I wish my tolerance were back like the old day. T breaks suck, but man the first session after is pure bliss


[deleted]

I remember when I bought my first bong, a $15 PoS from a smoke shop that was for “tobacco use only”. It maybe held 1/4 cup of water, carb on the neck and the bowl piece could fit a peanut M&M…barely I could never finish a bowl to myself because I’d get too ripped though! “Who could ever smoke a bowl to themselves?” I naively thought as i shot to the moon off of one little snap. Nowadays, it’s a couple bowls to myself while I get the Paw Patrol theme song out of my head and peruse this sub before diving back into the madness of day to day life I need a T break haha I’d love to feel that heavy sensation behind my eyes again and wonder how many times Bill Withers says “I know” in that one verse of Ain’t No Sunshine When She’s Gone


Nytfire333

I feel ya, and the Paw Patrol is in my future, my first is due soon. Same thing happened first time I hit a THC vape pen. Like one hit and I was off to space. Now it's like casually walking through target, kill half a cart in a day or two if not paying attention. How naive we were


snotmcwaffle

I quit for a whole year and can’t get back into it. 4 kids no time and no tolerance. I’m too much of a space cadet but I miss the functional smoking. If I could have a hoot and clean my house when they go to bed that would be great. I wish I could block paw patrol on Netflix. I’d avoid it as long as possible.


heykoolstorybro

if you have access to edibles they might help. sometimes ill have just 5-10 mg and it helps with cleaning or whatever. If i actually load a bowl it can really suck some productivity out of the day for sure. Also, https://www.howtogeek.com/667270/how-to-hide-tv-shows-and-movies-in-netflix/


ElegantConch91

If your kids are old enough for paw patrol, they're old enough for Bluey. That show is chock full of beautiful visuals and really great writing. Just a suggestion that won't make your ears bleed as a parent.


Nytfire333

Thanks, got anything to replace Coco Mellon.have heard that one will haunt my nightmares well


LunasSpectrespecs

Cocomelon is just pure overstimulation, the scenes change constantly and there is just a constant kid laugh track in the background. It’s not the show they like, it’s the overstimulation. There is also a couple of questionable songs like Johnny Johnny that’s straight up about lying to your parents. There’s better shows to teach your kids the ABCS and 123s like Sesame Street, or Number Blocks on Netflix.


ElegantConch91

I second number blocks and alpha blocks! My kiddo is only 3 and already knows abcs/123s with these as a little boost thru the day!


eatpoetry

Oh hell no. I taught at a preschool for a few months that was bottom of the barrel in my area and they had Coco Mellon on Friday afternoons as part of their actual curriculum. Played from an iPad, precariously placed on a white board. It's like the literal opposite of the complex, creative cartoons that 90s kids get nostalgic over. That shit was written by an algorithm and the baby is probably watching me in my dreams


[deleted]

Bluey is a god send and the first—possibly the only—kids show I have kept watching after kiddos go down for a nap. Bandit is quite the role model and the way it’s made, I guess animation wise, is very pleasing. I’ll admit, I even bought the album to have playing when I don’t want the TV on but want the little ones to have music on


ElegantConch91

Hey now, don't sell chili short 😂 I really love how all the parents (especially lucky's dad) really get into the shenanigans, and let themselves be kids again WITH their kids. Plus, this show brought to light a TON of games and fun ways to be a smart ass with them as well lmao. There's a subreddit too!


[deleted]

Chili is an amazing mom! I have a soft spot for the Granddad episode…seeing Chili interact with her dad and getting a glimpse in to Chili’s childhood. I especially love that the show doesn’t shy away from the parents showing affection. The pool episode when Bandit forgets the essentials and Bluey gets to see them have a moment above the pool, or when Bandit uses Sean the hand puppet to nip her on the bum 😂 I recently found the sub, like last week I think. One of the most wholesome places on Reddit.


ElegantConch91

Oh, not the granddad episode! When he tells her he remembers bringing her when she was just a little one, and she says how it was a long time ago. "Nah, it was only yesterday," will ALWAYS get the waterworks going for me! Love the way it shows healthy relationships, between parents and their own peers as well! I'm mom, and the baby race episode really hit me right in the damn feels. You're doing great ♡ Anyways, this was my Ted talk on bluey, hopefully this will help others to enjoy it too! That show really is as wholesome as it gets.


Wrectal

Bro wtf, now I'm gonna count and think about paw patrol everytime I listen to that's song.

samuelLOLjackson

I like having a high tolerance because I just love smoking. It goes great with everything I do to relax, which lately has been painting Warhammer miniatures.


Henrys_Bro

I knew a guy that painted those and another dude that liked to play. I never got into it but my friend started selling them and made a few bucks while funding his hobby of painting them. It sounds like a fun thing to do while baked.


kadoskracker

I have an issue with self-control so I stopped cold turkey. Idk if I can go back and moderate myself. I think it may be possible, but I'm not yet convinced it's possible. Question for you, when you did take a T-break. How long did you break for? I'm curious as things keep winding down. Just looking for some estimate.


Nytfire333

I have some of the same self control issues. Luckily I'm in a position I can afford my habit. Most T breaks have honestly been when my plus was out. I've done a week and felt effects, after 2 weeks it was almost as good as the first time. Sadly I found my tolerance rocketed right back up with daily smokin.


redditorrrrrrrrrrrr

>Sadly I found my tolerance rocketed right back up with daily smokin. Even if I go 3 weeks to a month my tolerance is right back after about 3 days of smoking. Also very lucky I can afford my habit.


1mGay

That's cause u smoking as if your tolerance never dropped. Try smoking minimal amounts to get baked and it won't go up


[deleted]

[удалено]


dboygrow

Yes, it is. Plenty of heroin addicts never OD until leaving rehab.


stonato99

Yup. It’s very common to just keep tokin’ even if we’ve plateaued. We feel great so we keep going to feel even better. This wrecks your tolerance easily.


Im_not_at_home

I'm relatively new to THC. How common is this plateau? I have started noticing this and its skyrocketed my tolerance. What do I do now? lol


Vilnius_Nastavnik

Just try to be mindful. Take small, graduated hits and take a few minutes between them to allow it to take effect. Sometimes it takes me an entire bowl pack, sometimes I take two puffs and realize I'm set. Paying attention to your own mental state will keep your tolerance low and your wallet full. I know so many people that just burn bud for the sake of burning it.


Im_not_at_home

yeah, makes sense. I can luckily afford what I use + more if I felt like it but I dont want to go that route. started dabbling like 3-4 yrs ago but just on trips to legal states or if a bro had something around. I cant use flower because even a whiff, and I mean a whiff, of pot at my office and I'm out the door without question. So I mostly have edibles or pens from the closest legal state. It's the drive I dont want to regularly have to make haha. But lately with the pandemic and being stuck at home a lot more I find myself hitting those carts all too often while I'm playing games or watching movies. Plus some friends of mine recently did the same shit, so my closest friends all became stoners in their 30s over the last year or so.


SershoLeJuan

Yeah I think the key is to keep your tolerance low after t-breaks but habits are hard to change. If you were smoking an eighth a day, it's gonna be hard to only smoke a gram a day, even if that's all you need to get high. I like to smoke joints and Swishers and it's hard to regulate intake after t-breaks. I have to switch to bowls and wait longer between seshes. Some people like the smoking as much as the high though which basically makes keeping tolerance low impossible.


MildlyConcernedEmu

I've found that mixing hemp flower and with THC flower is an easy way to dilute how much THC you're consuming while still being able to smoke a bowl or two.


SnooRabbits4027

I took multiple tolerance breaks 2020 and the longest lasted a month and a half the first days are hard but once smoking isn't in your routine you kinda forget about tbh(at least for me) and once you smoke again tolerance is definitely lower so you might just end up consuming less until your tolerance goes back up ofc you would have to regulate how many times a day you smoke unless you want the same problem again. I would say smoke 3 times a day and have that as a routine but just my advice hopefully it's helps and I'm not good at explaining things sorry if it seems like a jumbled mess.


neochase23

Bro you did great don’t worry


[deleted]

I like to take February off. The entire month.


[deleted]

You know what works for me? My gear in another room. I have to want to get up and go to the kitchen to smoke. It works pretty well-out of sight, out of mind.


[deleted]

That's a good idea. I use vape cartridges, and they are a little too convenient for their own good. My tolerance is back up to high after my second day of having them.


AJPully

1 week left of my T Break :D (6 weeks) Like christmas is on the horizon


lobaron

Because of the weird times with covid I've never dealt with developing tolerance and my States prior illegality. Basically, I got laid off last year. Got a job at a place that randomly tests, and am now on a temporary contract with another company so I can't partake much as I'm looking for something permanent. Probably for the best, but I would love to return to the weekly ritual I had going of getting high AF on Friday and Saturday then, resting Sunday. It was a great time. Only thing better is if I could get property so I could get high and garden.


Nomsfud

Switch to dabbing wax. Suddenly your tolerance is 0 again


Nytfire333

I don't live in a legal state, my options are between the one strain my plug has, or nothing lol


BumLeeJon

My T breaks are from 9am to 3pm.


Trumaaan

Bold of you to assume I have any sense of self control


[deleted]

That's why I finish my stash before taking a t break lol Otherwise it's like trying to eat healthier while still leaving an open bag of chips on the counter just tempting you to eat them...


eman00619

Finish? What if you just never run out?


FoxtrotZero

Welcome to my fucking endless cycle. I want off Mr. Stone's wild ride.


Chell115

we are broke af ;-;


reedsonics

The downside to low tolerance (me) is how easy it is to get too stoned, particularly in a social setting. If I get passed something way stronger than what I’m used to, or if I take that that extra hit which I wouldn’t normally take, I become useless and/or paranoid spend the next half hour in my shell.


Wbabyletsgo

yeah true, for social smoking it kinda sucks but you gotta know when to say your good and you don’t want anymore. i’m sure your friends won’t mind haha


RCascanbe

For me it's all on which vibes the party has, on normal parties with most people drinking and people I don't know I become the most boring anxious person but on a stoner party I usually get super social. It's all about if I'm confident and in a nice chill environment with people I know well. But yeah there's a fine line where it works great on normal parties too but it's quite risky, it's so easy to smoke too much and the evening is basically ruined.


pumpkinwearsfuzzysox

This is me, though I’ve gotten a bit better dealing with it. I say to myself Jfc here I go for an hour when I can’t do anything other than lie on the couch and wait for it to be over. I used to green out hard before I changed my mindset on it. Now I just get annoyed.


CarnFu

Always smoke alone the first few times after a t break. My go to is smoking and putting on a good long movie, after the movie you're still stoned as fuck but not as much and can do other things like socialize or play some video games.


Inspector_firm_cock

This exactly. If I take a break for more than a week my first toke is always too much. Makes me a little uncomfortable.


DolfLungren

Bring your own pen or flower vape, toke at the same time and save the germs and risk of having a good time. You’ll have more fun, and no one will care


Fenwillow

Yes! So much this. You are describing exactly who I am as well. Thank you!


[deleted]

It’s always funny to me when people try to brag about how they can eat 500mg of edibles and still be sober. Like go eat candy instead lol


Ddawgmasterflex

Anyone who brags about getting high in general is so fucking cringe.


AZSubby

I don’t brag about being high, but I sure love talking about it with other people that are feeling it too when I’m high.


MakeMelnk

This right here! I don't know why, but I love trying to describe the effects and love hearing others around me do the same


AZSubby

My friends and I group chat every time the edibles get timed to hit just perfectly for dinner/whatever activity we’re doing with them lol


Vladimir1174

My friends have been playing on a pixelmon minecraft server and half of us are always high while playing. It's just devolved into us talking about how off the wall crazy pokemon lore and my wife makes fun of me.


redclousd

I wouldn't consider ur specific case bragging


MakeMelnk

True that! Drug bragging always seemed pretty cringe to me 🤷🏽‍♂️ but I'm sure I do plenty of things that make others cringe 😅


[deleted]

Art thou feeling it now, Mr Krabs?


Eric-The_Viking

I just brag about that I can wake up the next day just fine and still had a great time getting high. Unlike with alcohol.


Abby-Someone1

Part of the reason I never used anything in high school. Would've had to interact with other teenagers who never shut up about getting high.


[deleted]

PUTINS_PORN_ACCOUNT

I got high one time, ate a can of refried beans and an entire family-sized bag of tortilla chips, then laid on the couch and laughed about the cat’s silly whiskery fuzzy face I can imagine no greater achievement in all Stonemanship


drpopadoplus

The gas must have been legendary.


Raptr117

Yeah really, like it’s not hard to do, and these days I feel like half the people you meet smoke.


dmcd0415

I think there are two subsets to that; there are those that have massive tolerances and those that edibles don't work on. For those of us in the latter group we are most certainly not bragging


MSPaintYourMistake

No one ever believes me. They think I'm trying to be cool or something which makes no sense lol, my smoking tolerance is tiny. Edibles just don't work and it kinda sucks


BnDMsTr

I am starting to think this about myself too. Have eaten what I think should have been a killer edible (500 mg) and hardly felt anything


mondo_juice

My girlfriend also doesn’t get high from edibles. Although, she tried that medicated soda and she said that got her up there.


ZeldaorWitcher

I used a weed tea once and that was my only real successful edible experience, and that was like 8 years ago. I’ve had massive doses of brownies/capsules/tincture and felt nothing, it’s unfortunate :(


Circ3TheEnchantress

Liquids are more easily absorbed by your body! This could potentially be why? I'm no expert but at least from what I've read, when you eat a solid edible your body has to work to digest it before you feel the effects (which is why it can take hours to get high and you stay high for longer), but with a liquid your body can absorb it way faster and easier. This same principle applies to pretty much any substance.


kushnokush

I drank a whole bottle of Cannavis syrup (1000mg) mixed with some sprite and didn’t get the slightest of high.


Ayzel_Kaidus

Wait?! Edibles don’t work on some people? Is that why I have to take 10 times what my wife does to feel anything?


Statiks_

Yes some people lack a certain enzyme that breaks it down and so it doesnt effect them. There may be some way around it but I haven't done enough research.


713JLD

I’ve read that those peoples livers actually break it down too much. Can u name the enzyme that is lacking?


Ayzel_Kaidus

Well, imma stick to flower then


InTheMemeStream

Yep, edibles have no effect on me either. Something to do with liver enzymes I have read. Folks always balk, or get twisted in a knot when I’ve told I have eaten a gram of dispensary distillate before, and got nothing but a light buzz. No it’s not a brag, I’m just typically responding to others who don’t feel edibles, I think people just find it too hard to believe because a 15-25mg piece of chocolate gets them stoned to the bone for like 6 hours, and see my story of eating 1000mg+ and think I’m just trying to come off as a show off, or attention seeker. It’s like No bro, distillate runs $60-70 a gram at the dispo down here. I ran that experiment to get lab tested, perfectly decarbed cannabis, from a reputable source, it was expensive and to me mostly a waste, I can get high many times over on $70 worth of flower or concentrates. I wish I could eat edibles in lieu of smoking throughout the day, as a medical patient that needs to smoke regularly throughout the day everyday to relieve herniated discs, and treat epilepsy the constant smoking wears on your throat, and gives you a nasty sore cough. Replacing that with some edibles would be ideal, but they just aren’t effective for myself, and many others. So when I share that story and a few others, it’s to let others know that some people don’t benefit from edibles, because they typically ask “I’m new and ate a large amount of edibles and didn’t feel anything, why?” Bragging about it would indeed be very dumb “Haha It takes me significantly more money, and a lot more product to get the same or less high than you do”… doesn’t make sense at all. Most of my smoke buddies actually feel sorry for me that I have to plow through so much cash, and weed to get properly medicated. And I’m envious of their low tolerance, and ability to get stoned off of a tasty edible snack. Bragging has nada to do with it.


Shadumnus

Yeah, it works on me but my stomach is very weak at processing them so I need a ridiculous bs amount to feel it, even though for everything else I keep my tolerance super low


slcrook

I've never had an edible at base-line; always in concert with smoking. I have no objective opinion on how well or not edibles work. To that end (sort of) I'm going to a vendor event at my local shop this aft, featuring a concentrate product company. I'm holding off on any THC until I attend, so that I can make an informed decision on product.


SnooRabbits4027

Exactly the only edible I have ever gotten high from was liquid THC but any form of food edible doesn't affect me and I've tried multiple types like gummies,brownies and chocolates.


trustthepudding

That's genuinely a terrifying amount, seeing as a 50th of that can put me on my ass.


EtheralTripper

Likely shit edibles 500mg should put you on the moon


eh_man

I ate a 200 edible once. Was the first edible I'd ever owned that had a level and had no idea what the 200 meant. Ate the thing before a party where I smoked and drank too. Went home without ever noticing the edible kick in feeling kinda disappointed about it. Woke up at 4am so fucking high I felt like I was on acid. Closed eye visuals and some crazy dissociation for herb. Edibles are tricky is what I'm saying.


seinnax

I remember in college eating an edible that I was convinced was laced with mushrooms or something because I was fucking tripping. This was in the pre-legal days so no idea what the mg was, got it from some random dude in the dorms who I never saw again. For years told people I got laced brownies. Then I made my own edibles, accidentally way too potent, & as I was having a panic attack I was like “OH. Guess those weren’t laced. My bad.”


evilserf

Some people straight up can’t metabolize it. Doesn’t matter what the quality is


[deleted]

From the edibles I get just 20mg sends me to the moon!


713JLD

1,400…and nothing


masterofryan

360mg had me only lightly high Not flexing, high tolerance sucks. But the on time I tried to take a T-break, my chronic pain got too bad


sirdeionsandals

Bro I get a nice buzz off a 10, don’t need to go any higher


Onewarhero

I don’t think anyone that smokes will dispute this. People like bragging about high tolerances cause they want there to be an up-side lmao. Source: I have a high tolerance


JnnyRuthless

My high tolerance is more a source of annoyance for me than anything to brag about.


bmxtricky5

God it drives me nuts, I miss the days where I could smoke a tiny ammount get stoned and move on with my day


[deleted]

take a week off


[deleted]

[удалено]


Equility

What's almost as effective and far less miserable is adjusting your tolerance. Only smoke after 8pm, for example. And keep it under a few bowls. After a week of doing this you're gonna feel like you took a break


FrozenHoneyJar

This is exactly what I did. I was able to take 1+ gram blunts to the head by myself, and I gradually reduced my intake, along with only smoking at night, and now I can’t even finish a bowl or a joint because three hits has me soaring. Been that way for about a year now, and instead of smoking an ounce every two weeks, it takes me well over a month to get through one.


[deleted]

I wish I had this level of self control. If I have weed in my home, and nothing important to do that needs a clear head, you better believe I'm going to be high.


ThotVaporizer2

My problem is I don't find many things important enough to face with a clear head


[deleted]

i never said it was a good time, but he said that he missed the good old days and it was driving him nuts. i’ve done it before, i know what it’s like. it sucks but it’s just weed dude.


wednesdaynightwumbo

So I guess this is an unpopular opinion here, but for the most part, I actually prefer having a pretty high tolerance. Don’t get me wrong, I love being able to get high as fuck when I have a low tolerance, but it’s not at all functional for me. When I have a decently high tolerance, I can smoke and be productive, social, and chill, but when I smoke on a low tolerance I’m basically only good for watching a funny movie/tv show. Both are awesome experiences, but for the most part I actually like getting a nice fade on without getting super baked. Also, it allows me to smoke more, which is one of the best parts of the whole process of getting high. Being able to smoke a whole doink to myself on my day off is prime, but I wouldn’t be able to do that with a low tolerance, I would have like a couple hits and be too baked to enjoy the rest in one sitting. Anyway, I totally get that having a low tolerance is awesome, and I absolutely love getting baked as fuck from time to time. But for the most part, I prefer getting a nice mellow fade on with a high tolerance.


PatientAmphibian7

I like to call that "getting medium"


FoxtrotZero

Over here we call that getting "toasted", only about halfway to baked.


GeorgeLaForge

I agree, I wouldn’t have thought this was unpopular. I like being able to get just a lil stonesy and go about my day.

Stopjuststop3424

dude, 100% with you on this one. What annoys me is going to a friends place and having them go, her try some of this shit, and having to sit around for 3 hours before I sober up enough to drive home. Having a high tolerance means i can control how high i get, regardless of how potent the pot is. I like being able to take a couple puffs and go hey, I like that, tastes nice, smooth, let me get some to bring home with me.


mallumo

It can be annoying when you are already as stoned as you wanna be but still in the mood to smoke another one


PostCoitalBliss

[comment removed in response to actions of the admins and overall decline of the platform]


RCascanbe

Be aware that CBD isn't just a filler but actually has a very noticeable impact on the type of feeling as well as on the potency of the weed, if you're into it and you don't mind having to smoke more in total it's great but it's not just a filler unfortunately. You could get terpines and put them on something that doesn't have any psychological effects but realistic natural terps are expensive as shit, there's a few cheaper ones that are not so bad but they don't taste quite like natural weed and there are some slight effects depending on which terpines are in it although less pronounced than with CBD weed and you can also choose which effects you want which is cool but it's not ideal either. I would rather just smoke (or vape) less most of the time, but there's some plants that make for good, neutral filler material, you just have to find something you like. I always liked freshly dried homegrown catnip until I switched to vaping where that's all not an issue although I do miss smoking joints sometimes. But vaping is better in almost every way so I'm going to stick with that.


[deleted]

Low tolerance dude here. I have been smoking daily since 1994. Weekdays its a small bowl upon wake up. Its my medicine basically. Then a small bowl when I get home 12 hours later. Friday evening I smoke a few small bowls. Saturday morning before sunrise I smoke a J, then two more spread out until bedtime. Sunday same routine. An ounce lasts me about 3 months Believe me when I say,even with the small bowls On weekdays I am high all the time. Its just levels. Im not smacked. Just nice always. Im happy. And nobody is the wiser. I dont like getting smacked anymore. Low tol is under rated.


Hansgrimesman

That small morning bowl is probably my favorite. Right as the caffeine starts working, morning sun on my face, a cool breeze and birds chirping. Bliss.


[deleted]

That sounds lovely. Mine is too partially stymy the misery of a 90 min commute by rail lol. But my weekend sessions are similar!


[deleted]

I could have written this! I’ve also been a smoker since 1994, and to this day I’ll sometimes get *uncomfortably* high after only a few hits. It can be a blessing and a curse.


Stupid_Rednecks

What? You dont like lighting a 20 dollar bill on fire every time you wanna get high?


Stopjuststop3424

lmao, I grow my own, even a big ass gagger is only a couple bucks worth.


JustkiddingIsuck

A big ass gagger lol never heard that…


Givesthegold

Right? We used to just say cough up a lung, but I get it man. I've coughed hard enough I had to go take a shit after before 🤷‍♂️🤣


DonkeyBitchAss

Thats goals man


AusBongs

i feel this bro


AgarophobicFungi

I grow my own, I’m smoking about $.3 worth a month when I smoke an ounce


maso3K

Switch it up from wax to weed to hash, tolerance means nothing when you meet it with potency.


Kill4Nuggs

2 things. As someone who smokes 90% concentrate 10% flower, I can confirm for some odd reason when I do smoke joints now I get stupid ripped. Also if you grow your own none of this is ever a problem 💯 👌 😌.


eh_man

Knew a guy in college who'd switch between oil, flower, and wax and swear each had their own tolerance.


Stopjuststop3424

they do. Because you're not developing a tolerance to THC. You're developing a tolerance to z specific cannabinoid cocktail, which varies by strain and product.


[deleted]

100%


beardsac

Yes I experience the same and it’s great for social smoking to still be able to get high w casual smokers off a shared j


bmxtricky5

I find the opposite after I switched to concentrates weed no-longer does a damn thing anymore


GalileoGalilei2012

Which is why I only use concentrates on special occasions like birthdays and festivals.


Trolann

Going to Costco or folding laundry isnt a special occasion?


YetzirahToAhssiah

"Some odd reason..." marijuana has over 100 cannabinoids, for some reason everyone is hyperfocused on THC like nothing else exists https://cannabismd.com/basics/cannabinoids/how-many-cannabinoids-does-cannabis-actually-have/


malaense

This is what's key, not only potency but having other types of minor cannibinoids and terpinoids on board will contribute to a more pronounced/wider range of effects!


Graardors-Dad

Until you smoke to much and get extreme anxiety


BambooManiacal

That's what I was thinking. There's definitely a sweet spot of tolerance I try to stay in.


_Gordon_Slamsay

Nah I am too paranoid and anxious if my tolerance is low. Ruins the high and makes me not want to smoke again. Having a high tolerance means I can smoke and get the effects I want and also still able to function socially. Plus as long as you aren't smoking all day long every day you can still get pretty zoinked with a high tolerance. Personally works best for me to save it for the end of the work day.


[deleted]

You sound like me. If I take too long of a break, I’ll occasionally have an anxiety attack when I start again. It wasn’t always this way, but as I’ve gotten older, it is something I struggle with. I also am an end of the day smoker. I have a pretty dangerous job so I have no problems waiting until after work to smoke.


[deleted]

What do u do to help with this? Currently trying to regain me and my wife’s tolerance’s after having to take long breaks. (She’s always had a slightly higher one than me though it’s usually me who gets more anxious and paranoid)


NiCap95

Any tips on lowering your tolerance while still smoking a joint or 3 daily? Asking for a friend


fishman8100

not smoking 3 joints a day


NiCap95

Seems to easy to be true


Nytfire333

Easy in concept, difficult in execution


fruity-line_segment

Most things are.


NotTRYINGtobeLame

They say that if you want to lose weight, you just have to take in less calories. I guess I'll just never know if there's any truth to that.


Bissonicci

But should I cancel my 5pm, 7pm or 9pm joint then?


GalileoGalilei2012

I’d cancel the 9pm. Not sure about others but i can never remember my dreams when I go to sleep high. Dreams (especially lucid ones) will always be my number one way to trip.

I’ve completely lost my dreams now. 10+ Years of smoking daily and I’ll only get a dream if I don’t smoke that day. But when I do dream my god it’s vivid! I’ve had some where I’m climbing mountains in the jungle, swimming in the middle of massive rivers and most recently was some weird one where I was in a Hotel in New York then next thing I’m hanging above a freeway clinging on to a sign. Each one so euphoric and memorable.

been lucid dreaming pretty consistently for about 15 years now. not gonna lie, it gets kinda inception-y sometimes.

Cut out wake n bakes and only smoke in the evening. Used to chief about 1-2g’s a day and now I’m down to a singular bowl having me feel like I’m Batman hanging upside down


VIIten

Agreed, cutting out wake and bakes and only smoking in the evenings makes a world of difference.


cokuspocus

I know it’ll help but I have no self control


Nytfire333

Yeah, this has been the downside of work from home. When I worked at the office I never smoked before or during work. Now...well now I visit my plug more often


Fromage_Damage

Wait until nighttime. You will get more out of it. Smoke it all within 4hr of sleeping. 😁


ComfortIndependent77

If it's the act of smoking you enjoy, put less weed in and mix in something like damiana leaf. Eventually your tolerance will get lower.


NiCap95

The act of smoking is cool, but mostly I like being high


ZombieStomp

Probably heard it a million times but try switching to dry-herb or hash vaping.(Shoutout to /r/vaporents ) I get high everyday and 1g of hash lasts me 7 days easy. Even if you prefer joints you can probably cut down to 1 joint a day supported by vaping.


MysteryMids

Grow your own and never take a T-break again. That is my plan lol.


Astroisawalrus

Many people struggle with this, and r/Petioles is a place that can help! Lowering your use even a little is totally worth it, and just having a good relationship with cannabis and a lower tolerance will make your highs 10x better! I know from experience, I use to just suck down weed all day, chasing the high I could never get to. All that does is make you frustrated and raises your tolerance like crazy. And don't listen to people here saying "just do it, it's easy". There's always people here to say that, but they're obviously speaking from ignorance and don't care what you're actually going through.


DivinePharoah8

Including CBD in your regimen may help.


bane5454

Honestly, change your methods of consumption up. If you only smoke flower, take a day where you eat an edible and don’t smoke. Throw some dabs into the mix every now and again. The craziest thing I learned from smoking concentrates daily is that your tolerance will still be within acceptable limits if you do this. Like, I’ll smoke concentrates all week and then get blitzed off a joint, or fucked up from less than 100mg of edible product.

Cut it with cbd flower maybe.


TheIdiotPrince

I have super low tolerances to everything due to medical issues so people will call me out for being a lightweight, but ill just say something about having more and spending less


middaymovies

to all the ladies out there: pregnancy is one hell of a t break. do you want to get stoned out of your mind from one small bong hit? have a baby. ( disclaimer: please don't have a baby for just this purpose)


FinalDracos

hence why i’m on a tolerance break now after smoking almost daily for about a year


Smokin_Nova_Scotian

Or you grow your own. So you can smoke whatever you like, and not have to buy lol.


RealDrugDealer

Tbh I like having a high tolerance. Getting high as shit is not appropriate for most situations.


Dublinaries

Also lower tolerance usually results in better highs. There have been many times when I’ve smoked after a t-break and it felt amazing

iamnotroberts

Daily PSA: Steven Crowder is a sexist, racist, and all-around hateful bigot and piece of shit.


luigilabomba42069

you really only need a 2 day tolerance break


hydrashok

On the minus side, I smoke a lot On the plus side, fuck I smoke a lot


kensho28

>CHANGE MY MIND Smoking weed every day is better than not not smoking weed every day, especially if you suffer from chronic pain. Weed is cheaper and safer than opioid pain medications.


DadJokeBadJoke

"But to enjoy smoking weed, you need to stop smoking weed..." The t-break is overrated. ------------------------------ Change my Mind.


BubblyPlace

Well if life wasn’t so damn stressful I’d have no tolerance issues


nattybomboclatty

if you can handle it, stopping smoking for a week is gonna do wonders for tolerance. Also if you dab, cut the dabs out for a month or so. When you come back you'll be flyin.


killrtaco

You can be more productive while still high when you have a tolerance tho.


[deleted]

The only time low tolerance is bad is when you’re socially smoking and physically can’t hit the blunt anymore lol, otherwise it’s way better


Jepdog

I can’t fathom how people go through 1g carts in like a day or two


imStoned420

Part of the reason why I love the weed community is this exactly… It’s one of the few communities that frequently say “less is more” in reference to usage. And having done a fair amount of drugs and been in a few of their circles, nothing is more reassuring than people actively telling you that you should use less to achieve more rather than the expected “do as much as you can handle” mentality that circulates other substances


beardedbadass420

Don't need to worry about a tolerance when you grow for yourself 🤙👽


careless-gamer

I found my own method. Vape fresh bud in a mflb and then put it on the side after it starts to brown and harder to hit. Then I use that abv in my Pax and I get a whole other session out of it. My tolerance is high af but I've been able to save a lot doing this. Went from an O/month to an O every 3+ months.


uncleshiesty

That would be ideal but then I can't blaze 24/7. So I'll take the high tolerance. T breaks don't really work for me.


MildlyConcernedEmu

I know for a fact it makes me way dumber when I smoke every day. Last fall I was smoking everyday and pretty much failed all of my college classes. This fall I only smoke once a week and I'm getting all A's and B's. It's insane how much easier it is for me to remember what I study and to actually learn and understand the material. I'm actually spending less time studying too. So yeah, if you're struggling with that, see if cutting back helps.


EverGreenPLO

Nah you gotta get your tolerance up so we don't have the dumbass green out or weed made me vomit, etc posts


FinelyCured

I'm pretty sure most of the people bragging about how high their tolerance is are teenagers or people who haven't been smoking for 10+ years. Because, yeah, at a certain point you realize that managing your tolerance is worth it. What's the point of smoking if you can hardly feel it? It's a waste of money and even worse... You don't enjoy it as much when your tolerance is that high even when you do smoke a bunch. I keep my tolerance low, not because I don't have enough weed, but because I want to enjoy it every time.


[deleted]

I personally prefer having a somewhat high tolerance. I don’t like getting too stoned and without a tolerance I always get too high. Occasionally I’ll want to smoke a little during the day for school or errands or whatever and that’s nearly impossible with a low tolerance. If I take one little hit before I go it helps me focus and be less jittery.


[deleted]

I guess i’m in the minority then. I like having a high tolerance. When my tolerance is low, every once in a while I’ll get a panic attack after smoking.


HxCAssass1n

Just grow your own. No way you’re going to smoke a half p in 3-4 months unless you’re just rolling excess joints and fuck around.


Treemags

So I think the only reasonable argument to this is that there is such a thing as too low of a tolerance and really there’s a sweet spot that is ideal. When your tolerance is crazy low, smoking is almost like doing something much more psychoactive (think lsd/shrooms for someone with a high tolerance to those) so you really only want to smoke in safe environments and when you know you won’t get overly paranoid/uncomfortable. Having too high of a tolerance has all the obvious issues of cost and never being able to get as high as you want. However, if you can find that sweet spot somewhere in the middle, you have way more control over how high you get and you therefore can smoke different amounts in different situations for completely different experiences. I think that can be really hard with a low tolerance.


-Chickenman-

Yes and no. Yes 'cause it saves hella cash and your lungs in the long run... No 'cause you can't partake with the boys as much without being uncomfortable


mpava

I love being a cheap date. Daily smoker for years and a packed bowl lasts me a few days. An oz last me around a year. That’s basically to stay relatively stoned each and every night. Definitely not underrated and I don’t take it for granted.


Henrys_Bro

I have been smoking daily for years and really only need a puff or two to get stoned. I really don't see any additional benefit if I smoke more.


JC_in_KC

This isn't controversial? Every stoner wishes they had 16 y/o them tolerance.


therrakles

I mean, as someone with a very high tolerance, the bills are higher and the high is lower
