I've been vaping type 2 cannabis for several years with a dry herb vaporizer. It's great, I have these small cartridges that I fill with herb and that's good for me for a session. It's a relatively low THC hit but it's perfect for me.
A few months ago I went to a dispensary in a neighboring state and picked up a disposable THC vape pen. It is really cool and convenient, but it can fuck. you. up. With the dry herb you've gotta pull on it very hard, especially the first hit... and that's how I hit the disposable the first time. Ruined my night.
oh you're talking about a whole different drug. yeah, the vape pens are problematic for sure. they are way too strong to be a medicinal dose.
if you're actually taking medication, you want to take exactly as much as needed to achieve the desired effects. building tolerance is one of many potential criteria for developing a substance use disorder.
the dry herb vapes are nice, though. I broke mine a while ago and have been using just a glass piece. been using CBD flower, and noticed i increased my use this past week. ironically, I think my lungs are a bit worse than when i was vaping (nicotine) lol because I'm replacing it with more smoke! oh well, can cut back on CBD too! not going back to the nicotine shackles either way. day 6 feels amazing.
