  • Seems weird that you go from no buzz, to straight sick if the dose is only a few mgs apart, maybe it’s just that you haven’t found a strain that your body reacts well to. With my prescribed ADHD meds, which are amphetamines and dexotroamphetamines (powerful psychoactives, way stronger and dangerous compared to weed), there is a difference of about 10mg where my tolerance is in the perfect zone for no side effects, before full side effects (and that’s with the brand I tolerate).

    I had to go through 5 different ADHD meds to get the perfect one my body didn’t reject and then I went through 3 dosage adjustments of the last med to finally get the perfect prescription that wouldn’t make me sick (ADHD meds make you sick differently, it’s mostly nausea, headaches and gastro issues that can be quite severe). It seems to me like you haven’t found the perfect “prescription” of weed for yourself. Not that you even have to try to if you don’t need weed for medical reasons anyway, but that’s just what it seems like to me.

    Psychoactive drugs tend to be hard to prescribe to people that have low tolerances (such as myself). I was able to find my perfect weed dosage and strain before I was able to find the proper ADHD ones (since I had to go see the doc repeatedly for ADHD drugs over the course of 4 years of testing, whereas weed was recreational already, so all I had to do was order some and test over a few months myself, no doctor visit needed).

    Hopefully you get a good dosage if you’re trying to find it for medical reasons.



  • I’ve only ever felt my head spinning once on weed and it was my first time when I took 30 mg of edibles and had a full blown episode of thinking I time looped 6 times in a row while looking in the mirror (honestly, a really bad experience).

    Note that I now know that my appropriate dosage is 5-10 mg and 10 mg is a solid high while 5 mg is just a pleasant buzz (akin to taking a few glasses of alcohol, but not being drunk). You might be taking too much for your body and inhaling isn’t exactly super accurate dosage. Not everyone has the same tolerance. My mother can tolerate 25 mg; if I were to take that much I’d bad trip like the first time on that 30 mg gummy. I’d take a very low dose if I was you, like 2 mg edibles as a start, that way you know what dose you’re taking.


  • I have ADHD and I take edibles from time to time. Edibles make me concentrate and notice things. Also, I take a dose appropriate for my tolerance (which is rather low, so I take 5-10 mg depending on the time of day). So I’m high, but I’m not so high I’m detached from reality or near a coma.

    Edit: Sativa makes me have a head high and Indica makes me sleepy af, because of the body high. So Sativa edibles are what I take for concentration.






  • It’s relatively new (for consumers I mean) from what I see, but it’s the same technology some dentists use for teeth cleaning. Works pretty well, but like I said, it doesn’t go under the gums (the thing stops vibrating when it contacts the gums, for safety), so you need an actual dentist or dentist kit to do that, which is why dentists probably don’t want to recommend it; they don’t want people to think that this is all you need and get issues. They are right, but if you are smart, it’s a good thing to use to supplement teeth care between visits and saves you money, because you don’t have to go to the dentist as often (granted, you still need to brush your teeth, I don’t want anyone reading this thinking you don’t have to lol).

    Edit: If anyone is going to use this, use a tissue to wipe the tartare on it as you clean each tooth and for the love of hygiene, clean the metal tips with soap after you’re done with your cleaning session!!!


  • It uses ultrasonic waves to melt the tartare off your teeth and is safe to use. It’s not strong enough to melt enamel, only to melt tartare (even hard plaque melts with some patience). Just follow instructions or watch a YT video explaining how to use it. It’s really not hard. People also use these for pets, as pets are notorious for not being able to stand still very long, but they still need dental care. Just check on Amazon, there’s plenty with thousands of reviews. I got mine on Amazon a year ago or so.

    Ok, to everyone here actually struggling with teeth care, buy yourself a 50$ or less ultrasonic tartare remover on Amazon or something and thank me later. That thing removed 4 years of tartare from my teeth and now my teeth are clean. If you want to do below the gums, buy a regular dental kit and watch a bunch of tutorials on YT by professionals. It’s not as hard as they make it out to be, just take your time and go easy on yourself. Go see a dentist when you feel like your cleaning wasn’t enough or if you have an emergency, it’ll save you money (and teeth health) to take better care of them at home in the long run.


  • I was using whatever pens I could get before I found the JP pens. Now when I see one, I have to get it. The writing feels as though it glides like a brush over the paper.

    Besides that, not sure why people say they explode on them, mine are indestructable. I write and draw with a very heavy hand and they stay rock solid. Pretty good pick for heavy handed people.
