Tired of holding your breath when smoking herb?

Here's a test for my sanity. Try this and you will see I'm not completely fucked up in the head. Try it one time - I know it's hard to let go of old ways!

I don't do everything the old school way. Sometimes new is better.

I watched a documentary on herb 3 years ago (It might have been, "The Botony of Desire." A scientist explained that THC is released into your lungs instantly and therefore you don't get any better medicated by holding your breath till your blue in the face.

I've been vaping and smoking that way for the past 3 years - All those years of just about blowing my ears out trying not to waste any of my buzz. I don't get any higher by holding it in for any length of time.

Oh George, just let it out and you will feel better!

Thought It took around three seconds for absorption before the tars outweigh the high.. So a 1.5 second inhale..1.5 exhale.

I could have also made that up, I'm kind of creative

That's my understanding too, that there's a optimum window for absorption, definitely not worth holding your breath till you're blue tho . . . unless you're a smurf
watching the thread till a med-head comes in

When I hold my breath it cuts of the oxygen going to my brain.. and makes my weed better. I like when weed almost makes me pass out.

When I toke I usually hold it in for a few seconds then end up coughing for a few minutes.

Anyone else going to coughing fits so hard they puke, while smoking erb?

No......
But some people are more prone to that, its not unheard of. Coughing can activate those reflexes, happens often in "whooping cough" patients

Makes sense to me, tobacco smokers don't hold it in too long & the nicotine seems to work just fine. A few varieties of cannabis I've grown dictate how long you hold it in, not you. Lungbuster X Expandoweed=exhale NOW or die trying. :mrgreen:

I love coughing to the point of getting a major head rush. I'm not talking about the kind of head rush a person gets when buzzed and stands up...
Time slows and my brain feels a little like the times I did poppers "amyl nitrate" in the Navy gotten from one of the ship's medics.

I feel A LOT more stoned when i hold a dab in shit even for just 10 seconds than if i blow it out straight away. And i can easily hold my breath for 1 min under water several tmes snorkeling.

I've read that if you don't inhale, but rather toke an big cloud and blow it into a syringe and inject yourself with the smoke, you get high as fuck.
