i did 100 mg/day for about 4 mos, then 200 for 2 more.
here’s the thing tho. i do not get ‘high’. ever. from anything. it’s my suspicion that if there is scar tissue in my head, it’s at the spot u need for the euphoria.
after the injury, at 6, i had seizures in the form of hallucinations for a decade. diff kinds of seizures are based on where the injury is. so, i assume my seeing things means i broke the part where u see things.
so, i had no gauge. it did get the wheels turning a bit too fast. so i quit, but the improvements remained. not sure an ordinary human could function on those doses. and likely it’s overkill.
i also had to find a strain that worked for me. it’s those terpenes and stuff. i did the vape thing to find a good 1. when i found the strain that led to my organizing my bedside table, i knew i had a winner. 😜

i still smoke. it just feels safer to me than edibles that i cant gauge. it has it’s impacts, but…
i mix it w a bit of tobacco, but i kicked an additional pack a day habit w the new year. equiv of about 4-5 cigs a day. straight weed irritates my throat. that’s part of the shogrens, i think. so if i can get some treatment for that, i might be able to at least ditch the tobacco.
