For those who smoke or smoked pot at one time how did you get started and why?!
Question: For those who smoke or smoked pot at one time how did you get started and why.?
I was asking myself why and how people get started. I started because a friend of mine was really into it and he asked me if I wanted to toke up. I've been clean for months now. But I was just wondering what the overall consensus was. Health Question & Answer
Answers:
I started smoking cigarettes because of peer pressure. I was young (high school) and all my friends were smoking. None of them every offered or pressured me into smoking, but I guess I was influenced by them indirectly (especially when we sneaked out to drink on weekends).
In contrast to cigarette smoking, I tried weed on my own. I had heard about it and seen movies like Half Baked. Sheer curiosity I guess. A non-toker friend helped me score. Although after I had tried it, there were many friends (high school and college) who I smoked with as it was a social activity just like drinking.
Bottom line: I guess smoking (weed and cigarettes) is a result of a combination of curiosity, peer pressure, and pop-culture/media portrayal.Health Question & Answer

Mine was just out of pure curiousity. I used to ask people all the time what it was like and stuff but was always to scared to try it...then i tried it and ended up jumping in trash cans and i really liked it. Ended up smoking for almost 2 years after that but am proud to say I have been clean for almost a year and a half now.

I smoked pot because my friends did and I thought I was super cool. Then I started smoking because I found a pack of cigs in my sisters purse, so my other sister and I smoked all of them (within a few days) and I quit when I got pregnant.Health Question & Answer
