    I tried cannabis for the first time this year and I’m 50. That’s it. It had zero effect on me and I just had some cereal.

      When smoking it often doesn’t work the first time, try again if you got nothing to do that day 😂

          I had some cheerios and went to bed.

          Well… sry to disappoint if you were expecting to see dragons or smth, but that pretty much is the effect.

              No wörries. A lot of people do.

              I remember expecting something much more, as the depictions from shows and movies were always pretty overt. (This was in early 00’s.)

              Ended up being more akin to like a similarly strong but opposite effect of caffeine. Caffeine makes me less hungry and more active. Weed does the opposite, more or less.

            I guess I just have to try a higher dose. I’m on an opioid antagonist medication though for anxiety which I think is blocking the effects.

              I’d suggest slowly increasing the amount you take. Though if you’re taking it frequently you will have to account for a grown tolerance as well.

              Edit: and if you stop for weeks at a time don’t resume at the dose you were taking while consuming regularly.
