I feel like edibles don’t do anything to me. But maybe I just need to make my own, cause whenever I buy gummies i keep eating them and I just get a very very mild buzz

Eat something fatty with them like a spoon of peanut butter.

They could also be like me, some people lack the enzyme that breaks down THC when consumed. I've tried literally everything from making my own with a few oz's, to tinctures, gummies, pills, any an all of it. Had friends who thought I was joking so they would happily hand me stuff to try and I would just gladly enjoy the taste :(...

Neat party truck though to eat a dozen cookies while everyone else has 1 and are stuck on the couch while I look like the crazy weed addict completely unfazed.

I had a friend like this but the cool trick went away when they started taking omega 3 supplements, hit them hard after

Never heard this. Would be happy to try it, but I've definitely tried all the other things lol. Way it's cooked, with a fatty food, even eating a bunch of lemons or getting citric acid. Nothing has allowed me to get s high from edibles :(

If you do try, update us after a while

I felt like this a few years ago and taking a T break then eating a gummy in the morning with nothing in my stomach proved the way for me.

I usually don't get high like when you smoke but it bridges a gap to when you can smoke. I also only take 20mg to get by and about 60 to watch a movie or something. Try empty stomach after small t break.

I'v heard some people say the first couple times you eat them they don't do anything, or if you have any kind of stomach disorders (like GERD) that this can reduce effectiveness

all anecdotal though
