The first time I did it I was 18 years old at a friends house and they wanted me to smoke from a pipe. I normally refused when he asked this on other occasions, but I decided to give it a try this time since I thought it wouldn't do anything my first time.. I was wrong, and got really stoned for about 3 hours. I got really paranoid because I didn't know how to handle myself, and my friend and his brother were cracking up over it. To top it off, my girlfriend at the time was on her way over with another friend, and I was still stoned when she got there lol. I can look back and laugh now, and thank this friend for introducing me to this wonderful little herb.
