Last year, more middle-aged adults were binge drinking, using marijuana or consuming hallucinogens than ever before, according to a new report. Cannabis use surged among young adults under 30, alongside historic rates of vaping, as well.

I’m in my forties and last year I got a wild hair and thought that I should try cannabis at least once in my life, and I bought a gummy to try. I spent all night waiting for anything to happen, and just ended up going to bed. I’m missing out on what these people in the article are doing I guess because that was just boring.
It’s very common to not feel anything the first time. I don’t know if there is a scientific reason why, I’d be interested to see a study on it. My guess is dosing issues and maybe preconceptions getting in the way.
You can always try again with a higher dose and/or different delivery method. Edibles especially are difficult to dose because they kick in 2h+ after ingestion and heavily depend on metabolism. Inhalation is essentially immediate.
Yeah, edibles are often really weak for me, even when they work. Try smoking or vaping for a better sense of what it’s like.
Broken arm and they wouldn’t give me any pain meds, I decided to try cannabis. Best painkiller ever. Now I pop a gummy just about every Saturday night, or before a flight. As a whole it is enjoyable but for four or so hours I am pretty much useless. With booze I can still get some stuff done.
I remember my friends and I smoked like $500 in weed in one night to celebrate our high school graduation. It was my first time. The only difference I remember feeling is my throat hurting and getting the munchies.
Yeah I ate some cereal and went to bed. Big whoop.
You might just not be affected by gummies, other edibles may work for you. If you’re in a legal state, tinctures and vape carts are a good way to experience it.
I’m like you in that edibles really don’t affect me (I’ve had close to a gram before I felt anything), but I enjoy microdosing with THC carts.
Maybe I’m not. I’m also on naltrexone (not for substance abuse) and I wonder if that mutes the effect.
