I want to try weed for the first time. Need a few questions answered

I'm very new to weed. My advice is as follows;

  1. Smoke it. Have a couple draws, see how you feel, give it a few minutes then have some more. The good thing about smoking it is you can dose as you go so you can learn your tolerance pretty quickly.

  2. Keep water handy plus a variety of snacks and just in general make sure you're comfortable.

  3. Watch something light hearted/funny. This was advice given to me (I smoked alone my first time). I guess the idea being if you watch something scary or like a thriller or some shit you might get paranoid? Idk.

  4. It's not as big a deal as you think. I liking it to being drunk without the negative effects. You're not going to die. And if you're only smoking small amounts to begin with it's not going to last a long time either. Finding out whether the weed gives you a body high or head high would be beneficial as you know what you're getting yourself in for.

  5. Do a bit of research if you want but not too much. You'll begin to overthink shit and read all the scaremongering articles etc.

All in all just let go and enjoy the moment.

Last piece of advice, as I was smoking alone I decided to stay in touch with a friend or two, texting them fairly regularly. I don't know why but I found it sort of comforting.

Oh. And if you're worried about the smell in your home buy some scented candles and shit.
