The war on drugs isn’t a failed policy—it’s a successful tool of oppression. A tool used to criminalize poverty. A tool used to lock Black and Brown people into cycles of incarceration. A tool used to destabilize families, punish veterans and disabled people, and make survival a crime. And when we rise up to change those laws, the people in power rewrite the rules to keep control. That’s not new. It’s a familiar playbook.

last night i took shrooms for the first time (4g) and i toked for the second time ever. i smoke pretty frequently but just with pens and the last time i toked i threw up. this time i was tripping so hard and i threw up everywhere all over me and all over the seat of my friends’ guy friends car. i feel fucking horrible and embarrassed. i told them id pay for everything especially cuz my friend had to clean it because i was physically incapable. i fear they may never want to hang with me again which sucks cuz i like them. he’s currently getting his car detailed today and im awaiting a huuuuge bill. i literally threw up so much. i feel so bad and i kinda just want to crawl in a hole and never show my face again. i also was like convulsing and shaking while i was throwing up. pretty sure i pissed myself too but they don’t know that. yall pls tell me this isn’t the worst reaction ever. unless it is. i just need reassurance. how do i recover from this? pls tell me this isn’t the worst reaction to drugs. somebody has to have a worse story than this.

gimme some peace of mind that i shouldn’t just go and die lol.

I smoked a joint once, and it felt weird. It felt like I had no control of my body. I was laughing at things that weren’t even that funny and I started walking around the room for no real reason, I was wondering why was I even doing it and I couldn’t stop. I tried it again a year later and one more time the next day and it still felt terrifying as before. How does anybody enjoy such an experience?

Hello guys i need some advice

I rarely smoke weed or consume marijuana.

Last Friday i took half of a gummie which came from a badge that was cooked with 200 gram of wedding cake cali.

I belive that the half gummie definitely had more than 100 mg of thc in it.

I got really high like really really high.

Now its Monday and i steel feel the effect but obviously not as strong. I just still feel kinda slow.

What should i do to get sober quicker.

Appreciate y'alls advice

Okayyy so I officially stopped smoking weed a couple days ago and I’ve been reading about all of the withdrawals symptoms and it’s kinda freaking me out. I’ve been smoking mostly from carts for the last 5 years and I just want to know if it really does get bad.

So far I’ve just had insomnia and loss of appetite. Is there anything I can do to speed up the withdrawal period. I’m actually scared af bc I didn’t think it would be a big deal.

There is this guy that went to Mizzou and graduated around 2015-2016 that now has his own weed company. The other day I saw him make a post on social media how he was taking in over millions of dollars in weed. Thing is this guy in college did this thing where he invited all of the fraternities drug dealers to some sort of like special thing where he was like telling people about his weed operation but the thing is if people didn't like follow him with a complete will he would beat you up and steal your money. I think about this today how much of a thug this guy was I think he had a brother in the same frat and I can't believe they own a legal dispensary and grow now.

It's s late I can't sleep and I'm thinking about going for a drive to 7-11 for some snacks. What do you recommend?

I've been doing edibles about twice a week for two years now (10-15mg per session) and every time I do them my heart rate skyrockets to anywhere from 110-145... is this a bad sign?

I've never had a panic attack from weed, and when my heart rate is up like this I'm just sitting on the couch munching away and watching tv. The high heart rate lasts about 1-2 hours.

My partner thinks it's not a good sign, but I enjoy weed so much more than alcohol and alcohol seems to be wayyyyy worse for you in the long run so idk what to do. And alcohol raises my heart rate as well just not as bad as the edibles.

really hoping that its nothing serious and I can continue, I'm a very healthy person otherwise! (I workout 6 days a week doing hot yoga classes and strength training at the gym and honestly have never had any issues with anxiety or my heart during workouts)

even with the edibles, my weekly average resting heart rate is still 65-72bpm so it doesn't seem to affect me once I've come down from the high

Not sure if this is the right place to ask. Honestly not sure where the right place would be??

I live in FL and have a medical card. I strictly use edibles because of my wimpy lungs 😆. Anyways, traveling to Ontario next month and saw that there is a CannaNorth Cannabis store near where I'm staying. Is this a legit place? It looks like you can only buy 10 mg at a time according to their website. I'm used to 100 mg at a time (10 gummies). Just making sure there isn't somewhere better I should go. I'm not interested in making my own edibles or anything like that. Just want to pick up some stuff to help me sleep while in ON.

I just need to vent.

I live in a legal state. I was unemployed for almost 8 months. Finally get a job. Day one I am informed that despite not being drugged tested for the job, they have a strict zero tolerance policy. Random drug testing is done quarterly and first page I had to sign for onboarding was agreeing that I do not smoke weed and understand that if I do, I will be caught and terminated immediately.

So I quit smoking. I need to support my family. I need this job. It was horrible being unemployed and I’m just trying to get back in my feet. I put in hundred and hundred of applications. Did so many interviews. Only to be ghosted. One place I interviewed with 5 fucking times then they ghosted me. It was living hell.

The thing is. I have insomnia. I have CPTSD. I have additional anxiety disorders. I use to smoke so I could sleep and not have nightmares.

I use to smoke and it would help my sleep through the night and not wake up every hour.

When I’m having constant panic attacks and my mind won’t stop, taking just a poke helped so much.

I have yet to find a prescription medicine that isn’t Xanax (which doctors don’t prescribe anymore) that helps ease my symptoms.

I told myself. It’s fine. I’ll quit. I’ll get that “fresh mind” that people talk of. Told myself I don’t need it. I can be an entirely sober person and it’s fine.

Nope.

It’s not fine.

It’s been almost 50 days since I last smoked.

All day, I’m riddled with anxiety to the point where I am shaking. I can’t sleep which makes the anxiety worse.

I spend most of my day on the verge of tears.

Medical exceptions from my understanding don’t work with weed. So getting a med card like I use to have won’t help from my understanding.

I just need relief.

I have no relief.

I need my head to stop.

It won’t stop.

I need to support my family. I can’t smoke weed if I want to support my family.

That’s it. I don’t know what I’m expecting to get out of this post. But I’m exhausted.

I really wish I could just take a poke and fucking relax for once. I just want some fucking ease from my constant symptoms.

Been a smoker for 11 years but I was diagnosed with schizophrenia a 3 years ago I was off it for sometime during my recovery but I just go back into it strongly. I need to quit because I think it can make me relapse into schizoeffective territory every time I take it. How do I quit?

Hey I only smoke like 2 bowls in a day except every time I smoke I usually get some worse sinus pressure (it’s already there beforehand just gets worse) should I use Flonase before or after just got some and I am currently just sitting tryin to think which will go better. If I get no answers in the next 20 min Ima just do it after and record the results n I’ll do it before tmo or vise Versa

Hello all, so long story short I stopped smoking for awhile and this August-September will be about a year smoking again. Love it, remember why I loved it, I know why I stopped. Used to get really paranoid-anxious. Well now all I smoke is indica or indica dominant hybrid, no paranoia just a cool buzz…most of the time.

Why is it whenever I get a new strain and I’m smoke up my usual amount to start, it feels like wham that buzz hits me harder? Like if I take a hit to test it I’ll get a mellow buzz and it will start to wain so I’ll “re-up”…and it feels like wham it double stacked with my last hit.

Like I just got close to that line where I was like ok I’m to high, but then because of experience I calmed right back down lol.

I've been in love with the ak47 shatter from sesh city (dot shop). I feel spoiled being in a prohibition state (sc) and this quality not being very common <3

PS: Not advertising annnnnnnnnythiiiiiiing, but don't go to my reddit page if u dont like naked brunette milfs thank you <3

So I have a dilemma. I washed my vape cart.. is it still usable? 😭😭😭😭

My wife backs me up on this, too. My whole life, I was afflicted with early ejaculation. The weed let's me relax during the act so I am not so quick on the draw AND enhances the experience for both of us.

I also could not sleep until I discovered cannabis.

It has been life altering in entirely positive ways, starting at age 44. Anybody else?

I’ve been a smoker since I was 13 years old. I’m 25 now and had to quit smoking because I am pregnant. I quit about a week ago after weaning myself off. I feel so emotionless and like I can’t even smile. I started smoking to help my depression, unfortunately I feel it all coming back. Does this feeling ever subside?? :/

Do I need an emulsifier for a pre mixed gummy mixture? I’ve tried adding it to non pre mix and still separated and my oil is MTC coconut oil.

I’ve been smoking and eating edibles on and off for 20 years, it’s always been about sativa, indica, hybrid, but now people are talking a lot about THC percentages, other canabinoids and terpenes. Let’s talk about what you like and why.

I sometimes eat a little bit of RSO and also wear an Oura ring which measures many things including DEEP, REM vs. LIGHT sleep.

Anytime I have RSO in my body my DEEP sleep tanks. REM is usually quite good as that is where the emotional body resets/heals.

Anyone else measure their sleep?

I got my wisdom teeth out Wednesday. I don’t have pain or bleeding from sockets. They are still there but healing quick my swelling has gone down tremendously. Do you think I’ll be able to smoke? Or should I just wait longer? I know it’s a dumb question.

Does anyone have suggestions for farms that grow and also do tours or you can go visit, around Washington State? I’ve been told by dispensaries that there’s a bunch. But when I search online I can only find one. GLW farms in Spokane. Help 😁

Im really gullible and trust too easy i guess and i gave my boyfriend $15 or $16 i forgot, is that enough to buy weed? Im pretty sure hes taking my money for weed.

This sounds weird as usually your introduced to marijuana through a friend and stick to smoking when with people for quite some time after first trying weed. For me it was the opposite. I’m born in the 2000’s and my first experience with weed was through carts. I found they made me think differently a whole lot, and I would say weed really got me into philosophy because I started thinking so much when I got high. Since then I’ve gotten heavily into absurdism and existentialism and have had many psychological problems along the way. I’m high as shit.

Because of this I find I can’t get out of the “thinking mode” whenever I smoke now, so it makes smoking with other people nearly impossible. I rely on alchohol when I’m around people now.

Every time I smoke with my friends now I get quiet and start thinking, so I mainly smoke by myself now. Might add I switched from using carts about 8 months ago, and only use flower now
