I would like to try weed?

Question

So, I hear everyone talking about it and stuff and I want to see how it effects me and if I like it. I want to prove to everyone that I can live a normal life, and still smoke weed every now and then. My brainwashed family thinks that because you smoke weed, you can't have good relationships, a job, and a good life, but that's only for the HARD drugs like cocaine, heroin, meth etc. I would like to prove them wrong, I get straight As, I aced my finals, I am studying a lot of languages very hard on my own, and every single adult I meet thinks I'm mature. I just want to see what being high feels like, and if it really is SOOOOOOOOO bad like John McCain thinks. But the problem is, I don't want anyone to find out, cause if they do, my brainwashed family will think less of me, and I might have a drug test comign up for a summer job. Any suggestions/help?

Answer 1

The thing is we live in a society that frowns on illegal drugs.  You said it yourself you have a drug test coming up for a possible summer job.  Until the United States legalizes pot (which will probably not be in our lifetime) then you will be looked down on.  Sad to say but you're gonna have a difficult time getting a professional job (or any job for that matter) if you get hooked on mary j.  I work at a hotel and as soon as a drug test isn't passed we cant hire that person even for menial entry level jobs like banquet servers, dishwashers, bellperson, etc...  My advice: don't start doing it and if you have stop.  You can catch a buzz by other means, go skateboarding or skydiving or something you know?  Good luck to you! :)

Answer 2

wait until you get your summer job, depending on where you work there will be someone who uses.  I do warn you that it is bad for your health, but with moderation and control it's not that bad, just illegal.

Answer 3

try salvia, its legal. buy it at any smoke shop, unless you live in one of the 6 states where its illegal.

and weed really is a gateway drug TO the hard drugs!

i've been there! even if you don't want to try the other drugs, if you are with friends that are doing them, you will too!

and they are fun in moderation!!

have fun, be safe and good luck!!

Answer 4

Your right pot doesnt make you act anything like you brainwashed family thinks! Never listen to people that are against marijuana for the same old stupid reasons after all its a naturally grown plant that God made. Im 99% sure you will enjoy being high on marijuana. As for the drug test just stop smoking a couple weeks before you have to take it (assuming you only do it once in a while). Or if its last minute drink alot of water the day before and of the drug test and take some vitamins. But dont drink to the point of water intoxication! Just dont tell your family about you use and dont be around them while stoned outa your mind. If your eyes are red use some visine. Peace

Answer 5

my first time trying weed i was in grade 11, and from what I've heard and experienced most people don't get high the first time they try weed. my parents are the same way if they found out i smoke weed I'd be out of my house before i could say sorry. so only smoke it with people you trust and don't' buy it off of someone you don't' know because for someone who hasn't smoked pot before you probably wouldn't be able to tell if it is laced, and laced weed gives you a bad trip and may ruin it forever for you. my best advice though is just make sure you smoke it with someone you trust.

Answer 6

just try it and not tell anyone. i don't know how soon your drug test is, but if it's really soon, wait to try pot until after you take it.

Answer 7

It's really not that bad, most people have been brainwashed to think it is...

It doesnt really do that much for me, personally, but it is cool...

but hun, don't do it to prove yourself. do it because you want to experiment haha :]

Answer 8

just chill in ur room wit a bunch of snack and if u have a test this is all u need to no to pass it .ok, go to ur local wal mart and buy a box of pecton, its this stuff they use to make jellys and jams,also buy a bottle of orange juice.mix the pecton and the oj up in a blender until dissolved.dribnk this liquid and wait a half hour-45 minutes.after this drink a lot of water and then do ur test. the oj/pecton coats ur stomach and ur bladder effectively filtering anything but water from getting through.u should do this like an 45 minutes or an hour before ur test.also,this makes ur pee clearish orangish colored ,thats what the oj is for, to give it color.

Answer 9

ha ha, it is funny that you care what john mccain thinks about anything.

pretty much everyone smokes weed.  it's not a big deal at all.

Answer 10

weed affects how quickly you react to things. even though it's not addictive, if you like it you'll go back for more. i've known a few very good students in my school who started smoking recently. they thought they could maintain their grades and keep it on the low, but their grades have been dropping and they can't help but think about weed all the time.

i had a boyfriend who smoked all the time and when we broke up, he told me he loved being with me because he didn't need to smoke to get high. he was high on life with me. corny, but coming from him, it was something big.

anyway, i think you should reconsider smoking. it's peer pressure. and you MIGHT have a summer job soon. another reason not to do it.

Answer 11

its really fun and the high is good, not to mellow, not to  eccentric unless you smoke and pop and x pill thats fun too

enjoy

Answer 12

I don't know how old you are but you sound like a responsible teenager. Still, don't blow your chances by failing a drug test, (or is that passing it?). Wait until later to try pot and I suggest you smoke it with a trusted friend. If you like it and it suits you I don't think there's anything wrong with having the odd puff. I'd keep it to a minimum while studying though because it can take your headspace to different levels and makes it difficult  to concentrate. Just be responsible and you too can live a normal life and enjoy a smoke now and then.

Answer 13

Wait until you took the drug test. No one will find out if you don't tell them, or do it around them. I am doing this too, and it's true, you can still live a productive life. I get all A's too, never get in trouble, still get done what I need to get done. It's all propoganda, and weed is great!

Answer 14

If you are going to have a drug test I would hold off on trying the weed. Truly its no big thing and YES you can lead a "normal" life. I do suggest that when you do try it  make sure you have some good friends around because it does effect everyone differently and you are no exception... You sound like a very smart person .and  your getting straight A's ....well sweetie your not smoking the weed are ya now?  It does and will at some point effect your memory.... Don't be in a hurry... get high on life and enjoy it to its fullest....... count your blessings with your family.

Answer 15

you know...I would usually tell someone asking this question to just go ahead and try it because its nothing. If you just try it then it probably wont hurt you but im sitting by my computer high as h**l right now and i cant stop.  Be careful

Answer 16

I go to a very "smart" school and get very decent grades (never had anything below a 3.33) and I smoke pot. As long as it doesn't become a habit its perfectly fine. Come on, once in a while to relax? I completely agree with your point, you CAN have a normal life and still smoke. I would suggest holding off if there is any chance of a drug test, but once your in the clear go for it!

Answer 17

pot could make you lose your motivation so so if start smoking heavy be careful cause you may not notice drugs can be cool nothing special i know Ive done plenty weed cocaine Oxycontin any other pill you can think of but I'm a nineteen year old who works 60 plus hours a week with engineers and ask any one in my life and they would tell you I'm a very responsible young man ha i am and drugs aren't going to change that in me i don't know about you but drugs don't kill people people kill people all those stuck up people think drugs are the root of all evil

Answer 18

Take Q-Carbo if you have to take a drug test...find it at any GNC store and you will pass the drug test ... as for trying the drug it self, if you have good self control then I do not see the problem with you trying weed. Just know that if you cough - you probably will try to stay away from it...just learn how to smoke it and weed will be very pleasurable. I go to Penn State and I still maintain a 3.7 GPA. I actually don't see how marijuana is classified as a controlled substance and alcohol isn't. Marijuana is pretty much harmless. Read the facts before believing what any one says about weed.

Answer 19

You want to smoke weed and don't want anyone to know and you post it on the internet.  Hmmmm.

Well, from the way you post I think you are still a teen.  Your brain is growing and taking anything like weed during this time is detrimental to your overall health.  Wait until you are in your twenties.

Weed will make you feel really great but will scatter your thoughts and sap your ambition.  Your energy levels will slowly decline with continued use and it damages the immune system.

Enough of the bad.  There are good sides to it many for specific medical problems.  It is an excellent relaxant and pain killer.  It can help with artistic creativity.   Although it is harmful it seems to be less harmful that tobacco and alcohol

Answer 20

There is nothing wrong with smoking pot, as long as you're not the type of person who will become apathetic and lazy from it.

However, I quit smoking because it's not worth the legal trouble it can get you into.  As "stupid" as you may think the law is, it's still a law, and a record like that can hinder you from getting a good job, can prevent scholarships and loans for college, etc.

Just not worth it.
