As to the social anxiety: maybe I had a bad social experience when I smoked weed with others younger. I also remember that the first couple times that I smoked I didn't feel so anxious. Maybe until someone noticed how "stupidly relaxed" I seemed when high maybe made me feel somewhat self conscious after that. Maybe it's the "phobia" in general that the public has of marijuana, which makes me feel uncomfortable while high, or is itjust me?[/QUOTE]

Yea I have social anxiety disorder to, its a pain isn't it? I know, and it has made me more self-conscience as well when i smoke. But sometimes if I just relaz and not worry then ill be fine. I would recommend you learn to control your anxiety and be able to have it under control when you smoke. Mixing mental illness (which anxiety is) and a mind altering substance is dangerous to your mental health unless you know what yur doin. Just try to stay relaxed and enjoy the high and releaize its a disorder not all of your conserns about your apprearance are real ,there just products of anxiety. Oh and everone looks a little stupid when there high its to be expected and your english is good probubly better than some americans even. :thumbsup:
