    Literally every edible horror story I’ve heard starts with “I took one but I wasn’t feeling it, so I took another one…”

    I avoided this mistake by giving up (I only had two with me anyway). It took six hours to feel my buzz and it only lasted a few minutes.

    Well it really didn’t work for me. My psychiatrist told me it’s not impossible since my medication do make me resistant to some types of drugs.

    I was in amsterdam and since all my friends were smoking (i don’t know how to smoke anything and am super alergic) I decided to joi the fun and had an edible. They gave me only half, but a couple of hours later nothing had happened so I ate the other half. Well… still nothing happened. So I just went to sleep.

    Btw I ate a couple of magic mushrooms (ate them raw, so idk) and also, nothing… So this was tested with a couple different of drugs.

    To this day I never had the “on drugs” experience (besides my medication that is awesome lol)

      SSRIs and the like will mess with shrooms. It varies by person, like all this stuff, but you generally need like twice as much. On meds, I got a nice high out of 4.5g. Off meds, I get hit harder than that from 2g. Shroom potency also varies a lot, so it’s not that odd to just have a dud.

      Edibles took me several tries to feel anything, but did eventually just start working. They don’t for some people, so that is possible, but it could just take a few tries. I think it was 4-5 for me.

    The first several times I tried edibles they did nothing. I didn’t know that can just happen to people. So each time, I waited a few days and tried again. But, figuring the last one did literally nothing, I doubled the dose the next time.

    I paused at 40mg, wondering if that was really a good idea. It wasn’t. When it hit, time literally stopped. A minute felt like an hour. But I had only myself to blame and I was super high, so I thought it was funny as fuck. I got ready for bed, giggling to myself constantly, then passed the fuck out.

    It’s still funny to me, and it always reminds me that mindset is huge. That was the first time I ever tried weed and I could have freaked out, but I just accepted my mistake and laughed at how stupid I was. It makes it a good memory.

    I already made that mistake once. Incredibly shitty night. Half of one would have had me zoning the fuck out and I ate two …

    Pro tip: First time you do edibles, take someone who had edibles before or at least made a joint before. Don’t just be among other other noobs like me.

      alternatively, maybe don’t be with people with much higher tolerance than yourself. my first time with edibles my friends who were huge potheads and about half my size were taking like 80mg, so I said, “oh, I should be able to do like 50 then, right?” and they did not tell me no

        Sounds like my first time with edibles too lmao

        How many days until you were able to speak a coherent sentence after that?

          I was fine the next day, but I remember almost nothing about that night, and what I do remember from early on in the evening is that I was worried I would get lost on the way to the bathroom
