I'm 20 and I smoke the pot. We don't have to bring age into this, I don't think.. Smoked it since I was 13. I think the type of person you are is more important hat your age, when it comes to this. dumbasses are dumbasses, you know? Pot can only amplify that, not force it to happen, imo

The only thing I think you should watch out for, assuming you actually get real high on your first time, is that your heart can feel a little funny, but, it wont blow up. Its probably going to beat kinda fast. Make sure you take decent sized hits. I didn't get high my first time, and I pretty much attribute that to the possibility that i probably didn't take adequite hits. Its gonna burn. You'll want to cough... and cough you certainly will... Just take big hits and inhale deep. Try to keep the smoke held down for a few seconds before you cough... Be someplace safe, you probably don't expect how bad the paranoia can get, since you don't have experience with being high, yet.

Be ready for teh red eyes. Don't walk up to strangers or people you know for a while after you get baked, they'll definately notice your eyes being different... Most of them know that the type of redeye you will have is probably from you doing drugs. Carry some visene or other eyedrops that get rid of redeyes... Don't overdo it on the drops, if you over do it, they sometimes don't work or make your eyes look even more fucked up! One or two per eye at the most.

Hrmmm... Again, i stress being somewhere where you feel very, very safe. Almost untouchable. The first time you feel the paranoia can be kinda intense. Hopefully you get high enough that it doesn't bother you, but, definately expect it and kinda set yourself to not let it freak you out. Uh... make sure you take all the seeds out of the pot if the pot has seeds. Seeds can blow up, literally, and hit you in the face or eyes, or ruin the bowl/joint... That's bad news... uh... bring a snack and a drink or something... dunno... I guess that's about all I can say. Oh and don't flame nuke the pot... Just tap it with the fire lightly until you see its good and lit, your bowl will last longer in most cases.

I have heard it go both ways. People who donâ??t get high their first time and those that do. I would say two real good tokes will do you or at least give it 5 or 10 minutes to see where you are before you hit it again.


As far a panic attacks go. I do get panic attacks sometimes when I smoke and Iâ??m not someone who is a nervous or panic type of person. I had never had panic attacks before so I didnâ??t know I was having one which only made my attacks worse because it was freaking me out. Anyone who has ever had one will tell you they are NOT fun. I found an effective way to deal with them though once I figured out what was going on. All of mine would happen in public like a bar or some place like that. Tell yourself that you are having a panic attack and that you are OK and that there is no logical reason to worry. For me just confirming to myself what was happening to my body goes a long way to stopping the attack. If I feel like I need to focus on something I put my finger on my pulse and take a few deep breaths and reconfirm in my own mind that Iâ??m OK. The only time my attacks spun out of control is when I didnâ??t know what was happening to me.

Donâ??t confuse panic attacks with paranoiaâ?¦â?¦the paranoia you will just have to live with but itâ??s not that bad. Panic attacks feel just like the nameâ?¦..sheer panicâ?¦your heart jumps like you just watched your child fall down a flight of stairs.

just go with it dude,

panic attacks usually go with the setting your in.. like driving in a car and afraid of a cop pulling you over when high
you cant get in much trouble except a misdimeanor unless your with a minor

and also , some attacks come from going home and getting caught or some shit...
pick a good place, like a chill back yard crank some tunes, make some food and enjoy it while it lasts

Smoke two joints.

Thanks again everyone these posts are Very Very helpful! and yes i will let you all know how it goes this weekend:thumbsup:

one can never be too cautious.
Just becuase I know i'll feel paranoid in most cases, turn off your cellphone!! When I light up and the phone rings, either i'll forget i'm high and answer it, immediately regretting the action, or listen to the ringing and dreading what horrible things could be in the persons mind that's calling. Just turn it off and put it in your pocket.
Also: sometimes, if it's good weed and you're a noob, you can become very very very stoned. My first time with dank weed was like heaven. Almost dreamy. But it certainly didn't help to go out and rent a movie in this state. Realize that when you're high, you're not going to be overly conscious of all the consequences or difficulties doing certain things, so for your first time, just stay put. Don't wander off into public or ride a bike to a friends house.
Stay in one general area... and chill...

just make sure you know what your getting into, and be sure you inhale and hold it in, and for sure you will get high. joints, pipe, bong, bubbler, vaporizer, eating brownies, anything will work, just hold in the hit...you remind me of me, I first tried it when I was about 20, now 24 and total pothead :stoned:

my first time smoking i didnt feel a thing, maybe i was a little buzzed of some bacardi and that masked it, maybe i didnt take good hits, i have heard people dont get stoned their first time because of cannibinoids asleep or something like that
the second timei got high i was at a resturant
had to order my meal, my buddies parents were there across the resturaunt staring, not a good situation
just make sure ur with people u trust, a safe enviroment, and for ur frst time have about 4 hours after smoking to sober up
