blunt. You're just
a lame ass."

A contact high is typically what is referred to when a person who is not smoking an illegal substance is near others who are and becomes high from
inhaling the smoke that is in the air. It is,
afterall, the inhaling of the drug that causes the high. Smoke does not differntiate between the person actually doing the smoking and those who are nearby not participating. Additionally, the term is now being used to describe other non
illegal drug use situations.
Example:
If you take a sub-lingual medication and then kiss someone they will be absorbing that medication through their tongue just as you had and result in a contact high. Or the use of larger inhalers used for vasodialation, as in
asthma, or
the like, can also cause others in the room to have their lungs affected as a result. Not all of the drug, in any of these circumstances, is completely
absorbed by the intended user and therefore can and often does affect a bystander.

If
you blow smoke in someone's face, without them actually
toking, enough smoke can get them "contact" high, meaning that they came into contact with THC through the second hand smoke, and thus, became high. Also, the contact high usually never shows up on a
drug test..
Example:
Mike got his cat contact high by bringing him into the bathroom and
toking on
two flat blunts.
