Lately I haven't been enjoying smoking as much as I should.

So lately every time I smoke I have been getting hit with the negative side effects pretty hard. Really cotton mouth, nasal congestion, and just overall anxiety. Also aware of my my rapidly beating heart. Anybody know what I mean? How did you conquer it?

i had a problem with this, so every time i smoked i would drink alchol, so u can do that or only smoke when drinking or get on anxiety meds,


thats what i did, and im good to go,


if u have anxiety even when not smoking then get on some anxiety meds, i take lexapro works wonders

Unfortunately for me alcohol and cannabis makes me puke almost every time. It sucks. Anybody else have problems combining alcohol and weed?

If you're smoking crap weed something better might do. But if you're smoking good weed and happen to have a strong Sativa, switch to an Indica. That's the best answer I've got.

Thanks for the replies. I had the same issue towards the beginning of the summer, stopped smoking for 3 months in order to find a job, and figured when I stared back up my problems would be gone and it would be like the first time again, but not so. I think anxiety meds might be the answer.

meds should only be a last resort man. they're a short term solution for a life long problem. life is hard and sometimes it's perfectly logical to be anxious - but you're also perfectly capable of overcoming it on your own. and if you can do it on your own then why walk with a crutch?

I just made a thread today about overcoming panic attacks when you're smoking so as to calm down and enjoy it more, I suggest you check it out. it all comes down to diverting your attention away from the negative/draining and on to something positive/energizing.

as for the kottonmouth, keep a drink with you when you smoke as well as some snacks that have a high water content like fruit (melon, pineapple, grapes, etc). take smaller hits.

nasal congestion I don't know. I drink herbal tea or hot apple cider when I'm sick and that usually helps me hack up the phlegm.

and the heartbeat... I used to notice it when I first started smoking. just tell yourself that you can't overdose, that the chances of you having a heart attack from being too high are pretty much nonexistant, and just sit down and meditate for a few minutes.

good luck and please give the natural way of life another shot before you allow mr pharma to bait and hook you like a trout

Been smokin and drinking since 15 45 now aint got a problem in the world first thing you do is get a bottle of bartons vodka smoke something good and hold on wake up tommorow and do it again after 30 years youll be fine that advice will cost you money from a real doc so any contributions to my account will be graetly appreciated

Worst advice iv ever seen ^

Switch to an Indica.

As said take a break or get hold of some good gear.

About a year ago I went through a really bad phase where just one toke would make me throw up. Was terrible and thought I could no longer smoke again. Good 6 month break and move onto something a bit better deffinately helped and now I can smoke infinately more than ever before.

I get cotton mouth like a mofo, but I just take it as it comes and recognize it as a side effect of smoking.

Smoke better weed?

I don't smoke mids. Just the good shit. Mids makes my head race and doesn't help me with anything but forgetting where my keys are..
