Whenever I smoke (3 times...), I always feel unsure and naughus the first few minutes, then mellow out and like a wave of coldness comes over me, then I'm high and fine... Is this normal?
I guess, its all your head, I used to get that, and when I hadnt smoked for a while and I got some weed Id be really happy and feel like the king when I was baked. Its all in your head.
Also, My throats ddry as a mother, And my feet/legs involuntarily shift and shit, and my keyboard is always spinnging, but not a full turn, just a bit....
sounds like your scared of being high to me. to busy worrying about the bad stuff (even tho most of them are in your head), to enjoy the good.
i used to get cottonmouth all the time (dry mouth) and i used to get a little nauseous too. never anymore though. everyone grows as a stoner, the way you percieve it, the way you do it, and the experience itself, all change as you get to know the plant more. in terms of the keyboard and stuff spinning, some people aremore susceptable to this sort of thing than others. just remember: always have water handy. actually i barely go anywhere without access to water, but the easiest way to combat cottonmouth is to drink lots of water, and spit if you feel like it. but yeh, i havnt had cottonmouth in ages, whereas when i started, id get it all the time. all you need to remember is that while you may be scared that your throat will close or get injured or whatever, youll never die from just smoking weed, ever.
aall of my above posts were when i was high... and semi freaking out... but to add to the list of questions... is it bad to smoke stems that are mixed in? I've kept my weed scrunched up for months before getting the balls to try it, so alot of it is crushed into almost a rough powder. Is it still usable? And what exaclty is getting high. What actually makes you high? like whats goin on in ya? also, longteerm/shortterm negative effects? Sorry for abundance of questions...
is it bad to smoke stems that are mixed in? They usually cause headaches and also have very little THC in them. Best to not smoke stems. I've kept my weed scrunched up for months before getting the balls to try it, so alot of it is crushed into almost a rough powder. Is it still usable? Of course And what exaclty is getting high. What actually makes you high? like whats goin on in ya? The THC (tetrahydrocannibinol,sp) is the stuff in the marijuana that gets you "high." Not sure of the EXACT process but it gets the job done. also, longteerm/shortterm negative effects? None that I know of and I have educated myself quite a bit. If you count nonphysical effects, there is always the legal standpoint on it. It is of course illegal. I hope I helped a bit.
and instead of starting a new thread, can someone show me a picture of a water bong and gravity bong?
annnddd while I'm at it, my heart rate always increases on weed. since hte heart only has so many beats, couldn't this technically lead to an earlier death?
hehe you remind me of my first smoking days, where getting high was the best god damn thing, until I developed a love for halucinagenins(sp?). All those "symtoms" or effects your were bringing up are nothing abnormal, and you shouldnt worry about it. Marijuana wouldnt be so widely used if it didnt do wierd things to you, you agree? So whenever you feel something wierd after smoking weed, just realize that this is why marijuana, is marijuana. peace easy
Could you explain to me why active people (who constantly raise their heart rate) generally live longer?
People who are more active have a lower heart rate(when resting) then those who aren't active. Also raised heart rate from weed is different then from physical activity and so is caffiene in a whole other sense... I guess if your terribly out of shape you should worry about the heart increase. I think the heart rate increase on weed isn't too bad, its only bad if you focus on it because i find it just makes it seem worse than it is. When i first got high i used to freak out a bit also, everything was a new experience and scary. I would be moving my hands and it seemed like they'd move only after i thought about it(like i'd tell myself "move hands to sink", then 2secs later they'd do it), like i was controlling a robot. Once you mellow out and accept the high its all good. Just do something to keep your mind off things like that, example is listen to music and zone out in your thoughts .
if your really interested, go back a few pages and read threads that look like theyd solve your problem. there is a fuckload of information amongst all the posts, and almost every single question about weed has been asked and answered (whether right or wrong, often both)
I still caugh and feeluneasy after my first huge blade hit. But damn its blade hits. At home I most often take easier hits from my pipe, not like tiny little ones but I am not looking to caugh up an organ. Being stoned is cool caughing is not.
