Never felt anything like it, but it brought me back to how I was in my childhood and I could even play more video games and enjoy myself more.

Like, damn.

Just one edible, I took. Sativa. Peach-flavored. From Beyond / Hello.

Before that, I took half of an edible.

I was relaxed and my head was swimming, but I felt in control.

I had to lie down at first, though, but I wasn’t worried.

My interoception (feeling your own body) was on fire though.

    So do it once a month at best? Or don’t get “high” more than once a month?

    Gotcha.

    And yeah, this was an edible, though I felt in control.

      Everyone’s different. I share a bowl with my wife every night while we are winding down before bed. Haven’t had any negative side effects.

      When I was in my twenties, I was a much heavier smoker. I was deeply unhappy with my circumstances, and used it as a way to shut my brain off after work or on weekends. The worst side effect there was hanging out with people I shouldn’t have, and spending too much money on it. Now, it’s cheap and everywhere.

        Oh.

        Honestly, that’s a good point, and you seem well-adjusted and a good person and even better than you were before. I’ll make note of that. Honestly, a lot of conflicting advice in this thread. I should just settle for what works for me, personally.

      I would say just don’t do it more than once a month, assuming you’re referring to weed-adjacent stuff that mellows you out but doesn’t get you high like the CBD-infused-everything-under-the-sun products. Idk it’s a shifty thing. Not addictive in a chemical sense but all too easy to integrate into your daily life. Then your baseline resets and non-medicated existence seems anxiety-inducing and dull.
