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

You've had a lot of responses and I haven't had time to go through all of them so I'm sorry if what I'm about to say has already been said: people forget that weed is a hallucinogen; if you're experiencing bad effects then you'd do well to stop using. Seriously man, why would you still ingest cannabinoids if you don't like it?

@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.

man dont worry about only needing one hit, a lot of the weed these days is fucking intense. at least where i grew up. I think i started smoking weed at a pivotal point because while we never had shitty weed with a ton of seeds, we also very rarely had real good stuff either. With a little tolerance we would smoke like maybe three bowls each and be good, but the medical scene has changed everything the last few years. I dont remember the last time i bought weed in california that i could take more than one big hit and not be too high.

There are alot of people out there that wish they could get some intense stuff like that, consider yourself lucky. Also if it couldn't 'freak you out' a bit it wouldn't be much of a thrill anymore would it? It's supposed to make you examine certain aspects of your life.

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?

Weed took some time for me to learn to enjoy, in the beginning when I was a teenager I felt like you. I used to hang around a group of older addicts (mostly tweakers) that just smoked, smoked, smoked and never ever stopped lol. I'd take 5 hits and be so gone I didn't know what was what.

My tip is just to smoke less, you do not need to smoke as much as your buddies if you are smoking with them. There is no competition who can smoke the most

Weed can take some time to learn to enjoy fully, in the beginning I very often got anxiety from smoking too much. I haven't had that in like 7 years now and I don't think I ever will again because of tolerance.

Can we trade cerebellums??

I don't know why but I can't stop laughing at that god damn gif.





Also, can someone explain what a "rastafari hit" is? I'm good with everything else in the OP but I've never heard of this one...

Alsox2, I'm kind of curious as to what would happen if you just said fuck it and faced a J to yourself, Nyseto. It's like... in your situation it sounds like a really tempting gamble to me.

I'd say it just means your high. If i smoke more then 1 bong (about a 0.1 -0.2) then i get as you describe.

If i just stick to joints even a 1 gram joint won't give me any of what you mentioned. id stick to joints if you are using bongs. its a better less intence expeirence. It really all depends what you are looking for though in you high.
