Think I need to stop smoking weed

Ohhh.. so you aren't actually taking bong hits... just makeshift pipe hits.

Still 10-20 hits is a lot, sounds like you already got that message though. Just take your time.
 
I'm an older head, I do and a bong hit in the morning with my coffee and one in the evening. I smoke about a quarter give or take an eighth a month. I smoke only fire so if I did multiple bong hits I wouldn't be functional lol.

There's so much subtlety and variance in weed. It isn't about being in a stupor, or it doesn't have to be.
 
It has no effect on your health whatsoever.
You are probably just smoking more than you should for how few times youve smoked.
 
I think u smoking some weird shit or u got like something in you that reacts oddly to weed, I dunno.

I smrrrr then play guitar, shit is sooooo awesome.
 
10 - 20 rips? Jesus man, settle down!

Usually after, say, a maximum of 3 cones in a short period of time you're as "high" as you're going to get. Just like booze, too much will make you feel bad.
 
Wearing off and this is the best it's felt. Feels a lot more normal, less psychoactive. Might take a break from it for a while give it a gentle go in the future.

Thanks for the help GAF.
 
Please smoke less next time, dude. There's no need to smoke that much unless you're a heavyweight. Also, depending on where you are, try to get something with a high cbd to thc ratio. I think OG Kush is one of those strains, but you're better off reseearching it yourself.
 
Sounds like you might be smoking Sativa tbh.

I always get a little bit of anxiety and doubt for about 5 minutes every time I have a cone of sativa while with indica the calming effects will kind of creep up on me.

I always attributed it to the body/mind kind of panicking about the sudden rush of energy. I'm no scientist though.

hm, what I mean is 10 individual occasions I guess, so at least a five hour gap between them.



Previous times it was closer to 20 rips with it spun with tobacco, but the past two times it's just been gage, only refilling the apple bong about four times.

So, to get this straight, you are smoking what I call "dirty bowls", I.e. weed and tobacco mixed? Yeah, that shit will fuck you up. Here in America (please correct me about other countries, worldly GAFers) we are typically about weed only smoking, so try that?
 
I've been smoking for over 10 years now and all I ever do is 1-2 hits from a small pipe. Yea I'd say you are smoking too much....

if I smoke too much nowadays I tend to think about death a lot....

Yep, roommate found out he was because of heavy pot use. Kinda terrifying when he starts telling you he thinks hes god and the other roommate is the devil. Yep.

I've done it like 10 times in total, mostly in the past couple of weekends and like half of the time I've had pretty strong trips. I'm talking about really lagged perceptions, paranoia, auditory and some minor visual illusions, bizarre thoughts, jerky movements and some degree of cognitive impairment. I've only really started because weed is supposedly a lot safer than alcohol, particularly when binging.

Could this frequent use be affecting my health harshly and do any other GAFers experience these effects?

I'm in one of these phases atm and it's freaking me out a bit.

OMG a veteran!

you are not a 'frequent user' but it sounds like you are shit at it. never do it again because it sounds like it's triggering mental issues you might have.
 
Yea. I quit it completely last year. I was never a big smoker to
Begin with but I'd either get really paranoid or really lethargic. Hate the feeling of both.
 
Wait what, 10 - 20 bong rips.

I'm a heavy ass smoker and even I'm good after a couple hits. Less if I sprinkle some dap in the bowl.
 
Yes, OP. If you have a predisposition to mental health diseases weed could trigger your latent condition. Any mental health issues in your family? Depression, OCD, Bi-Polar, Schizophrenia?

Are you smoking different shit every time? How strong is it according to the people you've smoked it with? How are you smoking it? Do you smoke anything else and how does that effect you? I mean, weed does a lot of these things by nature depending on what exactly that shit is and how much you intake. The most important things is watch how you smoke to learn how to get exactly where you like to be at, and learn your comfort zones for getting high.

I mean, I've been there. I've been smoking for something like seven years and basically it's had profoundly different effects on me over the years depending on my mental state and diet, my tolerance, what exactly I was smoking and how strong it was, etc. At one point just out of high school I was taking anxiety medications, my diet was shit, and my work was absolutely brutal. Smoking even shit mids would put me in a fucking tranced, uncomfortable state. Uncomfortable because I wouldn't feel in total control of myself or my perceptions, just like a mild trip like you're describing, and that's usually not what I'm trying to get out of a high. When I first started smoking, though (the first couple of dozen times) I was pretty healthy, young, and smoking loads of headies wouldn't faze me, it'd just give me a really fun high. Right now I can smoke a couple of bowls of headies to get super duper blazed or just half a bowl to get high, I've got a fair tolerance but I'm just comfortable with the high now and I know when to engage in it and when not to. I'd argue that there isn't significant risk to smoking marijuana on the regular other than what it can do to your mental state if you aren't aware and adult with it.

edit: damn, I probably should have read the thread first, could have saved myself some time.

yo man you sound like you like yourself some weed if you're smoking that damn much so go out to a decent shop if you can find one nearby on google maps and pick up a nice piece and for fucks sake 10-20 bong hits? settle down or space it out and don't be afraid to drop it if you ever feel too uncomfortable about it because your high can change over time in accordance with your life and body. are those effects you're describing something you don't like or just something you're curious about? because if it's the latter I'd say see if there's anything at all you might feel comfortable or even enjoy doing while in that state. For me it was things like reading, Wipeout HD, repetitious shit like cleaning or lawn work, sharing the experience with cool and understanding people etc.

I wasn't claiming to be a veteran, so I'm not sure where that sarcastic quip came from. So these aren't common symptoms of smoking weed?

It tends to only manifest itself this way if I smoke alone. I'm only smoking with mates that are new to it as well, so I don't know how strong the stuff we've had is. It smells really, really, really strong though. Had to triple bag it so it didn't stink out my cupboard.

Don't know of any family members suffering from schizophrenia, but could it be an interaction with my 150mg sertraline?
 
Ten bong hits is probably around the same as taking 2-3 dabs....and that shit blows me away. Been smoking for 20 years now. I can probably count the days I've missed blazing on one hand in that 20 years. Your smoking too much for a lightweight.
