No.

I drink every night. Generally, it’s two whiskey gingers, but the pours are heavy - probably two shots in each drink. I do this so my mind will slow down and I can fall asleep. It works really well. Hasn’t affected my work or relationships. I don’t get hangovers. The only negatives are I snack too much and I get up around 3 to piss. But I had my blood pressure checked recently and it’s really fucking high.

So now I haven’t had a drink since the end of January. The evenings seem impossibly long and falling asleep is hard again. I don’t know what my end game is here. I love the idea of being powerful enough to never drink again, but I hate the idea of never having a drink while watching a hockey game or sitting on my back patio in the summer.

But this isn’t the alcohol thread. Sorry. I don’t like edibles. I like having two puffs off a j with my wife every couple months if the kids are out and I know we’re going to be rolling in the hay. It seems to enhance the experience significantly.

I don’t think your weekly intake is hurting you. My wife drinks one thc beverage most nights while we watch a tv show, and then she does a crossword puzzle and sleeps through the night. It has zero impact on the rest of her day. As long as you’re not driving or high when you need to be responsible - working, parenting, operating a forklift - I don’t think you should be worried.

No, but really though. It doesn't feel like a lot. I'd say right now I feel generally more carefree than usual with a slight sensation of physical heaviness (pleasant) all over but especially in my head. And I was snacking a lot before and really enjoying that.

It's not an exact equivalent but it feels like more than one beer but definitely less than three.
You're fine, dude. It's way healthier than drinking.

It only occurs to me to take one on a night after work usually. I said five days because I don't think I tend to indulge on the weekend. It's usually when I've given up on doing anything valuable for the rest of the day, or maybe when I'm trying to separate from stress. I'm not really stressed on the weekend or tired from a hard day's work so I still want to watch a movie or cook something or whatever on a weekend evening in a way I really don't on a worknight

2 or 3 times a week. just a hit or two. I take 5 to 10mg gummies before the gym during the week, too. I find edibles a lot more relaxing than smoking, until you get over 20mg or so

I've never tried it. Very little interest in doing so, to be honest.

Thank you for your concern. Four nights a week is probably more accurate than five. And bear in mind this is almost exclusively a night-time at-home activity for me. The few times I've done it on vacation and been out and about in the world it is a different experience. I'm not an experienced user, this is all new to me. Like less than two years ago is the first time I ever tried any weed at all

Up until about a month ago it's been daily edibles for a few years. But like, microdoses. 2-3mgs.

I'll smoke maybe once a year?

Marijuana is a gateway drug though. You’re right to be concerned.

Evening wind down usually. Or mornings on inventory days. I used to love getting in a few hours early, putting on some jazz or stoner metal and counting the restaurant before everyone else showed up.

I have the same routine as Argo, right down to the mg, and now I'm worried for us both. It does seem like a lot.
