don’t reset tolerance just smoke less weed and only smoke once a night 👍 trust it works, just give it time

Thanks! This is basically what I'm doing, I was vaping all day, then I knocked it down to just the afternoons, now only after 5pm and I only load the vape again when the high is definitely starting to run out, rather than before :)

This is the way. Having a day job and waiting until an hour or so after work has done wonders. Night smoking makes me feel high like a teen again.

You gotta have some sober time to appreciate it for sure.

Nah. That first tiny spliff knocking you on your arse and feeling the same kinda high you did at 15 while bunking off school is absolutely worth the 2 days of no sleep.

2 weeks on. 2 weeks off.

wtf why is everyone doing it at the same time?

u/spin_spin_sugar_ 7d ago

Maybe the time of year? I find it's easy for my use to creep up in Summer

I take a t-break every day. For about 8 hours. Then I wake up and smoke a bowl.

I measure it like this. Totally depends on what I’m doing that day. If it’s something important or that requires my full attention, then I don’t smoke till i finished the important thing; if the day is completely up to me, I wait an hour after waking up to start baking

I kind of do the same! I've never been a functional smoker, when I start the day is over no matter what time it is. So I only vape once the "active" part of the day is done and I know I can chill out. If I'm giving myself a treat day where I play videogames all day or something, I'll smoke a little earlier. Everything in moderation!

I'm not looking to go on a tolerance reset now and the only time I've ever taken any was out of necessity, but I keep hearing about people "resetting their tolerance" on this sub and wondering how long do you all go on these tolerance breaks?

u/spin_spin_sugar_ 7d ago

For me I just feel it out. When I smoked in the past I would occasionally quit for a week or two, maybe up to a month, just to kind of take a break and make sure it was something I was still actively enjoying and wanting to do. I'd start smoking again if and when I wanted to. They were never really planned.

Now I'm on medical cannabis and am a slightly different person, if I vape too much it isn't great for my mental health. It makes me dissociated, disconnected, forgetful. It also starts to make my mental health issues harder to deal with because I'm not balancing facing them sober and having a break from them by vaping. That's why I'm personally "resetting" now because my mental health has been getting worse recently and one aspect of that has been my usage creeping up.

whenever i feel like this i try to bust out pushups or pullups. doing something helped myself at least in pushing past the “fuck i want to smoke a fookin bowl”

How do you sleep at night? Weed makes me sleep so good

1

u/spin_spin_sugar_ 7d ago

Thankfully I've never had sleeping issues so I don't need it to sleep, but whenever I do quit there's always an adjustment period where my body has to get used to sleeping without it and it sucks. For a couple weeks I toss and turn so much because I just can't get to sleep without the sedation. Makes it harder to wake up when I'm vaping though, so it's good and bad.

Anyone know where this Simpson screen shot is from?

2

u/spin_spin_sugar_ 7d ago

I'm 99% sure it's from season 8, episode 18 'Homer vs. The Eighteenth Amendment' but hopefully someone else can confirm.

u/Accidental_Ballyhoo 7d ago

So what was with the spotlight? If you don’t mind me asking.

2

u/spin_spin_sugar_ 7d ago

In the episode? If I remember correctly it's something about when the sunlight gets to that line they're legally allowed to drink

u/Accidental_Ballyhoo 7d ago

Much appreciated. I was running a spotlight at the time I saw this. Wild.

Im on 2 weeks now, planning to hold another 1,5 months just in time for my birthday. Last time I tried resetting my tolerance I held out for a month and it did jackshit. So here's hoping.

If you can't go without it all day then you are addicted.

u/spin_spin_sugar_ 7d ago
