You don't have to smoke it to get high from marijuana. You can vaporize it, or cook with it. Both are better ways than smoking. If you check Erowid, and do a little bit of poking around you should come across plenty of information for both.

i agree

brownies are good

Don't worry. Be happy. :)

I tried it, and hated it. I'm over with it, and there are better things for me to do. The only way for you to know what YOU want is to try it. I'd say go for it. Just don't let it become a problem.

go for it, you only live once

Go for it, man. Personally, it's something that relaxes me and gets my creative juices flowing -- I write/compose songs under the influence, and I really like the way they come out.

However, do think about the repercussions: do you have a drug test coming up? After your first smoke, it'll take about a week of heavy water consumption to flush the THC from your system.

But if you don't have a drug test coming up and you can't think of a reason not to, I'd say go for it and enjoy the experience.

As for the addiction thing, the drug itself is not addictive -- the experience is. Being high/stoned/baked/lit is something I love the feeling of, and I think that's what most people are addicted to. It's not a physical thing -- I'm a rather heavy smoker, and I've gone cold turkey for a couple weeks; the first few days were hard because it was weird being sober all the time, but afterwards I went back to my normal routine.

Most importantly, if you decide to pick it up as something to do recreationally, BE CAREFUL, and never let it get ahead of your priorities and responsibilities.

Happy smoking ^_^

Don't touch it man.

Well we can't leave things there, so here's what I think.

It's great. Have a smoke. As has been said, take it slowly - if you don't think it's doing anything, then don't finish the whole joint in desperation. Give it time, build up to the feeling. If you go too far too soon you might decide you want to stop, but the feeling will continue.
Also, do not have your first smoke when you're drunk. A recipe for disaster.

Have fun!

Prince. Go for it. You only live once. If you think it sucks at least you'll know.

Pot cant hurt......but i dont do it anymore...personal choice.

So if you are curious.give it a try....if not.....oh well!

Do it! Its not that big of a deal. I have friends that don't drink but will smoke the green. My philosophy: Don't knock it until you try it.

*Real Advice*
you gotta trust the ppl givin u the stuff. make sure it looks decent and isnt crap with like steams and seeds in it.

as long as u are comfortable about the situation take your time and do what u want.


NOTE: no one has died from a "pot overdose" ever.

I'm 18 myself and have never tried, nor had any desire to try it.
I'm a really laid back person and I've never felt a reason to.. though I had many friends who smoked.. and it didn't do them any good.I even became distant with a few friends who started smoking and got into a different crowd.

But, then again, we were in highschool.

My advise would be, if you really have a desire to try it, go ahead. At your age I dont see the harm if its something you would regret not doing later on in life.

either way, good luck.

i don't believe you smoke. what a bunch of wrong information. Smoking pot = LESS tar than cigarettes, not more.

Marijuana is not physically addictive.

i don't know where you got your info from, but it wasn't from smoking pot. (i smell government bs information)

I want to smoke, but my two best friends say to just stick with alcohol.

However, I have two good friends who do smoke pot. My problem is, I don't know how to ask them. Plus, I'd feel bad leaving my homies out of it.

It' weird cause i'd never thought about doing it before, but I stumbled upon the "shroomin" thread and one thing lead to another and i've been reading anything and everything about Pot.

Bah, damn you Pink Floyd. Look what you've done to me. I could have gone through life like one of the good ol' boys, drinkin alcohol and acting like a frat boy. If only I could convince my buds (no pun intended) that alcohol is a lot more damaging to your health and all this drug war crap is just propoganda.

Now, I can't imagine going through life without ever visiting the dark side of the moon.

Curiosity killed the cat.

I wouldnt try it, im afraid id like it.

348Dav: u cant convince some one they have to decide to try it for themselves just try it if you have the chance and offer it to your buddies, if they wanna try it they'll try it.

When I was 20 I tried it out of curiosity!! Wanted to know what was so great about it!! I did it twice and did not think it was all that!! I never did it again however I had to try it to feed my curiosity!! I have a I will try anyhthing once with very few exceptions but never do anything because of being pressured!! let us know how your experience goes!!

..

eh it's no big deal man, and if you like it too much it can lead to a lot of problems, i wouldn't risk it

Give it a try. It's not a big deal at all. Don't worry about it... Smoking one joint doesn't change anything - you'll still have all the options open to you afterwards, and this time you can make an informed decision.

Yeah, but think about it this way: your best friends aren't living your life. It's your own life to lead, you have your own choices to make, your own experiences to have.

And as far as approaching your two pot-smoking buddies, it's easy: "Dude do you have any smoke?" 95% of potsmokers are generous and always open to a new person in the smoking circle. :)

I'm with TaLoN here, man. You sound like a pamphlet handed out in high schools to people who don't really know the effects of pot and will believe what authorities tell them because they're "authorities".

http://www.norml.org plz.

give it a try... you never know... you may end up loving it... or hating it... but you'll never know until you try...

weed sucks its a hour high. Do ecstasy much better.

Thats the most horrible logic I have ever heard. I could say this:

Ecstasy sucks its a 4 hour high. Do heroin much better.

I just came and read thru this thread again, I probably shouldnt have.

You are smoking garbage then if your only high for 1 hour.

I have many leads for Pot, Hash & Weed/Honey Oil

And this stuff will knock you on your ass, It's good cause you only need to smoke a little and your good for about 3 hours or so.

Don't try Ecstacy...It's a dirty drug...Any drug that is Man made is Destructive.

Marijuana is Natuaral it grow's from the ground, That is not destructive unless you lose control of your use of it...But if that happens then you shouldn't be smoking it.

The reason why I only get high off weed for an hour is because I've been smoking that shit for years and I developed an immunity towards it.

Second, You think marijuana is always 100% "natural"? I know friends that grow and trust me, that shit they grow isint natural. They spray Lysol,windex and other chemicals in it to give it that extra "kick".

Lastly, I personally don't do ecstacy like I do with weed. It's not like I take it 5 times a day, I take it when I'm at a party or when I'm out not when I'm just chilling with friends.

I used to smoke, but quit more than a year ago. I started to get weird tense feelings. This was after smoking it for 6-7 years with no problems. I have friends that do it. Some do it very occasionally, some start freaking out when they are getting close to running out.

With people you trust is good advice. Make sure they aren't idiots, like people who make drug deals at busy gas stations. Most people I know who got in trouble for it got in trouble because they were being dumb. Find a safe place to smoke it, as in, not driving down the road where you could kill someone or get pulled over.

I think people who smoke it by themselves may be overdoing it. If you need to smoke it to go to sleep, as some people I know do, that is probably not good.

yea

try it out, it is not harmful, you have no idea if you will like it or not unless you try

The only "withdrawl" Ive ever experienced is when Im really really bored.... Weed can make that down time fun. Other then that, I could stop at any point, no regrets, no problems. Unless your mentaly weak....You will be able to stop whenever you want as well.

First of all... you have lived this long without it... you have missed nothing.... Well something ..... something addictive

If you have no need ... then the hell with it.

Where you live it is illegal, and could cost you your job and reputation... why bother. Just have a beer and relax without the hassles of illegal drugs.

I say go for it, its fun. May I also suggest doing something sexual during it, masturbation is fine =P

Opinion: Pot = Bad.

I've never tried it, but I know afew friends who have tried it and have only used it for experimentation and/or rare/special occasions. However, for every one person who does it rarely, there's another one that does it regularly and another two who walk around my town shirtless with a joint in their mouth. That's an exaggeration, but it's not too far off. If ya do it, just be willing to accept your actions, and hopefully you won't do it often.

Hydro is the best shit...IMO anyways, And what gives Hydro that extra kick that you don't get from outdoor...I may be wrong, But the heat from the Hydroponic Lights...I am pretty sure that when the lights heat up the weed it activates something in the THC that makes it Potent...Again I may be wrong, I am not a grower...Just a smoker.

But that's what I have heard.

As another poster said, research:

http://www.erowid.org/plants/cannabis/cannabis.shtml

More information than you ever thought existed about a single plant.

Go for it, theres alot of shit out there that you're probably not supposed to do that you'll do anyways, add this to the list :D
Basically you're never gonna get a straight answer until you give it a go yourself, for me personally its a fun thing to do every so often when im at the club or somethin and i dont wanna drink. youre not gonna get the reefer madness and you're dick isn't gonna fall off. try it and decide yourself.

Save up your money and find some nice people to go to Amsterdam with. Well worth it; I've never felt more relaxed about the 'legal worries' than I did there. It was the only time I ever carried it on me too.

It's.......just.......weed
