Suddenly weed seems almost too strong

Been a daily smoker for about two years now and have a pretty high tolerance when it comes to pot, typically. But yesterday I picked up some bud, it looked decent, but nothing too spectacular, I was really just expecting a moderate high. But shit, this stuff is kicking my ass. I don't know if it's just the weed or what but it suddenly seems so much stronger. One bong rip has me blitzed, two has me ridiculously high, and three is almost just too much.
Anyone else ever experience this? What's happened?

some strains are a lot better than they appear. one time I got some stuff that looked like regular (or even somewhat sub par, loosely trimmed etc.) stuff called "gator", a strain I had never heard of, and I had a pretty decent tolerance but that shit had me RETARDED. I literally took too big of a hit of it out of a bong one time and I had a 6 hour acid flashback that had me almost puking the whole time it was so intense. I'd say stock up on that shit and take smaller rips than you usually would and you'll be fine!

It's called reverse tolerance. The same thing happens to end stage alcoholics. As their liver fails from so many years of abusing alcohol, they actually begin getting hammered off much less.
The exact same thing applies with weed but on a spiritual level. it's not your body that is failing but your ego. Marijuana is a spiritual plant and when used over time, it loosens up the boundaries that define your ego. Once these boundaries are sufficiently loosened, marijuana can suddenly become intensely psychedelic. Often this will manifest as panic attacks or extreme anxiety. However, for a spiritual adept it is a great blessing as you have an easy way to confront fear and what I call the spiritual wall (give credit to Matt Kahn on that one).

I've definitely had a somewhat similar situation, you can skim my threads to see stuff I've made about them. After a certain mushroom trip weed just wasn't the same, filled with a ton of paranoia and anxiety for some reason.
Now I just take a few good hits and I'm high as fuck without and don't get anxiety. In someways I find it better this way, same amount of weed I used to smoke last me a long time now, and I don't need it as much.
I think somehow I was just getting really high compared to usual so I was panicking a little bit, as soon as I dropped it to just a few hits, I still got really high and stopped getting anxiety.

wow that is a very interesting way to look at it, ive never really thought about it from that perspective but you know that makes a lot of sense
i find it a little easier to handle today, but it still gets me baked from just a small bowl, but i guess it's a good thing! i can conserve weed, and on top of that i definitely have been feeling a more pronounced psychedelic effect from bud as of late, so i am eager to experiment more with cannabis as a more 'spiritual' type of plant

yea man i suppose it is a good thing in a way because ill be getting higher for less, but i just found it odd that it has occurred seemingly out of the blue, untriggered.
