Try Marijuana

Wow, the entries I just read that were posted before me are HILARIOUS but more importantly, they are absolutely fascinating. I want to feel like that.

Two nights ago I was kinda drunk at a party and I went outside to smoke with some friends (this was basically the first time I’d tried pot), but I can’t tell if I got high at all or not because I was already a bit drunk and partying like crazy.

I think I need to try this at a different time, in a different place, not drunk, etc. Unfortunately, the people around here that usually smoke are ehhh and they always have to sneak around as to not get caught. I really want to try getting high at a concert so I can listen to the music with all my heart.

Yeah, I used to be one of those “If you do drugs, then you are just a loser, find something better to do than waste your life”. Then, there I was, 16 years old, at a friend’s house. He had mixed some marijuana into some oil to make this mix stuff, and he said a teaspoon full would get you nicely high. I had zero drug experience whatsoever, had only even been drunk a few times before too, so the whole “altered consciousness” thing was all new to me.
Well, I took some. Now eating marijuana is quite different from smoking it. First of all, it hits you really hard and lasts like twice as long, but takes a bit of time to kick in. I eat a teaspoon full, and played Super Smash bros Melee for a while.
About an hour afterwards, I stand up and all of a sudden I notice the most amazing feeling I have ever had: it felt like my entire body was underwater, and was swaying with the waves, or with the current. I took a few steps forward and I felt like I was walking in slow motion, time had come to a near stop. I was just absolutely amazed, it was even better than my friend said it would be.
Another hour later it reaches it’s full climax. My vision was doing something funny, things seemed to bounce slightly, or my vision would kinda jiggle a little bit, the walls were waving and melting. If I touched an object, it felt like I could feel every atom in that object, I felt like everything I touched was enhanced so much, simply walking was nearly overwhelming because of the rubbing of my pants on my skin, I could feel even my arm hairs touching the air, it was incredible.
I listened to some music and again, I couldn’t believe it. Every note seemed like a song in itself, and I felt the emotion in the songs so much, every sad song touched my heart, every happy song made me happy and pleasant, stimulating my mind farther than what I can possibly describe here. My personality had changed, too. I was very laid back, and was giggly, light and nice to be around.

Overrall, it was absolutely the most amazing and heavenly experience I have ever had. For anyone concerned about the negative health benifits, buy a vaporizer, since most of what is bad for you in smoking pot is just that it is being burned and thus many chemicals are released, but a vaporizer eliminates like 95% of that. Look up vaporizer on wikipedia.

I STRONGLY recommend everyone to at least try it once, it’s different for everyone so maybe it won’t be the same for you, but it was something I would regret not trying, and I will be doing it again in the future.

The first and second times I tried smoking weed I didn’t really get high at all. On my third try, it hit me like a train that I was high. My friends and I were walking in a school under construction at night. I remember feeling as if I were in a dream and my body was in many different places at once. It’s very hard to even begin to explain how things looked. It felt as if I were underwater because everything was rippled. I remember that electrical cords looked like trees and they startled me. When we went outside, buildings seemed to melt. I laid down to look at the stars and I’ll never forget that. They were spiraling toward the brightest star in the middle. The longer I stared at them, the more it felt like I was rushing toward them. I thought I was in many different places that were farmiliar to me as a child. The darker hues were darker than usual and the brighter ones brighter, only to enhance eachother dramatically. I remember feeling as if I were in a futuristic city or in space or something. We drove to Wal-Mart, but I can’t remember the ride at all. All I can remember was yelling that I didn’t wan’t to talk to anyone and I was “So High!” I came home, listened to music, and ate. It’s almost as if I could SEE every little part of the music. And food was friggin’ amazing. Sorry to blab so much, but I felt like I needed to express every part of that amazing experience. I plan only to do it only about once a year, as I hear stoners saying that they wish they could be high like their first time.

Fucking with your brain is very unnatural and as a result smoking weed is a big risk for your physical and mental health. It is said that almost half of regular Cannabis smokers will develop some form of anxiety, while about 6% will develop schizophrenia. Life is defined by a series of moments and choices so think twice when people say that smoking doesn’t define who you are.

TOTALLY worth it!

It was out of a bong and in my friend’s Volvo on our way to see a Modest Mouse/REM show at the Hollywood Bowl last Thursday. I took a couple hits off some indica and some sativa. I coughed a lot and it really burned. Apparently he didn’t add enough water, so he put in more, and the smoke went down smoother. I couldn’t really feel anything except for a slight disappointment that I, uh, couldn’t feel anything. But it’s a lot like falling asleep: you can’t really tell the exact moment it starts setting in and you’re high, it just sort of happens. I didn’t realize it until I looked down at my watch and noticed that the seconds were taking seconds to pass. I walked outside and I was a total spazz. I walked along the cracks of the sidewalk and pretended to be an airplane and suddenly everything around me became so fascinating. And let me tell you: the music had a much more profound effect on me, and music means a lot to me as it is. They put a sad song on the radio in between sets and I felt really depressed. Modest Mouse played The View and I could hear each individual instrument in exact detail. But my attention span was extremely short sided and I couldn’t control my actions at all. I went through complete depersonalization. Some guy was handing out global warming fliers and I yelled, “WE’RE ALL FUCKING DOOMED ANYWAY”, without restraint and without feeling bad afterward because every few minutes or so I’d forget I wasn’t dreaming, I was just high.

Anyway. I think it’s worth doing at least once because it’s interesting and I guess I learned a lot about myself while I was stoned. I don’t know if I’m really going to do it again. But if I am, it will only be on occasion. Yeah.

I used to be a straight edge kid, by the way. I don’t know what happened. My curiosity got to me.

I just felt regular except a little sluggish and very tired. I guess Marijuana effects people differently. It just didn’t suit to my system well enough. I don’t think I’ll try it again, but I’m not against those who regularly use it.

it is very bad for your health and living life drug-free is so much better.

It makes you giggly and then tired or sometimes just tired.
I don’t need help in falling asleep.
By the way, I am 52 years old and tried pot many years ago.
I’m not about to try it again!!

I lost my voice for three days. I don’t know, maybe I smoked it wrong or something, but I don’t think I’ll ever try it again. I’m also not much for numbing thoughts and feelings, I’d much rather feel things to their greater extent, wether it be good or bad.
