with the right (small-ish usually) dose, set, and setting it really is a mental performance enhancing drug. increased social performance, introspection, novel ideas, even some memory recall.
does this say something about my neurotype?
My creative process is getting high and thinking of things that make me laugh and then making those things real.
just be careful, it is an addictive substance and dependency on it, while not in the league of alcohol or benzos, is not pretty or fun. im autistic and have smoked for like 10 years, a good portion of the last 5 was severe dependency levels that i justified by saying its self medicating but really it was doing me far more harm than good. it totally rocks if you’re not prone to addiction/are able to manage it though. not meaning to be a buzzkill just a word of warning. glad it’s helping you all the same!
It does nothing to me in small doses, suddenly is completely debilitating when I try to step it up. It only relieved my pain the first time I had it, and ever since it has had a very faint effect on pain. It’s too bad.

Key point here lol
I can’t enjoy weed anymore like I used to. I’m either anxious beyond belief or staring at the wall
it makes me more linguistically perceptive but i also lose all ability to handle humans i don’t know well. “oh thank god i can still understand this material” i say after someone with weed drops by - “oh thank god i don’t just suck at art all the time” I think - and then I sober up and it’s like the cannabinoid insight is gone
also lets me disassociate from my feelings and stuff less, which is generally good. usually.
Yes to the first three for me but after prolonged use it died down after a while and no to the last one my memory goes to shit when I smoke. One of the benefits I noticed from being off it now for two months is I can suddenly remember random shit from years ago now.
weed does nothing to me. i tried it three times
Until you get enough to feel very very sleepy. Exercise is my drug of choice. Well, that and amphetamine.
Being undiagnosed ADHD and from my many years of habitual use I’ve found a small dose does wonders for my focus and concentration, but it’s so easy to go past that and edibles have never done much for me to more precisely work out an ideal dosage that doesn’t leave me too fuzzy.
Pssst. You ever mix your thc flower with cbd flower?
no, why?
i strongly recommend it, it’s become the only way i consume anymore, it feels way more medicinal and rooted in the body AND mind while still retaining the psychoactive effects. i feel way less “hungover” afterwards too if that makes sense. i do a 1:1 or sometimes even 2:1 or 3:1 cbd leaning ratio. i also use a dry herb vape instead of smoking another recommendation you actually taste the terpenes and ingest more % of cannabinoids
There are also cool 1:1 or 1:2 strains out there
