Weed New Users Guide
Weed vs booze
This guide assumes you know something about booze, somewhat with the expectation that you’re a relatively seasoned user. You’ve gotten wasted, maybe loads of times. But you know how to handle your booze, and have no problem avoiding getting blackout drunk at inappropriate times.
If you’re a seasoned alcohol drinker, weed is much easier to “overdose” from, i.e. to have more than the optimal amount. Alcohol has a unit system aligning to national laws, and is either so dilute that it takes a while to get wasted and you feel the effect rising (beer, wine), or so strong that you taste how powerful it is and have to sip carefully (neat spirits). With weed vape pens and joints – both of which are now really strong compared to the 70s – it’s easy to take a big hit and be really high immediately, which can be discoordinating and scary (see also: drinking Long Island iced tea when you were a teenager). With edibles, the same is true but played over a longer timescale, which can trap you in an unenjoyable place for a while. The stories of people re-upping having felt nothing from the first gummies, then being hit by a double (or triple) drop, are legion.
You’ve been consuming booze since you were a teenager, and are a seasoned pro. You’re just starting with weed, and are a complete novice. When you were a novice with booze, you overdid it loads of times. With weed, you’re more prepared to blame the drug, rather than blaming yourself.
Dosing concepts
I’m of the opinion that almost ALL instances of people having a bad time on drugs, are due to “overdosing”, due to poor planning and research. All the information is available for you to avoid having a bad time, but it can take skill to locate and synthesise that information. I hope to do so here.
“Overdosing”, “ODing”, are typically terms associated with news stories where someone died with froth coming out of their mouth and a needle sticking out their arm. While this IS overdosing, so is having one glass of red wine more than you probably should have, so now you’ve got a bit of a headache, and you’re thirsty, and you won’t sleep as well tonight. Any time you’ve dosed more than the theoretically perfect amount, you’ve overdosed. The extent to which you overdose typically equates to the extent of downside. A little bit more than you can handle, can arguably be a good thing, pushing your limits, teaching you how to remain mentally calm while you’re in reduced control of your thoughts. A lot more can lead to freakouts, uncover suppressed emotions and memories, etc. This is true for booze too – anything that disturbs sober control of your brain can lead to dark, anxious, painful thoughts, just as it can lead to fun, silly, joyful, loving thoughts.
Henry Ford: “If you think you can, or if you think you can’t, you’re right”.
Me, regarding how your frame of mind and ability to manage anxiety influences your experience while high: “if you think you’ll be fine, or if you think you won’t, you’re right”.
If your drug experiences continue to unearth buried bones, stop the drugs, definitely stop drinking, and start therapy (research EMDR/CBT) asap.
Dosing amounts and strategy
It’s possible to learn how to swim by diving into an angry ocean at night… but that’s not the most enjoyable, stress-free way. Hold the railing, and dip your toes into the kiddie pool first.
Vape pens
Dragging on the pen pulls hot vapour into your lungs at the rate you drag. If you’re not a smoker, this may feel unusual and probably painful – your throat and lungs aren’t used to hot vapour. Start by dragging for ONE SECOND and then continue to fill your lungs half full – not all the way to the depths of full lungs, about 2 seconds? Hold it for ~3 seconds, exhale smoothly and calmly. Wait at least 10 minutes. Notice how you feel, how your thoughts change, does your body feel different, are you more talkative, shy, introspective, extroverted, giggly? Different strains give different effects, but we’ll come to that later. Vape pen hits usually last about 20 minutes before most of the primary high is over. Try to take a tiny ‘sip’ from the pen. As with all of this: there’s no such thing as too little.
Edibles
Ostensibly no technique to worry about (just eat it) but if you let it completely dissolve in your mouth then it’ll likely get absorbed and you’ll feel the effects quicker, reducing the chance of “maybe it didn’t work, let’s try again”. Dosing is MUCH more important to get right, because effects can last 3 hours or more. Budget 1 hour to come up, another hour for the broad peak, then the final hour coming down. Weed binds to oil/fat and alcohol. Try not to booze at the same time since you’re trying to learn what weed feels like. If you have fatty/oily food (burger, brownies), you’ll feel more effects from the same gummy than if you had something oil free (ramen noodles or whatever). Start with 5mg. If you’re a kid, medium/petite woman, start with 2.5mg. The key thing to remember is that you’re probably not going to die before next weekend, and having a bad time today isn’t worth the rush, so have a deliberately light dose, prove to yourself there’s a ‘floor’ level beneath which you’re microdosing not actually dosing, consider it a lesson learned, and come back next weekend with a little more confidence that you know what you’re doing, and that this new drug thing isn’t going to melt your brain or whatever else you’re worried about (i.e. 2.5mg now, 5mg next time. MAYBE in 2 hours)
Drinks
Somewhere between vapes & edibles in terms of onset & duration, likely depending on whether you have any food in your stomach when you begin. If not: liquid goes straight through the stomach to the large intestine and is absorbed quickly, maybe 45 minutes or less. If so: your pyloric sphincter closes to stop food falling through, and passage of liquids is much slower, meaning the weed will be absorbed gradually.
Practice
Makes perfect. Start slow, log the amounts you take, and ideally log how you felt. I use my digital calendar for this: start a 3 hour event when I take a gummy, note the amount. This is beneficial since you can check how far through you are, comfort yourself that if it hasn’t hit it’s probably about to, comfort yourself that if it feels too much it’s going to calm down soon, and plan your next drop.
With vapes and joints, try to use the same technique each time. Learn how many drags, or how long of a drag, equates to being how high. Make notes as needed.
Tolerance seems to be logarithmic: it can take a while for folks to gradually move up from (2.5 to) 5 to 10 to 15 to 20 to 30 to 50 and WAY beyond. Take your time, increase GRADUALLY. Again, if you record your experiences on a digital calendar, then you can search for “THC” and find your history of experiences and remind yourself where your tolerance is. Presuming they’re your gummies, there’s no great harm in nibbling one in half and coming back to it another time. Optimal dosing is the aim of the game.
Optimal dosing
Conceptually you can plan your ideal drug experience by carefully dosing the right amount, and then topping up the right amount at the right time. For a 3-hour comeup-high-comedown curve with edibles, you can set a 2-hour reminder, thereby dropping every 2 hours, so the comeup hour of edible2 overlaps with the comedown hour of edible1. You could jumpstart the comeup of edible1 with a toke of a vape pen. Then at the end of the night, if it’s too late to have another edible, you could have a toke of a vape pen, which will last a shorter time, so you wash out enough weed to be functionally sober by bedtime.
This level of planning and control is an unusual concept for booze, where you typically just keep going until the bar closes or you pass out (or etc). But with weed and other drugs it makes much more sense: lesser legality means you’ll often want to plan consumption around the availability of discrete locations. Much higher potency, and thus scope for accidental overdose, places greater primacy on getting dosing correct beforehand.
Safety
The science is updating regularly, and we already know weed is no panacea. In ultra-brief summation: IF you’re comparing to a typical alternative whereby a night/weekend/life consuming cannabis is happening instead of booze, then weed doesn’t NEED to be perfectly healthy to be a better choice than what you would otherwise do. And it is: alcohol is terrible for you. There is no safe low dose – it’s poison. Yes, it’s completely socially normalised for many thousands of years, yes our cultures are based around its consumption, yes it’s legal, yes most of us do it regularly and have normalised its side-effects. But it’s far worse for your physical and mental health in the short and long term. If you’re looking to ditch booze, but still need something to change your headspace for work or play (or alleviate symptoms), marijuana (especially in edible form) is likely a lower overall health-detrimental choice.
Vapes
Only buy from licensed shops, and research the brand first. Some big brands with professional packaging have been found using pesticides. Cheap 3rd party vape juice could be any old shit. As always, don’t worry that it’ll be laced with something more hardcore: why would producers of more expensive, harder to produce and sell drugs, waste those drugs by sneaking them into something so easy to produce that it’s literally dubbed weed?
Edibles
AFAIK bad products are less of a thing. That said: delta9 is a weaksauce hemp-derived weed that’s legal for sale in some states where THC isn’t. It’s pretty-much trash. But not dangerous.
Types
All booze is just alcohol. Sure, some types make people feel a little different for whatever reason (more or less sugar, associations with drinking style (shots), etc), but it’s all one drug. Mushrooms: a variety of different strains, but they all ‘just’ produce psilocybin.
Weed is a clown-car packed with drugs. Cannabinoids are the main drugs. THC is the big one. Head high, mental effects. CBD is the other heavy hitter. Body high, relaxation, calm. There are 150+ others: CBG, CBC, CBN, etc. See here.
Terpenes are the others: natural compounds with the formula (C5H8)n, produced by loads of plants; there are over 55,000 of them. See here. Essential oils? You got em.
Strains: the two types of weed are indica and sativa. Indica = “in da couch” = more relaxed, body high, chill-out, sleepy. Sativa = sunny = more energetic, mind high. But:
As mentioned early, this ain’t your grandad’s weed: since the 70s, growers have been in an arms race to make more potent and productive strains, with less chance of crop failure. Since weed has been globally illegal since Nixon ruined it for everyone, it’s made sense to focus on indica strains which grow well indoors, away from the prying eyes of the police. Subsequently, indica has made its way into most strains, and you’ll struggle to find actually pure sativas unless you seek our ‘landrace’ strains like Durban Poison or Acapulco Gold. Landrace strains are related to original native species, and haven’t been criss-crossed with other strains for the past 50 years. So in sum: nowadays if you go to a weed shop and buy some flower/bud, you’ll inevitably get a super high potency indica strain which will probably knock you on your ass and make you feel anxious – especially if you’re having it in the evening when everyone’s gone to bed and it’s dark, and you don’t know what you’re doing.
The full profile of all the cannabinoids balance themselves out (CBD reduces some of the bad elements of THC) and have a wonderful mix of ‘entourage effects’ from the terpenes. One can extract the whole of the plant and convert it into oil, i.e. full extract cannabis oil, but that’s getting out of newbie territory. Ideally, try to buy edibles and vape carts and flower which has a balanced profile of THC & CBD, and lower potency.
Tech & logistics
Edibles
Find a brand you like & trust which does a range of options. I like Camino for THC and Five for CBD, but find what’s good in your area.
Vape pens
Ideally buy a separate battery + cartridges to reduce single-use plastic & battery waste going to landfill. This also allows you to comparison-shop cart vendors, while choosing a battery which suits you. I like the Yocan Kodo Pro because it’s cheap, and simple to operate: many batteries rely on a multiple-button-press-combo system like something out of a Sega Genesis cheat code, which can lead to confusion, frustration, accidentally getting super high, or all of the above. Most importantly, for me anyway, the more common pen-format batteries result in a long pen which takes up too much pocket space.
Notwithstanding hundreds of thousands of people travel on airplanes every day with normal, non-weed medical gummies in their day-of-the-week pill boxes, and normal, tobacco vape carts in their wash kit, we DO NOT recommend you do this, for legal reasons.

Advice How to fix my highs

Upvotes
Hello, I smoked weed for years with no problem at all, then I had a really bad high overdosing with another drug while being crossfaded on both. Now, I’m finding it impossible to have a good high again, even minor ones. Before I try again, what can I do to guarantee or even give a chance to having good highs again?
Edit: edibles are the biggest culprit for horrible highs for us, and we always get regulated dispensary weed since we’re in Washington. We also can’t get flower because the smell would get us kicked out of our current place

Percentages?

So basically I remember smoking weed when I was a teen & it was so fun. Me and the homies would play sports high, play basketball on trampolines, walk far distances for food & still feel energized. 😂 literally smoke like 4-5 blunts or joints & be cool jamming to music & what not.
Now I stopped so much I’ve had a half an ounce just sitting there for months. (I’ll smoke a small raw paper like every week or two in the evening). I totally cut out before work as I know I’m not as sharp and people can tell when I’m high. Khalifa kush is usually a nice strain for me and doesn’t really kill my energy too much.I went fishing yesterday and thought it’d be a good time to break out some bud. (Blue Dream) Rolled a fat king size raw. Was having fun with one of my friends cracking funny jokes and was decently on point. Felt pretty good & euphoric. But as soon as I started driving like an hour after i smoked I could tell my focus wasn’t 100%. Then when i got home instead of for taking a shower like I usually do, I just stuffed my face with Dairy Queen 6 pcs and a blizzard & straight up crashed. Woke up in the morning like shit. I didn’t even take a shower. I don’t know what’s up with the weed nowadays or it’s me, but it feels really different. I think my next move when I run out of weed is ask for the least percentage weed they got. It’s weird too because like I know people like my neighbors will smoke non stop high percentage & still be super functional. I miss the days when I was able to handle my bud. I’m 25 now for reference. Is this just me getting older or the weed itself, I really can’t tell why I can’t hang no more. Any input is appreciated.

Dreams & Nightmares after Stopping
11
Upvotes
For context: I am trying to get a job so I have quit cold turkey. I’m on week two and feel fine mentally and physically. Previous to that I have been smoking daily for almost two years. The only thing is my sleep quality has gone down tremendously since. Prior to quitting, I would rarely remember my dreams much less wake up from them. I would also sleep until 10-11 AM unless interrupted.
The first week quitting I experienced for the first time in years night terrors and sleep insomnia. I would wake up gasping and screaming. That seems to have passed thankfully but I am now waking up everyday at 5-6 AM after a crazy intense dream that I can remember pretty well. I would’t say they are lucid because I cannot alter the dream but I have control of my body and mind and can think in the dream.
For example, last night, I had a 50 minute REM cycle from 6-7 AM. I distinctly remember the dream. I was traveling with family in some strange town and we could not agree on a place to eat. We end up getting split up and I am hitchhiking on the road. I meet this girl who gives me the direction to a nearby food place. At this point I can feel my body starving in the dream. When I get to the food place I eat but then the dream switches to me being in a kindergarten classroom but everyone is my age. We are learning different words and phrases. This teacher’s class specifically was words. I remember having a paper with animals on it from a different class that I was studying. She got extremely angry that I was looking at another class’s work during her time and started acting as cruel and demeaning as possible. Then she sends me to the back of the class with this annoying and obnoxious girl who pushes all my items on the desk and shoves me. I try to get the teachers attention but she doesnt care. I go to the office to call my Mom and report the teacher. Then I pass out and wake up (still dreaming) in a room with my Dad. Very strange but I look at my instagram and I have posted the most obnoxious stupid things. I check my camera roll and the things I have posted are not in it. I conclude I had been hacked.
The dream takes a slightly darker turn as I try to explain to people I was hacked and someone is trying fuck with me (especially after the teacher incident which I still remember at this point in the dream) and no one will believe me. I keep seeing the teacher but she disappears. I get this dreadful feeling of being watched/chased so I go house to house in this neighborhood begging for help. No one will help me. I finally steal a police car and pull over far away and finally feel relief. I turn around and the teacher is there telling me it wasn’t a good idea to get out of my car. At that point I start running as fast as I can and wake up.
Has anyone ever experienced these crazy intense dreams like these you can vividly remember and a sharp decrease in sleep quality. Was it temporary? How long did it last?

Research & Science Weed, B12 deficiency, and MTHFR, the full mechanism breakdown
33
Upvotes
Been digging into why cannabis seems to hit so much harder when B12 deficient or MTHFR positive, and there's a real, multi layered biochemical story here, not just a vague sensitivity.
The direct case precedent
There's a documented case that closely mirrors this exact situation, a 22 year old who used nitrous oxide and cannabis together and developed a full psychotic episode tied to low B12 levels. It resolved after appropriate B12 supplementation, confirming the connection wasn't incidental, correcting the deficiency corrected the psychiatric symptoms.
How B12 deficiency destabilizes the system on its own
B12 deficiency causes buildup of methylmalonic acid and homocysteine, and that buildup is proportionally related to the severity of neuropsychiatric symptoms, not just physical ones like fatigue or numbness. The documented clinical range for B12 deficiency includes psychotic and affective episodes, behavioral disorders, and cognitive impairment. Case reports specifically describe B12 deficiency presenting with hallucinations, delusions of reference, and thought broadcasting severe enough to be misdiagnosed as schizophrenia before the B12 connection was found and treated. The underlying mechanism traces back to B12's role, alongside folate and homocysteine, in the methylation pathway required to produce serotonin and other monoamine neurotransmitters, so when B12 is low, that pathway is disrupted at a chemical level, not just a psychological one.
Where MTHFR fits in, same pathway, different bottleneck
MTHFR converts folate into its active usable form, which methionine synthase then uses, with B12 as a cofactor, to clear homocysteine. There's a documented case of psychosis specifically tied to homozygous MTHFR mutation combined with multiple vitamin deficiencies, which resolved with vitamin supplementation, not by treating the gene itself, since MTHFR variants can only be worked around through the deficiency they create, not corrected directly. There's also a broader framework in the literature called the transmethylation theory of psychosis, proposing that MTHFR variants raising homocysteine and disrupting methylation are a genuine contributing mechanism in some psychotic presentations. A study comparing first episode schizophrenia patients to healthy controls found the schizophrenia group had lower B12 and folate along with elevated homocysteine, with the authors suggesting those abnormalities may have influenced symptom severity.
So MTHFR doesn't cause paranoia by itself, it reduces how efficiently you process folate, which makes it harder to keep homocysteine cleared, the exact same pathway B12 deficiency disrupts. Being homozygous for a MTHFR variant while also B12 deficient means hitting that bottleneck from two directions at once.
What THC does on its own
Separately from any of this, THC is directly documented to cause paranoia. A large randomized, placebo controlled study using intravenous THC found it significantly increased paranoia, negative affect, and anomalous sensory experiences, and reduced working memory, with the negative affect and anomalous experiences fully accounting for the increase in paranoia. This happens in people with completely normal B12 and MTHFR status, so THC doesn't need a deficiency to cause paranoia, it's already capable of doing that on its own in vulnerable individuals.
The receptor level connection
CB1, the main receptor THC acts through in the brain, is itself regulated by DNA methylation, and this regulation appears to be part of what determines individual vulnerability to psychosis from cannabis. Research on human brain tissue found CB1 gene expression and methylation levels change across the lifespan, and this pattern was linked to increased vulnerability to prefrontal cortex dysmaturation from cannabis exposure during adolescence specifically. Animal research found that THC exposure altered DNA methylation at cannabinoid and dopamine receptor genes in the brain, paired with the same social withdrawal and cognitive impairment patterns seen in schizophrenia models. Cannabis exposure has also been shown to directly change DNA methyltransferase and cannabinoid receptor expression in blood cells shortly after smoking, meaning cannabis measurably shifts methylation activity in real time, not just theoretically.
Worth flagging honestly, since it hasn't been studied directly as one pathway, DNA methylation broadly, including at genes like CB1, depends on the same one carbon methylation cycle that B12 and MTHFR are part of, methionine, SAM, and the methyl donor pool methionine synthase maintains. No study tested B12 or MTHFR status specifically alongside CB1 methylation and cannabis induced psychosis in the same subjects, so this is a plausible mechanistic overlap based on shared biochemistry, not a proven three way connection.
Putting it together
Researchers describe cannabis as a component cause of psychosis, meaning it's neither necessary nor sufficient on its own, it interacts with other vulnerability factors to precipitate symptoms. That fits everything here. THC alone can cause paranoia in anyone through its own receptor mechanism. B12 deficiency alone can cause genuine psychiatric symptoms through disrupted neurotransmitter methylation. MTHFR alone just creates a folate processing bottleneck that feeds into that same pathway. Stack all three, impaired methylation from B12 deficiency, a genetic bottleneck from MTHFR making that deficiency harder to correct, and a receptor system that's itself methylation dependent and directly targeted by THC, and you have multiple overlapping reasons why cannabis could hit much harder in this specific combination than it would in someone without any of these factors.

Opinion/Editorial Why I'm hoping marijuana does get legalize.
13
Upvotes
My main point is I'm hoping we can expunge any marijuana charge including dismissed ones like mine.
I never used marijuana so I was falsely accused, let me start out by saying that I did take track in high school and they do require that you get tested.
Anyway when I was 22 I was still living with my mom who doesn't really let me be independent and doesn't let me get a job because she wants to collect my disability benefits so I was in a situation of my mom is forcing me to live with her.
Police found a marijuana plant in the backyard through their helicopter and plane searches, this happened in Indiana.
They searched the house and all that, and I ended up being charged with possession of marijuana and possession of paraphernalia, I don't use marijuana and I even said that to the police that I want no real part in what my mom does I don't approve of her marijuana use and I have wished to get away from her before that point.
They just wanted to accuse me so they could make money off of me, and I ended up getting a prosecution deferral so my mom had to pay close to $900 for my case alone but all in all they accused my sister and my mom all in all it was around $5,000 range.
My mom and dad are not open to getting an expungement, and all you have to do is sign paperwork but I don't have a way to print off the paperwork I need. So yeah no consideration for people of the amish faith I guess in Indiana.
The real thing is I've had people use that against me in harassment campaigns towards me, so it's still public information I've had people tell me things like cases get dismissed all the time it don't mean your innocent. And even if that is the case, the case itself was very dubious.

Essentially the problem I am running into is that once I take gummies/edibles and feel high that is it for the day. If I try taking more hours later they do nothing for me. Wondering how to remedy this?
For health reasons I dont smoke. I only take edibles. Open to other smokeless/vape-less options but gummies are easy and thats what I usually stick with. (Have used thc drinks as well. )
I am a daily participant and have a decently high tolerance for edibles, usually have to take 100mg nowadays.

Weed psycosis?
0
Upvotes
Hey I was wondering if anyone had any similar experiences or knows what happened to me.
One night I had maybe 2-3 drinks and afterwards had half a joint which I shared with a friend, I had been doing this sort of thing regularly for over a year with no issues. The only difference that night was I had quite bad back pain and thought the joint would ease the pain so I could do the 45 minute walk home.
Almost immediately after smoking I remember nothing but according to my friend I became delirious. He says I had no idea where I was or who he was, I was saying get me off this boat, I was calling him my mother, that sort of thing. At one point I was asleep for 30 mins then started hysterically laughing at nothing in my sleep for 5 mins. Every time he would try and get me to walk I would collapse and fall asleep again. It took us 6 hours to do the walk home because of this, my friend had no issues with the weed and said he was basically sober after an hour due to the stress of the situation.
When I look back it’s like I smoke and then fall asleep and wake up 6 hours later, I have completely no memory. Since this ive not smoked in a year. does anyone have any similar experiences or know why such a small amount of weed did this to me
Edit: As my friend was completely fine I think it’s unlikely it was laced. But since this happened I had severe disassociation for a while but it has since mostly gone.

Consider your lung health if your area has a code red air quality warning from the forest fires.

Not safe to smoke outside today, sorry. Hotbox a closet or bathroom inside instead.

Partial lung collapse, alternative methods of use
8
Upvotes
Hello, a couple days ago I had a spontaneous partial lung collapse, and will no longer be able to inhale smoke without serious risk of recollasping my lung again. What alternative methods of use do you guys recommend? I’ll miss smoking, but am not too familiar with other methods of use, besides edibles which I’ve never had much luck with.

Had an eddy for the first time as someone who’s never smoked or even been drunk and it was terrible

Hey all, so last night I decided to have an eddy at home while on call with one of my mates who regularly smokes and has edibles, we both had some and they were pretty small so we just decided to have all at once which was clearly stupid because about 2 hours after to taking it, it completely fucked me, at first I just couldn’t focus on the game we were playing but eventually the left side of my face and my throat started to go numb and I just began to get really nervous and shaky and i laid down I genuinely thought I was going to die, my heart was beating really fast I was struggling to breathe and I felt really dizzy, and it felt like I was just trapped in my own body, I could hear and think but whenever I tried to speak or move I just couldn’t, it felt like my head was just weighed down and I could barely move.
I managed to fall asleep but it was just an awful experience and now I have really bad derealisation and I’m just tired asf hopefully some sleep will fix it, but my friends told me I’ll have a great time and I’ll just be laughing and it’ll be fun.
So I was just wondering what may have happened? Did I just have too much or did I have a panic attack? Or can this just happen when you do it for the first time?
