So I started drinking last year my freshman year of college and getting drunk is a lot of fun. It makes me more outgoing and bubbly but people always tell me that getting high is better so I just started smoking this year at college. My first time getting high I was extremely paranoid which everyone says is normal your first time but I’ve been smoking for a while now and every time I get high I get super paranoid and I can’t process anything that’s going on in the room and I forget every sentence someone says to me and it’s never fun. Is all of what I’m experiencing normal? Cause everyone I talked to says that getting high is more fun but I can’t relate. I like getting drunk a lot more. I just feel left out because I can never get a good high. Is there something wrong with me that maybe I can fix? Cause I really want to get the good high that everyone’s talking about. I also want to find out if there’s a reason why I get extremely paranoid every time.

I find modern marijuana to be a very sharp double-edged sword.
Today it's nothing like it was back in the 70s.
It was moderately fun for me back then, becoming less fun as the Mexican of the 70s turned into the Columbian of the 80s, which pretty much just gave me a stomachache. The stuff today is advanced far, far beyond that of yesteryear.
When I tried it again recently for the first time in close to 40 years, I found it to be a mixture of a really, really good high and really, really bad paranoia, sometimes quickly switching back and forth between the two extremes.
I think it affects different people differently.
There are many strains that can produce different results in people.
As bad as the paranoia was in my recent attempts, the good parts of it were so good that I am tempted to try it again.
I'm like you in that I prefer alcohol, but there are reasons for it not agreeing with me health wise.
It's up to you if you want to keep trying it.
I wish you luck.
Thanks for the advice I appreciate it
You bet.
Take care.
It has to do with the potency of the weed these days. I stopped for the same reason, and I hear its been happening a lot.
