How do I not get sleepy?

Discussion in 'Beginner Cannabis Consumption & Tips' started by Shabab, Apr 7, 2010.

  1. I always blaze then end up falling asleep no matter what i'm doing... I know the actual act of falling asleep is self control, but is there something I can do to not automatically be tired after smoking? I use a glass pipe

    :hello:
     
  2. i usually drink a redbull/monster
     
  3. Get more sleep at night, and try and find more sativa dominant strains. Those damn indicas will keep you down man.
     
  4. you're probably getting a indica dominant, have low tolerance or just unlucky. try staying hydrated and eating some complex carbs(pasta,whole grains)
     
  5. Take into account:

    -When you toke
    -How healthy you are
    -What you do after you toke

    In my experience, smoking weed only adds a little fatigue that isn't unconquerable. Perhaps you've been smoking too much indica?

    To resolve it, maybe go for a walk (preferably away from public), or take part in an activity that requires focus and mental/physical skills.
     
  6. Laugh just tell yourself everything is funny and it will be, when your high you in total control of your mind, well mostly. Dont get freaked out or paranoid. Let your mind believe whatever its thinking its like improv accept everything your mind tell you, best way to have a great trip and not get too sleepy. Enjoy dude:smoking:
     
  7. Well different strains of marijuana affect people differently. Some make you giggly and joyful while others make people tired. To me it sounds like the strain you've been smoking is the latter strain of marijuana. I'd suggest drinking an energy drink beforehand or take something like a 5 hour energy and adjust how your body handles it from there.

    Hope this helped, peace.
     
  8. although it sounds as if the chemistry particular to your person may in fact have you disposed to getting even more tired from smoking weed than do others, it's still true that getting a bit sleepy after smoking weed is probably one of the most commonly reported side effects. it sounds like you may enjoy the benefits of drinking some coffee before you toke, or even opt for a reasonable dose of some other sort of stimulant if you're open to that (adderall perhaps). if this sort of solution is not for you, i suppose i'd suggest you try opting for sativa-dominant strains (if the choice is there to make).

    edit: haha wow when i started typing my post there were no other replies...then a whole lot...i need to quit rambling so much when im stoned
     
  9. wake and bake
     
  10. And bake himself right back to sleep.

    Stay hydrated, take it easy on the munchies. I usually don't fall to sleep cause of being high, but because I over ate.
     
  11. Don't smoke when your already tired, stay hydrated and maybe have a bite to eat(real food not junk).

    If that doesn't help then just don't smoke too much.
    Smoke something sativa dominent instead or use a vaporizer.
