Tolerance thoughts

[EciRonTog]

Iâ??ve been smoking on a Daily basis for a few years now. For a few years before that I would only smoke when it was at a party or something I was at and it was usually about once a month or so.

I feel that it doesnâ??t really get me as high as it did back when I was smoking rarely or even for the first month after I started daily. I think thatâ??s pretty typical for most people that they feel like they build up a tolerance after a while.

But I was thinking and I wonder if instead itâ??s simply that you mind has re-trained itself. Like when you first smoked your mind had to re-learn how to do everything in the altered state. Itâ??s like walking for the first time, etc.

I used to really hate driving stoned, like I would have trouble going too fast or too slow and I would see shit in the road sometimes lol, but after I did it for a while I just â??got used to itâ?� and now it feels no different than driving sober. Also, Iâ??ll be stoned and thinking â??I donâ??t really feel that stonedâ?� but then if I do something that I donâ??t usually do, all of a sudden Iâ??ll feel totally stoned out of my mind. Like for example I smoked a bunch before I went to one of my friends weddings, and wearing a tux and stuff and doing the whole thing which isnâ??t exactly something I do every day I felt stoned as hell. Same thing if like Iâ??m camping or out on the boat which I only do a few times a year Iâ??ll smoke and feel stoned as hell whereas I hardly feel stoned at all when I smoke at home. I mean to the point where I can take fat bong rips at home and not feel as high as after a single toke from a pipe while camping, etc.

Then again there is other stuff, like I donâ??t usually get the munchies anymore unless I smoke a TON more than I usually do, and I donâ??t even remember the last time my eyes got red.

This has probably all been said on here 100 times already but just brainstorming

yea ive found pretty much the same thing. but i'm happy with the average stone that i get from a bowl

You could take a long break, that usually helps make the high better.
For me taking a break and then smoking again feels like the first time.. almost.
the high is much more intense.
try it

I have been smoking for about 2 years with the last year being daily and no numerous occasions.

I wake up every morning, roll over and then pull the bong. Through the day I smoke a few times and lately by bedtime I almost don't care to smoke and burn my stash up because I don't get very high at all- slightly buzzed like off of a single shot of liquor.

I took a break for 3 weeks when I got popped and I thought it was going to kill me. :stoned:

stop for over 30 days and have a good diet/excercise program. then smoke the usual bowl and before you finish, you think, "damn, i ain't been stondeded, stonded, stow..nd, what was i saying? oh yeh! i ain't been this stoned since back in the day, ya mean?"

i so hate but love those long breaks!

EciRon, sounds like I'm one of the few, but I completely agree with you. I noticed when I was smoking all the time that the differences between being stoned and sober were subtle if even noticable. But anytime I went outside of my comfort zone I'd relapse to being stoned as if I had to learn it all over again. then after time, my comfort zone would expand. After awhile of cooking stoned, surfing stoned, driving stoned, studying stoned, and just living life in general, stoned, I realised that I was just wasting my time and money. I cut back a lot and I noticed that the high becomes more intense, but without the noob inability to function. I recommend trying it and seeing if you enjoy it. I've cut back to smoking only 2-3 times a week (less sometimes) and its just all around better for me.
