Amsterdam cannabis- HPPD

[Pars101]

Hey I have had HPPD since 1st January 2012. I am going to Amsterdam with my mates in August, will I be able to smoke then? or will it worsen my HPPD?

Is all the weed strong there? or can I get mellow weed so not risk worsening my condition.

All the weed is quite strong, yes. But you can find "weak" weed if you ask in certain coffeeshops. By that I mean outdoor weak strains. Anyway, if you ask for mellow indicas, you'll find them.

Sorry I don't know what HPPD is, I'll look on wiki

By "had", you mean you still *have* HPPD, right? If you're still feeling disillusioned/dreamy and getting visuals, I woudln't advise smoking. However, if you're no longer experiencing symptoms of HPPD you might be fine. It's your body and no one on bluelight will be able to answer this question for you.

It is really easy to overdo it in Amsterdam.
If you do decide to smoke, please be very careful!
Even one hit of some of the weed there can be too much, especially for someone who isn't used to smoking.
I would recommend using a vaporizer, and taking one hit at a time, waiting minimum 15 minutes to see how high you get and if the effects are (still) pleasant.

Yes if it's strong you don't have to smoke your usual amount. People often seem to 'forget' that you can simply smoke less, and at a slower rate just like you would with whiskey or vodka. I personally use the one puff per 15 minute trick to titrate my dose to the point at which I feel comfortable and it works brilliantly.

I agree with this. I actually didn't mind HPPD or the visuals I'd see after taking high, low, and moderate doses of LSD and how smoking Cannabis would give me a psychedelic experience if I smoked an excellent Sativa, ate it, or vaporized it.

Pars if this is your first time smoking in a long time you're not going to have any tolerance at all. Just take a single hit or two off of a joint or small pipe/vaporizer and see how it effects you. You can always smoke/vape more later. Don't smoke/vape too much all at once, and I'd avoid consuming any very strong edibles.

Really, this.

HPPD.... I think it's funny how a lotta people go "oh that'd be fun!" Yeah, after a couple months, when your trying to work or sitting in on lectures, it loses it's novelty
