You can only vote on one answer.

So I've been a regular smoker since I was in my early 20s. Im definitely what most people would call a pot head or a hippie lol because I like to infuse my foods with weed. you can make a whole meal with weed butter and its amazing I did that one year. I mainly use it for my chronic pain. I would lose my mind otherwise. So I'm curious who others here enjoys weed. how you prefer to use it. I use topicals, tinctures infused oil or butter and I smoke. so what do y'all do? When I do smoke I use dabs. I prefer it over flower. it's just cleaner and it's a stronger high. you don't need as much.

I have been a full time consumer since 1996 when I was 19. Dawn to dawn and on and on I hit the bong and blunts and bubblers as well. Then I switched to concentrates about 20 years ago when my chronic pain syndrome began to get really serious. It was really helpful and helped my pain management meds work better. As well as helping my anxiety and appetite when my pain level left me feeling like I didn’t want anything to do with food.
I don’t miss anything about smoking it. As I find vaporization has so many benefits. Occasionally I use edibles to help when I’m not in a good position for using a vaporizer and torch. I vehemently dislike vape pens and the stuff that comes in cartridges is really bad for the lungs 🫁. I’ve already had issues with my tolerance and after taking a few breaks as well as I’ve enjoyed the return experience of medicating without a tolerance, in the past 4 years.
However I’ve actually not had any cannabis in my system for over a year now. I’m sure I will start up again but I don’t have enough cash flow for my usual intake and my other expenses plus my bike habit is super expensive atm. So that’s my story in a nutshell.

@Sassychick420 I have been that way for decades(2) now and I was convinced that it was the only way to get food down. However I did notice something interesting when I stopped vaporizing concentrates I started noticing that my food seems to be a lot more flavorful. I just can’t say for certain because I am also eating much better food than I was when I was a major intake consumer. I don’t doubt that I coated my tastebuds with a thin layer of vaporized oily terpene resin and it really doesn’t matter because the benefits far exceed the cons. I actually was thinking about getting some concentrates this week and starting again because of my pain level has been really keeping me from a lot of things lately.
I just don’t like paying the legal dispensary prices and the only connections that I have to the grey market are 4+ hours away. I will be patient and see if I can’t get a hold of someone later on this month. There’s just nothing like a few good dabs to get through the day. And then a few more at night. I prefer working out with cannabis in my system. The cost is really the only drawback.
I hope you’re doing well and having a pleasant evening or morning or afternoon wherever you are. 😊☺

@RunTheJulz I hear ya. seriously good luck hun

@Sassychick420 thank you 😊☺
I know I will be back to full time normal intake levels before I get surgery to remove and replace my titanium lumbar fusion. The benefits of appetite stimulation will definitely be needed for that. Plus I tend to not get frustrated (with my life and my pain) As I often feel better when I can just take a dab and chill.
May I ask you what your chronic pain is from ? It’s totally understandable if you’re not interested in sharing or if you prefer to message me in private about it.
