[QUOTE=sltungle;29812217]Or, you know, maybe that's because you're not pre-disposed towards it.

That's one of the main worries with marijuana. That it might not necessarily CAUSE mental problems, but it may cause pre-existing, 'dormant' conditions to manifest themselves. If I am pre-disposed to schizophrenia I'd fucking rather it stayed dormant forever.[/QUOTE]

Honestly I was just kidding lol
I've tried it 3 times, and my advice to you is to not do it unless you're very curious as to what its like.

I am very, very curious as to what it's like, but I'm not willing to risk my sanity over it.

The effects depend on how many percents of the marijuana youre smoking, eating or whatever is sativa and how many percents of it is indica.

It's kind of like booze and beer, The kind of do the same thing but they're still different.

Sativa gets you high,
Indica gets you stoned.

Generally when you buy marijuana you don't really get the "good stuff" if you don't have contacts, This is happening for obvious reasons, I don't think i should even explain this. Since its illegal almost everywhere it creates a good business. The buds are considered as the good stuff since they got the most THC which is the substance which actually gets you high, Without it it's just good tasting and smelling tobacco which gets you in same trouble as if you'd smoke marijuana for no reason of course. Knaster obviously is legal, You should be able to buy it from your local tobacco shop. For a first timer this doesn't really matter as long as it's not knaster(THC free weed as already explained), knaster is sometimes used for scamming. You can semi effectively determine the quality by the smell, The stronger smell of what some would consider "sweet lemon" the more likely it's good. Same goes for the taste and look, as it's not rare that the buds have been sprayed with varnish for extra weight, this also gives the weed a bitter taste. It should be self explanatory that its not healthy to inhale the burning varnish fumes. Knaster instead smells like tea even though its taste is similiar to marijuanas.

If you grow your own, You get what you grow the way you grow it. So you don't need to worry about anything else than the law related risks depending on your location.
I don't really know much if anything about it other than i've heard, And that's basically that you need to maintain a certain tempeature for the plant, the plant needs to get certain amount of light, if you get greedy and start harvest before its ready it affects the outcome, the plant dies after it has produced the weed, If you don't harvest some areas(bottom leafs) of the plant it cant grow as much buds as it could and such.

Anyway, to the point.
One can't accurately describe how doing it feels, But i'll do my best.

You'll feel a bit light headed, Very positive, most likely hungry, stress free, generally lazy and if you have any pains, they'll be gone. Depending on what you're smoking you might lose some motorskills, get lost in your own thoughts or have some other effects, You know -like if you were drunk. But it's not as much like alcohol, You are able to restrain yourself to do things completely normally if you want to.

I personally don't smoke marijuana that much, So i'm not really an expert on this field. generally not at all but i did use it as a replacement for the terrible painkillers i was suppose to take after my service ended.

I don't believe that marijuana can drive people mentally unstable, You may get lost into your own thoughts but if you start to lose it, then atleast in my own opinion you were insane before lightning that joint. It's not like magic mushrooms, You're not forced into a trip, And you don't see hallucinations. If you get lost into your thoughts you're extremely likely to be only like "woah... never thought of that" For that part i find it quite funny how this stuff is illegal.

The difference is like day and night.
"OH GOD THE WALLS ARE EATING THE LIGHT!!1 NOOO~!" vs "Damn these popcorns taste salty, Lol, i have no idea what this movie's about!"

However, I don't think one should take it as a way of life. You know like the obvious pot smoker you've seen sliding past you with pink eyes and that rasta hat, but it's definetly something everyone should try at somepoint of their life.

Marijuana is a much more enjoyable altered state than alcohol is in my opinion. But it really depends on the situation. Marijuana is not some psychedelic LSD alternative. I use to think it was somewhat similar, but no, I've tried both and its not even close. It's unique and relaxing, and at the same time allows me to be pretty damn creative. Not only that, but it doesn't last all day like drinking alcohol. You can smoke at noon and be sober by 3pm, assuming you aren't a newbie. It's a pretty fun drug. I smoked marijuana the entire semester at college and got straight A's, while that proves nothing, it does prove that you can function fine under the influence of it. Try doing that piss drunk.
