My first time, I was at a house party in the garden sat down on a bench with my mate and I smoked the whole joint to myself. I didn't feel anything at first but eventually I was completely out of it. I remember laughing at the grass and then laughing at myself for laughing at the grass, it was a continuous cycle and I was probably on the floor in stitches for at least 20 minutes. Then I ate about 20 bags of potato chips and passed out.

I agrih, although the trippy strains can be fun if you're in like your house just chilling with friends, or watching Netflix. Rick and Morty while stoned >>> life

The eating is the worst because my ass does NOT need all the carbs but it's inevitable

Yeah I do like the trippy one when I'm outside chilling on a bench with friends. Preferably in the dark.

I LOVE it when we're chilling in a circle telling funny stories while on the laughy one. My favorite kind of nights.

I didnt have a choking fit but I couldn't stop laughing, I was a mess

Yeah. But I think that's pretty common, especially in the middle America/West Coast.

I just caught the giggles the first time tbh. Start out with a little and see how you like it.

it just made me horny and since I was in a room full of straight men it was an extremely awful experience.

Smoking weed at 10? Common?! Girl.. bye.

Thats the last thing i need right now lol

I tried it once in London and don't intend on doing it again unless I go to amsterdam.

I smoked a joint. They 'taught' me the method and everything.

It was extremely painful in my chest. The burning was absolutely awful and didn't let me enjoy the experience of being high because I was in pain throughout.

My mucus was green for the next two days and I coughed like hell.

I was also drinking that night, and basically had a hangover the next day but I kept thinking that there was something wrong with my body's response to the weed

It genuinely wasn't enjoyable not because being high isn't nice, but all the other side-effects that come with it are a little overbearing for me.

It never made me horny tbh.

And don't drink alcohol when smoking weed.
Do either the one or the other, not both at the same time.

The first time I got high was in 2012 on my birthday. My friends and I spent the night in a tent in the backyard and I spent the whole night trying to figure out Yoko Ono's intentions for her crazy ass performances. I thought I figured it out and to me the explanation was solid and Yoko Ono was a complete genius. The next day I realized however I was just high and didn't solve ****. Yoko Ono is just crazy, but the weed got me thinking about the greater scheme of things.

my biggest regret.... the thing is if I was sober I wouldnt have had the balls to try it...

I'll stick to my pure vodka I think...

My first time was after an English lesson. I felt a bit dazed/dizzy for a split second but that's all. Probably because the girl who was teaching me to smoke didn't teach me properly. Bring water with you! Your throat will feel dry as a desert

The first time (infact, the first 5 or so times) I did it I didn't feel anything. The reason why was because I did not know how to smoke properly. It's not the same as breathing in air, you have to like breathe in twice. The first time inhale into your mouth, then breathe in again to inhale the smoke that's in your mouth into your lungs. You should have a friend who knows how to smoke with you the first time to teach you, or else it might take 5+ goes before you feel anything.

But when you do feel it, it's different for different people, and depends on the strain of weed. Even with the same kind of weed and the same person the effects can vary each time.

- You will PROBABLY feel very happy.

- You MIGHT not be able stop laughing (if you watch Family Guy or something like that when you're high it's hilarious)

- You MIGHT fall asleep (weed is good since it makes it very easy to fall asleep, but some people end up depending on it for sleeping)

- You MIGHT feel very paranoid and anxious, with heart beating fast, etc. (if you do go somewhere by yourself and lie down a bit, take deep breaths, drink water, eat food. You will either feel okay after a while or you will fall asleep and wake up the next day. You will NEVER die from weed, but you can pass out/fall asleep/vomit from it)

- You will PROBABLY have poor short term memory (it makes for very funny situations (and awkward situations occasionally), but something that you watch on TV you will likely forget 90% of it and have to watch it again, which can be a good thing since it means you get to "enjoy" TV shows and movies over and over again since you can't remember so much of them haha)

- You will PROBABLY get quite hungry (people call it the "munchies", I tend not to eat very much when I'm sober but sometimes when I'm stoned I eat junk food endlessly, wondering how my body is coping haha. On the positive side, weed increases your metabolism, so you won't get quite as fat from the food you eat as you expect, and if you manage to resist the urge to eat you can lose weight a lot faster)

- You will PROBABLY get a dry mouth. Sometimes it gets so dry that you can't speak properly, and at the same time you're so stoned you can't be bothered/are too tired to get a glass of water. You still feel really happy so you don't care that much, but I would recommend having a drink by you, especially if you're expecting to be talking when stoned.

I'd recommend lying down after you smoke. Relax yourself. If you sit up you might find your heart beating fast and get anxious, especially if you're an introvert and around other people.

NOTE: My post is only based on my experiences (and those of my many friends who smoke weed). I smoked weed every day for 4 years and I quit because I'm pretty sure it was having effects on my brain and the weed itself wasn't effecting me in the same way that it used to (it became worse over time). It was a lot of fun during the good times though, but I personally would not recommend getting into a habit of smoking it every day. Some people do it their whole lives and seem to be fine, but things went bad for me and might for you too. In lots of my friends I see the effects of weed on them too, but they're all currently in denial about it (well, one says acknowledges he's addicted to it but hasn't realised the effect its had on his personality yet), but I think eventually they're going to realise and quit. Eventually.

Also, about weed and alcohol. For me personally if I smoke weed when I'm drunk I ALWAYS vomit and then fall asleep. I've done this about 30+ times. Always the same. However, if I'm stoned and then get drunk it's honestly quite nice. I think if you get stoned first then start drinking for most people it's OK (as long as you don't smoke anymore after you start drinking). But the other way around makes me and a few others sick. However, I do know a lot of people who can smoke weed when drunk and be completely fine. I was very jealous of them back when I smoked! I tried so many times but it never worked. Always the same routine, 1 or 2 tokes, the world starts spinning round, I feel my insides moving, I run to the toilet, get sick, then find my bed, pass out, wake up the next morning. Always the same. I don't know why some people can do it and others can't, but you might just have to try it once to find out lol. It won't kill you, but it can be rough until you fall asleep.

I tried it for the first time at 17 in Dublin and 1) it was winter at the smoked warmed my chest nicely 2) we were out in a bar called The Goat with friends, and they were playing C'mon by Kesha in one of the TVs and I vibed the whole night through after that song came on.
Then I stopped for a while, and now I do it on a regular basis almost. I spent this past summer in Tacoma (Washington state) and the accessible weed made me fall in love with the West Coast. Particularly good experiences: alone in my room in the dark playing In My Blood by the Veronicas on my headphones at full volume or watching Grease with a friend and laughing or asses off, making the most stupid comments ever, high as **** and then eating Lucky Charms for the munchies and also being by the water, playing Love Drought in the car and just melting into the night
Also, recently had an experience of religious proportions back home, at my boyfriend's apartment (high af playing Moonlight by Ari and standing by the window daydreaming about Europe and then Wild by Troye came next on shuffle and it felt like falling in love with him for the first time )
Do it. Weed will improve your life and heighten your appreciation for the little details

You either feel nothing or you feel everything. i thought i was having a heart attack the first time i smoked weed
