As epidemic rages, ER study finds opioids no better than Advil and Tylenol

Yep! I tried edibles, joints, and vape pens from 3 different dispensaries in the bay area. The edibles and "free" joint I got from Airfield Supply Co. were the ones that effected me the least negatively.

Interesting, thanks for the heads up. Though, dosage may be the issue even being around smokers can be considered a low dose.

This was my thought as well, dose is most likely the issue. A non tolerant patient will respond to under 10mg thc

“Respond” is an understatement. 10mg THC, with no CBD, represents a typical edible from a dispensary, but as a small person with low tolerance and a fast metabolism, I’ve found that amount of THC by itself ends with me fearfully holding onto the Earth for dear life for a couple hours.

On the bright side, at dispensaries you can know precisely what you’re getting, so at least I can say “this weed will pleasantly reduce my anxiety and pain, that weed will blast me unwillingly into space” which is an option I never had before.
