So I just turned 18. I already got drunk in my life after I threw a party while my parents were gone, I wanna try drugs too. Is it worth it?

      And make sure you don’t just sit there. Get up and walk around because it gets the blood flowing and THC where it needs to go. Doesn’t have to be outside, just stand up and move a bit.

      Seriously do NOT eat that second edible even if you think the first one didn’t work. Gets me every time lol

        Also be aware that you might not experience anything the first time you try it. And it can affect people in different ways. Some people feel high, some get agitated, some get sleepy, some feel nothing. And your tolerance for edibles is unrelated to your tolerance for smoke.

        I had some friends who kept eating more because that batch caused such intense munchies, it didn’t work for long but was funny as hell to watch

        Second edibles are the fucking devil… those assholes wait until you’re in the pocket and then launch you straight to space shuttle status with a swift kick to the junk.

      We know you’re excited, but for real, they take a while to kick in. Decide your dose and ride it out. If it ends up not working, double it tomorrow.

      Find a nice couch and channel surf. Find a good nature documentary or some cartoons. Or, if video games are more you style, try something that doesn’t require much strategy, or on any save files that you care about.

      If you DIY, my advice is to make a pan of normal brownies and a pan of weed brownies. It takes a while and you’re gonna be hungry but you don’t want to feel like you’re dead because you ate 4 weed brownies

      If you take an edible it might take up to 2 hours before it kicks in. A common mistake people have as they take one, it doesn’t immediately take effect so they assume it was a dud and then they take more and then they end up taking more than they planned to. It’s not going to kill you or seriously hurt you, certain psychiatric predispositions excepted, but it will be unpleasant.
