I smoked it probably 7 or 8 times when I was in my late teens and early 20s. I didn't care for it at all and the last time I smoked it was probably around 1993 or 1994 and I was high as a kite and extremely paranoid for almost a complete 24 hours. Everyone says it must have been laced with something. I said never again. Give me my beer and liquor.

Remind me to tell you about how I smoked up during my senior skip day in high school - and spent the entire day hiding in the bathroom because I was afraid the boys were going to throw me in the lake.

vaporizers are great, but I missed the actual smoking part, even if a thick cloud & feeling the burn is not necessary for getting high and is unhealthy. You get super high if you are not experienced, though, because you feel like no smoke is going in your lungs and you take huge hits.

plus it's too complicated. I was a pipe smoker myself, but have not smoked since 2002

Canadians are serious about their marijuana.

Well, damn. I need to move to Canada.

I've been smoking since I was in my early 20's. The first time I tried it, absolutely nothing happened. Zip, nadda, zero, nothing. The second time, I ended up on all fours crawling back to my college dormitory room. I've found over the years that marijuana has many different strains/varieties and strengths. Depending on whether it's sativa or indica can determine what kind of "head" you get, or whether it's more of a "body high." Most of the time weed mellows me out, makes me sleepy and gives me the munchies. Other weed can have me so hyped up, I will clean my house and my neighbor's after half a joint! The strongest weed I ever had was that hydroponic stuff. LAWDHAMERCYFATHERJOHNQPUBLIC!

I remember one of the reasons my parents didn't want me moving there was because of the drugs. I guess they knew something I didn't. They didn't know they raised a non-smoker.

I live in California, more specifically NorCal and the Bay Area, and unless you're an idiot buying some dirt, ALL the weed here will knock you on your ass. Some of the cannibus club strains in particular are mind bogglingly "stoney". But 9 out of every 10 people I know smoke. Nearly all of them do so while going about their normal everyday lives. No paranoia. No worries. It's just pot. I'm much more concerned about people driving after having even a COUPLE drinks than I am smokers. Oh, look out, he's going too slow!

I've never been paranoid on any drug, ever, not once, in my entire life. I don't understand why anybody would decide to do drugs and then be paranoid that somebody might know you're high. Because, ya know, YOU ARE! Who cares what anybody else thinks. It's none of their damn business. Just like what they do is none of mine. I just don't get the paranoia thing. Had many conversations with cops high out of my gourd. They don't know. But I bet if you're drunk having a conversation with them they're 100% aware of the situation.

Ummmm...the paranoia isn't about people finding out you're high. You can be paranoid about anything - for example, fearing that someone is going to throw you in the lake. Which they actually did, after I'd been in the bathroom for a couple hours.

Question: If the thing happens that you were paranoid about, does it mean you weren't really paranoid?

I'm thinking pot magnifies the trait in people who are normally a little paranoid.

Actually, I think that means you have super powers! And I get what you're saying, but would you have been, lets say, worried, or concerned, about that even if you HADN'T smoked? Also, I gave a bad example I guess, because I was really just referring to herb induced paranoia in general. I don't get it. Which is not to say I don't understand (even though I don't ), I mean I don't experience it and that makes it hard to relate to, I guess.

see? it was not the weed!

But you're right, being paranoid can just be a feeling, unrelated specifically to getting caught being high. The paranoia just is your normal insecurities heightened because of the weed.

I did not notice my paranoia when I smoked constantly, but it was there, as I was significantly less social.

yes, it makes you more sensitive, so if you are a little insecure it makes you more insecure, sometimes to the point of paranoia

Right now i'm paranoid about who could be reading this thread.

Almost every person I know smokes pot, actually more and more of them are using vaporizers these days.

It's just not *my* thing though. Not a fan.

That´s a very healthy option. But they are so damn expensive...the good ones cost at least 450 dollars. Anything cheaper than that is usually rubbish.

For sure. With most people cannabis simply magnifies the thoughts, emotions and physical sensations that are already there.

There are differences in effects between indicas and sativas tho'.

Congrats! Get the good shit next time...it doesn't burn the throat as much.

I also suggest making brownies.

The good ol´days of sativa seem to be over though, at least here, because indica grows faster and yields more quantity when harvested...and then people sit in the corner, totally stoned and lethargic and wonder why they feel like shit. The energizing, euphoria inducing and uplifting pure sativas are hard to get. What you get these days, if you´re lucky, is a blend or genetic mix of sativa and indica.

No wonder that some people lose their ambitions. Those plants not only make you lazy, they even LOOK lazy compared to an elegant, sleek and sexy and athletic looking original sativa brand.

But, living where you live, you probably don´t have to worry about getting pure, unmanipulated sativa herb.

Actually, you do. These days most plants are cross breeds of a sativa and an indica and it's hard to say which is which anymore. One plant is more sativa dominant than the other. If you want to know it's best to ask when you buy. Personally I prefer a fine good old fashioned white widow. A real one is mainly sativa dominated, giving the energy and euphoria, but it also has a relaxed indica touch to it.

It's true that indica grows faster and many growers therefore prefer it or mix their sativas with an indica so it grows faster, but it's a bit too much to say that it is all because of the indica that some people get totally lethergic and stoned. A lot of new plants these days are called "haze" and are a hyped up sativa branch, yet when you smoke a lot of that shit you will not only risk paranoia and such but also crash like a motherfucker. It depends on the sort of breeds that were used and their THC/CBD ratio, but also on how much tobacco you use, how much you already smoked, what you had to eat and drink and most of all, your pysical and mental condition at the time of smoking. When you feel fucked up, stressed out, angry, sad or whatever, it doesn't matter whether you smoke an indica or a sativa. Neither one of them will make you feel any better, but rather worse.

It's all relative.
