Royal Highness

3/26/2019
Just got back into smoking after not touching for around 5+ years. I didn't try cannabis until around 23 yrs old. Then it became a regular thing. I usually smoked small amounts out of a one hitter, but quite often, while at a get together or with friends in general, I would smoke a LOT. This is between roughly 2000-2008. Keep in mind I've always struggled with anxiety and depression and been more of an introvert my whole life. But this is the phase where I was a starting to smoke and drink as a late bloomer and it was actually one of the most social times of my life. Nobody I smoked with usually talked about which strains there were and often it just involved buying what was availble, which was "mid-grade" tho occasionally really potent and quality stuff was obtained. And of course the crusty old bag of dirt was once in a while only thing available. Anyway, this is all to paint a picture of the process I've been through and where I'm at now. Weed was getting me even more social after a while and rarely gave me bad side effects. Never knew the strains and on average I'd say I smoked small to moderate amounts with occasional big indulgences. But somewhere along the lines I started getting very bad paranoia and anxiety and even had a hard time sleeping. Couldn't figure it out but I also started to sink into a very dark place in my life and weed became almost unbearable. I slowly but surely cut down and practically quit. But once in a while I'd try a very small amount such as one or two tiny hits and it would wreck me. Felt panicked. Eventually I stopped hoping to get back to a good place with weed and quit 100%. Did you make it this far?! Sorry. Just want to help those with similar afflictions, esp since I used to get people responding to these affects I mentioned with wtf on their face. I just started researching(I know that takes the fun out of it) different strains now that cannabis has come such a long way. It lead me to a handful of strains and finally reviews that said almost the same thing i felt about anxiety and quitting smoking. Royal Highness isn't technically my first strain back into this. ACDC was. But I felt practically ZERO effect from it and wasn't sure it was doing anything although it did not make me feel bad either. So I got Royal Highness and confirmed I'm still a lightweight. First time smoking, I indulged in more than i knew I should on purpose. Wanted to see the heavy end of the affects, esp after not touching weed once In years. It definitely hit me hard but I maintained through it. Had some moments of geeking out and a bit of paranoia but not terrible. It lasted a few hours and tapered off. After that, I mixed with ACDC about a 1:1. Always using a vaporizer. Conclusion: I'm now convinced there are strains out there for me and Royal Highness is a good one but not perfect. I'll buy again for sure but I'm positive other strains will suit me even better without "diluting" with other non-psychoactive strains. Mostly relaxed although a bit more stoned than I'd like. Some bursts of creativity and productive enough to do tasks around the house etc. Munchies and able to sleep. I missed weed. Now I'm back and am not on effexpr or gabapentin. PLEASE talk with your doc before considering stopping prescription meds. Good luck!
