what's supposed to happen?

Ok what's supposed to happen from smoking marijuana? cause i had 2 things happen to me. At first i got really lazy but relaxed & didn't want to really do anything, but then one night I got dizzy & dissociated or something, even some minor framing, and i remember thinking if i turned my head something really bad might happen. like my vision would be permanently messed up or something. I was having a panic attack or something cause that never happened before, & that's what happened 2 times after that & i don't like it at all.
So i was wondering what happened?? Was i not doing it right this whole time till that one night, or did i get too high those 3 times that i got real dizzy & crap
i've been wondering if that's what's supposed to happen, cause if it is, i don't know how people could like that, or be able to go out in public like that, cause the 2nd time it happened it was really bad & i was so paranoid & could hardly even talk to anyone or stand up without falling over.
maybe its bad weed but the 1st time the weird dizzy thing happened it was my friend's; then the other 2 times it was some i bought (from someone i knew), so i don't know.
i've been to erowid but it just has positives & negatives, not really what everyone's talking about when they say how high they are....

you're a beginner, you have to let your system get used to it. Once it does, you'll know.

You feel nice & toasty and your mind is really wondering and your senses seem to be heightened.

you must somke bad weed. weed may get you a little paranoid but if its good weed its all fun.

so is the weird dissociated thing supposed to happen? cause if it is i don't know why everyone likes it.

it does happen, but you have to smoke roughly 2 - 4 times before your system gets used to having it there. Once your a bit sued to it you get the good effects and less of the crappy ones.

you need persistence when starting to smoke weed. try it a couple of times before you decide to keep doing it or not. it takes a few highs to get used to the feeling. triggering the high, how to react, quality/amount to smoke, etc...


imho keep trying, cuz its worth it when you come to enjoy it, its lovely.

so the first time when i just got really lazy you think i was just doing it wrong? cause i went like that for almost a year & it was fine, i just kind of stared off & thought about stuff....but these past 3 times it was just a panicky trying-to-enjoy-it-but-can't kind of thing. is it supposed to be that intense? cause i'd never go out in public like that.

was it just 1 time, the first time, that you got lazy and stuff? if so, people usually dont get high their first time. it takes 2 at least usually, and sometimes up to 6.

these past 3 times it sounds like you're smoking some good quality stuff and a lot too. how much did you smoke your past 3 times? if its good bud, only half a bowl should do you just fine.

1. no, that's what's been happening for almost a year now, up until just recently.
2. the first time it happened, i was at my friend's house & they said i got too high the first time...which was weird cause it wasn't my first time. but that was the day they commented i wasn't doing it right & showed me how to do it.
the other 2 times, it was some that i bought from another friend. she said it was really good ($10 for a dime, i don't know about prices that much cause it's the 1st time i actually bought any)
i took 2 pretty big hits the 2nd time & swallowed a lot of the smoke like i often do.....then the 3rd time a week later i took a really small hit & the same thing happened, only not as bad. the most noticeable thing was how it felt like if i moved my eyes anywhere i thought my vision would get screwed up somehow.

I would kill to still get the dissociated movie-feeling from smoking pot.

i used to like the dissociated way i'd get from dxm, but i suddenly stopped liking it so much & it just wasn't the same anymore. maybe i'd like what weed does if i still liked dxm :( its too bad.

well dont swallow the smoke...ick

Whenever i start losing that, i stop smoking for a few days and it comes back again. Same thing happens when i smoke all day, my body gets used to being high, and I stop noticing the effects of it.

the only time I ever had any hullucinnogenic effects from weed; I looked up from what I was doing and saw the fish aquarium broken and the fish on the ground a few seconds later all was fine, really weird, then another time there was some shadowy figures on the side of a huge dumpster outside of a hospital it seemed somehow wicked or evil and it was just that eerie feeling, come to think of it both of these experiences were from the same weed, never had anything like that from weed again,sometimes you can get some weed that just trips you out, if you smoke regular over a few days the stoned or high evens itself out, and although your still effected it becomes quiet easy to function like that, then your basically stoned all the time and even when you do smoke you really dont get high it just adds to your overall stoned feeling (man) Lol.

How old are you, Laura?

It seems like you focus on your high too much. Just tell yourself that nothing bad can possibly happen from smoking weed. Relax!

i'm going to try to sell this to my friend & get more. to find out if it's just me.
i tried to relax. i tried to like it. i really did. but i didn't like it. the same thing happens in the mornings at school. it's like weeks & weeks of after effects.

its all in ur mind, chill the fuck out, and ull have a nice time, ur not gonna die if u smoke...or maybe u will, yep i think u will, OMFG IF U SMOKE AGAIN U WILL DIE, im not kidding either, u seriously will,,,good luck with this smoking thingy

If you don't like smoking then for Christ's sake, why do you insist on doing it?

do you have any friends that are advanced stoners; not just kids that smoke weed sometimes, but like, know a lot about what they're doing? potheads love teaching new people the ropes of maryjane, so find someone who is knowledgeable and become a student.

its so hard for us to try and tell you what to do without being there to coach. haha

cause i dont want to be a fucking straight edge
it might not seem like a big problem, but it really is to me.

the thing is, i can get exactly how i am on it, without anything at all. like today i could have a regular conversation then 5 minutes later i was so out of it i could hardly understand what people were saying to me. and i was really dizzy today & kept having weird thoughts...usually it just happens in the mornings (no idea why) but today it happened all day.

Seems to me like you are smoking to try and impress people round you and fit in. Dont do ot for that reason, thats why your not enjoying the buzz.
What age are you? You seem quite young?

I'm 14, but i seriously feel older than other 14 & 15 year olds i know.
Anyway. I'm not trying to impress people, i'm just sick of constantly hearing people talk about their experiences with different kinds of drugs & how much they obviously like it, & i'm sick of thinking "how can you like those things?" I NEVER wanted to be the one who was left out saying "you can have fun without drugs" "you don't need drugs"
If i can't even like marijuana...thats like the basic thing & i can't even enjoy that.

I probably would have used to like it, just last year probably, now i don't even like dxm anymore, which was my favorite thing last year, i did it every week. Now i just get dizzy & antisocial & want it to be over already.

I guess pot just isnt for everyone, just chill out and stick to what makes you feel nice.
Even though everyone I know drinks alchohol, I think its one of the worst drugs available, so I stick to pot and other highs

i need something that won't make you drift in & out of reality, which is what it did to me. i don't like just staring off & not being able to really talk to anyone (either too paranoid or didnt understand what they/I was saying) :(
the only other things i've tried are 2.5mg of a valium once, and i got drunk once, which i liked, but it wasn't massively dont-know-whats-going-on drunk, so i don't know.....
the last time i had a good experience was at my friends party like 2 months ago......every time was bad after that.....and at her party i still liked talking to the more-sober people.
what do you think i should try then? unfortunately its easier to get 'downer' pills than anything else, which i probably wouldnt like.

i think you just got real high..

heh i decided to burn incense just now & it made me want to take some dxm. i only took 105 mg cause i haven't done it in a while, but i'm starting to think i shouldn't have...
this used to be my favorite thing to do & i dont like it anymore. i only took 105 mg AND its only been 20 minutes & im already dizzy dammit
this sucks :(

lol

DXM feels goooood. I feel ya, though. I remember a time when I had to quit because I was going through a difficult time in my life, and bud just made it worse. I'm lucky - I love even the effects of a cup of coffee. I have to tell you, though, you're doing drugs for the wrong reasons. You can't smoke "just because".

I love almost every aspect of the experience. I love the relaxation. I love how it makes me think about EVERYTHING. Every facet of everything. I love how when I'm sitting there, thinking about something I'd have never thought about sober, and I'll suddenly put two and two together and arrive at endless realizations. I love how music goes from "cool" to "whoa.......cool". I love how I'm never angry when I'm high, and I couldn't think of hurting a fly. I do it because I enjoy it; not to fit in. Whether or not you choose to look at what you're doing as how it really is is up to you, but that's what you're doing.

Why not be "straight-edge"? Do you have a legitimate reason? Just because? How is your relationship with your parents? Would you like it if they found out you were trying to be a 'bad kid'? I see absolutely nothing wrong with being a good kid, focusing on your education and being completely sober. In fact, I wish I hadn't drank or done dxm a third as much as I did when I was your age. My high school days are gone forever, and I'm pissed at myself more than ever that I can't ever go back and re-do those four years as a good - and Jesus more SOCIAL! - student. I was in honors and prep classes, and I FUCKED it all up, refused to do anything because I was pissed off at the idiocy and ignorance of the whole system.. and damn near everyone. Now that I'm older, I'm wise enough to understand that you can't live like that forever. This is the best the world has to offer, and we might as well make the best of it. Seeing as how you aren't happy doing drugs.. you aren't making the best of it, are ya?

I'm going to take a guess and blame it on peer pressure, or want of acceptance of your peers. I know, I'm about to sound like your D.A.R.E. teacher - deal with it. If your friends aren't going to accept you for who you are, then fuck them. I'll say it again. Fuck them. There *are* people who will like you for who you are. There *are* ways to enjoy yourself without being high! And I'm not your grandpa or your dare teacher; I've been smoking since I was your age, and I'm 19. Don't let life pass you by.

Yeah, that's all it is. LOL, I wish could get like that off of some bud, I have to do heavy shit to get there. Just chill, and try to enjoy it, that which does not kill you makes you stronger.

dont get me wrong when i say this....but it sort of sounds like a mental thing like slight mental illness emerging you might have PTSD or even mild psychosis these problems may seem unfathomable or even scary but it really seems like that COULD be the problem ps what i mean is that some people have these sorts of issues and weed belive it or not can actually bring them out

so ur saying u dont want to go in and out of reality, and u have problems with smoking because it obviously makes ur mind in a uncomfortable state and that last post on the other page i think means u have bad experience with alcohol except for one time? if this is all true then i suggest u keep away from drugs cept like caffeine and shit. dont force urself to do shit u dont like just to be like every1 else

sounds like you got real high

i love falling in and out of reality while high, it's crazy. must've been some good ish.

listen to some music next time, good music. or, turn the lights off when you get real high, light a candle, and listen to floyd. it's crazy.

The first weed you smoked was indica. Indicas make you relaxed, sleepy, basically stoned and glued to the couch. The second smoke that made you paranoid was a sativa strain. This type of weed is generally uplifting, speedy, creative head high. Too much of it will give you the bad reaction you got. Trust me, that's how I feel after smoking sativas sometimes.

Its a lot about the quality of the weed, sometimes your mood at the time.....
When i first smoked i didn't like it much at all especially cuz my throat killed me the whole smoking for months sometimes u can still get bad effects- but there's plenty of good weed out there and if its abused properly weed will prove to have more good effects than bad man.
