My medical card expired recently and due to circumstances like not having a car it's been a pain for me to get a hold of cannabis (although I just picked up a 20 bag today which I am very excited about). But not knowing for sure when I would be able to get my next bag has caused me to cut down greatly on my smoking, especially when I get near the end of a sack.
This has actually been a really good thing, because I realized I don't need to smoke anywhere near as much cannabis as I was smoking before to get a good effect. I was experiencing such heavy burn out and harsh come downs that for a while I was using opiates to ease them.
Lately I have discovered that because of all my years of heavy cannabis usage plus my heavy mescaline and psilocybin usage, the doors in my mind are already fairly open. So I can take one small hit of cannabis and meditate and get into a deeply psychedelic state. Then I dont get so burnt out afterward and my tolerance lowers so I actually get more stoned off that one hit than I normally would.
I guess this isn't truly "micro" dosing, but it is drastically lower than the amount I or most people normally smoke. I just wanted to post this to let you guys know it is worth experimenting with lowering your dosage. Find the least possible amount you can smoke and get a decent effect.
One more bit of advice, I recommend not making the stone or the high be your main objective when smoking. Now if you are a new user, it's fine and a good thing to go ahead and get as high as you want and enjoy it. But after smoking for so many years like I have been, it's actually really lame to let getting stoned be your primary objective, day after day.
Instead, I recommend just smoking small amounts to enhance your normal activities. For example, I like to work on my spirituality and so I normally spend my evenings in prayer and meditation or reading scripture. I find that smoking a small amount of cannabis really helps me to get into these activities and keeps my mind from wondering. Smoking more might give me a stronger experience but let's face it, I have had enough strong experiences at this point. Of course I can still choose to smoke more from time to time and on those occasions, I will then get a lot stoneder because of low tolerance.
