Hello,
I've been smoking consistently for around 3 years. Joints waste the most weed, but are the most therapeutic IMO (although paper is not good for your lungs). Make some edibles if you're trying to conserve weed (you can use .1 in a firecracker that gets you zonked if it is decarboxylated and fully saturated with fat).
If not into edibles, buy a small vape or a pipe and go for it. Start slow, weed can be very mentally addicting. I like vaporgenie - packs huge vape hits but you have to light it. Volcano's are the most cost-efficient vape, or Arizer. Maybe just a bowl would do you well as a casual smoker.
Sincerely,
King Pot Head

3 weeks of smoking weed isn't gonna chill you out bro. You don't really learn anything from weed experiences like you do mushrooms. It's a lifestyle kind of thing. What you're trying to do is cram for an exam in a short amount of time when you have to work at it for awhile for it to really happen.

For those three weeks. It's not a cure it's a supplement.

Perfect. I'm 9 months weed free and it really does roll over into sobriety. At least for me.

Well you do and you don't.
Here's what I mean: 3 weeks is enough to get some habits going. I'm interested in painting for instance, and I find that my head's usually to buzzing with conflicting thoughts, too fast, to get actual work done. I'll start towards something, then impatiently shift directions in the middle of painting a piece, like 20 times. Before I know it, the day is over, I'm stressed and pissed off, and have no painting to show for it. Completely counterproductive.
What I'm hoping the weed will do, is take the edge off enough, to get some hours of focused painting each day. I'll get a few weeks of consistent painting, hopefully. A good rhythm during the day, if that makes sense, slow and even. Mellow. Once I get into such a rhythm (as I did back in art school) I am hoping then I'll be able to sustain it. It's easy to stick to a technique and style once you've figured out the steps and have done 10-20 paintings with it.
Also, it doesn't have to be limited to 3 weeks, while I'm in the Netherlands. I'm sure I can find some OK sources in my country as well, get some emergency stash for when I get edgy. Make it a lifestyle thing as you say, although I'm a bit paranoid about weed possession actually.
Yesterday I got a joint passed around, being a terrible smoker I couldn't inhale for shit, but the two puffs I did get in, totally mellowed me out for a while. That's EXACTLY the feel I need.
Since I'm on a budget, I think I'll start with a small cheapo pipe, see how that works. If I could find any kind of cheapo glass vaporizer, the kind you heat with a lighter, that would be even better. Will see what the smart shops have over there. Or if that doesn't work, then there's always microdosing. That's tried and tested, last good painting I made was on that

Now this is exactly what weed is good for. Good luck man! Hope it ends up working for you.

This seems like a real issue, maybe starting to smoke weed would not be the best idea ? I have been there, and although i love some nice weed then it is really not the cure. And once you get sober again it all may seem much worse. Smoke all you want but if you want to change the underlying source of misery then do something more - such as a very well controlled high dose mushroom trip or meditation . Just my opinion tough , weed is great !
-------------------- Go with the direction of life - great joy !

Did some mush tripping, either I didn't do enough, or it was too long ago, or it comes with other benefits, just not this one. Also did Ayahuasca several times, and I noticed the same thing. It gives ideas, shows visions, doesn't seem to give the calm and even pace of thinking required to actually paint them.
Will try to focus on low dose (micro-dose actually) shrooms, and some weed as well. I've had too many trips that filled my head with awesome visions, and not much came of them, in terms of painting. This time around I'm all about the rendering. Sustained attention. My only concern is acting like a pothead, being equally unproductive, but for other reasons (laying on the couch feeling good about life in general, not getting anything done) 
I hope my sensitive nonsmoker lungs and a few other things will keep me from that, and allow me to get back on track. Will definitely report. By the looks of it, my travel date has moved up, in about a week I shall be on the premises, ready for the "research" project

instead of trying to fix what mental hangups you have buy puffing a cloud of smoke over situation, maybe, try to use that meditation you spoke of in previous post. it doesn't make much sense to me how smoking weed is going to help with whatever it is your having difficulties with. sounds as if you want to smoke weed and have found an excuse to do so. if you want to smoke weed, smoke weed and enjoy it. don't tie anchors onto the experience only to have to pull up later to sail on.
that's what the earlier post of the thread sounded like when reading OP's posts.

I don't particularly like smoking in general, and previous weed smoking sessions were far, far less satisfying than psychedelics, for me. When given the occasion to smoke weed or salvia, I'd probably take salvia every time.
That being said, after the experience, when no longer high, I see a certain vibe that weed smokers have, that I don't. I've seen this with weed smokers of all levels of intelligence, with or without psychedelic use, etc. So I can only suspect it does help with getting this vibe, this mellow rhythm, which is what I plan to test.

And dont think this is bad weed, premium haze strain .. but that DOES NOT CUT IT! 
No i quit that Shit instantly
I know exactly what you mean. This is why I had to quit. Get high all weekend and then feel hazy at work all week, no thank you. But used during trips or on rare occasion...

With no tolerance, weed feels very narcotic. With years of tolerance, weed is fun and interesting. With prolonged tolerance, weed can get boring.
What's the message here? Personal evaluation of use is recommended for optimal experiences.
I need a tolerance break, just so I can remember what if fells to be sober again. Then it's back to dabs n hash.
