Help Me Give Advice To My Buddy ...

    I smoke pretty regularly ...

    Well, not as much as of late, been freaking busy as hell, but that's besides the point.

    Anyways, I smoke pretty regularly and while most of the times my highs are very chill, relaxing, "spiritual" experiences, every once in a while I have the high that's very "anxiety ridden". I think everyone atleast once or twice has had that high where they feel their heart beating, feel shortness of breath, and they think they're having a panic attack, and whatnot.

    It's one of the things that happens. Life goes on.

    Well, I have a buddy who is newer to toking, and he called me today and told me that last night he had that kind of high. He asked me if I ever had that, I calmly told him yes, and he asked me what to do. My response was, "Dude, that kind of thing is all in your head. The worst thing you could do is think that that's gonna' happen every time you smoke, because then it'll happen every time you smoke. It'll ruin weed for you. Just realize that you're not having a heart attack or panic attack, and focus on something else. Most of all, relax."

    Surprisingly, this didn't calm him down, and he's still neurotic about smoking. He thinks it's gonna' give him a heart attack or something. Does anyone here have calming words I can pass along to him? I thought my words were pretty calming, but they didn't seem to work.

    You might hear this alot but its true, no one has ever died from weed. Plain and simple. I get those all the time and its because i dont feel "Safe." Like i get them when im in public and ripped. When im just chilling I am always good to go. Just tell him to chill and smoke at his house or a safe place until he gets the full hang of toking.

    Hope it helped.:smoke:

    Quick follow up.

    My buddy apparently smoked up last night and told me that he "got lost watching a movie" and because his mind wasn't focusing on getting panic attacks he (gasp) didn't have a panic attack !!!

    LoL ... crazy, I know.
