Hey, folks, I'm wondering about your first experiences with marijuana. Last night I had the opportunity to try some but I think I got a better buzz from the secondhand smoke around me. I don't think I felt anything after I actually inhaled it firsthand and all I have to show for it now are asthma-like symptoms. How'd it work out for the rest of you?
I dont believe people get a buzz from being around other people smoking weed (unless there is a great volume of smoke in the air, like in an extreme hotbox), especially for people who have never tried it. As for your asthma-like symptoms... I have no fuckin clue how it would have effected you like that from just being around it. I'd find a close friend who has experience with marijuana to try it with, one on one. You might like it, or you might not. I personally have always enjoyed it, which is why I keep on smokin it right? But how would you know if you got a better buzz from being around it if you have never actually inhaled it upfront? Enjoy. =] Peace
Contact Buzzes ARE real, especially if you get smoke blown in your face. I know a lot of people who don't smoke that get a buzz when I do around them.
The first time I ever tried marijuana I did not get high at all. I had 2 friends over and we smoked out of a glass pipe in my garage. I coughed a lot but didn't feel anything. We went to mcdonalds and they munched out while I chilled. Try it again and you'll most likely get high....really high.
I didn't feel anything the first time I tried it either. I remember walking downstairs and thinking that my brain felt kind of warm and nice, but it wasn't even intense enough to bother avoiding my parents - I was 15 at the time. In fact, I think I was more overcome by the taste in my mouth afterward than I was by the psychological effects... Anyway, after not doing it again for about three years, doing it a few times a year ago, and now doing it quite frequently, I can tell you that it does get a lot better.
I got REALLY REALLY gone the first time I smoked, and all the times after that. I agree with the post above, to smoke one on one with someone you trust, cause it can be a bit intense and overwhelming the first time you get stoned, just because it's such a strange and new feeling. As for the asthma symptoms, that wouldnt make much sense, especially if you didnt actually smoke much, and could just be psychosomatic? [in fact, marijuana smoke dialates the bronchials and is known to be able to stop an asthma attack with one hit] If I could go back and change how it went over, I'd have used a bong the first time. It's not as harsh, and you can be sure you're actually getting smoke, etc.
Yeah callinghome I know what you mean about the first time being intense. First time getting ripped that is. First time I smoked like I said there was nothing. Then the next day I did one bowl by myself that my friend had given me since I told him I didn't feel anything and it was super intense to the point where I thought I was dying lol. I was in 8th grade and probably not ready for it yet and after that I didn't do it for a couple months then I enjoyed and loved that same feeling that I felt the first time although it's very hard to get as high as you did the first time.
smoking shwag out of a can in the orchard...my first time sucked lol but ater the shwag part i got fuckiiinn stoned and have never regreted it
lol 40 my first time was in a hotboxed tent in a garden ^^ goood times, didnt get high the first time though not properly
haha my first time was on a school roof. i got quite high (but could of been my first nicotine rush as well which added to the dizziness - first smoke was a Joint) we were up there for an hour and i thought the effects hard started to loosen - but realised i was stuck on the roof! i just didnt kno how to get down, so i jumped. it fucking hurt for days but luckily i didnt break my legs.
my 1st time i was in 4th grade and my brother & his friend smoked a joint with me cuz i wanted to try it. i was hella blazed & was walkin to the store with my mom...i just remember everything lookin sorta bright & vivid-like and i was thinking "this is pretty damn cool"
My first time was out of a gatorade bottle behind some trees in a corner of a park. Nothing happened. Went back to a mates place, ate, played a bit of gta:sa and my mates went to sleep, and i was just sitting there like, wtf... first time i got stoned though i got crazy high.
my first time was at a party. some older kids asked if i wanted to blaze for the first time and i said yea cuz it sounded really fun.they were really cool about it.. tought me the technique, didnt get mad when i blew the bowl out by accident, and told me it was ok i was coughing so much. i walked away 15 minutes later... still not feeling anything. then BAM it hit me like a brick wall. i went on a 2 mile walk for no reason it was awesome.
For like my first year of smoking weed, I barely did it because I hated it. It made me cough and I didn't really get high. Then I basically came to realize with the help of some of my buddies (pointing and laughing) that I had never really been inhaling the entire time. It was super weird, I had never really smoked anything before so I basically didn't really know how to get it into my lungs, I'd just kind of have the smoke in my mouth and thought that I was doing it just the way you were supposed to. hahaha so damn funny
the first time i smoked was out of a friends chillum in the park. He had it cut in like little perfect squares and stuffed one in awkwardly. I hit it really hard, i wasn't really sure what to do, and started coughing really hard with the piece still in my mouth. The little square shot out of it, still lit, and landed on my friends shirt. I didn't get anymore from him haha
About a year ago (give or take a couple months) i was t this dudes house with about 4 other guys. We pretty much went there to get pretty drunk and play cards and shit (was cool). So after a while he calls us from the kitchen and rolls a couple of joints (i think it was 2 of the other guys first times aswell...oh god there are some funny stories in this including a portuges gas station man says "eeeeey why not!" when we went to buy some skins, lighters and ciggerettes...) we all sat there...they seemed to be felling it but i didnt... so about after maybe 5 (?) months., one of my mates (he was 16 and quite a stoner and i was 14) said that if i wanted to smoke with him. Now that time i got SOOO fucking blazed. because i had been taught exactly what to do by him. Now we are smoking buddies the end ps..pretty high so if that doesnt make sence that would be why...
I know exactly what you mean. the first time i smoked bud i didn't feel anything. and i had a lil bit of a cough the next day. but after that. i get fucked up when i smoke. i allways smoke a great strain though because me and my buddy grow it we know what we are gonna get. good shit. i have gotten contact buzzes when i was on probation and i couldnt smoke my friends did it around me and i got a lil buzz. then one time 9 of us sat in the van and i was the only one not smoking but i came out of that van baked off my ass. i mean i was completely fried. it was fun. yay.
My first time was from a contact high. I went to a Aerosmith concert in NYC in the mid 80s and got wasted off the fumes. I now am legal in SF or anywhere in the state of CAL to smoke pot from the 30+clubs in SF and the 140+ in the state LOL
A lot of people don't get high the first time they try it because they often don't know how to inhale properly. In my case, the first time I tried grass I was too drunk to inhale the smoke properly from the bong. The taste is the other issue.. for some reason (that seems so unexplainable now) I hated the taste of weed the first time I smoked it.. I even preferred the taste of tobacco to the taste of weed. But of course that would change soon.. weed is an acquired taste.
