First time smoking, didnt get high.

well last night i smoked for the first time. i have never smoked anything except for a hookah, and i didnt inhale that into my lungs, so when i was smoking pot, it was like hard for me to get the hang of letting it suck into my lungs, and to me that seems like a really wierd problem. i inhaled it but i dont think i sucked it into my lungs enough, it was just awkward cuz i didnt know what i was doing exactly. My bf told me it looked like i got a couple of good hits, and after one, i did laugh a hell of a lot for about a min. but after that, i didnt feel any different at all except my body felt heavy. honestly my mouth and throat burned soo much that it almost didnt seem worth it because i wasnt getting high. I hear some people dont get high the first time, i was wondering if you knew why that is, and if thats what my problem was, or if i didnt get very high because i wasnt inhaling it right. i really want to do it again, i just hope for better results. it sucked cuz my bf was high as hell and i was just like.. sitting there wanting to get in on it but my body had other plans...

 

i believe the body doesnt know how to metabolize the Delta-9-THC the first time, but each time after that youre fine. just dont overanalyze it and go smoke again. youll get stoned, i bet

 

i personally got pretty high the first time i smoked, i didnt get as high as i do now, but i still definately felt it. alot of my friends said they didnt get high the first time they smoked. i think it all depends on the person, but im not really a weed science expert, so its jus my opinion

 

its perfectly normal. my first time i only got a little buzzed, but that was on some nice stuff. ive had plenty of friends who didnt get high thier first time

 

alot of people dont get high on their first time, not really sure why but they just dont. i know that i didnt, and i knew how to inhale since i had been smoking cigs for a full year before that. try it a few times more, if by the 4th or 5th time your not high then you could be doing something wrong.

 

How would that work?

 

if you were coughing like mad, it was going into your lungs. give it time, try a few more times, and if nothing, come back.

 

i think the first time you smoke, the thc gets stored mostly in your fat cells, and you dont get very high. but the next time you smoke, theres probably too much for the body to store efficiently, so it is metabolized and used in the bloodstream.

just a theory though.

 

well i definately wasnt coughing like mad so i guess i wasnt doing it right, i coughed like once but it was because of my throat burning and it aggitated my mouth

 

interesting theory Craevyn

 

Yeah, don't worry. It takes one or two smoking sessions for your body to get used to it. Eventually, you'll start getting used to smoking after you do it.... I remember my first times when rolling joints and the like and I sucked at it and wasted a shitcarload, but now, I can go into the bathroom and have a quick 5-10 minute smoke session, carry a bottle of clear eyes in my pocket, make a sandwich and just tell my parents I didn't get much sleep if my eyes are red and I'm actin' a little odd, and that I'm going to go to bed... haha.

 

I did not get high my first time either. I thought I did, but then I actually got high smoking again several times later. Keep trying and eventually it will happen.

 

i didnt get high the first time either but second time: we were standing there and had just smoked it all and thought to ourselves: "am i high? i dont feel very high."
then we started walkin and that answered our questions!
