Part of the discussion in "thank heavens for PADI" brought a question to my mind, sorry if this has been discussed earlier: are inexperienced divers more likely to encounter narcosis?
Does stress play a role?
The first time I encountered it I was at my 24th dive, first time in the Mediterranean, first dive in warm water since getting certified, nothing scary, just looking at my computer and thinking "oh, I'm at -39, how interesting, I can see the surface!"
