Depends on the strain and how much you’re smoking imo. For me, just a little high helps with socializing. But also depends on what kind of people I’m around
weed helped me get over anxiety because I would just blame the anxiety on the weed. Id tell myself nobody can see the anxiety swirrling in my head, its just the pot running away with my thoughts, so I just started ignoring it when I felt it. Now weed rarely gets me anxietal. Big truth in “depends on who Im around” though. Thats true for me too, time and a place, like anything.
And for me (just to illustrate individual difference, do what works for you my friend), over time the dosage window that’s pro-social gets narrower and narrower, to the eventual point that a one-hitter induces muteness that’s only overcome if alcohol’s added to the equation. Switching up strains helps for a bit, but eventually ends up the same way.
Actually find I’m way better at socialization when no weed is involved at all these days. Do wonder how much of my social issues around weed are chemical v. behavioural - seems to make sense that if most of your smoking time is spent zoning out to the TV, or even just quietly locked in doing chores, that behaviour might carry over in other settings. But idk.
I totally agree with this assessment, but being high and being tipsy/drunk are also very different beasts.
I wouldn’t smoke if I’m trying to gain a bit more social courage lmao

My partners like this. One hit wonder I call him.
