Experiences - 3 Month Continual Usage

[Horiz]

So, SWIM has been smoking on and off for the last 7 years. Mostly soap bar hash because of the price and availability in the UK, but has always jumped at the chance of getting some nice green.

Recently, a reliable source has opened up for SWIM and he is able to buy it at least once a week. So, naturally he indulged himself, saturated even.

Now, SWIM definately has some pretty strong anxiety issues, particularly social ones, so you can imagine the paranoia!

So, to start with, he was using about an 1/8th per week, smoked all day.
His usual dose was approx. 2-3 bowls full every 3 hours which left him feeling pretty relaxed and happy, even in a social environment. This trend continued for a month.

During this month he was trying to gauge exactly what caused some days to be very anxiety-ridden, even in good company of close friends, family and sometimes even girlfriend, while some days he could use the same dose and be the life of the party!

So, the weed ran out and he called a friend to see if he was interested in chipping in for some weed, so we could get a bigger weight. He told me a friend of a friend had just gotten a fairly significant weight in and he was looking to shift it.

By the end of the night we had walked about 5 miles and picked up a half ounce. Feeling very happy (and incidently smelling very strongly of herb) with the amount in his pocket, they returned to his home and immediately loaded up a fat bowl each. This is where things got interesting!

After smoking SWIM's bowl and passing the bong, it hit him incredibly fast, he was fucking out of his mind! He plugged on a movie, had a huge laughing fit and proceeded to exclaim just how stoned he was to his friend, who was now utterly wrecked as well.

After about 5 minutes of complete awe at the power of this herb, paranoia creeped in very suddenly. SWIM was completely aware of my heart rate, of every muscle in his face giving away his innermost secrets and his shallow breathing.

He seen something scuttle across the floor and under the TV set. Oh shit!

SWIM isn't particularly worried about spiders, as much as anyone can be after being subjected to Arachnaphobia as a child, right? But this spider was freaking him (and his friend) to the point where the actually had to leave the room and go chill upstairs.

Over the coming months he only got that high a few times, some for deep introspection and some just to help with the daily struggle of insomnia. He kept his dosage pretty low but still had frequent waves of anxiety, almost panic attack levels.

All in all he was completely blown away by the potency and the introspection that this strain (unknown, dealers here don't have a clue) had given him. He's had plenty of revelations, some of which he even managed to remember!

As for physical effects, elevated heart rate, especially at higher doses probably due to panic/anxiety, the ever loved sedation, but also a fairly substantial rise in libido. His girlfriend, who usually has a pretty low sex drive had a very definate rise in sex drive, which he certainly didn't complain about!



Conclusion

SWIM definately couldn't regret couch potatoing for an entire 3 months, but it's something he'll be avoiding now that he has decided to lead a more active life, but he will still be using the herb at least once a week.

Weed is one of his more favoured friends and he hopes he will be able to enjoy it even better when he has dealt with his anxiety issues.

Thanks for reading, it's probably not the most interesting trip report out there but he think he just wanted to get it out there, if nothing else then SWIM finds it really helpful and even inspiring to read over his past experiences.

Cheers
