I think this is very subjective.

The only time I smoked a joint I thought I was gonna die. Never fucking again, lol.

Nothing beats taste and effects of small dose of whiskey with some fruut or vodka with an appetizer. Or a few glasses of wine.

Same here. I've tried edibles multiple times as they're legal here. The experience ranged from mildly bad to horrible. I either felt like a zombie (not relaxed) or became paranoid and anxious. I had to come to the conclusion it just doesn't gel with me.

CBD does seem to help with my joint and muscle pains though.

Same here. I've never had a good experience with weed. Smoking it or edibles. I feel like the former doesn't do anything for me and the latter just sends me into a panic state from which I can't come down for several hours.

Consider that perhaps what you smoked, is the equivalent of a newbie chugging down bottle of whiskey.

I don't recommend smoking/inhaling weed at all. It's bad for your lungs.

True, no experience or an experienced friend around.

>It's bad for your lungs.

15 years of smoking here, unfortunatelly.

But that's mostly in the past now. A silver lining: can't even think about smoking after this experience.
