How to smoke with less cough?

[loverly]

smallers tokes

i'm an absolute newb to MJ and I'm with your wife, the burn in my throat and the coughing are not worth whatever remedy I'm trying to get out of the smoke, especially if I already have a headache. I can take 2 or 3 small/short tokes from a joint without the pain. I try to be careful and feel for a heating up in my throat. As soon as I feel that I stop smoking. It's the same if I use the pipe style vaporizer we have. I only draw on the pipe until my lips feel slightly warm, then I stop, wait a sec and take another draw.

This has worked for me. It doesn't get me high, but it does help with my pain.
