I suggest you read about the programs your state offers. My state just legalized it but has had the medical program for the past 5 years. If you are in the Medical Marijuana program, it typically has higher dose strengths. There are many products too. You need to read about your states process. CBD and THC are in Marijuana that have an affects on you. There are many CBD's and these are not psychological. However, the THC affects you psychologically. Can make you relaxed, tired, focused, giggly/laugh, hungry, energized. It depends on how you react to it. Start with low dose THC. Smoking the flower or hash has the quickest reaction. Eating the edibles can take 1 hour before you l notice it. It wears off after a few hours.
