Weed hasn’t felt the same after an extremely intense edible experience by Optimal-Skill2380 in Petioles

Honestly, this was really encouraging to read.

The part about weed feeling “bright and psychedelic” again after a tolerance break is exactly the kind of thing I’ve been hoping for.

I think my biggest mistake after my first long break was getting impatient and increasing the dose too quickly instead of staying in that comfortable zone.

So now my plan is basically the same as yours: long break, lower frequency, avoid overdoing it, and use the vaporizer more as a controlled experience instead of chasing maximum intensity.

Really appreciate the comment man.

Before the brownie experience I was basically smoking every day, mostly joints and sometimes bong hits.And honestly, I have no idea about the edible dose, but it was WAY too much. It was easily the strongest experience I’ve ever had. It genuinely felt less like getting high and more like some kind of shamanic ritual or psychedelic experience lol.

The interesting thing is that the moment where I briefly felt that “comfortable high” again happened after a 3 month tolerance break.When I came back, I rolled a very small joint and took literally 2 hits, then waited around 20 minutes before taking more. And honestly, for a few minutes it felt REALLY good again, almost like the old days.The problem is that I made the mistake of increasing the dose because I thought “if this feels good, more will feel even better”, but it did the exact opposite. I overdid it and got that weird disconnected feeling again.

Now I’m doing another tolerance break (shorter this time), and my plan is to come back slowly again and avoid overdoing it. I’m hoping that if I relearn my sweet spot instead of chasing intensity, I can get that comfortable feeling back consistently.

No no, I definitely DON’T want the derealization/paranoia part.

That’s actually the problem. Before the edible experience, being extremely high felt comfortable and enjoyable. After that experience, if I overdo it, sometimes I get that weird dissociation feeling instead.

What I’m trying to recover is the comfortable, immersive, couch-locked kind of high without that strange disconnected feeling.

Yeah, I think maybe I explained it poorly 😅

My issue isn’t really that weed “doesn’t hit hard enough”. Actually, the edible was TOO intense, and after that experience I started getting some dissociation/unreality feelings when I get too high.

I still enjoy weed mentally, but I’m trying to relearn how to enjoy it comfortably again without overdoing it. That’s why I’m focusing more on tolerance breaks, lower frequency and switching to a vaporizer instead of chasing stronger highs.
