Third time trying herb....still not great?
My friend gave me some great herb the other night... no seeds..no stems...very potent...great indica strain....
Anyway... I tried weed for the third time with this stuff last night, and while it wasn't a "bad" experience, it still wasn't what I thought it would be.
I did have a couple outbursts of the giggles which was fun (I didn't have that at all the first two times)... but I also had some waves of anxiety and vertigo that were pretty uncomfortable. I only took two small hits... not much at all... and I waited about 10 minutes in between the first and second hit.
I guess I'm just hoping to feel more 'happy" and mellow.... not so woozy and dizzy. Am I expecting something that just isn't going to happen or do I just need to get used to it?
What do you all think?

were you in a comfortable environment?

If you want to feel 'happy' and 'mellow' you will need more than two hits.

hey beautiful,
i have found that indicas are more of a relaxing, couchlock type of high while the sativa is more euphoric, making you giggly and up. It sound like you had some strain of indica with a hint of sativa, as you said you had outbursts of giggles. Second thing, were you smoking alone? What was your environment. It has a lot to do with the high that you have especially if its not really in your system. The more it stays in your system the more immune you become to it. Dont worry just keep on chiefin, only maybe try some sativa dominant strain next time if you can, youll see the difference. :) Hope this helps..Anyone else care to add in?...

Hi. :) Yes... very comfortable. I did my first hit at home.... hopped in a bathtub surrounded by candles.... Took my second hit about 10-15 mins later.... and relaxed some more. Then got out of the tub and went downstairs and relaxed in my family room and watched tv. Very comfortable environment.

if you were by yourself just thinking about shit then ur gonna think of some shit that seems wierd and might not enjoy the high as much... i
f ur doing something with someone while smoking or really into a movie or something, i love the weed high..
but, ive also gotten to the point where i love smokin all day lol... out or in
-
Third time trying herb....still not great?
lol ok waiting 10 mins between 2 hits is barley gonna get you high. What I reccomend you do is go buy like a gram of you know some decent stuff and roll a joint or smoke it out of a pipe. Just take one small hit and then blow it out then take another small hit and then blow it out and keep doing that until you get high. ( when i first started i didnt get high for like 4 or 5 times because I was smoking to little..... and then one day I rolled a huge 3 gram blunt and after just a few big hits.... and after that i was HIGH! and I loved it) oh believe me if your listening to your fav music and are in a chill place you probally wont get paranoid and if you do just say to ur self nothings wrong... some things u may nottice when ur high is that music is AWESOME like better than being sober... ALOT better lol and also u may get some time disortion like u may say... hmm how long has this song been playing 30 mins when its only been playing for 2 mins lol... so anyways I think your just not smoking enuf of it... if you dont like to smoke i reccomend making some firecrackers or sumtin so you actually take enuf to get high... and also dont get freaked out if your heart starts beating really fast because thats normal and also there are some people who just dont feal anything from weed for some reason as i heard. but next time i reccomend just taking hit after hit untl u get high and notticing that u been spacing out hits 10 mins apart just seems to me that u should try smoking more and just after u blow out the smoke take a breathe and then take another hit and just keep doing that till u get high and just make sure ur in a environment with ur fav music and possibly some trusted friends and away from the public etc.. I hope i Helped and I wish you the best into getting Cannabis to work for u...

Regardless. He said he took TWO hits.. TEN minutes apart. And these were more than likely small sized beginner hits that probably werent inhaled correctly. So you are going to have to smoke a lot more than that and make sure you inhale it properly.
Anything you felt was the result of a placebo. You were probably just looking to feel something so bad that you may have tricked yourself into feeling somewhat differently. But it shouldnt be like that, I am a heavy smoker and I can noticeably feel it every time. What you did is like breaking up a tylenol into like a 1/10th of its size and expecting it to work.

Sounds like you would probably enjoy a sativa better. They make you silly and giggly but not so much paranoid and couchlocked. I like to smoke sativa and watch some dumb shit on tv and sit here and split my side laughin..LOL. I alo noticed that indicas give me the munchies like a son of a bitch, where as sativas dont.

no dont hold in your hits for 10 secs either because thats just a waste... just hold your hits in for 4 seconds..... like 97 percent fo the THC gets absorbed by your lungs withing the first 3 section after u inhale...

Dear Beautiful,
First of all, i think you choose your environment VERY well... If i had a bathtub, im sure i would reach the nirvana while smoking... :jointsmile:
You did well smoking slowly too. This way you could control better the level of the high.
Anyway, i think you didnt smoked enough to reach a real high. It seems you felt just a bit of the effects. The vertigo is one of most notable effects of the indica high. When youre HIGH from indica, you lay down and feels like youre moving (or spinning) at a great speed... you can almost feel the wind on your face... it is nothing more than an extreme vertigo... for me (and im sure for a lot of stoners) its a very pleasant feeling...
Woozyness and dizziness are "classical" effects of indicas too... when people say indica gives a "couchlock" high, is because sometimes you just have not another option else stay locked to the couch, feeling your body is somewhat melted, completly dizzy, with the mind sloooow, somewhat confused, but also happy and peaceful... :D
The anxiety you felt can be probably an mental reaction, like a "trauma" from your first (and unpleasant) experience. Maybe you started to feel some effects, then remembered of the first experience, become afraid, and so the anxiety. I say it because indicas are used by people to control anxiety (and not to create it).
I dont know what exactly you expect from weed. If you could say your expectations, i would try point out the better type of weed (indica/sativa) for you try.
Anyway, keep trying. And, most important of all, let it go. Go wherever the "trip" take you. If you feel dizzy, enjoy the dizziness... If you feel confused, with the mind wandering aimlessly, enjoy it. Try enjoy the "trip", and im completly sure earlier or later youll be very well rewarded.
And as another people already posted, try doing some pleasurable things while high, like listening music, or eating chocolate (chocolate while stoned is the seventh heaven...), os just talking nonsense with a friend (stoned too, preferibly)... :stoned:
So, good luck, and keep posting!

If you just want happy and mellow you are going to have to go for an opiate because cannabis is psychedelic

Third time trying herb....still not great?
yeah it took me around 5 times to love the stuff.
btw i take around 20 hits to get high so 2 hits barely does anything

try not to smoke 'unnatural' marijuana... I like some strains but there are some that are just not too good, feels like an unnatural high if you smoke too much.
Also you may be feeling uncomfortable because marijuana is 'illegal'

if you want a happy and giggly high vape dont smoke

Third time trying herb....still not great?
I tried some very potent weed when I was still relatively new to smoking and it gave me the paranoid feeling you are describing --I did not feel mellow or relaxed at all, I could barely move and 2 minutes felt like an hour. When someone spoke there was a huge echo effect, which was weird.
The stuff I have bought since then has been a lot less potent, but it gives me a very relaxing high and just makes everything I do more enjoyable (still able to function.) Maybe since you are a noob you should work your way up to the more potent stuff. Also, I smoked several times before I really got the high I was expecting, so don't give up.

To answer your question, the kind of high I'm looking for is one that includes feeling very happy, relaxed, and giggly. I want to have fun with friends without wanting to fall asleep, but I have to admit, the dizzyness and vertigo make me feel sick. Any suggestions on what names of weed I might be more tolerable of? Thanks for your help. :):hippy:

Jeez.. 20?! Either your smoking HORRIBLE stuff or your the most Tolerant person on the face of the planet!

^Yea for real. But there are a lot of people out there that think they need a lot more weed to get high than they really do. You should get plenty high smoking even 0.1 - 0.2 grams at a time.

Third time trying herb....still not great?
Well... if you wanna feel happy, giggly and not dizzy, you should smoke a weed with more sativa-like then indica-like character. But it must have some indica too, for help to relax and avoid any anxiety. So, i think the better for you is a mix of the two.
If you still have the weed you smoked first time, try mix it with this weed you smoked last time. About the same quantity of each. If you have not, heat your weed in the microwave some 20-30 seconds, before you smoke it. It will make the weed more sativa-like (as the heating decarboxilates/isomerizates the cannabinoids). Note that heating the weed will make it dry, and it will burn way faster, so you must take smaller hits.
Try again in the same environment of the last time (which seems perfect for me), smoke slowly, and enjoy a very good trip! :jointsmile:
Good luck! :thumbsup:

I don't know about all the times and shit. The first time i truly enjoyed smoking was when i found my own intake.Your supposed to take good hits but you need to get comfortable with it. Ppl are also good.
