Smoking yourself sober???

[make it legal]

Someone told me about this, that if you smoke enough you will get sober.

Honestly I think it sounds retarded (can we say that on here?) but who knows.

Has anyone else heard of this. I don't think it's true.

[4twentE]

i've done it before

[slipknotpsycho]

actually yes it is true, i've done it quite a few times... however, it's not like you smoke yourself to a point where you are sober as if you've done nothing that day.... your body/mind feels drain, but you're no longer high..

i suspect tho, it's just from smoking so much you can no longer get high for that day (or few days) and your high just wears off as it naturally would... so it's not really smoking yourself sober, it's smoking so much you just can't get high again for awhile....

[birdgirl73]

Do you mean sober from being high from cannabis or sober from being inebriated from ethyl alcohol?

[make it legal]

I mean from smoking.

i've done it beforeme too:stoned:

[ghosty]

yeah it used to happen to me back when i was smoking all day like everyday sometimes. It'd happen later in the day after smoking a lot, id smoke one more and instead of feeling high, i'd start feeling more sober, kinda tired, but not really high anymore... smoking more doesnt really help either. I always took it as a signal that id smoked enough that day

If you mean as in you sit down and start blazing getting higher and higher and then your high suddenly disappears I would say defiantly not

If you mean youve been blazing all day long and then you find you finally have a session that does nothing but make you sleepy then yes

Oh yeah... it's happened! I think your body just hits a threshold point when there is so much in your system that a temporary tolerance is built up. It's not like being really sober, I wouldn't recommend operating a motor vehicle or doing your taxes in that condition, but the "high" feeling doesn't seem to resonate after a while...

For me, it's any time I go beyond a 1/4 oz in a day. I get to a point where no matter how hard I try, I just can't get any higher. And after a while the high itself just seems to dissipate, despite continuous smoking.

never happened to me tho i havent sat down and smoked all day

[hero3279]

Yeah thats a shit feeling but I think it only occurs if you burn yourself out by smoking too much, but to hell with that. The high will come and go but I will not stop smoking.

[melodious fellow]

From talking to a BIO prof, I learned that the body has receptors for THC that work like a lock and key. If the body is flooded with too much THC at one time, the receptors will decrease their functioning or stop receiving altogether.

Tolerance occurs because the body begins to produce more and more receptors, causing you to have to blaze larger quantities.

/\/\/\ exactly ive done it before a few times, you basically just don't get high cus your brain is full of sweet sweet thc. and because you can't get any higher you get soberer. its a weird thing when your smoking a j and not feeling anything but it happens

usually happens in summer when its mine and 4 mates b'days so we have a few weeks of hardcore madness that usually just resorts in 1/4lb and a 4 days of smoking

peace

Ya. Been there.

[Omnirok]

Been there done that...

We had a ounce of dro...

Smoked a half and were pretty baked and then I smoked another blunt...

Yea then I noticed my high was gone...

I was no longer high....

Felt so stupid....

so sad....

I almost cried...

But I went to sleep and woke up 6hours later fucking blazed so yea... if it happens take a nap...

For me, I wouldnâ??t call it sober. It happens to me when I smoke all day long (which I do on the weekends.) I get a headache and feel like shit. I am not high, but donâ??t feel sober either. Itâ??s really just a shit feeling and I wonâ??t be able to get high again for at least four or five hours.
