Effects - Losing The giggles

[glade101]

for those that dont no its when you get stoned and start laughing for no reason.

Most people I ask say they stoped geting this after smokeing weed for a while.
Now I dont think this is true I think this is proberly because being based in the uk most of it is home grown now (after 9/11 and all that its harder to import weed)and its mostly indica becuase it's suposed to grow easier than sativa indoors.

So what ones true lack of sativa weed
Or
something happens to your body what makes you not want to lol for nothing?

When you see a funny movie, you laugh. When you see it a second time, you might just smile. When you see it for the 300th time, you might cry, unless you really like the movie of course.

[glade101]

So them random bursts of laughter have to end somewhere..........

Well, I don't know. They did for SWIM anyway. Same thing happened with magic mushrooms. First few trips resulted in hours of endless giggling, the next few after that were more like introspective journeys into the subconscious. SWIM finds that he feels a little more giggly when he lays off weed for a while or finds an unusual strain that produces slightly different effects.

Harold and Kumar comes to mind...

SWIM seems to become giggly and twitchy at the same time after a high dose. His general dosage rule is: one rolling paper for a light, euphoric stone, two rolling papers stuck together for full-blown giggling. This rule has never failed him whenever he wants to feel his sides starting to hurt as a result of laughing at a kettle or something equally mundane, no matter how many times he does it.

*Has never actually happened, thankfully.

yeah, after using everyday, it does go away, it just turns into a very satisfied smile and sense of well being after a while.

[porchy]

SWIM has been smoking cannabis for more than 6 years now (quite heavily) and he doesn't randomly giggle anymore but finds when he smokes with his girlfriend he tends to giggle more, maybe due to the increased happiness when he is with her but sometimes when he is with his friends, if he finds something particularly amusing then he finds it very difficult to stop laughing (i.e freaks of cock - the first time he watched that he laughed so hard he had a nose bleed!).

[purplehaze]

If someone ask just say you were thinking about something really funny that happened earlier in the day.

For Phaze, alot of times this is not entirely untrue, usually thinking about smoking, or something funny is when he gets the giggles. He usually smiles real big when he sees someone he is cool with that isn't high. Not really sure why, but a shit eating grin just gives it all away to swiys friends right lol.

If you need to lose the giggles in a serious situation, think of the consequences of your actions, IE boss finding out your high. Usually that should bring enough unjoy to your life to wipe that smile off. Gotta love RULES.

swim used to get the giggles alot and then it did die down as well, however, after being on 2 weeks holiday in a different state so no smoking, first smoke after and for the next few days swim and swims sister everytime they smoked they got back was fantastic, very much like when they first started smoking, and the giggles turned into fits of laughter, at absoloutley nothing! swim enjoys that kind of high and has decided to take frequent breaks so she can keep doing so..

Neither, in my friends opinion.

He says that set and setting have a lot to do with a drug's effect. Depending on the situation, he still finds himself high once in a while laughing uncontrollably when he's stoned.

Although this happens less frequently than when he started smoking, there is not reason why it won't happen ever again. He started when he was 14, and it 18 years old now.

Perhaps if one were to smoke marijuana more consistently, then it is less likely, because as stated, one becomes accustomed to the feeling. But taking a break for a couple months or so will make one forget almost altogether what it is like to be high.

There is a way to get the giggles again.


Go to a restaurant that makes food by cryogenic or molecular cooking. The tastes are so unreal and out of the ordinary that you will respond by laughter. However; if you go there a lot of times, then your sense of taste will be developed or fucked up enough (a matter of opinion), so that you will no longer giggle about it.

SWIM has never really thought about the taste of food giving giggles. Does SWIY know how SWIM could figure out what these restaurants are?

it depends on who you're with. chillin by yourself, swim has found that he's comfortably numb, while with a couple good friends (who smoke a whole lot more than swim) they'll do things that are just, funny. one person starts laughing, and it starts to plague. if you're losing the giggles, go somewhere different, with possibly different people. swim has found doing something new will add to just about every drug.

This is excellent advice. Many studies have shown that tolerance to the psychoactive effects of drugs is greatly increased in familiar settings. Accordingly, tolerance is drastically decreased in unfamiliar or 'new' settings. Simply, smoking in new places gets swiy higher!

The dinosaur has only a few times gotten the giggles, normally its the case where there'll be something that will set him off, but as soon as he realises he's laughing at something he'll just abruptly stop, occasionally leading to others around him to start laughing. Laughter is more common in groups of people, watch a funny film alone, watch it with someone else and you'll laugh a lot more.

[The Dreamer]

My cat is a huge proponent of tolerance control. He generally focuses on one thing and then moves to another: Salvia, Dagga, Alcohol, Cannabis, Cree, Shrooms, exc. That is a long enough list for anyone to give something a cool down period. My cat finds that in the case of Mary you only have to miss her for a couple of weeks and then its like you're meeting her for the first time all over again. Perhaps that is a bit of an overstatement but my cat almost always gets the giggles. However, he does know for a fact that if you stop for 3 years it will be like starting all over. He did this during a conservative time in his life and found that his tolerance was just about nil.

[cra$h]

yea, the worst thing you can do is over smoke yourself. keeping it to a weekend thing will keep the giggles a hell of a lot longer than someone with a daily routine.

[fiveleggedrat]

Swim became a daily smoker, and regrets it.

His highs were literally 10x better when it was no more than once a week.

However, he uses it as a crutch to stay off opiates, so he won't force himself off the pot.

[Resurrection]

Swin used to smoke every day (sometimes a few times a day) and his highs became very regular, so Swim stooped smoking every day and now he smokes only 3-4 times a month. he finds the highs 10 times better.

[fuckthepolice]

swim thinks it is to do with the strain of weed ... swim stopped laughing around the time of the skunk headlines. since then he has mostly had what seems like indica weed.however once bought a joint of much lighter green weed of a m8s m8 and the feelings came back again from what it was preivous like. energetic`!!! , talkative , giggles , happyness. he miss that weed.

[Destiny_JL]

It depends a lot on who you are with, and the scenario you are smoking with.

SWIM found that like most people on here, most of the early effects of smoking like the giggles, munchies etc started to wear off when he smoked multiple times a day, but discovered that when he smoked with a few close friends who previously never smoked with him before, he had what he would call the giggles.

It is a mild psychedelic so the setting plays a big part in the mental high.

[EscapeDummy]

Ever since SWIM started smoking daily, he's lost the giggles, and a lot of the awesome experiences he used to have while smoking once a week or even less. For example, music is cool while high - but nowhere near the amazing, mindblowing experience it was in the beginning.

Swim would suggest, to all of the future-stoners who haven't started smoking daily, DONT DO IT! You'll get way more high if you skip days, or most ideally, save it for the weekend. Tolerance can be annoying sometimes, lol.

[fiveleggedrat]

Swim lost the giggles after smoking more than once a week.

Overall functionality while impaired increased as well.

[Rhin]

SWIM smokes a lot of weed and still gets a lot of giggles.


Eventually laughing at nothing may stop for some time but you can always find something to laugh your ass off at.

Here's some thing's you could try.


-Tell one of your friends you will give them $20 to eat 7 soda crackers. They will be %100 confident they can do it. (It isn't possible) and they will blow the crackers everywhere it will be hilarious.

-Play hackie sack with a soccer ball, this may sound dumb but some of the funniest stuff happens in a middle of a game. It's more fun if you play it but it's aloud to bounce off the ground between people.

-Go to Youtube and type in "60X salvia" watch the first video. (Hit a Gbong or waterfall before watching this and I guarantee you will be on your ass laughing. This video is funny the first couple times but make sure your super messed up the first time.
