Beginners Questions

[Dekri]

Hello everyone,
I'm reletivly new to the world of the hookah, and recently have been
going to a hookah bar. I just have a question though. Is it normal to
have a stomach ache or feel sick after you smoke? I've only smoked
three times for about an hour and a half to two hours, and have gotten
this way everytime. If it is normal, is there any way to make it so I
don't feel this?

Anymore symptoms to describe? I have gotten all sorts of various
symptoms from hookah, I once smoke nakhla mint 4 times in a row, got a
pounding headache, passed out and had the most messed up dream ever.
One time I could taste everything better, another timeicould hear
better, a few times i got extremely dizzy and couldnt walk, one time i
even got so disoriented that i attempted to goto the bathroom and
pissed all over myself 

as for reducing this buzz, you can puff less often, take shallow puffs,
dont hold the smoke in your lungs, sample different flavors and find
the weakest one, smoke on a full stomach

Thanks, that link is exactly what I was looking for.

All I've gotten is a stomach ache so its probably becuase I didn't eat before hand.

Dont smoke. Sorry, that's not much help.

This used to happen to me occasionally when I first started smoking. 2 hours is a long time to continually smoke if your body has no nicotine tolerance. What coals are they using? Some (Rolland ) will make me puke within 20 minutes of pulling from one.Just inhale less frequently- you'll get to a point where it doesnt affect you the same any more

Hedache,dizziness and disorientation are the symptoms of Carbn Monoxide poisoning. I had such problems before but when I switched to an other brand of coal everything was OK.You should at last open a window or something, some fresh air might help!!

Smoking and drinking at the same time often cause this for me.So I just chill out on both if I'm doing both together.

i used to get like that too and i still get sick from it if im on an empty stomach.in fact the other week i had gone to a hookah bar after i had gone to a greek cafe where a i drank too many coffees and smoked too many cigs.i puked all over myself at the hookah bar.it made me sooo nautious.now i just eat something before i smoke.seems to help.
