Why Weed Doesn’t Get You High Anymore?

There comes a time in every weed smoker’s life when they feel like they just can’t get high anymore. If you’ve been consuming cannabis for years, then your body has most likely built up a tolerance to the cannabinoids in THC.

Just like our bodies build up a tolerance to other substances, such as alcohol and sugar, they can also build up a tolerance to cannabis.

It might feel like you’ll never be able to reach that high that you once felt when you began smoking weed but don’t worry, fellow cannabis connoisseurs.

There are a few tricks of the trade that can help you get as high as a kite once again.

Why can’t i get high anymore?

Our bodies contain a naturally occurring endocannabinoid system. This system is made up of cannabinoid receptors that interact with the cannabis we smoke. After some time, our bodies adjust and get used to the THC and other cannabinoids that we put inside of it. The first few times we smoke weed, our bodies have to figure out what these foreign substances are and don’t know how to react, which is why we get so high. Once our bodies have gotten used to cannabis, it knows exactly how to react and will result in a less-than-amazing high.

So, are you saying I can never get high again?

Absolutely not! We are amazing creatures and our bodies can adapt to basically anything we throw at them. If you can’t get high anymore, then there are a few things you can do to reset your body and reach the high you’ve been craving.

How to get high again: Tip #1

The first way to get high again is to detox your body and allow it to fully cleanse itself of any cannabis. We know, this isn’t a very fun idea, but after about 30 days your body will reach internal homeostasis. This means it will function at its normal state and decrease its cannabis tolerance. When you light up again after you’ve detoxed, you’ll be able to reach a much more intense high.

To speed up the detox process, we recommend exercising and drinking a minimum of eight glasses of water a day. This can help flush your body from toxins and the exercise will help release natural endorphins.

How to get high again: Tip #2

If you can’t get high anymore, you may want to switch your method of consumption. For example, if dabs don’t get you high anymore, then maybe it’s time to switch to eating edibles. If smoking cannabis flowers doesn’t get you high anymore, then perhaps you need wax.

We know, it’s easy to gravitate towards your favorite products and strains, but switching up your routine could really help get you high again. This once again comes down to your body. The body can build up a tolerance towards a particular strain and method of consumption. If you really want to lessen your tolerance levels, then try surprising it with a new consumption method.

If you usually smoke a joint, try smoking from a bong instead. You can make a gravity bong from a few household items. If you’ve never heard of a gravity bong, it’s a smoking device made by using two empty plastic water bottles to funnel smoke through water and eventually push that air through deep into the lungs.

If you don’t get high from eating edibles anymore, then maybe you should try smoking wax. Wax products can range in texture from a more runny consistency to a more solid type of product. More runny wax products take on names like ‘budder’ while more solid wax products are called ‘crumble.

Switching up your cannabis products and method of consumption is a great way to trick your body into getting high once again.

How to get high again: Tip #3

If your usual weed strain just isn’t cutting it anymore, it may be time to try something different. Believe it or not, humans can build up a tolerance to particular strains, thus resulting in a less than amazing high. If you smoke the same strain all the time, your brain will eventually adapt to that pattern of chemicals found in the cannabis strain and start to down-regulate accordingly.

So, what do we do in this situation? Try switching up your regular strain for one that will deliver a long-lasting high.
