Be high, stay high, have fun...

Well im not realy know what youre talking about.I never ever had any bad feeling after smoking a Bong,except when i had drunk Alcohol before then i sometimes feel bad and had to puke,but thats from the Beer not the Weed.
Well,you know that when you have "some % of brain illness in your DNA" they can cause some trouble when smoking Weed.When for example your Grandmother had a Brain-Illness and you smoke Weed there is high chance you get that Brain-Illness too.

As i was a young smoker of 14 or 15,a guy which was 16 smoked a Bong at me.He then got crazy,climbed up my clothes-locker and doesnt wanted to climb down again.Well we then brought him to his Home,and next Day i heard they brought him to Hospital and he ended in the "Landeskrankenhaus" which is a nice word for "Lunatic Hospital" for some Days...
He had this Brain-Illness Grandmother Problem too.

I also know People who took so many Chemical Drugs,specialy LSD/Mushrooms,when they smoke 1 Bong they get extreme Flashbacks and feel like they took a bottle of Lsd or a forest of Mushrooms..Seems to be a Girl´s Problem,cause from 3 People i know who have this Problem are all 3 Girls.

If you mean with Paranoia some strong fear from something and its realy a problem for you,then i would suggest you buy yourself some Diazepam or Bromazepam Pills on the Blackmarket for Emergency on strong Paranoia Attack.(Can be bought normaly where Heroin is sold..Train Stations,Parks..1-2 Euros per 10/6 MG).They should solve this Problem .They remove any fear feelings and also let you feel very very relaxed.

This is terrible advice...i speak from nearly three decades of experience.

+1. I speak from nearly three decades of experience of seeing what they do to others.

Not that it would of mattered most of my life as I just bought what the dealer had. I'm not even sure he knew. I do remember through life sometimes being stoned and sometimes being high. After learning what I learned, this all makes sense now.

I am going to Amsterdam this summer and I plan on getting stoned and maybe high a little. I haven't smoked much in the last 26 years my because job prevents me from smoking very often. Needless to say, a little goes a long way for me. I always thought I was lucky to be able to get stoned/high cheaper that everyone else. Take a puff or two and put it down for an hour or two. Repeat as necessary. If I get freaked out I don't know what I will do. I guess I will cross that bridge if I get there.

lol, I thought I was the only one who took a couple of puffs and then had to leave the joint well alone for a bit. Nice to know I'm not the only person lacking any kind of tolerance.

Yeah shit loads of benzo's is what really compliments the natural high of weed... Speaking from no experience, just common sense. I know it's easy to say this but If I was that worried about being paranoid I just wouldn't smoke weed. The fact that your on a forum asking about it just shows that it's already playing on your mind before you've even began to smoke anything, meaning an attack of paranoia is inevitable.

So to sum up the entire thread (for pussies): Don't drink and take your mum.

And that my learned but stoned friends is... satire. Or detournement.

Love you all. Peace love and buttplugs.

But seriously just for a moment... some of the muppet ideas here.. well you'd be compelled to take the piss wouldn't you? It's not as if I'm calling anyone a cunt? Gronin you cunt! Oh... At least I make the effort to type properly when not translating Dante's Divine Comedy into emoticons. For the youth you understand.

This post illustrates the danger of mixing hash and booze. Your experience may differ.

Give it up Nimrod.

Why in the fuck would you even think this is me? I don't play alter-ego internet games.

Guess again, genius.

Nimrod speaks the truth. I am gronin - look says so at the top of the post - though a bit envious of Nimrod's fine old Hungarian name. As for alter-egos or pseudonyms; how many here go by their real name? To have an alter-ego of a net alter-ego seems a stretch too far - even for me.

Hope you're all surviving your comparative paranoia OK. In keeping with my controversial stance, I'll say it again: if you get paranoid after smoking a nice spliff then maybe, just maybe, you shouldn't smoke? I know such a thought goes down like cold vomit here - such a broad-minded bunch. Talking of vomit; that's the effect I get from heroin. Should I stick with it or is paranoia preferable?

A bientȏt dearhearts. xx

I had a paranoia attack of sorts once, no fault of my personality or personal thoughts or any insecurity as such, but more a mix of a certain situation something that happened in a random discussion with a fellow toker in Amsterdam (wont say which ACD member triggered it lol) and not knowing what the fuck you smoke when it's puff, puff, pass in a good sized crowd on a crawl of various random gear.

Was rather funny in a way, was convinced I was being watched and photographed by someone back home as if I had no right being in Dam because of what happened a few hours earlier or the day before (never could remember the trigger time lol) !. Thought I was going to be in trouble when I got back home and nearly called the partner up to warn her!.

Funny as fuck thinking back looking over my shoulder and trying not to get spotted for 2 days and the 420 boat trip 2 years ago thinking am I being watched at every bridge. An enjoyable experience in a way lol.

I also recall last year, thought again I was having a paranoia event after watching a few horror films before leaving for Dam, was in Voyagers on the first night smoking mixes of what I'd bought in several CS's to that point and gear I was given by a leaving from Voyagers toker, I was just sat there enjoying my smoke, minding your own business as you do when by yourself and was noticing strange people walking by out of the window. Dressed as the grim reaper and with axes and swords, blood stains and all sort of fucked up shit looking sorts of people walking past in strange attire. And even what seemed like a kid with a big 12" flopping rubber dildo hanging from where his nose should be!!!. I told a fellow ACD member the next day, danny211204 and he noticed the exact same thing the next night. Seems it was some student event or something, only in Amsterdam do you get such weird shit man!!!.

Thanks for starting this thread.

I have similar paranoia so I steer clear of the strong stuff. Even the weakest truffles are too much for my mind.

Get some blue cheese and smash it in a bong, you'll be so high that you'll of forgotten about paranoia

smoking weed OPENS your longues , making you able to take 7-9 times as much air in a breath

Yes, the evidence once seemingly indicated this to be true...however, continued expeosure to impurities smoked while comsuming thc (plant matter, etc) causes irritations to lungs....which will cause over short term and long terms a shallowing of breathe, less oxygen to be absorbed and the on set of potential paranoia or panic or anxiety attacks.

This is why they use water in bongs, filters on joints and dabbing is the rage....weed in its whole doesnt open the lungs, just the best part....the thc part. All the other plant matter, papers, tabbac etc are bad

And the misconception that you get a 7-9 times increase is bolly...it is much less and really not at all....

Based on 20 years of research involving 5,115 adults, the study that yielded this stat—affiliated with the University of California, San Francisco, the National Institute on Drug Abuse, and other agencies, and published in this month’s Journal of the American Medical Association—confirmed earlier studies linking cannabis and increased lung capacity. Sounds promising. “But the size of this increase is not very big, and it’s not necessarily a sign of actually improved lung health,” cautions University of Alabama School of Medicine Associate Professor Stefan Kertesz, the study’s lead author. “The net increase is only 50 milliliters. A soda can is 350 milliliters, so we’re talking about an amount that’s one-seventh the size of a soda can.” And with further marijuana use, lung capacity declines.

i believe it is because pot can affect the heart - instigating it to beat more rapidly in some individuals. that sensation is processed by the brain as paranoia or panic. And yes calmly sitting and breathing slowly and deeply will calm the heart and slow it back to normal. I remember years ago reading a study about an increase in the incidence of Heart attacks after smoking a joint - with individuals with heart disease.
