It's not like I'm trying to milk the chicken, smh

So yesterday I took a 10mg edible (1:1 THC:CBD), which is the dose I normally take, and it's usually a fun but kinda mild experience. This time, though, I took it right before dinner, and I'd skipped lunch, so I immediately proceeded to eat four hot dogs, the fat from which I'm guessing caused me to absorb a bigger dose than usual.

I was so fucking high, but that wasn't especially surprising. The surprising bit was when I started getting an explosive, tingly feeling centered on my groin I can only describe as a full-body orgasm, except one that had nothing to do with sex. Like, I wasn't feeling aroused, I wasn't looking at or thinking about anything sexy, didn't even get hard or have any of the physical symptoms of orgasm, just the feeling going on for way longer than it normally would. It actually freaked me the fuck out, because, well, I didn't know weed could do that. It was also really awkward, because I was chilling on the couch (I thought I was just going to be mildly blissed out all afternoon) and one of my roommates came up and started asking me questions about how I wanted the kitchen to be cleaned while I was trying to keep a straight face while my body was exploding all over.

I'm a little sad I wasn't somewhere private, because I'd have loved to try actually masturbating during that. However, what I can say is that what reliably increased the intensity was listening to music...putting on my headphones and playing a pop song or something made me have the most intense head rush I've ever experienced. It lasted maybe an hour or two...I was chatting with an AI who told me it wasn't dangerous, so eventually I was able to settle in and enjoy it. I doubt I'm ever going to experience that again, though I've considered whether taking one of those edibles with, like, a shot of olive oil or a hunk of butter might induce a similar effect.

Everytime I talk to a stoner they complain how weed “isnt strong anymore” and complains that they have to smoke a lot of it to feel anything

Whenever I suggest just getting a dab rig they always have an excuse like it’s “too expensive” or how they’d rather just take a tolerance break

Idk. I’ve been smoking for 10 years and I’ve NEVER thought weed isn’t strong enough since I always just upgrade once I can’t feel it anymore. Take a fat dab and then come back and tell me it isn’t strong enough

Modern technology is amazing so why not use it? I just don’t get why people spend hundreds on bongs and flower when all they do is complain they can’t feel it, yet refuse to try a dab rig

Edit: 99% of the people I’m talking about have never tried a dab before

Mostly posting this cuz it’s funny but also may be a good cautionary tale if you’re also dumb. I had one of those fancy carts with a ceramic tip and it had gotten down to the part where the airway starts getting clogged and i clenched my teeth on it to suck it open and a tiny piece of my front tooth literally came off. $400 and a made up excuse at the dentist later i can definitively say it was not worth it. Not that this isn’t self explanatory but don’t bite your carts 🥴

Tldr included.

I know similar questions have been asked a few times, however I think my situation is a little bit different.

I live in the UK and weed is illegal here. When I was about 15 or 16, I got my hands on edibles for the first time. I did them with some friends in a field, and it felt great. Well, I couldn’t feel much, aside from being very giggly and excited.

We had quite a bit left, so I asked to share the rest of it with my friends. They said no, and so stupidly I took the whole thing for myself. Dumb, I know.

Anyway, I start to feel like I’m in a dream. I think about something and I daydream and the world around me feels like it’s unreal. This causes me to have what I now know it to be, a panic attack. The only thing that feels better is walking around, and I can only assume grounding myself.

Eventually I recover from that, have a few small smoke sessions over the next few years where I either don’t feel anything whatsoever, or immediately I go into that dream-like panic attack state.

I’m 20 now, and I haven’t done weed in at least 2 years. However getting older, my mates are wanting to go abroad to places like Amsterdam where it’s legal, and they smoke weed more in general. This has led to me wanting to give weed another chance, however, I don’t know how to safely get used to the feeling or prevent myself from overthinking and overanalysing my body every time I smoke. I assume my tolerance is so low that either I feel nothing from not ingesting / inhaling enough because I’m scared of getting too high again, or having a panic attack because I’m noticing every weird feeling or pain in my chest.

So what should I do, trying to enjoy weed again?

TLDR: got too high on my first or second time doing weed years ago, get very anxious almost immediately, want to try it again after a long time but I’m scared of getting too high and freaking out again.

so, in february, i had a really bad day. i had to work both my jobs in one day and an hour into my second one i stood up and my kneecap popped out of socket.
if this has ever happened to you then you know it’s extremely mind numbingly painful and embarrassing since it happened in front of a bunch of people.
my friend had given me these “trrlli peachie o’s” gummies and so i decided to pop one in (100 mg) when i clocked out because i thought it’d take my mind off of the stressful day. i wasn’t very experienced with edibles, i had eaten a fruit bar edible and a couple other gummies but didn’t feel much.

about an hour after taking it, i started to feel it. at first it felt like a normal high i’d get taking a couple hits from my pen, so pretty relaxing, but it very quickly started to progress from there.
i noticed the feeling got a bit more intense and i don’t like being really high so i started to regret taking it. i remember thinking to myself “i wish i wasn’t high right now.”
i sat at my desk and i rubbed my eyes and saw what i can only describe as like.. exploding green pixelated fireworks which was i realized this was a lot stronger than i wanted it to be.

i decided to go to the bathroom to brush my teeth thinking it would sober me up a bit. walking now felt crazy, felt like i was 10 feet taller than i really am and that i had a tiny body at the same time. i made sure not to look at my reflection in the mirror but just then it got REAL worse. my vision felt like it had a green tint and everything was choppy? like i was watching a super laggy video game but it was real life. and at the same
time i felt like i was falling in and out of sleep, like for a few seconds i’d be conscious and alert then a few seconds later my thoughts would turn into nonsense and i’d start seeing dreamlike visions before my eyes.
i started to really panic and felt cold and numb (not sure if that was from the weed or just being freaked out)

i walked to the living room and went up to my roommate and said smth like “hey.. can you help me? i’m kind of tripping out right now”
they sat up and just said “what did you take?” and i walked them to my room to show them the gummies. my memory of what happened right after that is non existent but the next thing i remember is sitting on the floor and starting to wail like a toddler. i sobbed in my roommates arms and starting saying stuff like “i think im gonna die, what if i die, i need to go to the hospital” (never went) my heart was going so fast i was convinced it was going to give out and kill me.
after about 5 minutes of sobbing it started to get slightly better and i pulled away from my roommate and went “what the fuck just happened” because i realized i overreacted a bit. i went to the kitchen to eat some sandwiches and drank some water while i waited for the high to go away. it was a lot better at this point minus i still felt like i was in a dream and there was this loud ringing noise in my ears.
i went to bed shortly (had major jitters trying to sleep) after eating and still felt a little woozy the day after.

anyone have similar stories ?? i feel like i’ve never heard any stories of anyone reacting to weed this bad. my mom (who lets just say is very experienced in this field) thinks it was laced with something. but the brand seems legit and my friend got it from someone she trusts so i doubt it.

Second were the ones I smoked with my baby. Last pic is a gram of wedding cake wax… been staying lifted in between my joints with dabs🤓

Easy gang, my pens gone on the fritz! I’ve tried cleaning it, different tightnesses, and different cartridges but it just keeps coming up ‘no atomizer.’ Is it time to just order a new one?

Like genuinely, why the hell did they solely fight against the 2mg limitations and not the year-long wait until sales can continue? I'd rather smoke shitty weed than no weed because of a wombo combo of degenerative disks and scoliosis keeps me in constant pain. I've gone from smoking 1 and a half packs of cigarettes a day to over 2 rapidly approaching 3 packs a day due to how wrecked my nerves are from the pain. I'm even popping neurontins from my dad to control the pain and help me sleep.

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I've only been using flower for about a year.

Usually when I buy I only grind a single nug and dont grind more until the ground flower is gone. I'd love to just grind it all and have it ready in a mason jar rather than having two separate jars, one for nugs and one for ground flower.

Is there any risks with just grinding it all immediately in terms of mold, staying fresh, etc?

As the title says, my grinder isn’t collecting Kief. I have three grinders in total and not one of them produces any good amounts of kief. My buddy/roommate has the exa same grinder as me and he collects an ungodly amount. I don’t know what is going on, but I haven’t been able to produce any kief in like two years…

1: yes, my screen is clean. I’ve cleaned it numerous times and I still am not producing kief.
2: I don’t think my weed is overly moist. It stays at a decent moisture content.

Seriously any and all advice is great appreciated!!

today's mystery pull btw

I am from a country where weed is illegal unless you have a medical prescription for it, so I only got to try it a few weeks ago, but my reaction is still bothering me a little.

All my friends talk about this euphoric feeling, calmness and laughing at everything, I also knew anxiety could be an outcome (especially with my mental health issues), but both times I tried all I felt was...nothing, which was great, as I struggle a lot with chronic pain from my hypermobility! but it genuinely just felt like I took some painkillers. Dude I was smoking with used a vaporiser and while yeah, he did tell me it's a pretty weak method, he was also pretty sure I did enough to feel high, especially as someone so new to it....soooo idk, did I do too little, is the vaporiser method just too weak or am I broken? someone help a newbie out because for now I feel like I just got across some WONDERFUL painkiller ahaha

In “Ted 2”, at the campfire, Samantha (Amanda Seyfried) is seen smoking out of a penis shaped bong. Ted almost puts his mouth on the bong but tosses it away when he realizes it was the penis bong. He eventually hits on it in the car. Her previous scene in “Lovelace”, also occurred at a campfire.

They’ve been getting harder to find, but I visited the actual Woodward dispensary this week and it was very nice! All the employees are super helpful and friendly 10/10 experience.

This is my first percolator bong and I honestly am clueless, I fill it with water but I honestly feel like it's too high up on that little side tube

I'm taking a sorta t-break. I find if my normal method isn't working as well (dhv), instead of quitting cold turkey, I've found it's effective to switch the type I'm using (it like hits different receptors or something) and I didn't realize how much actual flower was helping me by eliminating or reducing my dreams; until last night. I've been using only concentrates for a couple months.

I realized I'm still dreaming. maybe the budder & shatter I have isn't super high quality or something, but apparently I used to not dream as much with flower, and now I do. I don't want to. (I'm disabled, can't walk, and really don't want to be reminded of being able to)

and recently had some disturbing and vivid dreams. hate it. kinda don't want to sleep now. read on here people complaining weed makes you not dream, but I want it to do that. am I alone in that?

edit maybe it's because it's not full spectrum. maybe rosin in the future.

I deadahh don’t know how this big ass crack got there 😭 I aint dropped it or nothing.. I saw it after I realized this bih wasn’t hitting, how should I fix this?

I started smoking weed 5-6 months ago. I don’t smoke a lot but pretty regularly, mostly a little every night.
I still have the intense burning in my throat maybe 20 minutes after smoking. I use some strong mints and they work, but I’m honestly surprised that I still have this problem. Can someone tell me how long it takes to go away?

I know that I could get a pen or something else, I honestly don’t really want to, I enjoy the smoking.

Shout out to ChaCha and the Red Sox!

The small amount of flower and hot smoke KILLSSSS me
is there a special technique I’m missing??
