i didn't get high my first time smoking, but i didn't get depressed. i was just kind of like, "hey, why isn't this working? i wish it would work. i smoked because i wanted to get stoned, not so i could sit here wondering whether i was stoned or going to become stoned." in retrospect i was probably a little stoned. :jointsmile:

they either sold you some totally shit weed, stuff that WASN't weed, or you didn't smoke it right. if you've never smoked anything before your first time it's possible that inhaling hurts your damn throat too much, and if you haven't got any experienced smokers there to show you how it's done and stuff, it's very possible you won't get smoke all the way to your lungs.

sometimes our first times doing LOTS of things weren't the way we had imagined them -- but in many cases, these things are still worth doing till you get it right. :jointsmile:
