Whenever i smoke now i dont get stoned. I feel a slight difference. But my eyes dont get heavey. and i dont get the giggles no more. And i dont feel it in my head. And i know its not the bud.
Has any of you been thru this before?

Smoke higher grade weed OR take a break from smoking for a week and a half and you should be just fine.

Stopping for a short time doesnt always work . Also if you start smoking kind buds and then attempt to go back to your regular strains it will be even worse than it was before . So be prepared to continue smoking kind if that is the route you intend to go . I am an older Hippy ... I dont get the giggles at all . I stopped getting them lets say 25 years ago . If you have been smoking for awhile , I am actually surprised that you do get the giggles .... I have noticed that if you are in the same enviroment as you normally are the effects are not as pronounced as it is when you go out into new places and do some new things . Even the lighting can efffect your buzz . I have often thought that I am not high at all and then I go out in the car and drive and I feel stoned out of my mind . . You might actually be high but since the sensory inputs to your brain are not changing you are not feeling the full effects . . A little test might be to do something technical or complex . You might then find that you are having a hard time doing that task and might start feeling the high . Switching your brand usually does help alleviate the buzzkill effect . . When I purchase a quarter pound for person use by the time I am down to the last ounce or so I am not feeling the high very much at all . But when I go out and get the new batch it seems like I am getting high again for awhile . Changing the types of ganja that you are smoking is a good way of increasing your expieriance . But make sure that it is a lateral change . IF you are smoking commercial find a different batch of commercial . IF you are smoking the kind then find a new type of kind bud . IF you switch up to kind from commercial you wont get much of a buzz at all from the regular buds that come around . Your Smoking piece can be part of the problem as well . IF the smoke is too hot , your lungs sometimes cant process the smoke as well as when it is cold . It is this way for me anyways . I think this is because a cold smoke does not irratate the airways and you dont cough . You are therefore able to ingest the smoke better . This is just one example . I have noticed that when I smoke from one hitters the buzz is not nearly as high a quality for me than when I smoke from a higher quality piece . I also get a different buzz from using a vaporizer . So try new things , do new things and hopefully it will all come around for you .

Try a gravity bong or vaporizer with some dank bud and tell me you aren't stoned :)

I have the same effect when getting in a car. Though the whole coughing thing screws you up imo.

yeah i experience this waayyyy too often now...I used to be an easy bake, n then i started smoking everyday this summer...n then i started smoking like 5-7 times a day near the end, and i couldnt get high nemore...
Its more like a....sedative relaxant(or what i imagine they would be) feeling, where i just feel lighter, and relaxed.
I dunno, taking a break works to some extent...i could get blazed agian when i take breaks, but not like i USED to get blazed...I havent experienced a good sativa high for many many many months now, n am curious if this'll ever change..
i dunno i hate smoking when i cant get high now, it feels like im wasting money

... man yall... i mean of course i don't get high like i did when i was a newbie, or like after i took a one year break, but i still get high
i may have to smoke more, better, or smoke it alot faster. eating marijuana helps
you can play with your surroundings, to feel the high better... but generally you are just making a tolerance... YES, clearing your mind and body from cannabis, for at least a month, will really knock it back down, there isn't much else you can do to get that newbie high... it is simply a perception thing...

I think the persons general metabolism is also a big variation for the daily stoner.
Personally I'm skinny, have pretty much no fat and little muscle. Also I walk everywhere I go, probably cover 3/4/5 miles on a day when I'm out so I don't find tolerance a problem to much. If your a big guy though then that's going to be a big part of it.
THC sticking to fat or someting like that.
And yea quality of the bud and the method of use.

Really? I have heard that coughing actually increases your lung capacity because it forces you to use the parts of the lungs that you don't regularly use when you are just breathing normally. That could be wrong though.

don't smoke for a week or two then make either a decent sized steam roller or a gravity bong, get the best bud you can and toke until you choke and don't pass til you're on your ass....

If you find your not getting as high anymore, either switch to a new strain of equal or better quality, try a different method (gravity bong has been mentioned, but vaporizers work well I hear) or take a break.
Me and my friends tend to stick to a weekend plan, smoke on friday/saturday, you don't quite get messed up as your first time but it definatly helps lower your resistence to it.

cutting down on how often you smoke, although difficult can greatly affect how high you get. I try to smoke only twice a day (although it usually runs more like 5 times). When I smoke 2 times a day for several days in a row I start to get high every time I smoke, but if I smoke more than that particularly more than 5 times a day, then the following day I cannot get high at all during the first part of the day.. so i try not to smoke in the morning on these days... This seems to be almost as effective as quitting altogether for a week or so. Also quitting for just a day or so or even one day should have a noticeable effect on tolerance.

the answer is simple...get in touch w/your body!! if u live an active lifestyle, u WILL get way more stoned. it always amazes me how most people dont realize the mental/physical connection...its the same thing! if u dont smoke all day long u will also get more stoned.
the fresher the blaze u will get more of the psycoactive compounds of delta 9 and less cbc. try eating more fruits and vegitables. go on a long hike and smoke after u get done, once u eat/shower and all that. i dont smoke when im hungry bc it is a WASTE imo. once u eat ur metabolism makes a fat jump. all of a sudden ur blaze gets stale. i take care of all my sh**, work out, SSS, eat something do push ups then take a fat b-rip.
i used to be a constant all day smoker myself. i could go on forever about powerful foods and how to keep ur brain/metabolism fresh. all i can say other than that is smoke different cannabis spectrums. also try finding better weed, move to cali
best of luck

I have been forced to quit in the past because of Probation officer issues . When I came back I did get higher for the first couple of times but my old tolerance soon came back . At the present stage in my life , I get a certain type of high from the ganja but its not like the high I used to get when I was 17 . I wonder if the same thing is happening with some of you ? Is your buzz changing as you get older ? IF you find that this is the case , the maybe you might just have to live with the fact that you dont Get super high anymore . At least you are getting a better feeling out of the deal then sobriety . Smoking different types of bud gives me different highs but I dont get the super high effect any more . I have learned to enjoy the effect that I am getting rather than regret what I might have lost . Personally I prefer to smoke only primo kind buds because the high is more consistant .
ALSO , it is close to harvest time right now . You might have been smoking older less potent weed . Once the harvest arrives for all of us the weed will get better for awhile .
Also , I have noticed that coughing does seem to get some people higher or at least feel the effects better . . There is a mechanism at work there but I would not suggest trying to make your self cough to get a better effect . I personally believe that you cough because you got a bell ringingly huge hit . The size of the hit rather than the cough is what is making you get the after cough feeling

Your just used to the high and can handle the feelings unlike you could when you were just getting used to it. It will most likely never be the same for you. I've been clean for a month due to me moving and having to get a job right alway. I can't wait until I smoke again!!!!!!!:giggity:
