My buddy said that this was a full-on mind high, with his creativity and imagination firing on all cylinders.
Are you speaking from personal experience or did a close friend tell you;-)? Or is this something you read?
I use it for sleep. I don’t do gummies (too expensive). I use the oil. I use CDB oil as well and THC oil topically for arthritis.
By the time the Delta 8 kicks in hard, I am asleep.
We are seeing a lot of substance induced admissions in the hospitals. Surprisingly with 60 70 and 80 year old patients. I am surprised at the age of people trying THC. Some of it is under medical marijuana but some of it is also from these stories. I have researched it a lot so I know what I am facing with these patients.
Apparently in some agricultural bill passed in the last several years, it is legal to have and sell products with THC provided they see Uber 0.3% ratio by weight. These also must be products derived by hemp (as there is an agricultural use for this) as opposed to marijuana plant.
Because of this a lot of this loop hole was exploited and edible THC companies came on line. Originally starting with delta 8 which is a far less potent THC derivative various shops like smoke shops began selling. Recently there is an uptrend of delta 9 as this also can be passed through this loophole. Delta 9 is the principle molecule that gives the typical THC experience. So people are buying these gummies that weigh a couple grams that allow a milligrams woeful to weight of THC to be ingested. Unlike smoking which produces effects immediately and allows control of the experience we are seeing a lot of people who ingest a hell of a lot of THC feel no effect and consume more short of the time effects via ingestion would be felt. And they are getting a hell of a response.
After researching the toxicology of things apparently there is some loose difference between the type of THC effect on people. Some describe muscle relation and mild euphoria (the so called body high) and some experience the psychoactive effects of loosening of inhibition, euphoria and giddiness. The so called head high. According to research it’s not the delta enantiomer (this is related to potencey) but the plant base uses to procure the THC. Apparently a strain called indica is more body response and Sativa is more psychoactive. There are some hybrids that present both effects.
What is fascinating to me is that there is far more acknowledgment by patients that they are using THC. The question is has it always been so and there is just no taboo or counterculture anymore (like tattoos) or is there increasing use based on availability and social acceptance.
