Summary
Dronabinol is a synthetic form of delta-9-THC, the primary active ingredient in Cannabis. It is presecribed as an appetite stimulant and for treating neuropathic pain in the United States. Dronabinol is one of the examples used to point out the inconsistency of the U.S. and U.N. controlled substance rules and definitions because THC both falls under the classifications as "no accepted medical use" and "accepted medical use".

Based on reports from:
Tolerance
Build-up
develops gradually over weeks of daily use; subjective effects diminish before physiological tolerance
Reset
2–4 weeks for most users; heavy users may need longer (up to 90 days for full CB1 receptor reset)
Tolerance Decay
Full tolerance
10d
Half tolerance
14d
Baseline
~28d
Acute tolerance: develops within a single session — the reset numbers above apply after sustained heavy use, not after one binge. Within-session tachyphylaxis usually resets largely overnight.
Based on human imaging and clinical studies showing CB1 down‑regulation with daily use and reversal over days–weeks. Model is approximate and varies with dose, frequency, and route. Data quality: mixed clinical/anecdotal.

Seriously how did they make weed so strong. I haven’t smoked since 1993 and the last thing I smoked looked nothing like the weed my grandson gave me. I smoked about half a gram in a small joint because he said it would be strong and boy was he right.
Had my first trip yesterday and it went horribly wrong. I was sold what i thought were edibles in a weed shop. 20 Bucks for two edibles, so sorta a reasonable price. I decided to take one with a friend of mine. She took one too, and we went to a shopping street for fun.
I’ve stopped using cannabis for a little over a month now. It’s been a good tolerance cleanse. I decided I wanted to get something non smokeable but also without any added food coloring or unwanted unwanted ingredients, so I got ahold of some RSO cannabis oil.
So this isnt really a trip report but more of a description of a type of trip I doubt many other people have experienced. Sorry for the text wall I think that this is really interesting and something that ive never seen other people experience to this extent so I just wanted to s...
I started smoking weed when I was 18 back in 2017. Around that time carts weren’t as common as they are now. I started buying pens and carts later that year after trying a friends. I liked that I could do it at home and in my car and nobody would know.
when I was 14, I was a really big loner. I didn't have any friends due to being really shy and I really wanted to seem cool. I didn't do any drugs besides smoking weed every other day out of a gum wrapper that had the foil scraped off.
I have no idea whether a real ego death is possible with weed, but based on the definitions I've read I think I experienced it last night. I've never tried psychedelics but smoke somewhat regularly, maybe 1-2 times a week on average.

Consciousness, has always been a topic of intrigue, to me; in particular, ways and means of exploring and mapping states of consciousness to ordinary reality. The first reason, I pursue it for personal or spiritual growth. The second reason, practical knowledge in creating an artificially conscious mind i.e.
March 22, 2007 First, let me begin by telling you a little bit about myself and that the reason I am writing this is to attain closure. I am seventeen years old and I have great parents who are not divorced, I have two wonderful older siblings, I live in sunny California and life is great.
'There is no progress in art, any more than there is progress in making love. There are simply different ways of doing it.' -Man Ray I realize that there are a ton of cannabis experience reports, but I have not found adequate representation of my experiences. So here goes. Im a 32 year old male weighing 80 kg.
It somewhat started a day before the fourth of July. Raz and I had the idea to hook our computers up over at his house because his parents would be gone. Then we could play Warcraft 3 for all hours of the day. Then, the fourth of July rolled around, and I went to bed around four-thirty.
Sometimes people who have never smoked cannabis ask me why I do it. Some of them are genuinely curious. Others make a point of saying that they have plenty of fun without drugs. Well good for them, and so do I.
Marijuana's Time Spirals Dosage: Approximately 3 Grams of alleged "High Grade" plant material rolled into a blunt. Method of Administration: Smoking. Timing of Administration: Attempted to smoke all at once, but in fact smoked it in at LEAST 2 segments, possibly 3.
FORWARD: I realize this is a very long report and as a result many people may not read it. I am okay with that as I feel that simply having written it down may have given me the peace that I needed. Thank you. This report is written approximately 1 week after the experience.
About Me: I am fifteen years old and am enrolled in lots of overachiever high school classes and so on and so on. Nevertheless, I am decidedly lazy and inconsistent, maybe pulling an A plus in one unit and perhaps failing the next.

Most amazing weed "Trip" very long, but a must read My friend had weed about a month before this "trip". He smoked a joint with his friends, and didn't finnish it so he put it in a cigar case, and left it in his room for over a month...
Okay, so alot of people ask me if I've hallucinated on sweet MJ before, and I always answer the same way. Truth is, yeah, I've hallucinated on weed. And it isn't really about the fact that I hallucinated, as the fact that it's such an amazing and beautiful journey. Both of my friends and I shared such an experience.
Rolls & Cannabis (3 tabs) - Experienced - Theme Parks & Rolling, Amazing & Terrifying I quickly summarized my experience with shrooms and lsd, because they are the 2 most intense drugs I've ever used, which can offer some comparison of the intensity of this roll. Weed - Daily smoker. Usually only once a day.
0:00 I haven’t had any weed for six days which is like some kind of record for me. Can’t remember the last time I made it this far. I’ve been smoking five or six joints a day, minimum, for months despite the fact that I own a perfectly good vaporizer. In the end there were more roaches in the house than roaches.
Marajuana -- Last Experience -- Drowning & Dying w/ Mary Jane. Drowning & Dying With Mary Jane. (on 3/15/02) Sandra patted me on the back and congratulated me -- I'd finally inhaled correctly. I'm always trying to do it too quickly, but I inhaled slowly and then a bit deeper when I took my finger of the air hole.
This experience was hands-down THE most intense experience I've ever had on cannabis to this day... and in some ways maybe even the most intense psychedelic experience at all that I've had..
So, this is hard to piece together as I don't remember anything too clearly. I am partially going off of other's accounts, but I cannot separate the "dreams" I had from reality that went on during this night. It is really hard to recount the story.
Marijuana - Years of Experience - Heart Attack? Panic Attack? Flashback? Hey there, I've smoked weed for about 2 and a bit years and I've had more than my fair share of experiences including bad and terrible ones. Just recently though, this weekend I had 2 COMPLETE freak outs like I have never had before.
