mj has no effect on me, this relatively common?

[linky]

Has anyone heard of this? I have tried smoking mj a dozen or two times in my life and the only thing it ever did was make me sleepy or nothing at all, never got a high from it. I am a caregiver now and i have not tried anything I have grown as I just didn't/don't have much interest in trying it again. I am sure the stuff I tried in the past was junk weed (remember it having a lot of seeds and stems in the bag, this was 10-15 years ago). Maybe I will try some of the good stuff I am growing now and see if that does anything to me. Little paranoid to try though, don't like feeling all fucked up and out of control, get paranoid.. even with alcohol, I will drink to get a buzz but that is it, hate being drunk/wasted feeling.

Have you tried snorting it.

Just kidding, I have heard of people using coke more than once before they got high.
Booze makes me anything but paranoid. (until the next day that is)
I get that you don`t like to feel out of control so maybe just try a small hit of your own stuff
and see what happens. If you start to feel weird laugh it off. It will not last long and you will
be 199% fine.

Personally I always found weed much the same. I've always thought of it as good money wasted for a bad time. I'm sure more than 1/2 the people I know smoke. Don't bother me a bit but it's always been a mystery as to what the big attraction is. Currently exploring the medical possibilities and wondering if it is still useless.

I spent a childhood summer smoking incredible exotic offerings (like Thai Stick actually fro Thailand) and never once catching a buzz.. I seriously thought getting high meant passing the fire stick around with your friends and getting goofy. Then one day I smoked some home grown the kid said would probably just make my throat sore, and it knocked me off my socks.. yes, lots of people have to smoke several times before something happens.. don't know why, just know you're not the only one. One of these days it WILL hit you... and you will be like 'oh, gee.. ok.. I get it now'.

I wonder if its like injections.
Meaning the first inoculation I give my dog is not as likley to cause a reaction
as the next one. Something about the first making antibodys and the next time
the antibodies get their panties in a bunch. I really dont understand it but people who do
have tried to explain it to me and that was the best I could do to explain, lol

 

[linky]

I guess I will give it a whirl again with some of my home grown, my gf has been wanting me to smoke with her anyway.. she will like that.. hope it works for me, just don't want it to put me over the edge Will try a little bit I suppose

I'm willing to bet theres a few of these new strains of "diggity dank" out there now a days that will get you buzzed.
But I also think in some cases some peoples expectations of what they expect pot to do are a little too high. Its only a plant after all. Its not going to produce the soaring ( then dropping) high of cocaine. Its not an equal to the warm fuzzy feeling of an Oxycontin 80, its only weed, and it has its limitations on what it can do. Remember, they're trying all over the country to legalize the stuff with the argument that it is a basically " harmless" drug.

You aren't alone... I get no "high" from mj either. But that isn't to say that I get no benefit from it. It helps me relax and keeps my anxiety in check.

I'm told that some people take awhile to pop their cherry, so to speak. When they finally get high, the sensation comes around easier the next time. For me, I'm not holding my breath

ok first off guys... ur making weed out to be something that its not.. like ur convinced the shit is like heroin and ull get so fucked up that ur going to die or do something crazy f0r that next hit..

wen u smoke a cig do u get high? not really... u get ur fix... wen u smoke weed.. u get high if its good weed..

weed isnt like other drugs.. it affects your thinking but doesnt get you so intoxicated that u cannot do anything..

put it this way.. ive drivin stoned on bud.. 1000s of times no 1 accident or pull over..

drove 2 times on alcohol .. ended up in hospital and a dui..

never drank again..

i smoke everyday... and i am a happier more creative interested in more than just stupid materialistic shit..

i smoke to control anxiety .. naseua .. and for sleep.. .

look at what weed actually does to ur brain!

It affects people in different ways. Alchohol is a good example. I'm in a country where people binge drink, they deliberately go out of their way to drink regularly and in large quantities. I know what its like to be drunk, and while you can have a decent time with some good friends etc, for the most part I don't like how alchohol makes me feel. I certainly don't see the attraction of spinning rooms, feeling sick and not to mention hangovers.

Weed on the other hand, tweaks your state of mind. You don't change who you are, unlike what happens with drink. If anything, you become truer to yourself. I use weed as a tool, a way of tweaking my consciousness so that I can be creative, enjoy music, and perhaps most useful, its possible to sit and do nothing when you are stoned, making it ideal for boredom. Different weeds generate different effects, and thats why over time you come up with your own favourites, or smoking a different type to stimulate a different aspect of yourself ... deep thinking ... problem solving ... relaxation ... socialising ...

Its a beautiful thing, and discovering what it does/means to you is a very personal journey of self discovery.

i personally got totally smashed the first time i smoked weed, tho to be fair i did smoke a shitload. but i have mates who had no effect at all on even up to the first dozen or so times, so yeah, probly not as rare as all that. if you do decide to try it again, i hope you enjoy it

 

[dank smoker420]

when i first smoked i didnt get high. maybe its some booboo weed. of you just think your not high. you got sleepy so it did have some effect on you. weed is alot different your first time smoking it or your first couple times smoking it compared to the "stoners" you think off. your first couple times you get alot of energy since it is new and unusual than when you get used to it it just relaxes you more and your body is more used to the thc and everything.

The first time I smoked weed I was wasted, slumped on a couch and floaty headie, lol.

One of my pet hates though is those who are walking stereotypes - not really stoners, but the sort of people who start giggling etc before they've even finished their first draw etc. Novelty stoners I call em, living up to stereotypes. You know that way, when you can be embarassed for someone else?

Ok some weed will make you funny as fook, but half the stuff I smoke is normally heavyyyyy, where you'd probably laugh at a joke if your body still had the ability to do so, LOL.

You should try weed thats both sativa dominant and indica dominant, and then the difference between a cerebral head high versus physical stone becomes much clearer. Indica is the great one for me where I like to be couch locked, and lose a lot of the notion of time. Sativa is great for uplifting, where you want the altered state but don't want to feel like your body weighs 4 times as much.
