Is being high always being so slow, trapped and dumb or is that too high?

I've only gotten high 4 times with months between each one. Every single time I just felt trapped, every single time felt uncomfortable with paranoia along too. It didn't mellow me out at all. The first time I got high I took 2 gbong hits. The second time I took 6 pipe hits, third time I took 8 pipe hits, fourth time I took 1 hit/got shotgunned/and a "rastafari hit". 3 of those highs were with loud.


I really want to see where one hit of something less intense or through a less efficient smoking device would take me instead. Is it just me or any weed high dumbs you down/zones you out to the max?
 
If you had a tolerance you'd enjoy it more. You're going into smoking good weed without a tolerance, and you're likely taking a solid dosage each time. Try tiny hits, or just one very small hit. It sounds like you are especially sensitive to cannabinoids.
 
I see. Tiny hits or weak MJ. I just could never get how people could like weed. I would be sedated all the way and uneasy at the same time. Everyone else would just kick back and chill and I'd be the only one walking around freaking out. Always hated kicking back while high, felt like I was slipping further away from reality so I'd always try to keep moving around to feel alive.
 
Can we trade cerebellums??

You're probably smoking until you feel a head change, if anything take a moment after each hit to give it a chance to set in. If nothing or you feel that you can tolerate more, then act accordingly. Maybe even try a few different strains to see if you do better with indicas or sativas. If no success, then maybe it's just not for you, but I'd try the above to see if anything changes. Best of luck!
 
You tried 2 bong hits and felt "too high" so then you tried 6 pipe hits and felt too high then you tried 8 pipe hits and felt too high... See the problem?

I would suggest 1 bong hit or 1 pipe hit and judge how that feels.
 
for (int i; i<High; i++) {
Take a small hit and let it sit for a few minutes.
}

I would also suggest making not-so-strong edibles.
My first use of cannabis was something like 0.1g of crappy hash divided into a lot of cookies, which were baked at ~220˚c (which is way too high and a bunch of cannabinoids probably evaporated) and I got an amazing, intense 8-hour high.
Edibles give off a much more pleasant high in my experience, at least when you have little to no tolerance.

To be honest, from my experience, that's weed all right. Dumbs you down, zones you out and makes your thinking cloudy, even if it might make you more creative and your thoughts racy at the same time. Pot heads are often considered absent-minded and forgetful. Everyone reacts individually so YMMV, but from the sound of it, for you it doesn't vary. I haven't heard of any regular smoker who complained that after abstaining from cannabis for a few weeks, their thinking got more cloudier and they were even more asbsent-minded/forgetful as a result lol.

Edibles especially feel a lot more sedating to me. I don't quite like this either, can't get anything accomplished during the day if I smoke, it's just a relaxation / sleeping medicine / sanity thing for me why I smoke. I don't feel like lighter doses eliminate the sedation altogether, but a super mini dose, say 20mg of good bud might be enough to alter your perceptions and make you high without dumbing things down too much, then you can work up the dose from there.
 
I just bought LOUD purple kush (all they had, plus i like body highs way more) rolled up 2 joints. I took 1 small hit and put it out. started feeling it immediately!!! im so relaxed, head feels kind of hot. I can think straight too, only very slightly slow. but fuck yes, i finally did it! no paranoia/panicky state, this is IT guys.

But damn, one pussy ass hit does it for me? What the fuck kind of brain do I have? lol.
 
@FnX: that's a poor stereotype of cannabis users. Most stoners i know are pretty fucking active and live high stress lives actually doing things every day.

for OP: it's your tolerance. Cannabis is an entirely different drug to people who use it everyday and its effects are vastly different from a new user. It may also depend on the strain, if you got a strong sativa then it can make your thoughts race/paranoia so just smoke regular cannabis and not stuff that is really high in thc (strain) which is usually a hybrid of some sort, at least in Canada it is. If you smoked 1 hit of some regular shit you should be high, that's the kind of high stoners get, they don't get the whole psychedelic high after long term use.

being high isn't always being slow, trapped, dumb or paranoid. If it were nobody would smoke it.
 
I finally like it now. Every other time I always took a lot of tokes off loud because of my fear of not getting high which is associated with my first attempts at even getting high the first time and also due to peer pressure. Then I'd look around at everyone confused and regret the rest of my day.

But I love body highs way more. I like having my body fly, but not my mind.
 
i'd say you have a normal brain, kush in particular is a great strain and is fucking strong so one tiny hit should get you there if you have no tolerance. With a huge tolerance anything can happen though, some people smoke several grams or more a day no problem, i still function fine just taking 1 or 2 hits off a vape every few hours at nights. I would look for indica dom strains or pure indicas if you like that body high.
 
OP, it's also possible that you are a slow metabolizer of cannabis. Every slow metabolizer I've met has had paranoia from smoking even a tiny bit too much because it lingers in their system for too long. If your high is extended due to a slow metabolism then that could contribute to feelings of being trapped.

Not only should you be taking tiny tokes and waiting, you should be smoking weed that is mild in strength. A lot of the strains out there in this day and age are bred to be strong.

It's also possible that weed is just not the drug for you, and there's nothing wrong with that. A lot of people have honestly given it a good go but it doesn't work out well in the end.
 
I just took another hit 70 minutes late with my other lightweight buddy whose just like me. My head is feeling a little bit warmer, body feels more mellowed at as if a blanket kind of fell on me. A tiny bit out of it but nothing scary. Now we're feeling easy. I'm 60% high now. I don't feel too far from reality THANK GOD. My body feels like a puddle of liquid feeling warm but chill at the toes.

I also feel kind of "iced" inside. It kind of feels like having a mushy body as if you've got the flu and on medicine.

This drug has a very herbal feels very herbal holy fuck I just typed that a little high. I don't feek trapped or really dumb so it's all good. holy fuck this sentence felt like it took me 10 minutes to type. I just have noooo anxiety or impatience whereas whenever I was too high my anxiety was high (no pun intended) because I couldn't wait for the high to be over. Damn I feel pretty smart saying that pun intended shit bahaha. I feel like I'm on cruise control nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Stay tokin' my friends.

Ok so I'm 69% high. Anyways it feels like a cozy high for sure.......I was so hungry (currently popping kernels on a pan w/ extra virgin oil now) that I just got up, left my house, and walked to the gas station do buy a donut in the cold. Ate it on the way back home. Everything feels kinda cartoony and light headed, I love it.

haha, smokin a bowl and reading this...laughing now..sorrry, anyway i couldnt smoke comfortably for years, when i was 12 and just starting i mainly smoked out of peer pressure(i preferred acid)but everytime i did i would have to put my head down, i would get the spins and feel like puking the whole time, even years down the road when some of the symptoms went away i would get anxiety so bad it would put me back in to a bad lsd trip i had while up on speed, every time i smoked i would be right back in what we called scorzeldeborf land instantly. fast forward many heroin habbits later and i am on the marijuana maintenance therapy program(and methadone) i simply cant live w/o it and life gets too surreal w/o it, its weird, so your not a freak or anything in fact lots of people have these reactions...and things can change, hope that helps. oh and yeah man small hits of good stuff is the best way for you evidently...never go for low quality, its best to have less of good quality as the other has less medicinal compounds.

What, you mean most pot heads you know don't have short-term memory problems leading to forgetfulness and absent-mindedness? That was my only generalization about stoners, I know stoners who are much more active than me too. Nevertheless, I don't believe it to be a performance enhancing drug, let's say it makes you dumber cloudier and less active especially if you're a chronic user. Most people who live high stress lives and get about doing many things on a daily basis smoke after all their duties, in the evening, at their own home. They rarely do important things intoxicated, but living a high stress life often means you gotta let out some steam too y'know? Medical use is medical use, not counting that.

Just look at how intelligent OP's texts got when he started writing high, absolutely no offense intended ;D

that's actually pretty normal dude. if i've taken a break i have to readjust myself by starting small just like that. one or two little tokes, then i guess you kinda have your "feet in the water" and can use more when you desire without the mega intensity.
 
Yeah, nothing wrong with your brain. Think about the bright side: your weed will last longer. I am just like you. I use a gram in 5-6 sessions, it's really nice. Two to four hits and I'm good. I'm very sensitive to THC and I smoke once in 2-3 weeks, so tolerance never raises. I'd sure want to get even higher, couchlock and all that stuff, but I usually can't, as I need to smoke outdoors and then either spend the day out on the town or get back home and look pretty sober, so as not to raise suspicions. Therefore, I need to maintain a certain degree of functionality... :)
