my first time trying it and my heart rate increased tremendously. i thought i was going to have a heart attack and die. i was deathly afraid and i began to cry. my friends told me to calm myself and finally after about 5 minutes it went away. i wonder if this has happened to anyone else? is it normal?
i was so afraid that i was going to die that i stayed away from it ever since.

haha oh yeah...
my friend, i do believe you experienced what i would like to call a PANIC or PARANOIA attack! haha
it happened to me because i was soooo scared and knew i was doing something illegal!!
I was shaking uncontrollably.. finally I calmed down and was fine...
this happens to a lot of people the first time they try it.. that will go away, and will be a much better experience if you do it again.. and it wont kill you! i promise!
but then again.. its good that it scared you away.. bc you dont want to get caught and get introuble either

this can and does happen to alot of 1st time users.Keep in mind it is only a state of mind. it can effect different people in different ways and elevated heart rate as well as a slight feeling of paranoia is not uncommon for someone new to using marijuana.from repeated use you will notice it goes away. Its similar to alcohol, if it doesn't work for you don't do it. If you knew your father and grandfather were alcoholics would you drink in excess? Of course not. I you continue to feel this way from pot you may want to go drinking instead. How many of of you leaving comments have actually smoked? and are exactly qualified to answer? Beacause a few igonorant people want to push a man made agaenda that makes it illegal? What logic is that? My suggestion is if you havent tried it then please dont comment. What right do you people have to push your closed minded redneck ideals on the rest of us. Live and let live loosers. Or you may find yourself one day on the other end of argument that you will not win. if you already have an opinion w/out trying it we dont need your pointless uneduacated answers. Go back to church and tell someone who cares. Marijuana smokers are not criminals not matter what the law tells you. Think people, or is this fouled up country so far gone already?God help us. Stay the hell out of others lives, or invite me into yours

This is normal... marijuana increases heart rate. This can give you the idea that you are having a heart attack. The only attack you are having is a panic attack. Take iot slow... marijuana is an enjoyable thing that is relativly safe. NO ONE HAS EVER DIED DUE TO DIRECT USE OF MARIJUANA... dont let anyone tell you otherwise. Kick back and enjoy yourself.... but enjoy in moderation so you dont become a lazy pothead like me.

WOW, sorry to hear you had a bad experience...but usually NO pot does not speed up your heart rate to the point that you think you might die! and it definitely does not kill! unless what you smoked was laced with something like coke, or angel dust, all depending on what type of plant you smoke, how much of it, in what kind of environment and like i said it was most likely laced with something else, pure and natural pot might cause some anxiety in some people but for the most part it relaxes both body and mind, depending on if its a sativa or intiqua...don't smoke pot if you tried it just to try it and realized its not for you, every time you smoke it you will have a different experience...but don't worry you did not come close to death, and you will be fine! peace out!

hahahahahahaahAAA...
yes this has happened to me. It involved a cold night and a crazy fat blunt, me and my bf were sharing it when my heart started racing like crazy and i was getting super paranoid like OMG is my heart going to explode it's going so fast!!! & then I got super dizzy and then I threw up. the first and only time i've ever "Od'd" on marijuana.
But no you won't die at all keep on puffin the happy grass :D
P.s. all this talk about marijuana has made me pop out the bing'er.
p.P.s. the Salvia stuff is CRAZY NUTS. i've tried that and it makes you halucinate like crazy i will never touch that stuff again, i swear i saw big bird from sesame street walk into my kitchen. I was not mentally there for like 10 minutes then you get super super hot. I don't understand how something like that is legal and marijuana isnt.....?

yeah, your first time is always the hardest, because your body isn't used to it. Don't worry. If you ever want to try it again it'll be a much better feeling. That shouldn't happen all the time. Just the first two or three times. Next time just try not to smoke as much and you'll be okay.

Sometimes when you smoke the chronic stuff it will do that to you. I would suggest your first time taking one hit...but I don't suggest doing it! lol When I smoked for the first few times my head would spin and my stomach got upset like I was going to puke! I didn't smoke for a long time because I was scared. It is probablly a sign not to smoke. Think of something better to do. Yah it might be the cool thing...but in the long run it really isn't. Just be careful. You probablly won't ever die from it...unless it is laced with something. It sorta sounds like it was because the way you described sorta sounds like an acid or mushroom trip. Maybe they put some hash on the top or something. Another lesson: don't smoke with strangers. Oh don't smoke at all!

A friend of mine tried something called "salvia," which had a similar effect on him. Others, who also normally smoke marijuana, haven't had any side effects like what you've described unless the marijuana was laced with something. But, it is probably best to stay away from all of it all together.

marijuana is not a stimulant in fact its a depressant
what you experienced was a panic attack brought on by the vicious lies that people spread about marijuana use
scare tactics used to bring a stigma around a very harmless drug

you were probably given marijuana w/something in it, or you freaked out b/c you didn't know what you body was feeling.
I had a friend who got a hold of a primo, pot which is laced with crack. She was going crazy insane for a couple of hours, and I'm so glad I didn't smoke it.
I stay away from drugs in general b/c you don't know what they put in your dope nowadays.
