-- Posted by pcxjockey7 at 7:32 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 The first couple times I smoked weed, I was really happy and excited, but now, when I attempt to smoke I get paranoid, my lips turn a SLIGHT blue, I start to get REALLY cold and scared, and I just want it to stop. What has changed me? All my friends REALLY enjoy weed, and I want to be able to too. We smoke from a wooden pipe, idk how many hits I should take to get a semi- less severe effect. -- Posted by bbygrl84 at 7:32 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 How many hits do you usually take -- Posted by newman at 7:33 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 Live ABOVE the influence. -- Posted by xJosex at 7:33 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 Dont Worry Thats How It Starts. -- Posted by Rikk at 7:33 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 It was probably you and not the weed. -- Posted by SexxxayParty at 7:33 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 maybe you just need to smoke more of it -- Posted by metacarPi at 7:33 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 it will go away. :) -- Posted by stinkerbell at 7:33 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 wow....are you sure that what you're smoking is good? -- Posted by pcxjockey7 at 7:34 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 I usually take like 7 hits. -- Posted by PewPew at 7:34 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 Smoke with some nice music playing in a place you are very comfortable with. Have food and drinks available. I smoke then hang out with friends for the day and not eat till I get home. But if you want a relaxing high that might help. Or find some other brand or strain or dealer, experiment with the amount. Whatever. -- Posted by Alexisohyeah at 7:35 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 Depending on how many hits you take is how severe your high will be. Also the quality of the weed will really effect your high spectrum. I honestly think that its all in your head. If you're expecting it to be bad. It will end up being bad. Maybe you should try smoking with different people, or in a different environment. But I've never honestly had a bad high. So i can't really relate to this unfortunate chain of events. -- Posted by bbygrl84 at 7:38 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 Quote: from pcxjockey7 at 7:34 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 I usually take like 7 hits. aha maybe thats why. -- Posted by MushroomSatsujin at 7:52 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 Quote: from pcxjockey7 at 7:34 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 I usually take like 7 hits. Do you get good weed? Even for me, a few hits of good weed will do me. -- Posted by pcxjockey7 at 7:54 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 yeah it's good. I had Purple Haze at one point. Now I don't know what I smoke. The dealer just sells it. But I trust him, I know it isn't laced. -- Posted by MushroomSatsujin at 7:56 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 Quote: from pcxjockey7 at 7:54 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 yeah it's good. I had Purple Haze at one point. Now I don't know what I smoke. The dealer just sells it. But I trust him, I know it isn't laced. I believe purple haze is supposed to be extinct. Either way, 7 hits of good weed is alot -- Posted by Afu at 8:19 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 Quote: from pcxjockey7 at 7:54 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 yeah it's good. I had Purple Haze at one point.

Too much. Have one or two. -- Posted by MusicArtLife at 10:01 am on Aug. 24, 2008 Im thinking the ill effects you are getting are more to do  with your mind than the weed. After smoking for more than a year, a lot of negative stuff started happening in my life and fucked me up mentally. I started to hyperventilate when I smoked, and I thought I couldn't breathe, I thought certain parts of my body hurt and I freaked out and thougt I should go to the doctor like, once a week. There was never anything wrong, I was just mentally not where I used to be when I first started smoking, and I let the paranoia of the high get to me on things my mind ws already weary over. But mind over matter. I started to catch myself during these times and tell myself it was all in my head. Id take deep breaths and calmly talk myself down. It really helped. I would say just try to bring your number of hits down a few, work back up to 7 hits after you've figured out this situation. Getting even slightly less high can help you better think through what's going on. If you feel these effects you've described, try to remmember its in your head, breathe calmly and rationalize. If you continue to see these effects, consult your doctor just to be safe. don't tell him you get high unless you want to, but just tell him you sometimes get these symtoms and were just curious to make sure its nothing. -- Posted by La Motta at 10:42 am on Aug. 24, 2008 Ah I hate that paranoia buzz!!! You just keep thinking about stuff and freaking out, yeah?? I get that sometimes, just don't worry about it, it's all in your head!! ;0) -- Posted by Skip at 10:47 am on Aug. 24, 2008 you're taking too many hits, take 1 or 2 and wait for like 5 minutes to see how u feel, some stuff will creep up on u like that -- Posted by BackPorch at 1:59 am on Aug. 28, 2008 Quote: from Alexisohyeah at 7:35 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 Depending on how many hits you take is how severe your high will be.

I tell people to invest in Mavis Beacon all the fucking time. -- Posted by Azi at 8:52 pm on Sep. 29, 2008 I've been paranoid the past few times but it's for legit reasons, my friends want to smoke ANYWHERE, and then it seems like it's up to me to think rationally and get us somewhere to avoid trouble. That's why I'm not smoking anymore unless I know I won't have anything like that to worry about.
