HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH?

P

Psychosativa

For me, is more than enough with half a joint per week. I used to smoke everyday, but sooner or later I realized that this wonderful substance should be enjoyed with both moderation and ritual respect.

I do think cannabis should be legalized, but everything has a limit, and I'm wondering how much pot is too much.

Come on, there is a medical definition for alcoholism(more than 50 g/day for women and 70 g/day for men). I know MJ is different, but if we really want pot to be legal, we should ask for medical investigations in order to establish healthy and responsible limits for cannabis.

Everything has its limits, even candy. Even water. Let's be honest with ourselves.

this is a tough question... some people can do just about everything high while others can't do a damn thing, let alone put together a complete sentence. I was smoking just about everyday, usually after work or anything important i had to do. Now I'm down to about a few times a week, i always enjoy smoking, i enjoy the high, i enjoy the taste... i pretty much enjoy every aspect of weed. so what do i think is too much? i'd have to say it's up to the individual, just like people know their limit with alcohol each person knows their limit for weed (not to say people don't abuse either because its obvious that people do). From my perspective i think being high ever second of the day is too much, i see noting wrong with someone smoking once a day especially if it's sort of a night capper. like a glass of wine for some, i don't know maybe that's just me. To put a solid answer to your question.. i guess being high for more then 1/4 of the time your awake is too much. What's your thoughts on it?

Peace:canabis:

1 bowl of weed a day at most for me. (usually 1 will last at least 2 days)

water...i OD on frequently...no lie (ill attempt to drink a half gallon of ice water almost every night)...and yeah if i achieve that ill get sick by morning.

I think in order to achieve the most desirable effects, marijuana should be smoked no more than once a week. Of course there is nothing wrong with smoking 5 joints a day, either. Some people just enjoy a more elevated high.

I personally got a better high when smoking just a little bit per week, because tolerance doesn't build up. That does the trick for me. :rasta:

Of course, there are people that can handle very big doses.

lol half a joint a week.

I smoke whenever I can, that is whatever I can afford to smoke.

1-2 joints a day is enough for me. I usually just smoke at night when I'm about to relax and watch a bit of tv or whatever then go to sleep. If I have important things to do like homework I won't smoke as I can't do homework stoned.

I sometimes smoke everyday for a while other times i go for a week or two without smoking at all, and yes you get way more stoned after that.


how much is too much depends on you. Once I'm done school I'll probably smoke way more lol. In the summer when I'm out of school I like to smoke all day. sometimes I worry about dmage to my lungs but that's it.

I've smoked every single day since i was 16, except for a few times when i quit for an extended period like 3-6 months, and i've done fine. i still get good grades in school, don't fuck up at work, etc. but i know for a fact i would be better off smoking a lot less. during the times that i quit i became a lot more active, was more motivated about certain things, and even though i do alright in school now i think it would be a lot easier for me and i'd do a little better if i wasn't smoking so much. my memory and mental clarity get better when i quit smoking. i hate to use the nasty A word with pot but i am kinda like a pot addict. i either smoke tons of pot every day, or i can force myself to quit completely, but i have never been able to limit my smoking to just the weekends or something like that, which is what i think would be ideal. I either quit or smoke a ton, and when i'm smoking i want to be high every second of the day even right after i wake up, which is why it's so hard for me to limit it to only nights or weekends.

I smoke, regularly. One of those all day people, but it only comes out to about an ounce every 3 weeks, or less than a gram and a half a day which might just fit me in the joint a day crowd, depending on the size of your joint :) Too much is all about circumstances. I can do everything i need to do mildly stoned, and i do. I dont think my doctor could, and i certainly hope he doesnt!

Personally I burn a bowl in the evenings after work Monday-Thrusday,about a gram to relax and undwind. On the weekends I like to wake and bake, tokeup around noon...mabey a joint, I like to save the heavy seasons for the evenings. Then again it all depends what I'll be doing with my time. I'm not gonna get baked and tear down an engine or something.

I guess it's pretty much up to personal preference, situation and tolerance!!!

Well, first of all, you're comparing the horrible, deadly drug called alcohol, which kills people every single day to a wonderful plant that is at least 100 times safer, IMO.

There should be no limits on MJ consumption. If somebody wants to smoke 1/2 joint per week, then good for them, if somebody else wants to smoke 1 ounce per week, then more power to them.

:joint: :wave:

I can see where he's coming from, because the person who only smokes once per week is the same person who thinks that there should be limits on MJ smoking. :joint: :wave:

I like to hit the bowl every few hours if I have the green - I can drive, work and socialize while blasted, and have been doing so since the mid 1970's...

Ain't no such thang as too much - not enuff, maybe...
