There you go. This gets right to the heart of the matter.
Is there any acceptable use which does not constitute abuse?
IOW, can one get a 'high' without becoming an 'addict'?
Pot heads are a constant voluntary state as opposed to opiate and alcohol addicts who physically must have it or be sick
I didn't notice anything other than not being stoned
And stoned is a transition
At least for me
Smoke and get the initial giddiness and up feeling
Flatten out into sorta static low intensity less heightened awareness
Then food and sleepiness or wears off
If you don't smoke again that's it though medical folks claim pot chems in bed in fatty tissue a long time I did not feel high
I'd say within 48 hours it was like over nothing like not smoking for a year
But then if one wanted they could smoke all the time
Pot if you're accustomed is pretty easy to manage smoking a lot if if young and energetic and not overwhelmed with responsibilities
It's less debilitating than any drug I knew besides nicotine and caffeine
But if you're busy like I became you find less time for it
My wife drinks
Like most drinkers she hates pot even though she smoked when young
If she smoked id smoke late at night with her on weekends
Alcohol is much much stronger bait on the hook
And it gut hooks
Any daily weed smoker can quit without treatment or anything
A drunk or pillhead it's a whole nother ballgame
But I realize in blue states pot smokers suck
Can't change that
Not so in red states
Another observation: drunks tend to panic on good weed
