When I drink regularly my alcohol tolerance goes up...that is, it takes more to get me drunk than it did before.

Does weed tolerance work this way? Why do you need more to get high after a while? I figure that alcohol tolerance goes up because your body "learns" to digest and break down the alcohol faster, but why does your tolerance increase with weed? Maybe with marijuana your "tolerance" increases because you get USED to feeling high, so being as high as you used to get doesn't surprise you much any more, or make anything seem new. So you get *higher* than you used to, but because you're used to being high, it feels about the same.

In your personal experience, have you found that this is the way it works with pot? Is an increasing tolerance a matter of getting used to feeling high and therefore needing more, or is it a matter of breaking down THC (as your body breaks down alcohol), or both?
