when i smoke i get mad spaced out and dont really talk. then i get really burnt out and need to sleep to come down. otherwise im just spaced and tired. weed makes me wicked anxious, to the point where i just lock up, my heart beats wicked fast, i cant even handle it. any advice from people who've dealt with similar shit? i dont really smoke much anymore because of it, i wish i could but i cant, id like to get back to it if i could.

yea it sounds like you want to be a social smoker but you aren't used to it yet? why don't you try just taking like only two or three hits next time and go from there.

AlteredStateGrl

Unless you can actively make yourself do something positive while high, I'm with Turmaline here. Why keep doing it? Everyone reacts differently...for many reasons. Environments have alot to do with highs. So does your mental state. Are you comfortable where you are (physically)? You're going to have to get a handle on yourself or not smoke because I don't see how, going from your description, that it's positve or beneficial for you in anyway at this point.

try just chillin alone or maybe with like 1 friend and do somethin mellow. experience the good side of weed that you dont seem to have experienced...and decide if it's something thats good for you

^ werd. im pretty introverted when i smoke too. i usually dont smoke at public outings and with a bunch of friends even if they do just because of that. i like to just relax with my g/f and veg out on the couch or play around in my studio when i smoke.

but if its totally a horrible experience for you when you smoke, maybe just hang up the spurs. like asg says, cannabis effects everyone differently.

i used to get anxious when i first started tokin bongs, the high was really intense for me and i was smoking way more than i needed. i used to wonder how people could smoke n smoke n smoke without getting messed up. now im seasoned and i can toke constantly but i have a tolerance so i cant get too high off one hit anymore.

id say just take 1 toke and do something relaxing. you can always take another hit if you feel like youre not getting the desired level of effect

when I first started blazin I used to be that way or when I was in an uncomfortable environment. You need to slowly build up a tolerance level.

I eventually got to smoking all day every day no problem, I stopped for about a year and now im sort of back at square one... depending on how you look at it lol

greengreengreen

yeah, like i used to smoke everyday n stuff, i wish i could still handle it but i just get geeked out. then i feel like a pussy because its only weed, ive done other drugs no problem. i guess i just have anxiety problems unrelated to weed that cause the uncomfortable feeling of the high

TheGrandPuba

Bingo.


Like msicidron mentioned above, try smoking alone and see how you like it. If you don't like it then weed isn't for you.

stoneric

What? You feel less macho becaues weed fucks you up? Man, lose that bullshit attitude about everything and you'll be better off.

Dr. Bondi diagnossis:


Sounds like you are smoking very good weed with heavy smokers.
As a noob you are simply overdosing.

Try making a joint with a tiny amount of weed or a very small pipe / head.
Also try doing it by yourself in a secure and comfortable place with a good vibe and some nice music.

Grass Can be very trippy.

see, ive tried all of this, ive smoked alone plenty, i think thats possibly what might have started this. i guess i used to smoke too much, so id go on guilt trips about it and shit. but good suggestions either way, its simply a mindset i cant get out of.

420smokeman

Try doing something different next time you smoke. Go outside, do something besides going inside and smoking more. Enjoy it, do it with others.

I am exactly the opposite man,

I am very quite and shy while im sober, usually very mellow and chill.
I am very happy, talkative, and socialble while im high...
or the first one if im ripping bongs... lol

The most important part is to remain calm, believe me, if you are careful enough you will not get caught by parents, police, or others if that is the source of your anxiety. What ever it is thats bothering you, you gotta block it out. If you are having problems talking to people, just go on XBOX LIVE and talk to randoms, or whatever you do.

And man, weed makes you tired... its a fact.
