Is it normal to be scared to smoke weed in case something bad happens while ..

My boyfriend smokes weed every day but I do not. One reason that I don't like to smoke weed is because of how it makes me think too deeply about random thoughts that disturb me.. I'll worry about how everyone might hate me and maybe things I say are annoying to people, or about how maybe I don't see my family enough (even though i see my family once a week).

I get weird "warm" sensations that make me scared I might have accidentally peed myself but just didn't notice because of "being high". I'm scared I'll have to fart and accidentally go number two in my pants because being high wouldn't be able to control it, basically fear of losing control of bowel movements and my bladder, yeah, I know it's stupid.

Also, I am scared to smoke it because what if I got a call that something bad happened? What if something bad/traumatizing happened like a fire started or I saw someone broke a bone? Then it would be so much more intense because I just smoked weed??

What the heck is wrong with me and how can I enjoy smoking weed like others can..

Or is this normal to think about all of these things and worry?

    Some people feel slightly paranoid when smoking weed; yeah, that's normal. It's not normal to continue doing something that makes you feel uncomfortable and that you obviously don't enjoy.

    That's why you fucking smoke it, to relax and not give a shit.

      Yeah pretty much what this guy said, it comes with the territory but it is a very, very safe drug overall that rarely does much damage as far as I know. Plus, this sounds more like something a woman would experience while being high, so maybe I can't really comment but I can say that it is possible to get paranoid, weird, and experience uncomfortable feelings while high that are of an amplified nature. However, if this bothers you simply stop smoking. Nothing more to say on this one. I'm also not saying that women can't handle pot because there are probably plenty of men who cannot handle it either. Just that men who can't handle it have different problems while high. For instance, male stoned paranoia is more about the cops and the government and stuff whereas for women it's more stuff like this. Also, it sounds as though you have a fear of insanity which is not really healthy. Personally, I think insanity is very misunderstood and in some way might be a good thing in the world

    Weed will not make you lose control of bowels/bladder no matter how fucked up you get. Also, the whole thing about worrying if people hate you, etc. is just a paranoid high, nothing there really to worry about. If you can realize that these are things that you are becoming paranoid about, you'll be able to enjoy the high. As far as something traumatic happening while high, don't worry too much about it. If some truly horrific thing happened while high it probably would be a bit harder to get over it than if it happened while sober, but that shouldn't keep anyone from not smoking because I can assure you that even if some horrendous thing happened you still would ultimately get over it as long as you believed you would, regardless of what you were smoking at the time. Plus, how many times have you been in a fire or seen somebody break a bone? Not many, so what's the chance that it would happen while high? Not very big at all.

    It's not that I want to smoke it "to be cool". I want to achieve the calming, relaxing effect that others seem to get from smoking it. There have been a handful of times (including the first time I ever tried it) where I thoroughly enjoyed it and felt "lifted" and a feeling like I've never had since.

    I will rarely actually smoke it when my boyfriend does due to the fact that it does make me so paranoid. I am anxious by nature too so maybe weed will never relax me again, as it is bringing out my deep feelings. Ugh.. oh well. Not for everyone I guess haha :)

    Don't smoke it unless you want to relax or want to. Otherwise don't do it.
