My local head shop is going out of business. I'm not sure why, but I dont think two times 75mg is 1,500mg.

More evidence that stoners should not be accountants.

Also I was amused by the menagerie working there.
The owner looks exactly like a 5 foot Jerry Garcia.
The cashier is 80 years old and seems like she'd be happier knitting cat sweaters but in reality smokes more than all the rest of them combined.
They have a cute brunette with a torn Metallica t-shirt.
An asian kid who appears to be quite angry all the time and I think we all know why he needs to smoke.
And of course a 7 foot hipster with more hair than a mammoth and 1 percent body fat.

Delta-8, a legal form of THC, is sold across the country. Some states want to change that.

The psychoactive compound found in the cannabis plant is unregulated at the federal level, thanks to a loophole in the 2018 farm bill.

Sounds like a fun place lol.

 

[shortylickens]

Its just as well. I am now at the point where I need a minimum of 200 milligrams before I feel anything.
First time?
25mg.
Second time?
Nothing. I go all the way up to 75 before I even feel it.
Third time?
Way way way more than 100mg.

This is not sustainable.

Fixed.

Seriously.... that's why I usually stay away from stuff like edibles and tinctures or edible oils.

Sure they get you totally wasted at first but they also make smoking barely even work to get you high anymore due to the massive tolerance you build up.

Also it's WAY too easy for a person who never uses weed to "OD" and have to endure several hours of screaming paranoia. To be fair this can happen from smoking/dabbing too but it wears off in like 20-30 minutes max.

Someone who doesn't get high often and who has no/little experience with edibles should start with 10mg's (at most!) and then WAIT like 2 hours before taking more!

Lay off a while, a good while and 25mg will knock your socks off again. Jess sayin'.

What's the deal with the Delta-8 stuff? It's like "bud light" right? It's not the same as the stuff you would get in a west coast head shop correct?

I tried some of it recently and 1 gummy rocks my world but I'm a lightweight. I'm thinking about ordering some online and self medicating with it instead of alcohol. I live in an apartment building so smoking is not an option.

No idea if I can get a real medical marijuana card unless they have ptsd on my record. Apparently having anxiety isn't good enough to get a card in this backwards ass red state.

 

[Captante]

Anxiety isn't qualified for a med-card in Connecticut either but getting an official PTSD diagnosis should be easy. (especially if you already had one in the past)

I had laid off 6 months but thanks so much for your advice.

Some people just don't process edibles well for whatever reason, if you took a six month t-break and 25mg+ of THC doesn't do anything for you, you may be one of them.
Assuming these are actual THC edibles and not the prohibition-state equivalent.

I would barely even notice 25mg's myself at this point and 10mg's I wouldn't notice at all! (with the possible exception of when it's in a beverage for some reason... maybe it absorbs faster?)

Before I 99% gave up edible concentrates after the end of "lockdown", I was fully capable of downing an entire bottle of of primo dispensary "tincture" containing 700-800 mg's of THC-a in a single sitting with no ill-effect.

It got so out of hand it pretty much ruined doing bong hits for me!

Think of whom you're conversing with!

Point being NOTHING is going to "help" the OP in this case!

Yeah, I don't have a handle on the poster. Lots of off the wall stuff but I'm with the anti-Republican stance 100%. Has issues, obviously, but exactly what, I have no idea. Except, I guess, some serious drug dependency, also hard-ass bad attitudes about money. Hey, I was dirt poor a long long time, I had calluses on my determination to make it. I inherited some money, but I'm still one of the best at pinching pennies when I feel like it. Serious cred.
