Newb Needs Advice...


Recommended Posts

hey guys,

this was my 4th time smoking shisha (dbl apple oh yea laugh.gif ), and my 2nd time setting up the hookah. Basically tonight went really well setting it up, but i think a little to well... Im not a smoker of cigs or anything like that just the occassional shisha session lol. But its been about 3 hours after i did shisha and i still feel a little buzz (not much but very little). Is it normal to feel like that especially since im new to it (btw i was inhaling about 40% of the time)....

lmk,
alex

are you sure your feeling the buzz and it hasnt transitioned to nicotine sickness/hunger? what brand are you smoking, and also how long was your session.

also, when you mention you were inhaling 40% of the time, I justh ave a question about that, becuase mose people inahle hookah without noticing/trying. how were you "inhaling?" after hitting, would you breathe in again?

originally when i started i thought if i didnt breathe in a second time, i wasn't inhaling, which i found after a friend pointed it out to be not true. take a hit from your hookah, don't conciously try to inhale. now see if you can blow smoke out of your nose. if smoke comes out of your nose, you've been inhaling all along... if you puff a cig, pipe, cigar, or hookah and don't inhale, smoke won't come out of your nose... (at least, very very little, maybe)

thanks for the response... i was using Nakhla's dbl apple, my session lasted for about half hour to 45 minutes... the method i was inhaling with was just basically inhaling through my nose (while 'sucking' in the smoke from the hookah pipe)

pretty sure thats still inhaling... the only way you can not "inhale" is if you hit it and the smoke only stays in your mouth... which is pointless because you get very little smoke and very little flavor...

what the hell? plug your nose and breathe in through your mouth while you hold the tip of the hose there! if your doing what i am imagining, you cant be getting much smoke unless your swallowing it but that would make you feel like crap. im trying ot inhale from both my nose and mouth and its hard, seems like im inhaling alot at once. when you are inhaling, no air should come through your nose. if you think you need more air (its kinda harsh but not so much that its too hot/burning/coal taste) just open your mouth just a little from around the hose to let a little air in.

sry for the what the hell i was just picturing this happening in my mind the way it translated.

your not doing anything wrong, jsut learning =)

EDIT 2: just reread your post. if you were smoking alot, like i have before and you dont smoke cigarettes or shisha much at all, i can see you still having a buzz after 3 hours, it is more of a lingering feeling rather that the buzz. you dont feel exactly like yourself, probably just a relaxing type feeling eh?

its hard for me to imagine inhaling through both. i was saying you should try plugging your nose. i thought you might have had trouble inhaling. but i reread the post and found that your still buzzed. if you were in fact smoking shisha 40% of the time meaning 40% smoke, 60% normal breaths, you should have probably go so light headed that you would fall over had you been doing it for like 30 mins. i think you may be a little drowsy or just have a more relaxed feeling to you than normal, which may feel to you like a kind of buzz.
