Salutations SimplyTrinity,
Multiple paradoxes appear to emerge just in those few words alone. 1st of all lonely
initiation (to cannabis) sounds counter-intuitive and i sense doing it in total isolation should raise some flag kind of early. 2nd, the selection of an edible instead of inhalation sounds odd again as i'd certainly want any hypothetical problematic situation to last only a few hours anyway, while ideally in company of a "sitter" and most specially for a first time - hoping i'm wording this correctly. One 3rd fundamental contradiction being a desire defeated by fear...
As for cannabis in emergency rooms i ain't surprized by quick anxiety diagnostics as i was denied proper medical assistance myself, except i had a real asthma attack triggered by mold and yet public-funded medecine proved of ZERO use solving a serious health issue. YMMV...
Beware, the instant they hear the "c" word it seems all
fair notions of proportionality plumet, even gradually vanish under socio-toxic vilification continuously added as toping only meant to serve mis-guided 3rd-party political "elites"and their friends, pretending to "save" the children, starting with the Collège des Médecins in my province (also including the Pharmacists Association of Montréal, if i'm not mistaking)... E.G. plenty of
BIGOT Victorian-age legacy materialized under the form of Québec's "
Annexe" of the Pharmacy Act, printed in 1890, just in time to signal the extinction of apothicaries, by pure coïncidence i'm sure! Etc., etc...
Only hours ago i was hearing, guess what, a
doctor on national TV and this time he used his self-expression privilege to
blame smokers relatively to
CoViD-19, although it's this very same professional group which is presently responsible for a systematic denial of "
Harm Reduction" alternatives - even worse for adult Québekers aged between 18 - 21, actually!
...
Lets hope NY is different in terms of external stressing/paradoxal forces fueling the sin industry.
As always i must insist putting focus on the consumption method, convinced it eventually shapes a user's profile. While we also need to remind ourselves that statistics get relentlessly contaminated by as many vilification vectors as feasible, because the blame sort of justifies/masquerade 3rd-party interference, etc.
Now imagine switching to other substances which simply never become available in the natural "bio" grade and then decide what's the least risk again!
In other words even bio comes with potentially problematic effects, typically because of its associated consumption method & ritual i might add. For example i like to criticize the Volcano by pointing out that it causes its owners to build-up anticipation "by design" as the universe recenters over paraphernalia for 2 ~ 3 minutes and then one practically innevitable conclusion is to empty that bag... Moreover there's the idea that deep heat-activation only promotes dosing abuse spontaneously leading to increased tolerance peaks followed/separated by ultimate "T-Break" episodes. Other systems help to tame down similar fascination aspects and even provide access to concepts of self-awareness and "Micro-Dosing".
Plus, finally, there's the simple matter of individual differences: maybe it's
not for you, or at least not until the fears have vanished. Meanwhile please consider avoiding to play with solvants and needles!
Good day, have fun!!
