I tried cannabis for the first time this year and I'm 50. That's it. It had zero effect on me and I just had some cereal.
When smoking it often doesn't work the first time, try again if you got nothing to do that day 😂
I tried a gummy, 5 mg. I had some cheerios and went to bed.
Well... sry to disappoint if you were expecting to see dragons or smth, but that pretty much is the effect.
Well I guess I had the wrong picture lol.
No wörries. A lot of people do.
I remember expecting something much more, as the depictions from shows and movies were always pretty overt. (This was in early 00's.)
Ended up being more akin to like a similarly strong but opposite effect of caffeine. Caffeine makes me less hungry and more active. Weed does the opposite, more or less.
Haha nice,I don't know anyone else who started with gummies, but when it works you'll notice!
I guess I just have to try a higher dose. I'm on an opioid antagonist medication though for anxiety which I think is blocking the effects.
I'd suggest slowly increasing the amount you take. Though if you're taking it frequently you will have to account for a grown tolerance as well.
Edit: and if you stop for weeks at a time don't resume at the dose you were taking while consuming regularly.
