Do I need a T break? Help

[murf2010]

Been using cannabis for a while now. Usually at night but the last couple months a lot more during the day. Now I'm noticing the medicine is only getting me to about a 4 and I'm still having major pains and aches. Never done a T break before. How long should I go for before I can effectively medicate again? I do a little concentrates but mainly flower. Little guidance would be great! Thanks guys

Two weeks should give you a great reset but I've gone on just a 3 day t-break and it was noticeable. The key though is that once your t-break is over, it's really easy to go back to where you were before in a matter of days. If you desire to keep your tolerance low, you have to be able to cut back on your daily usage as much as you can. If you can cut back to every other day, so much the better.

Don't think I can cut back to EOD but I can take a couple days. Two weeks!!! I hate not using cannabis! It's literally a miracle for me

Have you tried switching strains or switching vaporizers or switching the way you vaporize, i.e., from dry to water or visa versa?

Haha yes! It's because I literally vaped all day for the last month! I know that's what did it.
Few months back I took a whole month off. As soon as I started wake n baking again my tolerance went way up

Try cutting back gradually. I usually have more than a few strains around. When I shop for cannabis I like to buy a little bit of several strains. Also using a few different vaporizers. Different strains and vaporizers help me with tolerance. Using a water tool and higher temps help me with pain at night I do cut back and do T-breaks.

If I use concentrates all the time that shoots my tolerance up. I save concentrates for a few times at night before bed. We are all vaporizing for different reasons. Sometime folks can't cut back. It's their medicine that helps them with their illness.

I just hear people say a couple days and then some say just medicate less and that will help for a few days. Then some say a month. No clue what to believe. I definitely rotate strains and right now I have an enormous selection of cannabis cup winners. So these are extremely potent. I have 3 gold
Medal strains right now. Provavly vaped for 20-30 mins last night and was just bored by the end and went to bed. Barely got to a 4-5

Id say 48h hours, then catch up on the micro dosing thread. You don't have to cut back to the low use levels of some users in the thread, but I find the general idea to be, have a break then come back and try not to exceed 75% of what you were using before... Then after a while another couple day break and then try and cut it down again.

Everyone is different buddy. You gotta experiment and find out what works for you.

For me, I don't take t-breaks unless I'm forced ;-)

 

[Tommy10]

You don't need to stop all together, just cut back if you want, even saying it for the evening with half the usual amount for 2 days will help. If you're smoking 10 grams a week, next week try for 8. Eventually you might find yourself using 5 grams a week, and feeling higher than if you used 10.
Using less is a long term thing, you can have a 2 week t break, reset real good and be back to square one in a few days if you just rip back in. Tolerance is a funny thing.

I've never used anywhere near that amount haha. I wish tho. Sounds fun haha. No really I use heavy indicas for chronic insomnia and sativas for my add. Maybe I'll cut back a little. Sucks because I love love love l medicating heavily before bed. This is my first day waiting till 9pm in months.

Okay so I'm going to wait till 10-11 every night and see if that helps. Taking a break seems nearly impossible

As fun as 10 grams a week sounds, it plateaus out pretty quick, IMO once you go over a certain threshold it's just wasteful. For me that's about a gram a day, 1 gram a day is fine, but if I were to smoke 2 grams a day I don't think I'd effectively get much higher, not 1 whole grams worth anyways.

Cut back a little and see how you go, cutting back over the course of a few days will give you noticeable difference.

That you will have to decide for yourself. Some can't take a month T-break because of their illness. Maybe all they can do is a 72 hour t break or just cut back. A month will bring your tolerance back down to zero probably but we are all different. Depending on your cannabis use a 72 hour T-break won't get you back down to zero if you use cannabis daily. It will help your tolerance to go way down.

Do a 72 hour T-break then use cannabis just once in the evening. That will help your tolerance for a while. If you use cannabis everyday all day long that shoots your tolerance way up. Everything in moderation.

10 gram a day user here. My t-break means more edibles and tinctures for a few days. I'm at a 4 pretty much all the time, which also helps with chronic pain.

What are the strains your using?are you in a legal state? your not alone i know until i start growing my own i won't feel what i need problem is at least for me all bud is immature the bud just isn't ripe it may be at it's peak THC level but the trics are still not all amber.next time you do your shopping bring a scope or mag glass to check the trics out look for anything with amber trics.( i bet those you find will work far better )

Other than that one can stay pure and try land race strains or as close as possible make sure you do your own research into the strains you are consuming .You may even try some cbd shatter its my next shot something at 40%thc and 40% cbd i should feel something i hope lol

First off, I'm a teacher and you need help with punctuation badly!!

Jokes aside

I live In a medical state and only use the highest quality cannabis cup winners. The issue isn't the meds.

I use a lot of different strains. Right now I have quite a bit of cookies, sour apple, strawberry cough, a high cbd that just won gold, ummmm oh Dutch treat and blue dream.

 

[DrNick420]

I don't take T breaks. I go all oiut concentrates or flowers. When I get sick of one of the two, I siwrch andget ANNIHILATED. then same things happen, iswitch back, get WRECKED. Hasn't failed me in years.

 

[TeeJay1952]

Love, Patriotism and how much weed you should smoke. 3 things that can't be measured. Only looked at, noted and speculated about.

Just sayin' hi from the opposite end of that scale.

You name it I've probably tried it. Arthritis and chronic pain. severe allergic reaction to meds. Mil vet medical user. Canadian version of VA supplies. I've tried to grow but I apparently lack the green part of a thumb...

What are your choice strains

I noticed an uptick in my tolerance so I was going to quit.......didn't, just cut back a lot. Only been a few days though, but feel pretty good and have been getting "higher" than normal, it's like my body is trying to make the few times I can vape count

 

[murf2010]

Yesterday I didn't smoke during the day at all or after work. Just at bed and it was definitely more effective.

T BREAK where can I find facts?

I find that just mixing my strains helps accept change.

A high THC level is not ways the best cannabis.

I have this LEMON LARRY 16% THC I use during the day.
Mendocino Hog's breath 20% THC at 420.
If I want to be in a COMA I use something else. 24% THC or higher.

T-BREAKS might be OK for some?
I just mix strains!
