1st Time Stoner

[tastemaker]

Hey guys, this weekend was my first time trying pot and I had a couple questions:
1. I got sick and threw up a LOT. I was wondering what might have caused this?
2. One of my friends had a pretty bad panic attack, but this wasn't his first time smoking. What caused this/is this normal?

Just hoping to find out what went wrong so I can fix it next time. Thanks guys.


- Peace and Love

i gurantee u it was laced with something... know your source, also were there other drugs involved?

Hey, Tastemaker. Congrats, I think, on your first time.

Let me ask you a couple of Qs. You said you threw up. Were you by any chance drinking while y'all were toking? Or perhaps coughing a lot since this was your first time? Either of those things could easily explain getting sick at your stomach.

And your friend who had the panic attack . . . is he prone to those anyway? Could his imagination perhaps have gotten the better of him about what he was smoking? Panic happens a good bit, especially when emotions are running high and there's the excitement of a new and mysterious substance (even if he's not a totally new smoker, I get the feeling you're both fairly young).

Make sure you're smoking unadulterated weed from a trustworthy source and try and chill out. I'm sure these things won't continue to happen. And if they do, well, you'll just have to do without. . .

Hey dude. Well I'd say vomitting is just your body's way of rejecting the foreign substance. Lots of people throw up the first time they get drunk (among other times), a guy I knew would throw up everytime he did shrooms but then he was good to go. Another guy I knew used to throw up from weed occasionly and he probably threw up his first time. I'd be surprised if you threw up the next time. Seems normal to me just not that common.

Like any drug, weed puts you in a different head space so sometimes you panic or you get paranoid. Some people are more prone to panicing, usually people that haven't been smoking that long or they're just the type of person to panic. It effects people different. But all in all weed's a pretty safe drug. Smoke on dude.

to much to fast.....paranoia is not uncommon for some smokers especially if you over do it...some of the stronger strains of weed can be a bit much on inexperienced smokers... the point of smoking ..at least for me is to take the edge off or to relax...not to get boldly shit faced of of my skull ...next time try just taking 1 or 2 hits and wait a while and see how you feel ...if this does not work and you getthe same negative results than maybe this just isnt something you should be doin,,,good luck and be carful

No other drugs involved and we weren't drinking. Source was credible. I'm thinking rowjimy is right: it was too much too fast. But I dunno what the deal was with my friend having a panic attack, 3 people smoking and he was the only 1. We smoked Friday and Saturday, he got paranoid both times but Saturday was when he really started freakin out. I guess it's just how he reacts or something.

are you guys all new to smoking? sounds like you need time to get comfortable with blazin.. it's not you as much as it's your body, but give it some time and i predict you stop throwing up and start getting mighty hungry and your friend will be calm and laughy very easily.

its what happened to my first original group of pot smoking friends... most of it is pretty much because you guys were all nervous and anxious i bet. were you nervous beforehand?

[Funkamander]

Your friend is a dumbass who's pushing his limits way too early.

Weed shouldnt make you puke. People do have panic attacks, but i dunno why, i never do.

Take smaller hits... then you shuoldnt be sick. And try and not cough too much,.
