I've been smoking spice(smoking dragon) for a few weeks now(2 grams a day) and decided to quit for 3 days , during those three days I smoked weed probably around an 8th my question is can spice mess up or destroy your thc receptors. Just seems like I don't get as high and it's adding a lot of stress to my life because weeds my way to cope.

Perhaps find an alternative coping strategy. "Spice" products contain chemicals often with a higher binding affinity for the CB1 and CB2 receptor sites vs THC. Some chemicals I have used in the past made smoking weed almost pointless as the high I once got from cannabis was not as pronounced. Give it all a miss ("Spice" and weed) for a few days and see how you feel smoking some bud. Try to avoid "Spice" products as some people find them highly addictive (myself included). Check the cannabis discussion for more information on synthetic noids.
 
Thank you for the advice Im gonna take a couple day break with weed and I'm quitting spice although I think it is a way more pleasurable high . I just don't want to do any permanent damage , I've probably smoked about 2 ounces of spice in my life and I'm 18, last night I smoked about 7 bong rips and didn't feel as high as I normally would but I think one reason is I compare weed highs to the intensity of a spice high

Probably some cross tolerance going on there. Let the tolerance go down and weed will get you high again.
 
Let me simply start out by saying I do not care what other people do, but I believe a big goal of this site is considered Harm Reduction! I'm not your dad, I have no authority in your life and can't tell you what to do. But the simple answer is YES! My advice would be to stop smoking spice IMMEDIATELY! I smoked about a gram to a gram and a half daily for 18 months on probation. Then one morning I waked and baked with some spice. I experienced the worst sensations in my body ever - feeling like I was having a heart attack and I was literally going to die. Later I found out this was a simple panic attack. However, ever since that awful morning in June I can't even smoke regular marijuana without having a panic attack. My anxiety is now to the point where drugs don't even trigger it anymore. If I don't have any benzos around I will literally freak the fuck out. I would stop before you do serious damage to your body. This isn't something that happens over time like cirrhosis with liquor. It can happen so easily you'll never know when it was too late. Spice is poison, and in my opinion the worst synthetic drug in the world. The one good thing the DEA has ever done was getting rid of it from the shelves. Unfortunately, there are still shops that sell it with even more unknown possibly harmful chemicals. Did you not read about the story of the 14 year old girl in Texas who lost all her brain function and became paralyzed because of that shit? She was smoking just as much as you and I were.

Proceed with caution my friend.
 
I decided after the last few orders I'm done with blends too. They mess up your brain. It's not good when AAA+ nugz don't get you high, but just a slight head change. I recently went back to them because it was simply cheaper ATM than the real deal. I thought well I could order a lot more blend then real herb, so I'll go this route. BIG WASTE of cash. I should have just went cold turkey and waited until I could cop some real green.

Noids are bad.
 
I use the "spice" products also along with smoking weed. Smoking the spice stuff everyday completely put me off weed, until I run out of spice. I also know of a lot of others where im from that just prefer spice over weed nowadays.
 
Lay off both for a few months it was the only thing that got me able to smoke weed again after smoking that for a year then it got banned..it litterally made me not able to feel a blunt if I just smoked it to myself..I think what was in mine was JWH-18 and 72 or whatever at first..then those got banned and I think it was like Am 211 or sumthin..not sure that shit was strong as hell tho! It came in a little packet called Head Trip. I miss it..
