Heya.

Ahh, les' see. I first tried smoking weed from a joint about 6 or 7 months ago now. First time I fucked it up because I didn't inhale properly, I just let the smoke float around aimlessly in my mouth. At least I didn't pay for that joint, so no money wasted.

Second time I inhaled properly, and coughed a hell of a lot. This was from a marijuana-only joint -- no Tobacco or anything else. I felt mildly silly and giggled a lot at things I'd normally not laugh at. This, sadly, was the best high I've had so far.

Third time was from a new dealer, a good friend who's nicking his dad's stash for fun and money (cheeky bastard), and I smoked 3 damn joints and hardly got high at all. I felt slighty dizzy, but that's all, really.

Just tonight a friend and I made hash butter. He told me with confidence that if this doesn't get me high, either doing something very very wrong somehow, or I'm some sort of hyper mutant monster freak who sneers at humanities feeble weed-smoking business and I'll try and take over the world and killyouallandthenialbiewbwciwnc...

Uhh, anyway, all the cannabutter's done is made me feel hideously tired. I spent an hour and a half lying on my couch-bed thingy, half-watching Futurama DVDs. I assume that this isn't a proper high.

Any idea what's going on? With joints, I inhale deeply (and feel my goddamn lungs catch fire), hold for 5 seconds, breath out, take another large hit. All that. With the cannabutter I... uh. Simply ate it on toast, I guess.

Maybe I just keep getting dud weed, but I doubt it. Everyone else seems to be getting high of it.

Any tips with joint smoking? Any idea what's going on from my vauge, rambling descriptions? (I enjoy just writing away, off-the-cuff without much editing, sorry) Any idea whatsoever? I've heard some people don't get high their first few times, but I dunno.

Anything?
 
Do you know how to smoke and inhale properly? Perhaps pot isn't your thing?

I've heard of people smoking it and it just does not do anything for them. A friend of mine smoked a blunt or two in highschool and he said how it was just very boring to him and he did not find it enjoyable at all but he enjoys booze in small and moderate amounts.

I know other people who do not like pot at all and highly prefer other drugs to it.
 
This is personal but hey, we're talking about drugs after all, are you currently taking any medications? If so, that could be an issue depending on the drug.

I've mused on that train of thought, but since I'm new to drugs, I thought it'd be arrogant to say it doesn't effect me much. I guess weed just isn't for me. I've tried a some pills that I liked, though, so I guess I'll just explore other drugs.

And nope, not on any medication. ... Not that I'm aware of anyway. :(

Thanks guys.
 
Keep trying smoking pot, sometimes it can take awhile for someone to enjoy being high or stoned. Also make sure you are smoking it correctly and holding in your tokes.
 
It sounds like your not smoking enough maybe? roll a nice fatty for yourself and sit down and toke it. If the weed is any good you WILL get high.

Unless you can just naturally handle a weed high, in which case thats a shame for you dude. :(
 
Smoke a few bowls outta a proper bowl(or preferably bong) and you'll be blazed.

This. I didn't get high from smoking until about the 10th time I smoked. It can sometimes take a couple tries for your body to react to certain drugs.
 
Do you have any way of knowing if the bud you're getting is decent compared to the world of bud?

It's possible you've just not been smoking enough of the right bud in the right way. Get your hands on something that shines like snow, pack a .3g bowl w/tobacco, do it all in one, hold to the count of 3 and talk to us in the morning.

Cannibutter can have mixed effects depending on a lot of factors, not just the bud, so if you can't get high from smoking then butter will probably have a lesser chance. How big are you, and did your friend eat it with you? An extremely tired high might just be from over-cooking it.

How much have you been eating/smoking at a time?
 
yeah get some nice looking bud, then take a fat rip from the bong. hold it a couple seconds. exhale slow, lay back and enjoy
 
If you're using every-day, It would probably be wise to limit use to weekends. It really helped me when I got to the point that you're at. It didn't stop the inevitable panic attacks that seem to strike many long-term THC users, but it helped.

I'm not an expert, but my friend nicks it from his dad, and his dad says he gets good stuff. He's been smoking it for years, so I assume he must. Assume, that is.

I've been smoking about 2-3 damn joints, to no real effect, save that one time I got kinda buzzed.

Coming Wednesday, another friend is lending me his pipe. Pipes do him much better than joints, so I'll give that a shot. I'm kinda hopeful about it, really.
 
smoke a bong, its the most efficient way to consume your cannabis. Don't assume its good bud if you have no idea. His dad might smoke schwag.
 
As others have said, you really need several tries to appreciate the effect. Your brain needs time to adapt. Same for sushis, or ginger candies, not everyone like them on their first tries, or are able to appreciate the nuances in the taste from the beginning. Also try to avoid having *any* expectation of what the high should or should not be. Just relax, be calm, and after several tries you will see what it is, what it can be for YOU, and if you like it, or not. Not everyone does. I am a very recent inhaler, and I am not sure yet if I like it or not. But answer seems to be going toward "yes" more and more :-)
