When I first smoked pot, it was crap. Purchased at the grade school by my girlfriend's little brother. I believed that pot either made you hungry or horny, never both. And that was only the better stuff. The shitty pot just made you slightly off balance.
Today's stuff is amazing, but sometimes too much. Being stronger it lasts longer.
@Jeber I am a MMJ patient & agree, it's really potent now. But I'm a lightweight.
Too much THC increases my anxiety.
My doctor recommended a 1:1 THC/CBD flower combo. I dry vape in a Dynavap. For workday use, the doc has me micro-dosing 1/4 edible. If I ever feel "high", during the day, I'm doing it wrong and cut it down. It's really done wonders for me. Also the budtenders at my dispensary are helping me weed out (haha) the strains that set me off. It's a fascinating science.

I've always been a lightweight as well. I never smoked as much or often as my best friend. No, I'm sad to say my drug of choice was coke. I spent most of the 80s and a whole hell of a lot of money supporting that habit. I told my doctor that if a safe, non-addictive stimulant ever comes on the market, I want it. Meanwhile I stay far away from that crap.
@Jeber The 80's yeah, coke was everywhere. I indulged occasionally but avoided it for the most part. Hard drugs really wreaked havoc on so many friends with some tragic consequences 😕
