My high tolerance - why do I have it?

[Pie_man]

So I read a lot of posts on this site and see about how much people smoke on a daily/weekly basis on the numerous "how much you smoke" threads along with the usual "tolerance" thread and I freak out at the results I find.

In my readings, I see people smoke 2x, 3x, 4x, hell, even 5x the amount I smoke in a week, and yet, my tolerance is through the roof and probably higher than most of you all. This is not something I want as you can all imagine.

So I did a little test last Saturday (7 days ago). I smoked a few bowls.

Method of usage: Glass bong
Bowl size: 0.2 grams
Interval between bowls: 10 minutes

Bowl #1: 2 medium hits
First 5 min: no effect
Next 5 min: I feel the weed affecting me SLIGHTLY. I can't pinpoint what I'm feeling but there is a slight difference than before smoking.

Bowl #2: 3 small hits
First 5 min: Feeling that slight difference, still can't pinpoint what it is.
Next 5 min: Feeling the same

Bowl #3: 2 medium hits
First 5 min: the same as before
Next 5 min: slight tingling feeling in my legs. (25 min after first bowl to feel something conclusive)

Bowl #4: 1 big hit, 1 very small hit
First 5 min: throat is burning from the big first hit of this bowl. Overall, still feeling the legs tingle a bit.
Next 5 min: Thoughts are coming and going a little, the tingling expanded to my feet.

Bowl #5: 3 small hits
First 5 min: Tingling expanded throughout my legs, arms, fingers, toes. Thoughts are coming and going. Chest is beginning to hurt a little.
Next 5 min: Tingling on the back of my neck and on top of my head. Feeling a screen over my eyes when I look around. Thoughts are coming and going rapidly now. Head is feeling cloudy. Stomach is growling a little.

Time spent: 1 hour
Weed smoked: 0.9g - 1.1g (~1g)

5 bowls for decent effects. Nothing spectacular.

Stopped smoking since the experiment. Today is 1 week after I did it, and tonight I will repeat the experiment to see what effect a 1 week break from cannabis will have on me.

Non-smoking methods tried in the past:

eating: 15-20 times. used a lot of bud to try and get fucked up, felt a mild high 4-5 times. about an ounce wasted in all those attempts.

lightbulb vaporizer: Don't own a real vape, tried this little piece of shit. smoked 2 "bowls" felt nothing. Made me look like a crack head too. 2 big thumbs down for this method.

Watch me get under 10 replies for this thread. Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this thread and replying.

You're like Freud cataloging his drug experiences!

I really don't have that much to tell you except that tolerance can be lost with just a few days of abstinence.

Instead of taking 2-3 hits for 1 bowl..man up and start cashing in 1 hit..Its much easier if you use a grinder..i use a coffee grinder so the bowl burns easy

I can't take huge hits, they fuck up my lungs for hours. I would though.
