Ok that there is people that does it in the bars and such, but it doesnt mean that its healthy. For example, drinking (booze), is NOT healthy, and people does it nevertheless.

Anyway... the amount of nebulized tincture needed to get the effects is larger, smaller or equal to the amount of drank tincture i would need to get the same effects?
I most definitely agree that a doctor's approval would be key, however I don't do it daily because I don't know the long term or short term effects. I'd say smoking is probably as bad or worse, basically with a nebulizer you are introducing the regular air into your system as your are inhaling the tincture. Where as when you smoke you are inhaling a burning still hot oxygen eaten smoke.

From all the research I've done on lung damage linked to alcohol the jist I got is that person who does it moderately has stronger lungs. A person who is an alcoholic seem to have a death rate with lung issues even with that of liver problems. However, around 80% of alcoholics are heavy smokers, which has been linked to lung issues. Smoking and drinking heavily together obviously seems to increase lung infection.

It seems that alcohol seems to be bad for the lungs however it is mostly due to the correlation of heavy drinkers being heavy smokers. You do have alcohol in your lungs when you drink.

When you drink around 5% of your alcohol consumed is exhaled and 5% goes through urine, while 90% goes through the liver.

The amount of alcohol you are getting in one breath is very minimal when you consider how much you have to drink to get drunk, take 4-6 shots gets most people a solid buzz to a fantastic drunk, that is 6-9 oz of alcohol going into your stomach.
Doing the math:
(6oz=177 ml )* .05 = 8.85 ml
(9oz=266 ml )* .05 = 13.3 ml

When I was at the bar and I showed some friends, we used maybe at very most 10 ml with at least 7 heads.

For "moderate" drinkers they are those who drink around 2 drinks daily(a study showed moderate drinkers have stronger lungs).
The math;
3oz= 88.71 ml * .05 = 4.4355

That would be a lot of tincture to take down in my experiences.
I have a nebulizer that holds 4 ml, the only time I filled it was the first time, I realized that was way overwhelming. I could go through about a dropper full(1 ml, already had a dropper and a nice form of measurement) and feel great but you don't need to just inhale it as fast as possible.

Theoretically it should not be any worse then drinking. Now inhaling it straight on that is the question. The great thing about a nebulizer is that it makes it into a very very fine mist so that it can be easier absorbed, it is literally just a taste and inhaling at least a moisture(rather then drying out your lungs), your body doesn't have to break it down it goes straight into the blood stream via oxygen, so the high is immediate like smoking.

I will admit that it is entirely possible to not realize how fu6ked up your are until you start to be active, being in a social atmosphere makes it much more noticable. If your sitting at home it is less noticeable, it seems that your thought process is still intact, but you are floating I can't explain it, like having high grade THC weed it just makes you really high.

Pros:
-Immediate high(one hit gets me good and buzzed)
-A head floating feeling high(clean)
-Still have solid coordination
-Thoughts still intact
-More control over your length intoxication
-More control over how intoxicated you want to get

Cons:
-A much shorter high(seems about as long as a smoking high)
-Not medically approved(don't know the long/short term effects)
-Once it is in the nebulizer you must use it or waste it
-It doesn't debilitate you as much (It isn't a "stoney" high)
-Must continue to take puffs in order to stay intoxicated(not just a dropper full drank in a shot)

I'm sure there are other pros and cons but I ain't in the right mind set to continue to ramble. Hope some of that is helpful.

I had to re do it and remember how much I used lol. I wasn't sure, because I never really payed attention. Now I can't pay attention lol.
