People who can't handle marijuana

So I have this friend, when hes sober, hes pretty much just your average teenage kid, but when he smokes he acts completely insane. For example, one time after smoking, keep in mind the pot smoked was just your everday regs, he started to rub his face very slowly with hands, kind of like massaging it, and making grotesque facial expressions. Another thing he does is he'll start to talk in a normal voice, then randomly switch to a voice where he pretends to talk in slow motion then randomly switch back. He'll also start to roll all over the floor continuesly for mintues at a time. This is only a select few from a myriad of obsurd things he does while high.

You might then say, "well maybe he just needs to smoke a few more times to become used to what its like to be high." I've smoked with him about 10 times, thinking everytime he'll have changed. Everytime produces the same results. Me and my frineds thought at first he was doing it for attention. But everytime we tell him how annoyed we are and how he really needs to stop, he just says "I AM SOOOO SORRY!" and keeps continueing to act how he was. Then when we're sober he says he'll never act like that again, which proves to be a lie.

Anyone else have friends that are similar to this while they're high? or maybe to a lesser extent since this case is pretty extreme? And if you don't, your lucky, people like this are really a buzz kill.

 

I know what you mean, I have a friend like that too. He would just take one toke from the joint and his eyes would turn red and he'd say "I'm done"... and we'd be like "what the fuck man we have 7 more joints!". However in a few months he grew out of it and now enjoys pot normerly like the rest of us. I'm sure your friend will change too

 

Id kill for a friend like that, people like that just make my day.

 

I've never seen anything like that...but smoking 7 joints doesn't sound normal to me...

my bf will smoke some then start playing guitar and rock out, and I will go write a ton of stuff, but sometimes we just hang out and do really funny stuff in the living room/around the house, like he'll roll on the floor and I'll jump over him or something like that... it's kinda like shrooms, I don't see what's so wrong with that, kinda funny, just doesn't seem to mesh with what you guys are doing, maybe he needs to smoke with someone else.

To me people who can't handle weed are people who freak out and think they're gonna die, which has happened to me.

 

When I started smoking, I used to be like that. (about 5 years ago). I think it takes time for the body and the mind to get used to the effects of marijuana. When I smoked back then, I could like space out for 15-30 minutes, no biggy, but at the same time, my friends were just babbling on and chilling, while i kept spacing out.
And when they asked me something, I started mumbling, talking gibberish only an old linguistic expert can translate to a language, not 5000 years dead

But the more I got used to it, the less it happened, and the more I was capable of controlling mind mind and body while having smoked.

My advice is, wait it out, give it some time. 10 times isn't enough. If he still is like that after a month or so, than I believe his body or mind is unable to proces the effects that marijuana causes.

 

I think it's just wanting to have fun. Being easily amused by things. I've smoked lots, my bf has smoked even more than me. Sometimes we chill, sometimes we act silly, we don't hold back and maybe this guy just doesn't want to hold back, despite how his friends are acting.

 

i doubt hed do it if he wasnt having heaps of fun. id be envious of how awesome it would be to get that high. i dont think it has to do with handling weed unless he was getting himself into trouble or getting paranoid or sick or something

 

Well he did get sick twice and puked, but i think that was due to the insane amount of food he ate. But hhhmmmm yeah I guess your all right. I'll just smoke with him more often, hoping that'll get him acclimated to the effects. Or maybe I should I just join in with his antics next time. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Right?

 

i act pretty weird when im high and thats why people love smoking with me because i act strang and its funny, ive been smoking for about 5 years, the first year i was very weird but now im able to control myslef but i dont most of the time because im high and thats why i smoke, so i say weird sit and walk around a room in circles and laugh at nothing.

 

Ya man i wish i had a friend like that... i can handle pot when i do alot i like to just enjoy my self i sit and look @ the wall and touch things... i love the feeling of somthing against my skinw hen im high... i have to be touching somthing either my pants or my shirt.

 

man it's that kind of people who make smoking pot worth it... i'm not too fond of being around people who act cool and serious after toking, they're no fun and many times i end up spacing out, and become really weird and introverted. I need someone to laugh with, and man i don't see how you don't find your friend funny, i'd love to toke with him

 

I start being goofy when I get baked. Every single thing is DAMN funny. But I like the "normal" just sitting around talking high and stuff too, so it can go both ways I guess.

That's just how your friend is. Don't try to change him/her or you could steer him from weed from the rest of his life!

 

I completly agree with you, for once. It frustrates me when I want do something active and theres just bunch of lazy blobs sitting on the couch watching TV. Turn off the fecking screen and have conversation!!!

You gotta let loose and enjoy the experience, or else it is wasted.

 

Well, alot of people enjoy the experience of watching TV.

 

the kids that hate crazy stuff while stoned are the kids i cant stand. im usually really spacy, make no sense, laugh non stop. smoking isnt fun when you just sit around and be a bitch and try to act normal, if you do that then you shouldnt waiste the green man, just give it and your money to me so me and the rest of us can have a good time. damn it i hate uptight potheads, they are the worst.

 

^^indeed

 

Last night I was at a friends party, and two of my friends were tweaking out hardcore from the gravity bong we made in the garage. They both only had one hit each, but one of them was tripping out hardcore and really scared, claiming he was "SHRINKING!!!". It was fucking scary, because he was so scared. I spent the whole night calming him down. Then all of a sudden my other friends starts rolling around on the floor and is really scared and yelling. So I spent my whole night high, drunk, and fucking trying to calm my friends down so they dont kill themselves. Fun? No. They went a bit too wild...

Maybe the gravity bong is only for experienced users...

 

haha its the magic of marijuana...when you get high with a few hits ;p

 

some people are like that, the first time i smoked we smoked white widow, and i was freakin out. Then the convinced me to OL(overload) just get him to smoke the stongest shit you can find, and keep smokin till he mellows out (our passes out, opps lol) and after that he'll be fine

 

haha my buddy mike used to be exactly like that, and he stayed that way for probbaly 2 years of smoking, now he's just smoked so much he's your typical stoner i guess
