    I’m having quite the bad time these days on even light doses of cannabis. I don’t know how people manage it.

      You gotta work up that tolerance, I’m kinda like you if I’m not on my daily dosage but once the tolerance starts kicking in it’s smooth sailing.

        You do know that “building tolerance” means the effects get weaker, right? It means you need to smoke more for the same effects, as your body develops a resistance to the cannabinoids. That’s like the opposite of what you want.

        Idk what word you’re looking for here, but it definitely isn’t “tolerance”.

          If one starts with very low or no tolerance then even minimal amounts can be a bit much. A higher tolerance can make that more comfortable. At these low doses, a small variation can impact the experience overall and some people will like it with a slightly higher dose which they need to build a tolerance to smooth out the harsher effects of.

          Not sure if that’s what they meant but in this way the word can be correctly used.
