Good evening @jlo70, I am glad you found value in the information about my experiences. Now comes that hard part. Would you please describe a buzz for me? I think I used to get more of what I would call a buzz from Jack Daniels Special Select which I gave up recently. I have had two “buzzy” incidents in the 7 or 8 years of using medical cannabis. Both had to do with learning not to drink alcohol with cannabis. It took about 3 hours of hand holding to come back to normal. Once in a while when I get a new tincture that I haven’t tried before, I start with only half of my regular dose to make sure there will be no buzz.

The only other time that I feel a “buzz” would be when I am exhausted and my body tells me to take a nap. I sort of drift off. You can control your dosages based upon your reactions and activity levels.

May you be free, safe and protected from inner and outer harm.
Chris

Hi Chris. Medical Marijuana can be tricky to use. I have found it to be helpful as a tincture. Can’t smoke it and the tincture is easier to control. Lately I use at bedtime, but could be used throughout the day. No buzz because I use three drops under the tongue and this is a hybrid strain (equal ratio of cbd to thc). Have never been a pot smoker, more of a wine person, so the tincture was more tolerable and dose accurate for me. Begin low and adjust to your needs.
Best, Catharine
