Specifically, were you drinking any amount of alcohol when you first tried it?

First time I smoked was the summer before freshmen year. I thought I was the shit and immediately ran upstairs to tell my buddies on Xbox Live.

I was 15, maybe 16. Summer after freshman year. Was worried about going home with red eyes afterward, so I took a Benadryl and washed it down with a single warm natty lite. Good times.

Late blooming ... tried it in high school, but didn't really take interest in it until my 3rd year of university. Figured I had this degree thing on lock down, and it was time to put the brain on cruise control.

No joke, New Year's resolution that year was to smoke more weed. Only resolution I have ever kept.

Halloween Freshman year haha. Being high and being able to grab all the candy you want is a bad combo. I'm a junior now for reference.

First time I smoked weed I was on oxy. My friends told me it would be really cool. I got absolutely retarded high. It was gnarly. I didn't do that again for months after because it was so fucking intense. 6/10 might recommend though.

opiates + weed feels reeeally weird to me, and I typically love both separately. there's something weird about the combo


My first time was just me and some jabroni smoking straight reggie in the woods for like 2 hrs, that's what it took to get us high

Freshman year of Uni. Hit 3 bowls from a bong then went back to my room and spent 3 hours sitting on my bed just fucking amazed at everything around me was moving and living their own lives. I then passed out and failed a test the next day.

Yeah for sure. I get pretty lazy/relaxed from opiates and just feel good all around. I get super mellow. But with weed, depending on the strain, I'll get a head rush/high and that mixed with my body being super mellow was really...interesting hahah. I was super fucked up physical but also like 95% mentally there in a way. Which is kind of like opposite of what normally happens to me haha. It was intense and also my first time so I was hit with it pretty hard. I haven't experienced anything like it since.

I was the last one to try it in my group of friends. It was right after grade 12 has ended so I was 17. I didn't completely come down until 4:00PM the next day so I was high for 20 hours. Didn't do it until I got to university and now it's a nightly routine.

I think I was 15-16 and probably no alcohol.... but I could be wrong....

Unfortunately my year group at school was the group/ age group/ idiots that was super into "legals" .... that was a mutherfrickin issue and a half in New Zealand

10/10 do not recommend legals.... don't ever smoke them

Literally first time i had K2 is something i will never forget

lost all control of my legs and arms and collapsed to the ground and one of my now ex-bfs friends picked me up and carried me back across the road to their house... and i jus remember the purple flowers on the bush were so purple and everything was spinning everywhere

Summer between 7th and 8th grade was when I tried it. First time didn't get that high, smoked out of a can..next time hit a bowl and it was rad.
Smoked from 8th grade to 10th grade and then stopped for 2.5 years and since I started back smoking pot I've probably smoked more weed in the last 6 months than I have in my entire life.

No alcohol was involved my first time

I was 18, and my Gastroenterologist said something along the lines of "so, you've tried marijuana for the pain.... right?"

next day i bought my first gram, rolled it into a cigarette on my apartment's roof, and ate the first FULL meal I didn't puke in months. (waffle house)

I can't believe NZ government legalized plant matter sprayed with chemicals from China with virtually zero regulation instead of just decriminalizing/legalizing cannabis. Unbelievably stupid.

I smoked that synthetic stuff once and never again. Gave me tunnel vision, objects were "breathing" like there we expanding and contracting in pulses, colours went all out of whack, and it felt like my brain turned to mush. It wasn't a fun psychedelic experience at all just a really fucked up feeling and not knowing what the fuck is going on.

So frickin fucked right! They back tracked on it pretty fast but shit so many people are addicted like this article said they don't care they'd smoke anything!

It's definitely fucked up, especially since weed is barely even "frowned" upon down here. (Dad literally said the other day 'do those ski boys smoke as much as they used to')

I don't smoke, never have. But that's not why I'm posting. My full time job is as a firefighter/EMT. Don't screw around with spice/K2/synthetic. We were talking just the other day about how we almost never deal with weed-only calls. But it's nearly a weekly basis we go on someone really fucked up on spice. It does bad things to you. Not worth it.

Also heroin. Stay away from heroin.

I should also clarify that I have never smoked and never will. Why would you purposely inhale smoke? Smoke is not good for you..
