Smoking too much. Don’t feel too “high” anymore

lol this happen to anyone else? Moved to a legal state and I remember back when 10mg candy would make me feel so perfect, now 20mg and a long session on the oil pen barely have me feeling like I used to. Any tips or help ful pointers when you consume a large amount and it becomes more of a chore to get stoned? Lol

Take a week off and check again.

tolerance varies. i made some brownies, aiming for a 250mg ea… my dad had one(first thc in 40 years) and was high for 5 days, fully “OD’ed”. :joy:
i had 2 and barely noticed anything, i inhale almost an 1/8z a day.

if it’s necessary medicine for you, just try some good bubble hash if you can find it.

if it’s just for enjoyment, give yourself a break for 2 weeks.

when i was about 22 i checked myself into rehab because i was consuming a lot of the weed & drinking etc. unconsciously self-medicating, yes, but i still needed a check-in with reality and stayed sober for a good 18 months.

that was almost 20 years ago & since then my health & body are fucked up to be blunt(ed) and it really is medicine to me an a lot of other people.

it’s an awkward moment “proving” to one’s parents that a bong-hit enables one to go :toilet: :poop: because of serious f’ed nerve dmg.

that said, it can be like caffeine in a tolerance-building way, so don’t over-do the dank or anything else.

:peace: & healthiness.

I can even notice a difference after 1 day off. Switching strains can help too.

I’d probably take 2 weeks off. About as long as it takes to start sleeping again without it. Funny, I’ve been a smoker for decades and since Medical then Recreational became legal here I tend to smoke less and less. Don’t get me wrong, I’m super stoked that it’s legal here, but the rebel in me really appreciated the thrill of keeping it all secret. It’s like the wrapper isn’t as shiny anymore lol. Personally, I have never got into the wax or concentrated stuff, probably builds a tolerance pretty quickly.

So much this.
Wifey has quite the tolerance, she was creeping up twoards an ounce a week, I had her make a label for her stash jar that said “1/2 bowls only” and had her do that for a month. After a month, I packed her a big ass bowl and let her have it, the difference was there!

So a week cold turkey will for sure get you at least pointed straight.

This is solid advice too! Seconded.

It was much this way for alcohol for me… 19-20 were very blurry for me, 21 I bought it legally and well, It lost it’s charm lol.

So in closing, @Cocofan
Take a break, or only do enough to treat your ailments, bare minimum. Do this for 2-4 weeks. You’ll have that nostalgic high soon again!

Now that the shiny wrapper on smoking it has worn off, I’ve become obsessed with learning to grow it! It all started with recreation being legal, L.A. County throws almost a 20% tax on my medical weed. It incenses me with every trip to the dispensary. My last feeble attempt at sticking it to the man. :joy: lol

I’d also say that some strains are “easier” to get used to and tolerance is built much quicker. Depends on genetics also…

Grow more, smoke more, and teach tolerance who is boss. Ha! Ha! :grin:

Try a different strain. The one I have (exodus psychosis from a known cuttings source) is one that even after nearly 15 years of daily usage is still as strong and gets me just as high as it ever did.

I would say the problem is not you, it’s the weed :wink:
