And prepare what you’re gonna have ahead of time for if you get the munchies. The first time I ever smoked weed, I ate a loaf of bread and a jar of peanut butter (because it was the quickest food I could get my hands on) and spent the next hour thinking I was alternately gonna throw up or shit myself … while high.
Comment on Is trying weed edibles worth it?

You should wait a bit, it’s true about the studies. To be honest, I wouldn’t say a few times hurts much but it’s relatively easy to build a dependency though. Easy to go from every weekend, to every few days to always.
That being said, I second what people say about smoking and I also recommend using a good quality bong to make it easier on your throat. The smoothest hits I’ve ever taken have been with a home made gravity bong made out of a glass vodka bottle. Avoid plastic though, yuck. Don’t over do it if you use a bong. No need for like mega hits, you won’t need a lot anyways although some people don’t get high their first times.

Thank you for mentioning this. I didn’t try weed until my mid-20s and it took years of intermittent trying before I actually felt high. I’d never heard that this could happen, so I just got upset thinking I’d never be able to understand what the big appeal of weed was. Only in my late 20s, at a friend’s party where I’d already gotten pretty buzzed on alcohol, did a hit of a pipe make me finally feel something.
I don’t know if it finally clicked because of lowered inhibitions due to the alcohol, or if my brain had to build up to feeling an effect, or what, but weed’s worked as intended ever since. I will add that I’m the type of person that has been asked throughout my teenage years, “What are you smoking? And can I have a hit?” despite being 100% sober until my 20s. Maybe having an already-weird brain had something to do with it?
So yeah, OP, be prepared to discover that you might not feel anything from weed at all. It doesn’t seem to be terribly common, but it is definitely possible that nothing happens the first few tries.
