Differing reactions to weed

It depends a lot on dose and on the ratio of active compounds in the cannabis which you are smoking.

More THC and less CBD will have the happy giggly high which you want, and the other way around will produce the sedative effect you described.

Oh and eating something really sugery might help.

OK...I am a very occasional weed smoker, which possibly explains the naivety of this question so I'm sorry if it seems a little dense. I was just wondering if there's any way of guaranteeing what your reaction to smoking weed is. For example, the other week I smoked some with my b/f and we both ended up with the giggles, which was really fun. Other times I have experienced a really warm snuggly feeling...also good. But then today, it's just made me feel really drowsy and like I can't be arsed which is annoying as I'm meant to be going out later and don't feel like it now! Does it just depend on your mood at the time, or surroundings? Is it just the luck of the draw (and no I did not intend that awful pun). Or is it something to do with the type of weed you smoke? Basically I was just wondering if there's anything I can do in the future to ensure I get the giggliness/happiness...or if that's just wishful thinking.

Depends on your mood largely and the surroundings etc...although there isn't much you can do to avoid feeling monged after smoking.

i always find if i just have a few puffs i get quite high, whereas several joints mong me out......that's the problem with me and weed, i always want more........being monged is nice sometimes tho, like at the end of a long day.

Former Member

no there is no way at all.
the same bag of dope ...the same doses everytime ...totaly unpredictable.
the only chance of any semblance of mood altered control ...is to smoke tiny ammounts ...and then some more.

While we're on the topic...

I have a teeny weeny bit of weed that I've had for aaaages, can I just stick it in a bit of (already made) cake and ingest it?

yes.

Former Member

or just (if its green) wrap it in a rizla and swallow.

If its resin try grating it into a fine powder before ingesting. Wouldnt personally reccomend eating Solid but there we go.

I wouldn't actually recommend smoknig solid either, so .

Reactions depend upon YOU, surroundings, mood, have you eaten recently, ammount smoked, etc.

When you smoke alot, you really do get rather monged. Hehe.

And, are either even worth bothering with really? Its worth going to extra price and buying green always, in my opinion.

at the moment thats true only because there is so little real quality solid around but ...top quality resin blows top green away.
trouble is ...few of you have had the pleasure of the best resins available in the world ...resins which used to be widely available as the norm some years back.

Yeah, British green is shit compared to what you can buy in Holland.

It seems us folks in the UK tend to get fobbed off. I've been thinking of making my own resin having read a few online guides, I figure hwne I grab my own flat... Anyone here tried it?

i thought you only get the affects of THC when its heated? (like when you smoke it) - so surely just eating it wouldnt work?

or am i wrong.

ok this is my first post so be nice. :flirt:
i have been smoking dope for 15 years now (every day, about an oz every 8-10 days)
previous to this i have always been around people who smoked it ( mum, dad uncles etc).yes i was a child of the 70's :crazyeyes . one of my first memories is sitting in a room full of smoke with dark side of the moon playing! i think i was about 5. so as far as i was concerned hash had always been and always would be a part of my life until....

a couple of weeks ago the hubby took me to paris, and romantically told me how he didn't want me to die of cancer through smoking Js with no filter. my immediate reaction was " i can get those plastic filters instead of using a roach" he just looked at me. i knew then that i had a bad habit and it was just going to get worse.
so when we got back i went from smoking around 5-6 spliffs a day to just 1 before bedtime. on sunday i smoked the last of my stash. it is now tuesday and i seem to be dealing with it ok. i can sleep at night but i'm having these really vivid freaky dreams!
my hubster gave it up 3 years ago when he started getting these pains in his head every time he got stoned ( every day), and ever since he's been getting on at me to stop.
i was never one of these stoners who got so monged they couldn't function or go out, but if the choice was going to the park with the kids or having a spliff, guess which won.
i don't really know what i'm rabbling on about , but all i do know is that

I REALLY WANT A SPLIFF NOW.!!!

i can't get any where i live cos we only moved here a year ago, and all my new mates are mums at my daughters school, which means to get any i would have to drive a 55 mile round trip, not something i would be able to cover with " i'm just popping to the shops"

i do want to give up, but ..... y'know

Former Member

well if i smoked every day for 15 years i reckon it would be hard to give it up...i practically smoked daily there for 3 years and just ended up getting those sore heads your hubby got...haven't smoked it in a good wee while and yea i get vivid dreams aswell...just think of your health and how much longer you're gonna live now that you're off it...maybe do some exercise or play sport to get your mind of it...but i know...easier said than done...good luck anyway :thumb:

Former Member

Yea i know what you mean aaargh, people say it's not addictive, mentally it certainly is and i'm sure most smokers, even if they used to smoke it would agree with me.

Vivid dreams are another wierd thing, whenever i was on a break i could sleep fine but was having very wierd dreams as well, as vivid as i actually thought i was there.

It gets easier after a while, after the first while you don't think about smoking as much, if you occupy your time with other things it's even easier.

Don't worry, you'll have my pity when i spark this bowl up.

Have a look at the Drugs Board Rules and tell me that arranging to go and engage in illegal activity with another board user doesn't fall in there somewhere. :yeees:

aaargh, you might want to have a look on the Know Cannabis website, they have lots of interactive programmes and tips on what might work for you - good luck with it!
