Whether you’re smoking a joint or taking a hit from a pipe, begin with one small puff only. Many people, including myself, don’t experience a high at all for the very first time; in which case, just try again another day.
How to prevent coughing?

- Inhale deeply. This will prevent smoke from getting stuck in your throat, which can cause coughing.

Why do you get higher when you cough?
Since common coughs typically begin with a short, sharp, and deep breath, the sharp inhale taken right before you cough may help expose your lungs to more THC. So while it may not technically be coughing that causes you to get higher, the inhale you take before coughing may help your lungs absorb more THC.
How can I smoke without it hurting?
Inhaling too fast or with a big amount of force will overfill your lungs with smoke and inevitably result in an aching cough. Inhale slowly, and let the smoke fill your lungs gradually for a steady—and less painful—smoke. Remember to exhale as slowly as you inhale, too.
