    In what manner are you consuming it?\

    If it’s flower being used, I’d recommend trying to check the trichomes to see if you’re getting early chops. Most flower on the black market is chopped before the trichs are able to go all milky, which can cause things like anxiety to spike.

      It’s not illegal where I live, you can get good quality weed from reputable sources, but it just messes with me. Weed was fine with me up until my early 20s, but then it changed somehow. I’d only smoke the occasional joint every two months or so.

        Your body and brain chemistry undergoes various changes over time, it could just be that it’s no longer compatible with you. This has happened with a few buddies of mine, they’re just no longer into it as it now either makes them go to sleep, or gives them anxiety symptoms.
        Many people still think cannabis is THE thing for everyone, but at the end of the day it’s still a drug which can affect each of us differently.

        If you’ve already tried different strains and genetic lineages, and still have the same result, it may be something to consider.

        Your describing THC overdose btw. Weed has become stronger and if you were happy with 12% but now all you can find is 20-30%. You only need to smoke 1/2 or 1/3 as much. Source medical patient and THC dependant.

        Or to put this in other terms, if you used to drink nothing but light beer and then switch to ipas you will find that you get drunk way too easy and it’s not as enjoyable.

          Not necessarily. I’m same as OP, happened also in my 20s (a long damn time ago).

          I broke my collar bone a couple of years ago, and when I ran out of pain meds, I would smoke a bit of hash. As in one max two hits on a hash spliff.

          The hash helped with the pain for sure, but every single minute I had to do full on mindfulness. Walking to the store about to freak out then reminded my brain “hey that’s ok but we are walking now; go back to paying attention to you feet and arms.”

          I’ve tried smoking recreationally throughout the years. In the past 25 years I’ve had a good experience exactly once, and Io am convinced it was because the circumstances were literally perfect for me, mentally and physically.

          So yeah even with tiny doses of different strains, it just turned on my and stayed turned. And it sucks, yes.
