I saw somewhere, in multiple places, that it does NOT get you higher to hold it in when you inhale. That goes against everything I've ever heard of. I don't think I know anyone who doesn't hold it in with every hit. Is this common?

After hearing the "don't hold it in" thing, I came up with a theory for why it could be true, yet everyone thinks otherwise.

You hold your breath and you're going longer without more oxygen, or maybe even coughing. Both of those things will make you light headed, or if you're high, it makes you feel REALLY high.

Just my theory.

Honestly, I think this is it. My vape pen gets me faded no matter what. If I hold my breath I’m just a little light headed, too
