Like a virgin after 20 years?

I've heard that after long term use of opiates, even after you take a 20 year break, you will still not get that feeling like you got the first few times you got high off them.
Does anyone that has taken a long break from MJ know if the same is true? The longest I had previously stopped toking during an 11 year daily usage was 6 months. But after retoking, my tolerance was back to the same after a few days.
Now after a 20 year break, I copped some dank weed and am preparing for my first high. Will I get that magic back that I had the first few months of my toking career? Will it last for a few months like it did at the beginning? Or after a few days of daily usage, will it be like I never stopped smoking?
I'm going to start off with 3 hits. I plan to keep my tolerance low this time around, hopefully. Anyone that has had a multi decade break like me, please let me know what your experience has been.
 
Try it out and see what it's like for you.

You could try vaporizing it or eating it for something different?

I recently vaporized herb for the first time after a 5 year break and it was a familiar feeling but it also was different since I was not smoking it.
 
I don't know if this holds true for other old weedheads [been tokin since 1969], but my tolerance has done a 180. I would've thought that I'd need MORE to get stoned, but I need way LESS than I did 20-30 yrs ago.
Might be the potency of today's homegrown. I have a couple pals who are 'gourmet growers' & produce some of the strongest weed. All I need is like 2-3 bonghits & I'm blasted for 3-4 hrs easily. Plus these friends 'comp' me from their latest grow, as the price of their stuff is unbelievably high. [no pricing, thanks] Thank goodness they're old pals who keep my ancient ass in smoke. =D

^ this is almost certainly the improving quality of weed

My experience is that a tolerance only builds to a certainl level, thereafter, it plateaus. About 6 months of regular use got me to peak tolerance and about 6 months off to get back to zero.

Everyone's different though, and I'm sure it's different for different products and MOAs.

Man, if i have a 6month break from weed I get fucked up easily for at least a month after. I just started smoking this week after a break since november. Two bowls and Im on a fucking cloud for two hours.
After 20 years I expect youd be like me x50.

I just smoked twenty# minutes ago and its taken me like 15 minutes to write this.!
 
I just started smoking after a 10 year break, I mean not a tke for 10 years.. I have only been taking one or two tokes in the evening to help me sleep, it has been working well, my tolerance is def very low, one big toke wipee me out. This has been holding as I only smo0ke at night, my day is bud free. I must say i am very leased with the highs I'm getting, no bad side effects, and actualy being mildly pyschoactive has led to looking at things from a stoned perspective, which is good. I'm a somewhat uptight asss, and herb has a DEFINATE, positive effect. But to answer your question, yes I think for sure your tolerance will be as if a bud virgin, it is for me. It has been very enjoyable and beneficial. I'm glad to be back..........enjoys your first tokes.........
 
Yeah you're going to get super baked. and i'm guessing after 20 years all the weed will be different and you're just going to be a baby in the world of stoners again.
 
To say I got super baked was an understatement. Thanks to all you dudes, I decided to go with only 2 hits for my first time back. Thank God. I actually wished I had started out with just 1 hit. I smoked this stuff called BLUE DREAM. The first 10 minutes, my heart beat fast and I had never felt such a body high before. This is reported to be a sativa dominant hybrid but I wonder if it is really indica dominant. After that, I just went with it. This is not the pot I smoked 20 years ago. Felt more like LSD.
Started out listening to Dark Side of the Moon. Thought I was going to flip out by the time I got to the track "On the Run" but I was cool by the time "Us and Them" started playing. I was stoned for a solid 4 hours.
The only thing I didn't like was the deep intraspection of my life it gave me. I'm going to make a few changes before I get high again. I had no idea that this was going to be a life changing experience but I didn't realize how fucked up my life was until I got stoned. I also have some OG KUSH and AOTA to sample. I'll probably try the AOTA next and save the OG KUSH for last.

Sounds fun! What did you smoke out of?

If you want a very intense psychedelic high try vaporizing some herb. You don't need a lot of it either.
 
Since I quit the cigs 2+ yrs ago, I decided to buy a vaporizer. Always heard about them, but had never tried 1 in all my years of toking.
I thought, "What the hell?" & went to our local headshop [I love the looks on the youngsters faces when my antique ass strolls in to buy screens, papers, etc.], told the owner I never 'vaped' & thought I'd check it out. The dude even gave me 90 days to check it out & that 1st night I vaped, I was sold.
I didn't think I was inhaling anything, it was so smooth. Before I realized it, I was ripped outta my skull!! I couldn't feel the hits, so I assumed I wasn't gonna get high. Man, was I wrong. I love vaping now. Best invention since the bong & then the grinder. =D
