ive been smoking on and off for the past 6 years (19 now) and for the past three years every day and yes i think you do build up a tolerance. there was a time when i would smoke half a j or even less of pretty shitty dope and be smashed for hours. recently tho, it takes me two or three joints of some classy gear before im that fucked up. but anywayz, thats just me

I think that tolerance its not that your body becomes tolerant to weed, I think its more that your mind becomes used to being high and the amount that it takes to get you the point where you like to be in your high. It also probablly depends on what kind of weed you smoke like last night i smoked two bowls of diesel and got mad high but other times ive smoked 3 blunts and gotten the same amount high

A friend of mine has smoked pretty much every day for 7 years and he has to smoke maybe a 1/2 bowl more to still feel the effects. Tolerance exists, but it's not nearly as horrible as people make it out to be.

I had a bad ass tolerance, it's starting to give though. Just two joints if I'm in the right mood and I've got a decent buzz. Thought I'd share.

LOL.

Okay, your body builds a tolerance to any mind-altering substance with extended use; thus THC. I can't beleive you guys are asking this. For instance; let's say theoretically you had a migraine for 30 days, you take 2 tylenol and it goes away for 6 hours. After about a week you'de have to take 10 to feel it.

NOTE: Your liver would fail.

I'de get more in depth but I have to write an essay, later.

Your tolerance only get soo high, before your body can't make it any higher. You can't be 'immune' to bud.

that's not true dude when i started i only had to take a hit or two to get wrecked....nowi have to smoke alotmore....atleast a bowl or two.....so yes youdo build upa tollerance...matter of fact your body will develope a tollerance to any chemical that isnot natural to it if you giveit regular doses...i've been takin the same sleepin pills for more than 10 years (not always the same brand but same exact ingredient...diphenhydramine hydrochloride) and it should only take 2 but if i am to feel them at all and be able to sleep ihave to take atleast 8 now....

tolerance is all mental, but like, you smoke a shit load of pot at once, of course, being a little high isn't going to feel like much, and you keep this up, a little just won't feel right any more. I guess thats a tolerance. BUt after like a year of heavy use, i could still feel something after 2 or 3 hits, but it wasn't like a complete high. Except now, i don't find my self getting "high" at all like i used to. Its more like drinking now for me

slipknotpsycho
05-16-2005, 03:02 AM
....dude tolerance isn't mental.....get that through your head it's a proven fact that people on medication often have to increase their dosage everyonce in awhile because guess why? THEIR BODY DEVELOPES A TOLLERANCE!!! not their mind...it can be the same wtih any chemical that your body takes in at a steady rate....

sir smokes alot
05-16-2005, 03:21 AM
hey i exercise alot doesn't that bring down the tolerence or something i don't kno i just heard if you get like a ton of exercise it will help get the thc out of your body which weakens your tolerence i doubt its true j/w

slipknotpsycho
05-16-2005, 03:37 AM
...yea i doubt it's true too...i mean it would make sense in one respect..the fact that shit from weed after it's smoke or whatever is stored in fat cells and excercising would burn off fat cells....but that just sounds like a nother urban legend to me....

well actually, It is extremely difficult to build up a tolerance to THC. the reason you develop a tolerance to certain psychoactive substances is because they wear out and or damage receptors on your brain, or induce your body to make chemicals that do this. THC does neither. it messes with the receptors but does not harm or wear them out, therefore no physical tolerance and no physical addiction. you can however develop a psychological tolerance (and addiction) which is about as real as the physical one. when you smoke every day you are (depending on what, and how much you smoke) high for at least several hours. say you feel the effects of the weed for 4 hours and when your high is wearing down you have a bowl more to keep you going. you could be feeling the effects of weed for up to 8 hours and even after you arent stoned anymore you still feel the "afterglow" a little for prolly the rest of the day. that means that you are under the effects of marijuana for over half the day. if you smoke the next day. it isnt a new feeling because when you went to bed you felt the effects of reefer. you become more comfortable being higher, because you spend over half the day high. that is psychological tolerance. also if you have a physical tolerance to any drug, it wont go away because of a 3 day break. not a chance. also dont hold in your hits for hella long times. 95% of THC is absorbed within 5 seconds. so ten seconds would certainly do the trick. after ten you are just absorbing tar and possible (though none have been found yet) carcinogens.

yes often times people on medication do have to up their dose, but not all chemicals produce a tolerance. do you find that you have to keep breathing more and more air with every breath to live. every week do you up your water intake an extra gallon. of course not. there are loads of chemicals that your body takes in that you will never develop a tolerance to. these are lies spread by your local DARE officer.

yeah I was being a smart ass. However, even things that are not natural to your body and are not essential for life like say cheetos, will not cause a physical tolerance however some things that are natural to your body will cause a physical tolerance, like say insulin or serotonin. it just depends on the chemical. THC has been proven not to cause a physical tolerance. I am not denying that most people develop a very real psychological tolerance which is not just "in your head" Your first time getting completely blown is of course going to be more intense than your tenth time because you are not psychologicaly reacting as wildly. you know how to control it. here just go here. http://www.cannabis.net/acetylcholine/ it is a bit complex but it shows that you wont get a tolerance to thc

slipknotpsycho
05-17-2005, 07:38 AM
ok smart ass again first time i was nice about now your just pissin me off dude i know you know what i'm talking about so please stop trying to find flaws in what i type and just pay attention to what's being said and use common sense.....and i don't care how much evidence you come up with all these studies could be fake for all anyone knows..i have my own....almost everyone to this board (even way before you joined) have complained to building up a tolerance..it isn't logical that, that number of people would develope a mental tollerance.....mental anything depends on a vast array of a number of things and even two people having the same thing would not be common. the [logical] evidence is in this board that the human body does develope a tolerance to detra-tetrahydro-cannibinol. infact if this subject wasn't here and on another msg board i would create a poll askin people if they believed (based on logical evidence) that they developed a tolllerance over time to it. but in the intrest of science and accuracy i won't because now this has been brought out into the open and people could choose sides based upon who they'd rather vote for rather than what they actually think....so i'm done with this. you can believe whatever you like and i'll believe what i like....but i do believe the evidence stands in my favor...but i do know quite a bit about psychology since i have been stuck in group therapy and stuck with psychiatrist since i was 6 or 7 and if i wanted to i could even tell you a bit about your psychological problems (not like it's a bad thing everyone has them just each person's varries) just by talking to you and seeing how you think on certain subjects. and as i said before it is not very often that two people have the same make up since [most]everybody's personallity and mental state is based on past events. but i know you are going to have a comeback for this cuz you have a control issue and have to prove people wrong (suggested by the fact that you tried to prove me wrong and had to come back with another smart ass comment and create yet another flaw in my statement even after i tried to brush it off and forget it) or will you just ignore this because you don't want to prove me right? (again another control issue you don't want to prove me right so you can be [forgive the lack of psychological terms i am drunk] Mr. Right.

there is such thing as tolerance. just lately i've been needing a bit more bud to get me high. i could usually get a good high going after a bowl, but now i need 2 bowls before i know i'll be high.

ShamanicHippy
05-17-2005, 11:34 PM
dude. I am not just trying to prove you wrong and I am not just looking for an arguement. I didnt want to argue with you over a small issue like this dude. I would really rather not piss people off on this board. I would rather it be peaceful. I did find a couple of studies (after i posted last) that did show that lab animals will develop a small, yet existant, physical tolerance to THC. so I would like to retract my statement saying you cannot develop a phys tolerance to THC. I did not mean to piss you off or anything. I am just here to talk with knowledgeable people about something that I love. the main reason I was for the anti-tolerance theory is because the government says (often in contradiction of its own studies) that you develop a very large tolerance and after a whilie you cant get high, which leads you on to harder drugs. obviously, this is completely untrue. as there are not 30 million heroin addicts in the US. really I am sorry if i was an ass.

slipknotpsycho
05-17-2005, 11:58 PM
ok well then i guess i should apologize too....i was drunk last night and i just got very aggervated at what i thought you were trying to point out flaws in my statements....and i can understand why you wouldn't want to believe such a thing since the government does try to portray (sp?) as a highly addictive drug that leads to a life of nothing and no money because you will always need a bit more...i'm not saying the tolerance is like that but i do for sure notice that after quite a few years of smoking it takes me a bit more to get the same effects....

damn I just come to have fun and you ruin it man you fuckin ruin it, you make me loose faith in humanity.

The kid says he smokes a lot and theres no such thing as tolerence, i tell them to smoke an ounce in what I believe to be a rather short period of time (week) and he comes back to say he smoked an ounce in two days. So, if you wanna tell somebody to "get weed worth smokin" maybe, just maybe it should be that other kid and maybe you should have stayed the fuck out of it you see but you wanted to start shit, you did.

and then haha you start a thread in SPIRITUALITY about me being 'gay'?

1) He wasn't trying to prove he can smoke 2 ounces easy, he said he can smoke 2 ounces without losing tolerance.

2) Immature fun is awesome, deal with it. Don't be so fuckin hypocritical, you come here with your shit grammar, acting like a complete dick with aids, calling everyone names and shit. Then when you finally decide to try a kick at grammar and you still suck.
