Reaction to weed

[hotdog36]

I am new to smoking pot, and the other day I tried it for only the second time. One of the reactions was that I felt SO cold (my teeth were chattering, and I was shivering intensely). Why did I have this reaction? Do you guys think that it was because the THC content was too high? This also happened after two drags. Should I have continued? Thanks!

this happened because thc lowers your blood pressure which in turn lowers your body temperature. don't blaze too often if you want to keep your body temperature up to a comfortable level because the same happened to me

Wear a jacket or something, isn't that why we invented them things?

Maybe you should close your window next time, and turn down the fan while you're at it!

Seriously, I bet it was just mostly in your head. It happens to people who start smoking weed. I remember when I freaked out a little bit way back when, and I laugh about it now.

Good luck.

I tell first time tokers EVERYTHING that might happen to them on a first time. They might feel nothing, they might pass out for a few minutes, they might start shivering/sweating, they might puke up. But, they probably wont feel anything at all.
If they smoke cigs, the best thing to do is take the baccy out of a ciggy and fill it with a WEAK herb/tobacco mix. They usually dont know the difference (I just say that its a ciggy from abroad) and then they will usually feel something for the first time, even if its a slight buzz. This is because if theyre holding a joint in their hand, they are expecting to get stoned, and for some reason when youre expecting to get stoned from a spliff you dont get much from it. When I get stoned, Ill just lie in the garden, eyes closed, and smoke the spliff without paying attention to anything. Before I know it Im fecked and theres still half a joint to go.

Oh, if you use the ciggy method, make sure they actually want to get stoned first, and take them someplace like a park where you can see all around you incase they get paranoid. Just chill

Alot of things can happen when you first toke. Maybe it wasnt the weed? Maybe you was just cold?

Cheers for sticking me in your sig Tom

yeh i got cold a few times, well bummed me out!

You were just new and you noticed every little thing that happened to you. The more you do it, the less this type of stuff is noticed (or disturbing).

I've never really gotten cold. My hands sometimes get colder. Besides that, my body temperature is pretty normal.
