Stages and Levels of Being High Explained
Cannabis — in its various forms — has been enjoyed by people for centuries. Whether it's used for relaxation, creativity, or social bonding, the experience of being high is unique and often cherished. If you're curious about the different stages and levels of being high, you're in the right place.
Influencing Factors Affecting Your High?
If you're a cannabis beginner, or if you're just curious about the different stages then get ready for some high vibes as we delve into the factors affecting your high!
Dosage: Start low, go slow — that's the mantra for beginners. However, even for seasoned stoners, less can often be more.
Cannabinoid Profile: Different strains offer a unique mix of cannabinoids including Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), that give you various flavors and feels.
Delivery: Smoking and vaping offer a fast pass to the fun park, while edibles take their time to queue up but ensure an all-day adventure.
Tolerance: If you're a regular, you might need a bit more to get on the same wavelength. On the other hand, newcomers can reach their high a lot sooner.
Age, Gender, and Physiology: Younger folks may be more in tune with the vibes, since age and gender in relation to the effects of THC can influence how the universe of cannabis interacts with you.
Remember, every high is a unique vibe. Explore, enjoy, and — most importantly — have a blast on your journey through the levels and stages of being high!
5 Stages and Levels of Being High
Understanding the stages of being high can help you enjoy cannabis like a pro and truly appreciate the art and science behind that magical herb we all love.
The Start
The start of your high is like the first note of your favorite song. A gentle euphoria envelops you, your senses tingle, and a smile creeps up on your face. It's the anticipation of a fantastic time, but we're just getting started!
Happiness
You've hit the sweet spot — a stage of happiness. Your thoughts are deeper, your creativity soars, and suddenly, everything seems just slightly more interesting. This stage is when you might want to create art, dance to your favorite beats, or have those soulful conversations with friends that you'll remember forever.
Peak Sesh
At the peak of your high the initial “buzz” has wained down to a steady locked in high, where your sensory perception is at its peak and the effects of the particular type of cannabis is strongest. Whether couch-locked from an Indica or mentally energized from sativa, at this point you’re all-in.
Stay Chill
Sometimes, if you’re a beginner or if you chose a strain or product that doesn’t work for you it can lead to feelings of anxiety or paranoia. Finding a calm place to take deep breathes and hydrate often helps it pass. It’s always best to start small and take it eassy so you don’t overdo it.
The Come Down
As the high winds down many users find this part of the trip a gentle conclusion, leaving them feeling content and relaxed. Others might find the need to reignite these stages and levels of being high. Either way, this is typically a peaceful and reflective time where you can safely evaluate how your experience went and how that cannabis product worked for you.
How Long Can It Last and Stay in Your System?
It varies from person to person and depends on your dose, tolerance, and chosen strain. Typically, the high from smoking and vaping can last anywhere from two to three hours, while edibles can last 24 hours with some lingering effects. Cannabis can stay in your system for days to weeks, but that doesn't mean you're high for all that time.
