Do you think I'll be okay smoking JUST weed?

My only other experience with weed was horrible! I went to my friend's party, basically on an empty stomach (which was retarded), drank vodka, a beer, and half a generic four loko. I took 2 or 3 hits from a bong, and chained smoked a few cigarettes; this all happened within a half-hour period. I fel dizzy on and off, and fuzzy headed, and knew I was fucked up. Longer story short, I ended up getting the spins, going "out of my body", honestly believing I was going to die that night because my heart was pounding and head spinning, and felt like I might get raped. I also blacked out, then chilled out and got really tired. So, that was about 3 months ago, I've smoked cigarettes and hookah since, and also drank a little. I'm going to smoke weed, but scared anything like I experienced that night will happen, as I read online some ppl having panic attacks and weird experences from smoking weed alone, without alc. I'm nervous? Can I prevent stuff like tht from happening when I smoke?

 

yeah alcohol is poisonous, weed is herbal, remember that

 

So, those freak occurances that involve just weed don't happen often?

 

Yeah they happen when you get too high when you start smoking. Try smoking less next time until you eventually enjoy being really high, or not
I like trying to get as high as I can sometimes especially when its fo free.
But yeah the getting shitty drunk didn't help your weed so dont judge things when you try them if you are too drunk to even judge lol.

 

You have to try weed on its own to know what its like

 

this is such a ridiculous argument. there are so many things that grow naturally that can kill you if you ingest them, saying that weed is good because it's 'herbal' is a total bullshit argument.

 

^^agree sort of.

Alcohol is evil? Come on...

I enjoy a few beers or a nice bottle of red wine and some pure hash or weed. So long as you don't drink too much (which I am admittedly prone to do myself) it's fine.

I'd say it was probably the cigarettes that made you feel like shit.

Stay away from them and the rolling tobacco. If you are going to smoke joints then it's sometimes a good diea to burn the edge of the cigarette to vape some of the chemicals out of it before rolling it with some nice sticky black. You don't want it too dry if you are smoking it with weed though. I used to like making joints with creme when I was in india, you make the tobacco really dry and mix it with the sticky.

Or you can smoke blunts. But I say if you have good weed or hash then a few drinks and a bong is a good mix. Tobacco saps your energy, but alcohol and weed give you energy so you will feel high and able to party to the max.

Also, best not to mix your drinks. Vodka is strong stuff as well. Stick to the beers and wines.

 

rep+ you hit the nail on that one

 

i'm a veteran pot smoker, and i'll still get the spins if i get DRUNK and then hit the bong a few times.

the crazy weed stories aren't that common. only take a hit or two, and wait a few minutes to see if you are already really baked that way you probably won't get way too stoned.

 

^^^Yep... alcohol (mostly hard liquor) and weed is one of my least favorite combinations. I got the quantities and timing JUST right a few times before and had a nice little buzz but most of the time it just makes me so dizzy that I puke, even if I didn't drink too much.

I've had maybe 2-3 little freakouts on weed alone in the past ~12 years but each time it was just me overreacting to a semi-stressful situation while waaaay too stoned. You should be fine if you take it easy, and remember if it happens, the worst will be over in an hour or so.

 

I used to smoke countless cones all the time, but after I left weed alone for a year or so I can only smoke a cone or two now without getting hot and cold chills and full body shakes.

I've never been able to handle alcohol mixed with weed, though, and I used to be a full-blown alcoholic. I think it just depends upon the individual.

I think it depends a lot on the strain too. porkstock41 has got the right idea. Have a pull, wait a while then a have another. Take is slowly and you should be fine.

 

Man I drank last night, having a good time, so I'm like sure I'll take a blunt hit. 1 1/2 hits and it sent me to a way different place and I could still feel the weed anxiety permeating thru the alcohol which normally just seems like a good combo. I felt like the booze made me not show it on the outside but the weed made me get all nervous on the inside.

 

crossbuzzing is worse than just being stoned or just being drunk, IMO.

 

Definitely try pot on its own for your first time!

though i actually don't mind mixing alcohol and weed at all. I was at a party last week..basically just drinking beers (and a little of my friends mixed drink) but there were joints going around..ended up taking a few hits.

Those hits ended up making me feel very nice.. and actually i think kept me from becoming very drunk. Had a lot of great conversations haha

 

Well if you're nervous when you smoke, you might get a little paranoid, but that can easily fixed by Jack Johnson and a blanket. Now if you smoke a whole lot, you might get a little crazy, but in a good way

 

I'm guessing marijuana is just gonna make you paranoid.. maybe try cooking with it.. usually there is more of a body high than mental high.. taking a little bit of a edge off of the paranoia or anxiety.. also maybe you need to be in a better environment than surrounded by tons of people

 

I used to love mixing but now im a bit older it just doesnt react well anymore. If i mix now its quite common for me to just faint. could this be to a head injury i received??? I dont get any paranoia or anything like that.
Anyway your first few times smokin the herb you shouldnt mix because the initial high from good weed or hash is overwelming enough and doesnt want ruining with alcohol.

 

if i'm going to smoke while i'm drinking, i like to only smoke a little bit. if i'm going to get baked, a beer or two can be nice but no more than that.

 

even if there wasnt pot in this story it would have ended badly considering you had no food in your stomach and was pounding back liquor like it's the end of the world. 4lokos especially.

pot is best when not mixed with alcohol.

 

Dont drink alot when your smoking, or even better dont drink at all.
