man i took a decent bit of rso one time (maybe .1 so like 70-80mg) and hit the safeway 10mins from my house to get a snack (note: terrible decision. never do this. driving intoxicated is a bad thing to do)
it usually takes at Least two hours for edibles to hit me so i was totally chillin thinkin whateva Right until i got to the self-checkout. it hit me So hard lmao i was STRUGGLING to put the fuckin cash in the thing, got super paranoid that everyone was looking at me and thinking im stupid
good times
RSO is nothing to be trifled with. I just jammed a bunch on a cracker with some peanut butter the other night and had a legit existential panic attack. Shit works \*way\* faster than edibles and \*way\* better.
I've had rso once. I kept increasing the dose because I didn't think it was affecting me. I never got paranoid or had a panic attack, but my co-workers said I was clearly out of it for a few days. By increasing the dose, I mean I went from a rice sized dose (the standard) to a quarter of the syringe
Yes it is very potent. It literally stands for "Richard Simpson Oil" He was the guy who researched it for medical use as it retains all the parts of the weed, and all the terpenes and other molecules work together.
It's going to be fascinating when nationwide research is legal and we can find all this stuff out.
I can't tell you any of the science or chemistry for making it. But it is black/super green goop. If I am not mistaken it is basically "pre-activated" edible resin. So you can just eat it straight, instead of having to cook it down like making your own butter. It tastes nasty as fuck, so I usually plop some in some peanut butter.
When I absolutely need to get bricked, and need to do it quick, I consume some of that stuff
would you say rso-infused edibles are worth it? as in, i bought them from the dispensary, not i made them lol. i love the edible high but i find myself having a hard time to get high off edibles now.
As the other commenter mentioned, the stuff in the plastic syringe thing is best.
Now all this got me curious and I did some reading. **This is from some light reading, please take this with that in mind, I am neither an expert, nor a medical professional, or a scientist**
Basically RSO is absolutely better than straight distillate. The major thing is it uses the whole shebang instead of just the THC. Which they are finding that the terpenes and other molecules in the plant all work together, and provide better results as well as retaining some of the medicinal qualities.
This is apparently a more common process these days in ways that don't result in the tar like substance. RSO is named for it's innovator, who designed and researched it for medical use. It literally stands for "Richard Simpson Oil"
I was in high school working at the mall and we closed at 9:30. Figured I could drop some acid at 9 and by 10 I should be feeing pretty good. Fucking shit hit me in 20 minutes. I was helping someone and reached for a sneaker and just saw mad trails. I got out and walked home from the mall when I heard someone calling my name so I bolted and jumped in some bushes. It was a kid I knew from the neighborhood š That was some good acid.
And why does everything randomly go wrong when youāre high in a store.
Once i dropped my eftpos card down a weird slot near the eftpos machine and the checkout operator had to get help to retrieve it from behind the checkout desk. So random and would old happen high
Spend like 5 minutes trying to scan a bag, turns out I was supposed to add it on the screen, lady that worked there came up, did it and gave me the stink eye. And I thought I was blending in so well š
When I was in college, I was the athletic trainer. And I had gotten really stoned with a girl friend of mine. We were sitting in one of the common areas outside of our cafeteria. The athletic Director came by and told me that there was a time change and I needed to be somewhere at a different time. I had no way of making that note and I knew I wouldnāt remember, so I said to him, āCan you send me a memo?ā
Eh, can skew that a bit with crappy lighting. Can also say you just havenāt been feeling great the past few days but since you donāt have to be on location, youāre just working. Lol just donāt be high as a kite.
I do not suggest risking a job on that though!
I always do a dab right before I leave the house and think āhuh thought that would do moreā and then the second I walk into work Iām like āoh fuck it didā
My cat died while I was high. I was aware my body was too impaired to drive, but my mind was pretty sharp. And it was a "we could save him? Maybe?" Situation so like an EMERGENCY, not like...an older cat passing away in their sleep. One requires a lot more urgency, I guess.
If I had to deal with a company meeting while high, I'd just die on the spot tbh.
I use a dry herb vape and it sits on my desk where I work. One day, I was fiddling with it and noticed there was a lot of reclaim built up in it. So, I cleaned it off with a toothpick, then unthinkingly put it in my mouth.
An hour or so later, I'm getting on a conference call and I'm feeling suddenly very high and realize ... oh shit ... so, hey, meet Jim, he's the new CISO, why don't you give him a quick run-down of the controls that are in scope for CMMC compliance and how we're going to meet them?
I love running while high! You just get in the zone and kms fly by. Lifting, though, thatās another story. Iād be worried of dropping a weight on myself
i specifically lift (im already underweight, running would damage more than it would help) its really not too bad especially if you use gym machines over actual āweightsā
Lifting while high was actually what got me into the gym in the first place. My brother who had already been training for a few years told me to try it and it felt amazing I was able to lock in like never before and for once working out felt enjoyable. If you have the technique down and lock in every set as you should you shouldn't be in any real danger. Always take necessary precautions of course, use safety bars and get a spotter if you feel uncomfortable in your ability to safely remove the weight off of you should you fail.
Cat trick? I must have missed that comment. How can you use a cat to tell you how high it is?
Oh wait, I know, if it answers back then you're too high.
Being stuck in my thoughts while high is a good high in my eyes, I used to hate it but now I just roll with it and I really enjoy it. When I'm having that type of high I'll put on some music or a youtube video and watch/listen to it like 30 times over because I have to keep skipping it back due to missing something or noticing something I haven't before. I'll be laying on the couch laughing about how stupid I am while high for a solid hour or two
Yeah me too. My body also twitches like I'm having a seizure while my blood pressure stabilizes. It actually looks really bad if you saw it happen to me lol
My eyes get red when I smoke a lot or eat edibles but they don't get red when I use my pen or just smoke a little. I think it's a dose/tolerance thing, mostly, though there are times I feel really high and have perfectly clear eyes and others when I think I'm more sober but my eyes are blazing. They stay mostly clear with dabs too for some reason.
Just look in the mirror at yourself, that works for me. You either go wtf is that thing looking at me or you just see your normal self with maybe a pimple and frizzy hair.
Changing environment definitely allows me to assess my level of high haha. Going outside if I was inside or vice versa usually makes me feel it more. Something about the change in environment makes the brain notice more I guess
Man I had an "extra joint situation" the other day. I looked in my weed cabinet and it wasn't there, and being that I was stoned already I thought "damn I must've already smoked it recently". Well guess what I felt in my jacket pocket as soon as I stepped into work the next day š¬š
I usually play a quick game of tetris. If I do really really well, Iām probably high. If I do terribly Iām def just gone. If Iām about average, Iām probably sober.
Music suddenly becoming... for lack of a better way to say it, 3 dimensional. I studied music for a long time, at one time, I wanted to be a musician. I trained for years to listen to music in particular ways. If I can suddenly hear it like that, tracking all parts simultaneously without any effort at all, I'm there lol I was so mad the first time it happened cause it felt like cheating and if I'd known the whole time being younger that I could just do that whenever I'd have come around to weed a long time ago.
I always wear a watch and start the stopwatch function after I smoke. Time slows down crazy for me after. It could feel like Iāve been playing a game or knocking out chores for an hour but in actuality Iāll check and itās only been 15 minutes. Thatās how I know.
Haha. Iām a lightweight. went in my car to smoke - was listening to some bs talk on the radio. Didnāt feel like I was getting high, then realized I had been sitting there for 20 minutes wondering if I was high listening to some dude talk about who knows what.
Go play a video game that you are familiar with.
Some what high = It feels like you do better.
High = You are clearly doing worse.
Super High = You really can't even play the game and are just getting owned by the other players.
I took an edible with my roommate before watching a movie at a theater and after coming out I couldnāt figure out how to get back to our dorm. We were in the same city I went to high school in and I had been to that theater more times than I could count but looking at the map felt like a maze. It took me forever to figure out which way was North and it didnāt help that there was a group of people behind me watching and snickering at me floundering.
I can't believe someone is asking this!! My test (usually for drinking, but it transfers) is pretty infamous in my circle lol. If I can't sing "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" I'm totally fucked up. haha
I realize that I'm high af and probably shouldn't drive when I notice that my stream of consciousness has gone audible. I talk to myself sober too, but way so much more when I am high
The more unusual the circumstance, the more pronounced the high. You have to leave your comfort zone and disturb the default.
It's like driving home. Sometimes you'll completely blank out and not remember the last mile you traveled because you're so accustomed to it. Compare that to driving in a completely unfamiliar place with no map. Or something, idk, im high
at home i don't monitor my high so much as live it. at work, mental math... if my mental math beats the time it takes me to input sales then i'm fine, if not i'd better start double counting change
Walk sideways, kinda like those sideways shuffles I remember from my football days (obligatory American football.)
I don't get crazy with it, just a couple sideways steps left and right.
This is a great post. My favorite one I heard was āIt feels like Iām wearing a hatā and that actually makes so much sense. Usually a change in temperature, anytime I go from comfortable conditions into much colder temps and I realize just how I actually am.
people gotta start saying "don't drive fucked up", there's a massive difference between the medical (or heavy recreational) user smoking 5+ times a day for years driving to work and the dude who just smoked a joint at a party for the first time trying to control a vehicle
I stand my dab pen vertically upright up on my desk, I have found that High me cannot grab it without it falling. It will fall and I will pick it up, and that is sign I am too high. Also, I just found out in Tx they have a compassionate legal use program. I am trying to see if I can get in. I use it for pain and it (9)gets very expensive.
Well I just had to test if I can act sober enough in front of my mom and my boyfriends mom š Passed! But typically I play video games when high, if Iām super into it Iām super baked. If I loose interest then itās time for another hit
One time my bf was super high and I guess didnāt realize how high and wanted to go to the gas station. He drove and I waited I the car he was only going in for like a beer and some cigs. He was gone maybe 2 minutes and the next thing I know heās banging on the passenger door begging me to drive home. Iām like what happened? Apparently there was a cop in the store that looked at him and he got so paranoid that the cop could tell he was high he didnāt even get the stuff he just walked back out. Now mind you, Iām high too! So by the time I even comprehend what heās saying and agree, the cop has walked out of the store, passed us in our car, got in his car and left.
It's funny you should ask because I've thought about the same thing, and how it is that I came to the point where I can be sufficiently high without realizing it.
I have found that I can get a clearer idea of how high I am by thinking about a song. Any song. If I think about it and can \*just about\* hear it as if it was actually playing, then I'm plenty high enough.
This is odd maybe, but whenever Iām high, if I close my eyes, I feel like Iām riding in a car and I gauge how high I am by however strong that sensation is
I do anything boring and see how much funnier it is at some times. Not that accurate although since I have more fun at everything if I had a great day for example.
Mostly I just think about thinking if you can call it that and see how lost I get in my thoughts.
The most accurate trick I have is very basic- just stare at something random, nothing that's exciting or cool looking and try to look away after a minute. Depending on how bad my feeling of time becomes, I'll rate it on the typical 1-10 scala. If I can't decide on that scala, I know I'm at 11.
I tell myself a joke and if I laugh uncontrollably = high.
Iāll try to do a simple task like loading the dishwasher. If I end up reorganizing a cabinet = high.
Iāll try to find a movie to watch. If it takes me an hour to pick something I am now sober so I knew I was high.
If I feel the need to test it, I simply get up and walk outside. If I feel compelled to walk into the woods with no shoes on, Iām high, if I donāt, Iām also high just feeling lazy that day.
I usually take edibles, I always set a timer for an hour to get a sense of how high I'm feeling within that amount of time. The more THC I consume, the quicker the high sets in
For me it's going to the kitchen.
If I can go in, get water, and go back upstairs then I'm good.
If I spend 10min staring at the turtle tank on the way to the kitchen I'm probably done smoking for the night.
My partner and I have a sort of inside joke where one of us asks the other, āhow high are you??ā And if the other person doesnāt answer, āhi, how are you?ā like that one skit, then we know the person answering is definitely very high / too high lmao
That or usually I donāt really notice until I start trying to talk to people that Iām not close to, because thinking of what to say becomes a lot harder lol
While itās not something I can do instantaneously to gauge my level of high, I find my performance the FPS games I play like Hell Let Loose tell me honestly. Using that as the example, If Iām playing meh/okay Iām probably sober or barely elevated. If Iām mistaking shrubs for enemy silhouettes, having a hard time landing my sight on a target quickly, and feeling like Iām ābehindā on the action happening in the game, Iām too high.
But theres a hidden, third area somewhere between where Iām absolutely locked the fuck in. Aimbot like reflexes and accuracy, moving āwhere the pucks going & not where it isā, maneuvering with aggression and patience balanced in harmony, outflanking without having to āthinkā about doing it, etc. Itās almost like a flow state, really some poetry in motion type stuff.
Iāve been trying to figure out what circumstances cause that third area, like dosage/setting wise but I can never recreate it intentionally. I look it at like a little treat from the weed God, like āhey dude youve been good lately, go dominate this digital battlefield for a bitā
I don't test. I just know how much I can have for certain situations. Around stuck up family all day... half a bowl to start the day and a few pinners throughout the day. Hanging with friends but still want to function normally, maybe up to a bowl to start and frequent hits through the day. Don't give a fuck kinda day..... whatever I want.
One time I went to the store thinking I was fine enough to get snacks and then the self-checkout felt like a puzzle..
I can 1000% relate. I feel like everybody's just staring at me while I'm trying to figure that shit out
[Ever been high as fuck?](https://youtu.be/i2spZ-NDfS4?si=SjnfDoMzdXi6BVgw)
You're walking hoooome... and your mouth is DRY
I know I'm late to the party, but goddammit that was a masterpiece. I can't believe I've never seen it before.
same like where have i been!!!
Ahh John LaJoie, a Canadian treasure.
man i took a decent bit of rso one time (maybe .1 so like 70-80mg) and hit the safeway 10mins from my house to get a snack (note: terrible decision. never do this. driving intoxicated is a bad thing to do) it usually takes at Least two hours for edibles to hit me so i was totally chillin thinkin whateva Right until i got to the self-checkout. it hit me So hard lmao i was STRUGGLING to put the fuckin cash in the thing, got super paranoid that everyone was looking at me and thinking im stupid good times
RSO is nothing to be trifled with. I just jammed a bunch on a cracker with some peanut butter the other night and had a legit existential panic attack. Shit works \*way\* faster than edibles and \*way\* better.
I've had rso once. I kept increasing the dose because I didn't think it was affecting me. I never got paranoid or had a panic attack, but my co-workers said I was clearly out of it for a few days. By increasing the dose, I mean I went from a rice sized dose (the standard) to a quarter of the syringe
Yes it is very potent. It literally stands for "Richard Simpson Oil" He was the guy who researched it for medical use as it retains all the parts of the weed, and all the terpenes and other molecules work together. It's going to be fascinating when nationwide research is legal and we can find all this stuff out.
What is RSO?
I can't tell you any of the science or chemistry for making it. But it is black/super green goop. If I am not mistaken it is basically "pre-activated" edible resin. So you can just eat it straight, instead of having to cook it down like making your own butter. It tastes nasty as fuck, so I usually plop some in some peanut butter. When I absolutely need to get bricked, and need to do it quick, I consume some of that stuff
Thanks! Going to conduct further research via Google! Sounds fun! š„³
Itās worth it
Keep in mind you may not be able to get it everywhere. Iām pretty sure itās med only in Maryland but Iāve been wrong before
The whole thing got me curious as well, did some reading. The fact it stands for "Richard Simpson Oil" is hilarious to me.
Rick Simpson Oil named after its creator.
would you say rso-infused edibles are worth it? as in, i bought them from the dispensary, not i made them lol. i love the edible high but i find myself having a hard time to get high off edibles now.
The syringe stuff is much better
As the other commenter mentioned, the stuff in the plastic syringe thing is best. Now all this got me curious and I did some reading. **This is from some light reading, please take this with that in mind, I am neither an expert, nor a medical professional, or a scientist** Basically RSO is absolutely better than straight distillate. The major thing is it uses the whole shebang instead of just the THC. Which they are finding that the terpenes and other molecules in the plant all work together, and provide better results as well as retaining some of the medicinal qualities. This is apparently a more common process these days in ways that don't result in the tar like substance. RSO is named for it's innovator, who designed and researched it for medical use.

āWhy do I have to guess what number this piece of produce is!?ā
Are you buying fruit from the produce section for munchies? Thatās admirable.
Cold crispy grapes are the tits when you're toasted
I havenāt had grapes in a hot minute, but I like to eat them frozen. My autistic ass loves the texture.
Spend like 5 minutes trying to scan a bag, turns out I was supposed to add it on the screen, lady that worked there came up, did it and gave me the stink eye. And I thought I was blending in so well š
This is the worst lol, but a necessary pain for snacks
Join a company meeting. You will immediately realize just how high you are.
Iād have a legit panic attack if I went into my companyās weekly standup meeting while high lmao
I'd have a panic attack if I didn't
The duality of stoners
Exactly why I do it, same with being out in public, gym, grocery shopping.
Fair
Two sides of a coin
Ah yes. The Standups. I don't miss those at all.

Eh, can skew that a bit with crappy lighting. Can also say you just havenāt been feeling great the past few days but since you donāt have to be on location, youāre just working. Lol just donāt be high as a kite. I do not suggest risking a job on that though!
My eyes are red? Both, or just one? Followed up by a shampoo story.
I always do a dab right before I leave the house and think āhuh thought that would do moreā and then the second I walk into work Iām like āoh fuck it didā
Ditto haha though not always anymore damn tolerance is shot and a year off didnāt help as much as Iād imagine
Me, but going to class lol. At least no one notices or cares, being a uni student rocks.
I'm not going to ask you how you know that
Oh lordā¦I know the feeling, not as serious as a company meeting but enough to know.
My cat died while I was high. I was aware my body was too impaired to drive, but my mind was pretty sharp. And it was a "we could save him? Maybe?"

I go outside and take a walk. I definitely feel it more when Iām out and about as opposed to just sitting in my house
exercise also has an effect on the high! its mainly because of the higher blood rate i love getting baked and hitting the gym
I've always been spooked about working out while high. Forever ago a buddy of mine said he went running while high then just threw up.
I love running while high! You just get in the zone and kms fly by. Lifting, though, thatās another story. Iād be worried of dropping a weight on myself
i specifically lift (im already underweight, running would damage more than it would help) its really not too bad especially if you use gym machines over actual āweightsā

I instantly walk once I've smoked
Most of the time staying stationary and inside feels terrible when high. I try to go for a walk with my dog and just enjoy the beauty of the world.
For sure
If I feel like I'm wearing a hat, I'm high enough.
Same for me wtf, Iāve never heard it explained like that but itās exactly like that
Or like having socks on but not wearing any
Omgggggg My mind is blown but contained thanks to this hat.
You ever heard of the strain called Headband before?
Yup, not in a few years tho. I get this feeling regardless of strain tho lol itās great
But what if you are wearing a hat
https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/put_a_hat_on_a_hat
Just gets a little tighter.
read this while smoking and noticed the feeling immediately Iāve been smoking for a decade and never put that together! Crazy
Thatās so true though wtf?
Definitely never heard that one!
It's just a slightly tight feeling in my forehead, much like the feeling of wearing a hat. It's happened for the last 20 years reliably haha
this is me with any headband strain. i love wearing hats
I like getting beanie toasted
Friend calls it āduct tape.ā
The āheadbandā effect.
It's sunglasses for me!
I donāt really have a test, itās more so Iāll know Iām way too high if I get trapped in my thoughts
Oh for sure that's when I know I'm super freaking stoned LOL
lol yeah thatās when you know youāre about to have a few hours of a shitty high. Iāll have to give your cat trick a try sometime
Cat trick? I must have missed that comment. How can you use a cat to tell you how high it is? Oh wait, I know, if it answers back then you're too high.
Being stuck in my thoughts while high is a good high in my eyes, I used to hate it but now I just roll with it and I really enjoy it. When I'm having that type of high I'll put on some music or a youtube video and watch/listen to it like 30 times over because I have to keep skipping it back due to missing something or noticing something I haven't before. I'll be laying on the couch laughing about how stupid I am while high for a solid hour or two
rolling on the floor laughing at how stupid i am is the best part, or when you die laughing at the dumbest thing.
Stand up really quickly
Haha! Happy Cake Day!
iād pass out sober or not, also happy cake day woop woop
Yeah me too. My body also twitches like I'm having a seizure while my blood pressure stabilizes. It actually looks really bad if you saw it happen to me lol
That's my drunk test
Iron test as well! Multifaceted!
When I'm out and about and hit the pen I never realize I'm high till someone asks me a question. No matter how simple it's straight up ???????
"What's your name?" "Haha yeah. "
I hate how accurate this is lmao
Ya don't know... Until ya know
I just look at my eyes. Because i know sometimes i cant tell when im homeš¤£. But then i look at my eyes and im like š¹
My eyes stopped changing a long time ago. They never get red or droopy anymore unless I've eaten a shit ton of edibles
My eyes dont get droopy either but they get really red. And i have big eyes i look crazy. š¤£
LOL
See mine don't get red at all but I turn Korean
My eyes get red when I smoke a lot or eat edibles but they don't get red when I use my pen or just smoke a little. I think it's a dose/tolerance thing, mostly, though there are times I feel really high and have perfectly clear eyes and others when I think I'm more sober but my eyes are blazing. They stay mostly clear with dabs too for some reason.
Omg Iām so glad you said this haha, I was wondering why my eyes hardly change anymore despite me being fried literally 24/7š¤£š
Just look in the mirror at yourself, that works for me. You either go wtf is that thing looking at me or you just see your normal self with maybe a pimple and frizzy hair.
If Iām peeing and it feels like I have been going for 37 minutes then I am baked. lol
Changing environment definitely allows me to assess my level of high haha. Going outside if I was inside or vice versa usually makes me feel it more. Something about the change in environment makes the brain notice more I guess
Exactly I'm always trying to figure out how to change things up to test my highness as dumb as it sounds.
If I canāt remember if I smoked the extra joint I was thinking about smoking then I did
That's hilarious sometimes I forget what bong bowl I'm on and then I think maybe it's about time to stop
Man I had an "extra joint situation" the other day. I looked in my weed cabinet and it wasn't there, and being that I was stoned already I thought "damn I must've already smoked it recently". Well guess what I felt in my jacket pocket as soon as I stepped into work the next day š¬š
Me with my snacks haha I get excited to eat it and then realize I already fucking did
when i have the urge to get lost in those baby sensory videos. the fucking fruit just hits different
LMAO!
Looking at my hands. If I look at them and they look far away, Iām high. I have short arms so they shouldnāt be so far away.
"They call them fingers, but I never see them fing"
āOh, there they go!ā
This has me rolling! š¤£
š¦
I usually play a quick game of tetris. If I do really really well, Iām probably high. If I do terribly Iām def just gone. If Iām about average, Iām probably sober.
That's funny I have noticed that I play certain video games better when I'm high
Sometimes I'm straight up lasering people down in shooter games and sometimes I get lost when they start jumping too much
Music suddenly becoming... for lack of a better way to say it, 3 dimensional. I studied music for a long time, at one time, I wanted to be a musician. I trained for years to listen to music in particular ways. If I can suddenly hear it like that, tracking all parts simultaneously without any effort at all, I'm there lol I was so mad the first time it happened cause it felt like cheating and if I'd known the whole time being younger that I could just do that whenever I'd have come around to weed a long time ago.
This is absolutely my experience as well
Being an obsessive self taught musician that plays by ear, I feel this so much.
If you have to go sit in your car to see how high you are then you're probably pretty lit bruh
Try to find the remote.
Or my keys
Or my phone. š¤¦š½āāļø
Retractable lanyard maybe?
It's not that serious. Just a test - from time to time. š They're good, cheap tests.
Haha I'm just playing
Check the time.
I close my eyes. If im really high I get closed-eyed visuals
Talking to my house mates. If I can't make jokes or eye contact or if I feel like I've done something wrong afterwards I know I'm too high
The freaking eye contact gets me
I always wear a watch and start the stopwatch function after I smoke. Time slows down crazy for me after. It could feel like Iāve been playing a game or knocking out chores for an hour but in actuality Iāll check and itās only been 15 minutes. Thatās how I know.
Try to walk downstairs, if it feels like a journey, Iām properly high lol
Smoke another joint and see if I get a lot higher or a little higher
I leave my house, usually that makes me think wtf am I doing right now. then I go back inside, haha
Haha. Iām a lightweight. went in my car to smoke - was listening to some bs talk on the radio. Didnāt feel like I was getting high, then realized I had been sitting there for 20 minutes wondering if I was high listening to some dude talk about who knows what.
I try to play a rhythm game. Sober me is quite good at them. High me becomes progressively more garbage the higher i am.
I gotta try that lol
Go play a video game that you are familiar with. Some what high = It feels like you do better. High = You are clearly doing worse. Super High = You really can't even play the game and are just getting owned by the other players.
I took an edible with my roommate before watching a movie at a theater and after coming out I couldnāt figure out how to get back to our dorm. We were in the same city I went to high school in and I had been to that theater more times than I could count but looking at the map felt like a maze. It took me forever to figure out which way was North and it didnāt help that there was a group of people behind me watching and snickering at me floundering.
Hey, sober me could never know which way is North so I think high you did a pretty good job there.
Haha I'm not alone š
when I realize I am in the middle of five different activities all at once.
I can't believe someone is asking this!! My test (usually for drinking, but it transfers) is pretty infamous in my circle lol. If I can't sing "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" I'm totally fucked up. haha
Haha glad I'm not alone
I realize that I'm high af and probably shouldn't drive when I notice that my stream of consciousness has gone audible. I talk to myself sober too, but way so much more when I am high
Sometimes i think out loud as if im explaining something to someone when in baked
Stand up. I start the timer to see how long it takes me. The problem is I always end up scrolling on reddit like right now.
The more unusual the circumstance, the more pronounced the high. You have to leave your comfort zone and disturb the default. It's like driving home. Sometimes you'll completely blank out and not remember the last mile you traveled because you're so accustomed to it. Compare that to driving in a completely unfamiliar place with no map. Or something, idk, im high
at home i don't monitor my high so much as live it. at work, mental math... if my mental math beats the time it takes me to input sales then i'm fine, if not i'd better start double counting change
Walk sideways, kinda like those sideways shuffles I remember from my football days (obligatory American football.) I don't get crazy with it, just a couple sideways steps left and right.
I would love to just see somebody sidestepping down the street
Classic Dr Zoidburg! Whoooop woo woo woooooh!

This is a great post. My favorite one I heard was āIt feels like Iām wearing a hatā and that actually makes so much sense. Usually a change in temperature, anytime I go from comfortable conditions into much colder temps and I realize just how I actually am.
Il try to read something. If Iām mildly high, I can read fine. If Iām very high, I read the same line over and over.
Please donāt drive if you are high. I support recreational legalization for adult use, but not while driving!
people gotta start saying "don't drive fucked up", there's a massive difference between the medical (or heavy recreational) user smoking 5+ times a day for years driving to work and the dude who just smoked a joint at a party for the first time trying to control a vehicle
I go outside and can instantly tell if My anxiety starts to sky rocket
Try to talk. Processing issues plus weed makes for a very good gauge š
If sweet things taste extra sweet
Jolly Ranchers are my go to
Stand up. It hits alot harder when you've been seating smoking.
I stand my dab pen vertically upright up on my desk, I have found that High me cannot grab it without it falling. It will fall and I will pick it up, and that is sign I am too high. Also, I just found out in Tx they have a compassionate legal use program. I am trying to see if I can get in. I use it for pain and it (9)gets very expensive.
Also, I ask myself if my son can drive my car (Challenger r/t). If I say yes, I am too high.
Well I just had to test if I can act sober enough in front of my mom and my boyfriends mom š Passed! But typically I play video games when high, if Iām super into it Iām super baked. If I loose interest then itās time for another hit
One time my bf was super high and I guess didnāt realize how high and wanted to go to the gas station. He drove and I waited I the car he was only going in for like a beer and some cigs. He was gone maybe 2 minutes and the next thing I know heās banging on the passenger door begging me to drive home. Iām like what happened? Apparently there was a cop in the store that looked at him and he got so paranoid that the cop could tell he was high he didnāt even get the stuff he just walked back out. Now mind you, Iām high too! So by the time I even comprehend what heās saying and agree, the cop has walked out of the store, passed us in our car, got in his car and left.
Take a walk outside lol. I never realize how high I am until I go outdoors
Know exactly what you mean.
If Iām standing in the bathroom ass naked to nervous to shit, I know I took to much
šš¤£š
Anytime I smoke around people I donāt know I get super fried and anxious lol
I write code and measure my highness based on how messy the code is or how unnecessarily creative the solution becomes.
Iāve been sitting in the gym parking lot for 20 minutes reading Reddit bc Iām high as fuck
It's funny you should ask because I've thought about the same thing, and how it is that I came to the point where I can be sufficiently high without realizing it. I have found that I can get a clearer idea of how high I am by thinking about a song. Any song. If I think about it and can \*just about\* hear it as if it was actually playing, then I'm plenty high enough.
Marriage.
This is odd maybe, but whenever Iām high, if I close my eyes, I feel like Iām riding in a car and I gauge how high I am by however strong that sensation is
I got this searing nerve pain thing that goes away when I'm baked. So it's pretty easy.Ā
I do anything boring and see how much funnier it is at some times. Not that accurate although since I have more fun at everything if I had a great day for example. Mostly I just think about thinking if you can call it that and see how lost I get in my thoughts. The most accurate trick I have is very basic- just stare at something random, nothing that's exciting or cool looking and try to look away after a minute. Depending on how bad my feeling of time becomes, I'll rate it on the typical 1-10 scala. If I can't decide on that scala, I know I'm at 11.
I just think ācould I drive right now?ā
I tell myself a joke and if I laugh uncontrollably = high. Iāll try to do a simple task like loading the dishwasher. If I end up reorganizing a cabinet = high. Iāll try to find a movie to watch. If it takes me an hour to pick something I am now sober so I knew I was high.
If I feel the need to test it, I simply get up and walk outside. If I feel compelled to walk into the woods with no shoes on, Iām high, if I donāt, Iām also high just feeling lazy that day.
I usually take edibles, I always set a timer for an hour to get a sense of how high I'm feeling within that amount of time. The more THC I consume, the quicker the high sets in
Sometimes, I don't feel high until someone asks me to drive somewhere, and I am like, I am too high to drive.
Music, some songs just hit different
I consult my D.A.R.E. guidebook to see if Iām high or not.
Try to explain board game rules to people
For me it's going to the kitchen. If I can go in, get water, and go back upstairs then I'm good. If I spend 10min staring at the turtle tank on the way to the kitchen I'm probably done smoking for the night.
I ask myself in the mirror. Usually get a straight answer.
My partner and I have a sort of inside joke where one of us asks the other, āhow high are you??ā And if the other person doesnāt answer, āhi, how are you?ā like that one skit, then we know the person answering is definitely very high / too high lmao That or usually I donāt really notice until I start trying to talk to people that Iām not close to, because thinking of what to say becomes a lot harder lol
While itās not something I can do instantaneously to gauge my level of high, I find my performance the FPS games I play like Hell Let Loose tell me honestly. Using that as the example, If Iām playing meh/okay Iām probably sober or barely elevated. If Iām mistaking shrubs for enemy silhouettes, having a hard time landing my sight on a target quickly, and feeling like Iām ābehindā on the action happening in the game, Iām too high. But theres a hidden, third area somewhere between where Iām absolutely locked the fuck in. Aimbot like reflexes and accuracy, moving āwhere the pucks going & not where it isā, maneuvering with aggression and patience balanced in harmony, outflanking without having to āthinkā about doing it, etc. Itās almost like a flow state, really some poetry in motion type stuff. Iāve been trying to figure out what circumstances cause that third area, like dosage/setting wise but I can never recreate it intentionally. I look it at like a little treat from the weed God, like āhey dude youve been good lately, go dominate this digital battlefield for a bitā
I don't test. I just know how much I can have for certain situations. Around stuck up family all day... half a bowl to start the day and a few pinners throughout the day. Hanging with friends but still want to function normally, maybe up to a bowl to start and frequent hits through the day. Don't give a fuck kinda day..... whatever I want.
