Not getting high from smoking

I smoked for the first time last week and didnt get any high while everyone else was, and then I tried again the other night with someone and I still didnt feel anything even though my friend was high. Why cant I seem to get high while everyone else is? the people who got me into this said it would be awesome and I feel kindof ripped off...any thoughts?
I did inhale. I was inhaling so deep and holding it in for about 5-8 seconds for so long my friends were like "aww man hes gonna be so high!"
Im not a stranger to smoking anything...Ive smoked cigarettes for a long time, cigars, pipes, hookah...so I know how to inhale smoke fine...maybe Im just immune. Im pretty certain im only gonna give it one more shot.

 

for some people, they don't get high the first couple times they smoke. it's normal
or maybe you're just not inhaling. tell your friends to teach you how to inhale, and then maybe you'll get high.

 

Did you inhale properly? Take the smoke into your mouth then take a deep breath and hold it for about 5 seconds then slowly exhale it and repeat. If you did this already then you may be one of the unlucky people who take a few times to get stoned. Trust me keep trying if you are doing it right I bet within the next couple times you will get baked.

Edit: Beaten to it

 

A guy told me this, and I get really high. Inhale so you can taste it in your mouth first, then start getting a bunch in your lungs and hold it in for about 10 seconds. Slowly exhale. You'll have times when you cough real bad, that just means you got a bunch in. If you can hold it while resisting a cough, you're gonna get hiiigh.

EDIT: I didn't get here quick enough...

 

I think it's def. an inhale issue. How are you smoking? Joint /pipe?

 

yeah, i had a friend with a similar problem. she did it four times and didnt get high. Whenever I smoked with her, I saw that she was exhaling as soon as she took it in i told her to hold it in and she got high as hell, so just make sure that youre holding it in long enough and it will come.

 

then dont smoke your marijuana like a cig and hold that shit

 

If you aren't coughing so hard that your eyes tear up, then you aren't inhaling.

There is no such thing as not getting high their first time. The reason why people don't get high is because they aren't inhaling anything... you have to breath DEEPLY with your diaphragm, then even deeper so both your chest and stomach are expanded/sticking out... hold for about five seconds, and then release. Practice deep breathing without any smoke to condition yourself beforehand, as to get ready.

If you aren't high within 15 mins, then take another hit. If you're still not high, then wait another 15 and take another hit... You'll know it when you're high... there is no question about it. When you're thinking: "Am I high?" then you aren't high, trust me. If you're taking hits and you aren't getting high, then its the inhaling issue again... you'll learn how to do it.

It's impossible to be a human being and not get high. It's inhaling issues.

 

I personally disagree with the coughing part....depends on the type of inhale. I agree with the waiting between hits though....that is key to the correct amount of "highness".

 

I totally belive you inhaled correctly. same thing happened to me my first time and I also made a thread asking about it on here. Just try it again in a few days or a week. pretty normal not to feel anything the first time I'd say.

Just keep trying and don't give up hope!

 

dont give up. if ur inhaling right, its still possible ur body is "getting ready" to accept the effects. some ppl dont get high there first 5 or 6 times, but usually its only 1 or 2 failed attempts. if, after at least 10 tries, then give up. some ppl just cant get high. but dont give up yet!

 

no one is immune. THC works biochemically, unless you have some freak mutant brain, lungs, or blood, the chemistry is all set up. lots of people take a few times, just keep trying.

 

i think it is inhalation problem

lol when i first smoked, i was a noob and didnt know anything. my cousin just sprung the question on me in the middle of the night. so i was all chill with it.

we went outside lit up a joint and he told me to inhale on the joint, then take a giant breath after the joint left my lips.

it felt like a got knocked in the jaw it hit me so hard. i didnt know what weed would do to me, and i was just in the moment.

in like a minutes time i was coughing and slobbering all over myself, i couldn't control it.

now thats what i do to noobies that i smoke up. i tell em to powerhit that shit (without telling them what a powerhit is, just how to do it). and i just laugh as they are about to puke their lungs out.

They end up thanking me later

 

Just thought id share that I tried it again tonite and I got very high....it was soo messed up...I dont think i'll be doing that again...It was a wicked nasty scene.
