one thing I noticed this morning is that while high last night, I don't recall thinking about US politics ONCE. that in itself is worth it!

This can be a wonderful thing

Enjoyed some Purple Haze last evening (on top of a Chong's Choice joint), and blasted music for a while...among it all, one of my favorite Willie songs - Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die!

Love that song! And ironically, I just ran out of Purple Haze. So far, the o let strain that makes me horny but damn does it work!! Of course my dispensary is out now that I want more.

Just tried some El Gato for the first time.
Got pretty stupido for a bit, but I'm all good now. Just happy and relaxed but still functioning.
Verdict: Me like-o El Gato!

I have not smoked El Gato before but it's so fun trying new strains.

DK, I got your cannachocoberries right HERE!

(next trip to my place, I shall procure a tin for you )

Wow! That El Gato went south on me real fast! Went from feeling great to really bad headache as I'm coming down. Glad I only got a gram to try.

and thoughts, just a quick tip: if you want to use weed to escape, I don't recommend. if you want to use it to enhance, I do recommend.

you were also asking about mood. It doesn't make my anxiety or depression worse, but I do find the next day, later on in the day, I can be quite irritable. can't wait for the 5pm hulk smash!

I also find it makes me stop drinking. last night, for example, I was having a couple whiskeys, and I smoked, I had a beer, and that was it. usually i don't have an off switch. weed is my off swtich for some reason. or the switch moves, I guess, from drinking to eating.

Thanks dude.
What's hulk smash?
On your previous post, is it possible to survive munchies without eating? I don't want to get fat haha.
Also, yeah it is to enhance. I am feeling very spiritual lately. Marley, Yoga, Exercise.

I forgot to say I am on 30g of Lexapro. Internet pages say the drug has no interaction with weed although if I suffer anxiety it can induce a panic attack if you try weed.

Dude, cos' you can't be high all day all the time, your anxiety will not go away if you self-medicate. When the high is over, it often comes right on back. You need to get in your own head and do the work - not layer it with THC. I recommend you invest in counseling and learn to re-wire your brain to think (and therefore feel) less anxious. Good luck my Australian brother!

I am actually not anxious as much as I was before medication. I have been in a great mood lately (gym followed by cold showers help) so this is not to self medicate, more to enhance my natural high.

I have been smoking weed on and off since I was 14. I am now 42. Suffered from depression and anxiety for the last 20. There was a time where smoking would make me freak out. Like thoughts so deep that I would get stressed out (I recall Eddie saying something similar-he had to quit as it started taking his mind places he didn't like). So I just didn't. Then I tried it again at a party and i was fine. Smoke occasionally, just a few tokes, to watch a comedy special or something. Did so last night. It was lovely. But I eat way too much when high. Like, I KNOW I'm full, but I keep eating. it's gross. last night I hate a bag and a half of doritos. blech.

some of my friends say they get super horny on weed (girls and guys). Never had that sensation before. I just get ridiculously lazy. I don't smoke with the intention of needing a good sleep, because I sleep just fine, but it does assist. last night my sleep was HEAVY.

I don't understand most of what is discussed in this thread. I have a pipe, and some weed. I don't know what strand it is, it has no special flavour; that part seems foreign to me. this thread sounds like the Starbucks of marijuana.

I don't smoke outside the house. I get WAY too paranoid and uncomfortable. i used to smoke anytime, anywhere (even at work when I used to work security-that was FUN). can't even smoke at my neighbour's down the road. Need to be in my SPACE. Preferebly even just in my basement. Anywhere else I feel out of place.

Just to expand on a couple points you've made. There have been a few times that I've felt I've gotten wayyyyyy too high. It freaks me out for a while but there's still part of my brain that triggers a safe response - I'll tell myself, while I'm freaking out, that I'll be just fine in 20 minutes or so. Usually this happens when I haven't smoked in a while and I take my normal 3-4 hits, instead of 1 or 2 and see where I'm at before going further. Or if I try wax... I really don't recommend anyone do that unless you are a seasoned veteran of the bud. That shit will absolutely blast you. I'm like you, I just stick to bud and a pipe. Easiest way to go, imo.

As for other reactions, I am in the super horny camp and I know others that say they get that way, too. I also know many people who say they've never felt that, either. One thing I don't get is the munchies. Not once, ever. I'm really glad for that.
Point being, for the OP, is that we all react differently to it. If you try it, take a hit, wait 5 minutes and see where you are. If you think you might need another, take a small one, wait another 5 minutes (prob won't take that long). You can always get higher if you want to, but if you get too high from the start, you can't undo it, just have to wait it out.

Noted. I was thinking this, to take it slow.

How long does it take to leave your system?
Specifically, how long until I can drive my car again.

Haha good stuff..yea if you don't want to feel lazy get some sativa. My age and stats are similar to yours minus the depression (I think).. I went through the same "guy" for years who had nice strong weed. We had a falling out yada yada and i started hooking up through a guy that only dealt with good sativa. I later found out through another friend the old guy only would get indica since that's what he preferred. Man the difference is astonishing! Now I smoke and it's energizing. My wife is like "why are you cleaning the house at 10pm?". My point is you don't turn into mush and melt into the couch. You should try sativa I feel like I missed out all these years.

I want that sativa.
Then to try it whilst working on songwriting.

Depends on how much you smoke and how often for it to leave your system. Typical it takes longer for it to leave if you smoke regularly, but it's really a crapshoot. It can be as little as a week up to a month or more. That is, unfortunately, one of the downsides to smoking.
What type of testing is done by cops if they stop you while driving?

Looks like police in Australia are using the "oral fluid sample" (i.e. saliva) roadside testing for THC. That's good news, if they're going to test at all, since THC lasts for a much shorter period of time in the saliva compared to the urine and more accurately reflects recent use (i.e. use within hours, not within days to weeks). Not a perfect test in terms of sensitvity and specificity, but positive tests need to be confirmed by more accurate measures non-roadside before charges are approved.

Edit - they also use the oral fluid testing for MDMA and meth

Saliva test to detect the presence of drugs in the system.

Correct.
If drugs are detected road side then you are taken to the police station for further testing, if you test positive at the police station you're in trouble.

Thanks for the info. We're not that advanced here in the States yet. At least not in my state. I'm going to have to do some research on salival drug tests.
At my job, if we are involved in any type of safety incident, we are tested but have to give a urine sample. From the things mentioned here, it sounds like the saliva test would be more appropriate to see if someone is high on the job. To me, it's completely unfair that I'd have to give a urine sample if I smoked weed on a Saturday night in January (i.e. not at work nor going to work) then knocked over the shelf at my desk on Valentine's Day.

I'm about to send off a friendly email to Chongschoice.com about Tommy's visage not appearing on each joint's paper (inconsequential, but gives a smile while puffing!), and non-conformity of the joints (one way short, one way long). I figure there's a set amount for each package and then they just roll it out. But c'mon, quality control!

Still, the green itself is absolutely excellent.

I wish I'd thought through the snack factor more clearly; however, there is a crunchy peanut butter / chocolate pudding thing in the fridge that is calling my name.
