activity brings back high?

i don't smoke weed much. i just had some good stuff with my friend. i had just gotten back from a long trip and stopped at my friend's before i drove home we watched some TV and ate quite a bit. i thought it was over with and wanted to go home and thought it had worn off. i felt refreshed and happy driving back.

when i got home i started putting my luggage away and took care of the pets. it was a good amount of activity with the lifting and the scooping. shortly after i begin doing this i felt high again, my memory seemed short again, and putting my stuff away, which i thought was going to be a chore, was kind of fun.

was this in my head or is something that is common or possible? i had a quick theory that the active chemical for the highs were stored in my fatty fat and the activity released a little bit providing what seemed like a temporary high?
 
Perhaps.

Also the very obvious fact that you do get used to being high, and settle into it. Doing something that takes your mind away from the factor of being high so you completely forget you're high makes it much more noticeable when you realise that you're not all there as much as you thought.

I try to make weed a side show more than a main attraction for my mind these days, otherwise being high just doesn't have any sparkle for me now. If I'm really craving it I won't smoke it anymore.
 
haha if only fatty fat could do that. we used to have a joke about such things, and quipped that we'd all take up running and be in gloriously wonderful shape

but alas, such things don't happen. since its not a regular thing for you I'd wager your just more sensitive than the average joe stoner, and the side effects of physical activity was just perceived in a less habituated way, making it seem novel.

thc de-habituates your senses and perception (a prof gave me a long enjoyable rant about all that jazz) which is why music sounds better, food tastes better, soft things... colors... etc etc are more interesting
 
Depends on the strain, but generally when I smoke and have something active to do, I notice the high a lot more because I am not passive, as I would be if I was watching TV or playing videogames. That said, when I smoke and then study, I notice the high but can easily focus on the task at hand if necessary.

I reckon this is probably it. In my experience certain activities will make the high much more noticeable, and others dull it. Bike riding does it for me :D
 
idk guys this used to happen to me all the time. I smoke a lot so i have a lot of thc stored in me. I also workout/run/have lots of other physical activity and i get a little bit high after or during these activities. I also have a pretty decent metabolism. I believe me i know when im feeling thc.
 
couldn't you just be feeling natural endorphins released normally through strenuous exertion?

for me pot seems to amplify, to some extent, the effects of other drugs so why not endorphins?

me too. you can develop tolerance to set/setting as much as to the drug itself. so if you're normally stoned on the couch doing nothing, you won't notice your high as much as if you were stoned somewhere else doing something.

it's also been my experience that INTENSE physical activity tends to potentiate a high (esp. re: "runner's high"), but i'm not sure if that's what you're dealing with here.

(p.s. - like the euler's identity avatar)
 
no clue of the science behind it -
this btw is another good reason to have PROPER research done on marijuana.
- but aye,
i find that movement (grooving, exercise, rolling down hills) feels way better when high,
as your senses i find become intensely more acute.


and as someone posted ^, cannabis eccenuates the effects of different chemicals, so why not endorphins?
