I can tell you from firsthand experience. Edible Marijuana > Smoking Marijuana. It's a lot more psychoactive. I don't know about the "becoming psychosis" from it though. It's certainly not for everybody. But you certainly DO have episodes.
It honestly comes down to the strain. Which, again, is another good reason as to why it should be legalized that way consumers can actually determine which high they prefer. Which high they don't prefer. Etc. There's a lot of bunk and booty [BLEEP] being sold on the market that has god knows what in it.
Synthetic [BLEEP] is not good for you. Some dealers may have bud that's been heavily dowsed in chemicals which hurts the strain and contents of what you're actually putting into your body. You could also be oversold a product. "This cartridge of oil contains 83.9% THC", etc. A lot of it's false. Your average medically cleared and graded dispensary is lucky to sell you anything with 20 - 30% THC content.
We'll see what happens though. I understand everyone's concerns. It's certainly not for everybody. But it's no worse than a cigarette, cigar, crack pipe and a few beers. I can find far worse "controlled" substances that are by and large completely legal and numerous studies have shown the adverse effects and long term effects of engaging in them.
I've taken 4 tabs of high grade LSD and not hallucinated. You just feel euphoric and colors are brighter and experiences are better.
Weed will never cause hallucinations. And edibles are not stronger. In fact, going through your metabolism weakens the effects.
Depends on the microgram count per tab of LSD you take though. I took 250 MCG's on my first trip, had 20 milligrams of edible marijuana an hour before and smoked DMT on top of it and lost my [BLEEP] mind at a Disco Biscuits set for 15 minutes straight. That experience had me questioning whether or not I was alive still or if it was a trick of my brain walking me through the process of death on the way to work a week later.
I have had other experiences with LSD where I did feel euphoric and saw geometrical patterns with my eyes closed. Almost like a purple grid of honey comb like patterns at night at the beach once among the night sky. Almost like a dome. Certainly fun. I have had some others not so fun. Live and learn. But it's all different and up to the individual.
As far as edibles? The single greatest high and experience I ever enjoyed came at the cost of medical dispensary grade brownies, gummy's and juice that totaled out to exactly 175 milligrams. I was so [BLEEP] high that day that on the next day I woke up I was still higher than [BLEEP].
It's all about potency and dosage. And not everyone's brain is hardwired the same way while sober or high. Each experience is different. But to each their own.
