SWIM has had mates who've smoked weed for years and as a result he's tried it probably 10-15 times. Still, whilst everyone around seems to be having a great time, SWIM always feels rough instantly. Even after one toke on a spliff SWIM's heart beats fast, palms sweat and stomach feels nauseous and head a dizzy mess. Smoking more only worsens this and SWIM feels lethargic and incapable of doing anything. Although after an hour or two it begins to wear off and hunger kicks it, this is by no means the pleasant experience everyone else enjoys.
SWIM wonders if he's doing something wrong. Last night SWIM had a smoke with a couple of mates, had hardly anything and spent a couple of hours feeling awful and looking pretty pale. SWIM just wants to enjoy a smoke like everyone else and giggle about nothing and eat lots of food.
