as a non smoker the attempt to smoke didn’t end very well.

Ouch!!! Yeah I remember my first time. I was in uni and two older girls (rocker girls) shared some weed with mine and my friends 'fresher' selves.

I'd done bongs up to that point cos I was very anti-smoking. But I asked to try a spliff and dragged on it - COUGH!! "Cough" doesn't do it justice!!! It felt like I was gonna vomit my fucking lungs and soul!! EVIL!! Fucking evil and to make it worse the two girls screamed "VIRGIN LUNGS, VIRGIN LUNGS!!!!!".

Any sense of pride quickly evacuated as I recovered on the FLOOR spitting and hacking like my life depended on it. I don't think they were "mean" - they just found the first toke - and reflex (virgin lungs), hacking like you're dying - funny. :/

Anyway after that first time my lungs seemed to be adapted. Even with long breaks I've never had a moment that bad so I think your brain or lungs just get used to it.

If not "mixing" have you done any other drugs besides alcohol? I only ask cos I'm a former addict so was gonna go on a long philosophical journey but thought I'd better ask before I make any assumptions!!! 😂

P.S. I'm not anti-drugs. I'm pro legalisation with caveats. ;)

Luckily it wasn't that bad for me. I just had to cough a lot and recoverd relatively fast.

Also, no so far I haven't tried other drugs except alcohol.
