I'm in my forties and last year I got a wild hair and thought that I should try cannabis at least once in my life, and I bought a gummy to try. I spent all night waiting for anything to happen, and just ended up going to bed. I'm missing out on what these people in the article are doing I guess because that was just boring.
It's very common to not feel anything the first time. I don't know if there is a scientific reason why, I'd be interested to see a study on it. My guess is dosing issues and maybe preconceptions getting in the way.
You can always try again with a higher dose and/or different delivery method. Edibles especially are difficult to dose because they kick in 2h+ after ingestion and heavily depend on metabolism. Inhalation is essentially immediate.
What dose should I use?
Edibles flat do not work for me. Smoking/vaping however does the trick every single time. Some people are just wired different, you may be one of those people.
I am wondering if it's because I take naltrexone come to think of it.
