    I would never smoke marijuana, but two of my friends are planning on it, so I was wondering how much is too much? Remember, I'm talking about two 14 year olds, so for them the maximum amount would probably be less than normal. I'd rather them not do any drugs at all, but I know they'll probably still do it, so instead of telling them not to, I might as well tell them the limit.

    Don't use any fancy terms, because I don't know much about drugs and neither do my friends. Also, I think they're only going to do it once, so I'm not looking for an answer like "once every 2 months", I just want to know how much is too much for one time. Thanks

    If there's anything else you think I should tell my friends (who don't know anything about marijuana), please let me know.

    Well someone036 marijuana is a suprisingly low risk drug. It is a well know fact that you can NOT over dose on cannabis. Seeing as its there first time, they will have a fairly high tolerance level as all first time smokers do. This means that they will need to take more than the usual amount to get the desired affect. To start with I would recomend they buy an eighth of an ounce and smoke abit of that till they feel high enough.

    Being under the influence of cannabis is alot safer than many other drugs as the users still have consciencious control over what they are doing (apposed to wen under the influence of alcohol were nearly all self-control is lost).

    Hope thats helped

    look, as long as they smoke stnadard quanities at least 10 minutes apart, they can decide for themselves how much is too much.

    but you should try it too lol jees

    basically, their first time they wont wnt more than a joint! a few tokes will probs hurt their chests if theyre taking it proper and dont deepply inhale ciggarettes already so by the time they getnthru one joint, they shouldbe blazed. First time i smoked anything i was 15 [on my 15th birthday] and had one joint with a mte -couldnt handle the chestyness but later on [bout an hour] all was good nd i had nother and actually got stoned - prctice makes perfect!

    big warning to all tho. there are very large longterm side effects from smoking cannabis. I know. I hve these problems. If anyone wants to discuss the deeper issues then contact me by all means. If you are strong willed and not an addictive personality, have a few tokes!

    the first time i smoked pot, i didn't feel it at all (somone just gave me a nugget, it was so ghetto, i went into the woods with a skinny joint roled with computer paper). The first time i felt it i made a tin pipe and bought a gram. My friend and I were insanly high. It was beautiful. but just let them figure it out for themselves. Cannabis isn't dangerous at all, It's impossible to over dose. You should try it too. Cannabis isn't even really a drug, (it is really) but its the only one with totally positive effects. Alot of kids i know do tons better in school when they smoke before and during. So anyway, your friends are about to begin a physcedelic, amazing trip to who knows where. Anyway, if your ever thinking about trying it. Tell yourself to do it twice, the first time doesn't get you high really and the second is when you have an awesome time.

    This amount should suffice

    i really wouldnt worry about it. they're just going to get stoned and maybe watch some scooby-doo

    and you should really listen to these guys - the LD50 (lethal dose) of THC is ungodly high in comparison to the normal amount a person smokes to feel high. youd be having deep conversations with christ before you even got close to dying.

    besides, the basic concept of pot is that you smoke till you feel high then stop. usually if youre good and high and you still want another bowl, joint, etc. you probably wont be able to pack/roll it until you're closer to baseline

    I'd agree with that, but with one of my friends, he feels nothing for 15 good minutes after his first toke, no matter how much or how good it is. So we've managed to get a hellofalotta weed down his throat befor it kicks him in the ass.

    First timers are usualy funny to watch, they'll probaly laugh there asses off and not make alotta sense.

    ok thanks everyone. i guess i had the impression that it was really dangerous. as u can probably tell, the only education i've had about marijuana was one of those things where a guy comes in to school and tries to scare us. but now that i think about it, i don't remember if he actually talked about marijuana. it was mostly about ecstasy and stuff.

    btw, what is it that's so great about marijuana?

    colors tastes every sense just feels better to experience

    example: if you lay on your back in the grass and look at clouds stoned, you'll notice that they dont just SORTA look like animals or whatever - they really are

    btw thats one of THE MOST fun things to do while stoned - barring conversation

    but dont give her the impression that you hallucinate.

    pot WONT make you hallucinate, doesnt really impair you, and doesnt make you violent or depressed (unless you allready have problems in your life, and use pot to excape).

    the effects are indescribeable.

    taste-(even just the taste left in your mouth after you smoke enough) is infinately better, i recomend some type of cola (coke or pepsi), and any mass produced, bagged snack food is awesome.

    sight- well, when i'm coming up, everything gets really clear, but about half way to when i peak, or when the high becomes the most intense (about 15 minutes after i've smoked if im sitting down), things become kindof hazy, but if i think about seeing things, they go back to being really clear. if you're really high, your vision gets somewhat skippy, kinda like a strobe light, but without the bright flashes of light.

    touch- touch is pretty weird. one time i was smoking in the woods, and i got a bunch of those little sticky things all over me. they were really really itchy, untill the pot kicked in, and then they became very pleasant feeling. everything is kindof warm and tingly. you definately feel very pleasantly warm.

    hearing- hearing really isnt that impaired, your brain is just too busy focusing on how totally awesome and indescribable being high is like. so you just arent paying attention. but music is the greatest thing ever.

    smell- your sense of smell is slightly dumbed down, you wont be able to smell the pot on your clothes, even if everyone else can. but you can smell food.

    other actions that may be affected by pot

    driving- people tend to drive slower while on pot. its probably not a good idea to try to drive your first time, but it tends to make people drive slower as to avoid crashing.

    walking- you dont really loose coordination or sense of balance when high, but i have found myself leaning to the right while walking stoned.

    acting sober- experianced users can usually pull it off, but if you're a newb, your best bet would just be to tell your parents that you're very tired, and go to bed. you probably will be anyway.




    long term effects-

    if you go to sleep early, it will be the best sleep you've ever had. but if you go to bet at a normal time, you'll be veeeery groggy the next day. you may still feel like you're buzzing the next day, or after working or running, or just about anything that burns fat (THC, the chemical in marijuana, desolves into your fat), you may feel slightly off, but most people say its just placebo.

    your grades shouldnt drop, and you probably wont be all anti motivated like how they tell you. you might change, but it will be for the better. There is a serious religion (rastafari) in where pot is consumed as a sacrament. and its not made up of just a bunch of stupid pot smoking teenagers, even though a bunch of them pretend to be rastafarians.

    there are numerous medicinal benifits to marijuana, and most negative aspects are removed when eating food baked with marijuana in it. eating a McDonalds meal would probably be atleast 10 times worse for you than eating pot brownies.


    anyways, pot is an anti-convulsant (helps people with epilepsy), and helps anorexics, aids, and cancer patients to eat (so that they can nourish their ravaged systems), among many, maaany other uses.


    have fun, and keep it under control. it can be benificial.

    i dont mean to question your morals or anything, but im about to do just that

    why would you never smoke marijuana, even just to see if it any fun at all? i mean, how can you know if you like something if you never tried it? i tried tofu, i hate it. i tried sex and i love it. how can marijuana be so different to you?

    again i mean no offense. im just wondering why you dont want to try something that could be a lot of fun.
