I've never done it before.

Depends on the drug.

Explaining being high to someone who has never done it, is like explaining to a deaf person what it is like to hear.

Okay let's say Marijuana.

just go fucking do it you pussy. :D

Nothing matters, problems can wait, all you want is food, and it tastes soooo goood.
Sitting down chilling for hours without getting bored.
Talking codshit to your friends, and laughing so dam hard about it.

Increased touch sensitivity.

Well obviously drugs make you feel good, why else would people do them? There's also the other effects like the distortion of time and whatnot, some people like sitting back and looking at the world in an altered state.

This. It alters your perception of reality. Not to easy for most people to explain. Go check out Erowid for a lot of basic information.

You'll know what it's like because I'll give you a sign.

That sign will be that life is awesome.

Don't listen to these retards. See, all these people describing weed here are children, and we all know how reliable children are. Marijuana is nothing like these people say. Well, a little, but my point is, they are exaggerating like a motherfucker.

Making it out to be more than it is. Marijuana is not LSD or mescaline or mushrooms people.

Yeah drugs affect people differently dude.. I know people that will get hypo and do stupid shit from ganja and others that will just get tired and go to bed..
Personally i dont like it.

If you are interested enough to make this thread, then take your first step through the doors of perception and smoke a joint. NOW

Im not sure how to look at this thread...

It's hard to describe something like that. There are many writers who have done it pretty well though. You could just say "It gives you the munchies and makes you laugh at shit" but i'm not going to say that because that's not even close to why I smoke marijuana. Wait...high how?

Time doesnt exist....You are without worries and nothing matters, all of your problems dissappear.

You can take any description that anyone will say, and it will be fairly inaccurate to how it's going to be for you. Everybody is different, especially when it comes to how drugs interact with your individual brain chemistry.

When I smoked weed (I don't anymore...), I did it because I enjoyed it, and always got a FANTASTIC sleep afterwards. Not to mention that food tastes great, funny things are even funnier, etc.

I stopped because it kinda fucked up my lungs, and made me a generally lazy person.

Now I just drop acid. Why? The same reason I do any sort of drug - because I enjoy it.

If you're going to get into drugs, it's important to weigh the pros and cons before trying something, and to know yourself first.

Hell, weed is possibly the drug with the lowest risk of ... well, anything. Why not just go smoke a joint?

ok basically, your whole body feels really good in a weird way, sort of like it feels heavy. it also makes you happier, you get A LOT hungrier, time feels like it is going by really slow, you get tired, and your short term memory is completely shot to hell.

thats basically it.

i think.

weed doesnt really make you "trip" or see things, people who say that are fucking retarded. i dont care how much you smoke, it might be sort of trippy, but you are not actually tripping.

Troll?
Meh, if you is, you does good..

Anyway, I'd describe it as fun.
Fun that you have to free from it's cellulose prison and hock off it's story to the history channel.

I'm outta weed. :(

just to point this out, even though it has brought up the interesting question of how to explain feeling high to someone who has never experienced it, judging by the OP's profile and other posts and topics, he's a troll, or just an idiotic ten year old. or both.

edit: silverballs beat me to it on the troll observation.

Imagine all of your child-hood joyfilled days... remember that carefree, easy, fun feeling? THAT is what weed is about. It's like inhaling all of your childhood happiness.

That is actually a quite accurate description. For me, the smell of marijuana brings me back to being a kid. Then again, growing up, our house always smelled like pot. My parents are huge stoners. But whenever I walk into my house, and it reeks of pot, I'm just like aahhh, HOME. Get that nice warm fuzzy feeling. Reminds me of being a kid.

Okay let's say Marijuana.

things become more funny... your mind wanders on things that are completely pointless... you want to eat, and its extremely satisfying... increased sensitivity to touch, white noise like the sound of rain from an open window becomes much louder... the mouth is dry... you feel relaxed... you have a higher appreciation for nature and the people around you... colors seem brighter....

but of course if you smoke enough it becomes a little bit more of a mental thing.... ive full blown tripped out on weed when i had no tolerance... now it just relaxes me and is generally nice and easy on the body and mind.... Venatical, you can trip out on weed, its a matter of tolerance and experience... you let someone whos never smoke take as many bong rips of headies as they can stand, and you will be lucky if they dont freak out in a way very reminiscent of someone having a bad trip... ive seen it happen , ive experienced it myself... let my friend whos never smoked before a small bowl of headies and soon enough hes screaming about how it hurts to think and jabbering nonsense.... then he came down a bit, got the munchies and started enjoying it.... for me, i started losing my sense of self, it took large amounts of effort to even conceive that i was in my own room, and who lived in the house... and from there my thoughts became vivid enough to become more real than actual reality, i became part of them...

you can trip out on weed....

Imagine the funnest thing you have ever done and multiply it by 85. That wouldn't even be close to how awesome it would be to do it when you're high. Highness enhances life because it's fun. Fun times fun equals fun squared. Ya dig? Now imagine getting anally raped by a broomstick. That would suck, right? NOW imagine getting raped by that same broomstick, but this time you're on PCP. You could seriously fuck up the rapist with your new found super stength. Drugs are life enhancing fun makers and that is why you should take them all day everyday. Drugs are the solutions to all of our problems. Drugs are drugs, which means that they exist and if something exists you better try it. Do you want to live a decent life with hot bitches wanting your cock? If the answer is yes, then you should use more drugs than I previously stated and all will be well. If your answer is no, then "Nigga, you gay!" Not that I"m saying there's anything wrong with being gay (mansecks is gross, but apparently some people are into it) but I just thought it was my job to let everyone know the truth. So, what do you say young man, are you ready to enter the seedy underworld of illegal drug use?

Heh...here's some real advice.

You're obviously curious. The truth is obviously doing it once isn't going to do anything to you (except maybe get you high), it won't immidiatly make you become a hobo, it won't destroy your lungs, it won't make you kill your neighbor, you won't be addicted, you won't be "cooler", and it won't ruin your mind and it won't permanently change you unless you enjoy it and want to continue down that road.

Oh and 1st time I tried it I got an aweful placebo of horendous paranoia and I learned something about myself.

In my opinion my life it way better since I started smoking (on more than a weekly basis).

What is it like?

If you've never been in that consciousness before you can't know what its like. Try it.

If you're afraid read this book. (http://benefitsofmarijuana.com/)

I love this cunt.

human traffic, good movie lol

Written under the influence from cover to cover.


AND IT SHOWS......

I quote this page: http://benefitsofmarijuana.com/benefits.html

(2nd paragraph, 3rd & 4th sentence)

"Normally the body vacillates between the two opposing modes of being. The effects of the complicated marijuana molecule somehow actually integrate these two modes, simultaneously, as absolutely nothing else does."

weed fails.

robotussin ftw

What is it like to be high?

Sometimes its hard to hear things cause the pressure up here gets pretty intense sometimes. When you look down, things look like they are incredibly far away, they look like ants.

It's pretty much the opposite of low.

This is pretty damn accurate for me, everything you do almost feels nostalgic, I like to play the N64 cause I played it tons when I was a kid, and when I play it during my high, I'm reliving my great memories.

You have all these incredible important insights into shit like why those aliens in Starship Troopers are FUCKING SPIDERS and then later sometimes you remember those revelations, but they make absolutely no sense out of the context of being aware on multiple levels of consciousness (aka getting high). Otherwise you remember that you thought of something really important but can't remember what and you get all sad because it felt important.

run run run to the cities of the future, take what they have, and bring it back home!

run run run to the cities of the future, take what they have, and bring it back home!

That's such a fucking great song on any drug.

Incredibly overrated boring shit, the only positive thing derived from being high off weed is that food tastes like magic, I find alcohol more fun.

first time you smoke pot. shit hits the fan brah.

Well for weed it just pretty much chills you out. Music and food are better while you're high and you will be kind of slow in the head. You could get a little paranoid but thats only if you have something to worry about like if you have see your parents when you're high. Just relax, it's not like tripping, it's just weed.

Oh wow, why not just find out yourself? Well I guess I'll tell you. Everything is a fucking adventure. The microwave takes years to countdown. Jerking off just became awesome again. Watch a movie you'll have no clue what's going on ,but it will be the best thing you've ever experienced. Look in the mirror for epic lulz.

Don't learn the hard way and get high when you having nothing to eat drink. You'll want to kill yourself.

not everyone gets the munchies and even then they arent THAT bad. for me eatings an easy way to get caught, cuz ya know taking 5 minutes to scoop a bowl of ice cream.

have you ever gotten a blowjob?
they are COMPLETELY different feelings.

Time exists for me... it's just SLOW or FAST... it doesn't seem to keep up with how perceive it. Which I know is how you meant it, but whatever...

Problems don't disappear for me, I'm just less worried. I think it's more of a "living in the present" or "it just makes you happy regardless" kind of thing... "Important" things seems less important, and you start realizing what is really important after a while. Which for me is just being happy.

It's different for everyone.

I describe the way things look to people as being 2D, but 3D, at the same time. Like, paper mario... you can perceive what's closer to you and what's farther away (depth perception), but things seem really flat to me... IDK... That's just me though...

You might have weird thoughts or you won't be able to stop laughing... Being high is kinda like tripping, in the sense that, each time has that familiar feel (depending on dosage, obviously), but it's kinda different each time. The following doesn't go as much for weed though.

I believe you should try almost everything once... with the exception of diphen, which you should do if you want to believe in your hallucinations... or so I've read...

Basically, you're not going to know what it feels like. Like someone above said, it's like trying to explain how hearing is to a deaf person... who's been deaf from birth of course... otherwise they already know.

On a completely unrelated note, I've always wondered what it would be like to be blind from birth... That would be weird...

Fantastic. Plain and simple.

I mean sometimes my lungs burn, but that's when I know it was a good hit.

You don't care about anything and a lot more things seem funny. Nothing else matters except whats happening right in the moment and if you've set it up right its so enjoyable. I prefer it more than alcohol, overall its just good. You have to experience it for yourself to really see, and even if it doesn't seem the best you need to set up who to do it with (personally I have the best time with my closest friends) because you have to be completely relaxed with who you are and who you're with to really enjoy it.

The only night in the past 3 months I haven't been high is Christmas Eve, and that's only because I was with my parents who are hardcore against drugs.

I highly suggest you smoke some, everyone smoke some, and soon.

Achewood much?

its like that feeling you get

when a nigger rams his cock up your ass

and you feel the aids spreading into you

as a peruvian dictator shits on your face

Im gonna kick all your asses at describing this.

Alright, first everything you do has a really adventurous feel to it. Going on a walk? Its gonnna be 100X better. You can hear your voice of thought alot clearer, and think "outside the box"

And of course the munchies. For your first time munching out get some good solid, fullfilling food like a pizza, a burger or your favorite food. You will not be disappointed if your high enough.

awesome, just do it

It's like that feeling when you do drugs.

being high is that feeling that youve always had your whole life just amplified. whatever that feeling is. being high is like adding the word "too" right before it. everything is too bright, too dark, too sweet, too NORMAL. it just enhances everything. it gets your heart racing you hear your thoughts. you open pandoras box. you let out everything youve known about yourself to your conscious. everything melts, but it doesnt. its always been there. that trees always been there. you know it so well. you question everything, and you want to believe it. it confuses the hell out of you at first. its like theres a swing in your mind going from one emotion to another back and forth really fast. sorry man im kinda drunk, but thats what being high is like. I SWEAR.

lulz.. I was walking away from my laptop when i read this and almost tripped over the dog.. I had to come back and read it again.

lol

Getting high is as different from person to person as their fingernails. Some people see shit, colour's etc. Some people get a mild tingling whilst other's may get nothing.

^tru.

being high is a feeling of "niceness" in your head.

basically its like the feeling of an orgasm over extended periods.


some drugs can even give you an intense rush of euphoria.


check out the definitio0n of euphoria.

that basically explains what a "high" is.
