Coughing?

Discussion in 'Experienced Cannabis Enthusiasts' started by 4:21, Nov 14, 2006.

  1. Im a smoker that rarely coughs after a nice hit. I dont know why, occasionally I might a small cough after a hit, but rarely ever. Anyonw else like me?
     
  2. i WAS like that for a long time....

    i ot pnuemonia and when i started smoking again, i coughed like a virgin...

    i think it was because the pnuemonia made my lungs weak but i don't know


    but it sucks now because everyone always like "yeah hock up a lung bro"

    different bodies do different things...
     
  3. i used to be that way too.

    but ever since i came down with bronchitis(sp) about 3 weeks ago, ive caughed like an iddiot. i took a break for a while but ive started smoking again and i dont think im over this shit yet. sucks too, i used to have really good lungs.
     
  4. well maybe the hit is too small for u.
    come milk up my nice 1meter bong and the cough is guaranteed ;)
     

  5. I took a hit from a 4" bong of a hybrid of white rhino and blueberry it tasted so good and i was coughing so much i got high as fuck too.

    i got a j in my hand tho better stop typing :smoking:
     
  6. i usually cough on purpose. gets you higher.
     

  7. that's what i'm talkin' 'bout boys...
    u cough the brains out and u get high as fuuuuuuuuuuuck...
    +rep
     

  8. hey i say its a blessing.
    the whole "you get high when you cough thing" doesnt seem to make any sense to me. I think the point is that when you take a big hit, of really dank weed, its going to get you really high, BUT most people cough from doing so, not that one follows the other.
    either way, for me, getting a coughing fit ruins the gentle entry to the high, because then my lungs are sore and i feel sort of roughed up by the experience.

    as long as you dont think the hits are so small that youre not getting anything out of them (which doesnt seem to be the case) you should just be happy that your lungs are doing a pretty good job.
     
  9. What I've noticed is even when I'm not high and maybe just sick or something and I start caughing like I do whenever I take a huge hit blood or something rushes to your head ( not a doctor, haha ) and it seems as if something's happening so that may be why people think your getting higher, none the less blaze on :smoking:
     
  10. I dont cough much when i take big hits. I generally give the credit to me not smoking cigarettes.
     

  11. When you cough it opens up the cappilaries(sp?) in your lungs an allows mor THC to be absorbed.
     
  12. i never do it on purpose, but it does seem to get you higher, so i guess i don't mind a nice cough haha. :smoking:
     
  13. Saying coughing gets you higher is retarded.

    That is like saying throwing up gets you drunker..

    The fact you are coughing is due to a big hit. What happens when you take a big hit? Well you tend to get high(er).
     
  14. i view coughing as 3 stages.....the erly days, aka noobie days, the first year or so of smokin when any smoke just tears up your lungs and makes you cough,then the middle days....which is like 15-20 yrs of smokin, where you never cough, and then the end days, where u cough no matter what cuz of all the tar n shit your lungs have seen over the yrs, unfortunitly im at stage 3, evvery hit of bud im chokin usualy
     

  15. im not quite sure what you mean by "opens capillaries", they are blood vessles, and are always "open" in the lungs, so there is always CO2 and O2 exchange going on.
    coughing causes you to qickly expel everything in your lungs, and your lungs to constrict. I dont see how this could cause more thc to enter the body, cosidering the smoke that carries the thc is being expelled, and the lungs are creating less open surface area for the thc to move through into the blood stream.

    i could be wrong, but considering that coughing is a natural reaction to expel things from the lungs/throat, i cant understand how it would help whatever is in the lungs to get into the body.
     
  16. I don't cough so much, coughing does get you higher tho, not exactly for sure why, has something to do with opening the airways and bringing in more oxygen.
