Things to know about Tolerance Breaks!

Yes, your dreams are more vivid and you are remembering them better. Its not your imagination. Thc can inhibit rem sleep and interfere with dreaming. If you're struggling with the dreams you can try drinking green tea, which contains the amino acid L-theanine. L-theanine has been shown to reduce stress levels in the brain and body, reducing the rate of nightmares.

Another way to help with sleep is finding cbn products. Its a cannabinoid similar to cbd, but well known for having some serious sedative properties. If you're struggling to get to sleep cbn could help sort you out.

And its important to remember that if you have an issue you see a psychiatrist for, ask your doctor for help. There are prescription medications that can reduce or eliminate nightmares. But also remember to be cautious about disclosing your cannabis use - unfortunately there can still be consequences for revealing that information to the wrong doctor.

Cbd is a thing and it can help a lot. Not only does it reduce anxiety, which hits a lot of us in the first week or two of a break, its also a pretty powerful anti-inflammatory. So if you're using cannabis for pain management adding topical and edible cbd to your routine, on and off break, could help a great deal

Everyone t-breaks their own way. A tolerance break doesn't have to mean complete abstinence. Reducing your consumption can reduce your tolerance, too. So don't feel intimidated or like its all or nothing. Tell yourself you won't get high until after noon for three days. Then you won't get high until after 2pm. See how far you're comfortable going, and stop there for a while. There are a lot of ways to do it, so if you need suggestions please ask!

Keeping taking time for yourself. You know how you'd make the time for yourself to get high? Keeping making the time for yourself to do something. Make an especially good drink and sit and really enjoy it in your favorite chair while listening to your favorite song. Give yourself a face mask. Meditate for 10 minutes. Spend ten minutes a couple times a day just on you. Whatever it is that will make your day a little better. Its important to take care of yourself in ways that don't involve cannabis

Don't get down on yourself if you make a mistake and get high. It happens, and its not the end of the world. Its not even the end of your break if you don't want it to be. Enjoy your high while you have it. And in the morning figure out what you need to do to keep from making that mistake again. Do you need to hide all the paraphernalia in a cupboard, or ask your roommate or partner to stop smoking around you for a while? Maybe you need a different or better coping mechanism? Dude, google that shit. There is a world of information about healthy coping mechanisms at your fingertips. Empower yourself and go find it. Or ask me and I'll try to help

The most important thing to know about a tolerance break is that you're going to get through it. It might not feel like it sometimes, but you will. Then you'll be back here all, oh shit I just got high for the first time since my tbreak and the number 5 is orange and smells like...waffles! And we'll all chuckle with you and be kinda jealous :)

T’is the season for hot baths 🛁, good bubbly 🥂 , and great weed 👌💨

What have you got going on this month?

I just finished the LOTR trilogy, therefore learned about the ents. Is this subreddit name based off the ents in the movies.

I'm making my Christmas list, and I'm looking for entwives- friendly treats, tools, and ideas! What's on your list that pertains to or is adjacent to our lifestyle in this group?

Picked up this snowman advent calendar from the thrift shop a couple months ago with this idea in mind! With the help of my cricut, I made the little banner and his pipe for his “tree.” Filled mostly with small dog walker sized joints, but a few special 1g prerolls, couple packs of gummy samples, and some 3.5 g bags. I got the idea from green mama on YouTube I love her 💚 happy holidays ents! 🎄

My state's (Louisiana) medical program is beyond terrible. Everything is very, very expensive due to our duopoly fuckery. My doctor wants me to take an edible dose every morning with my normal meds. Because of my history of cigarette use we are trying to avoid regular inhalation. However, an edible dose every morning quickly becomes prohibitedly expensive. I don't know much of anything about concentrates or tinctures. Is there some other way to achieve the long lasting effects? My tolerance isn't super high, but it isn't very low either.

We will be taking names for another day, so if you've missed the last posts or been undecided you've got one last chance to sign up to apply

More details and the sign up post are available by following this link. We're looking forward to meeting you!

I’ve only ever used vapes and gummies up until this point. Any tips or advice for smoking from a small pipe? (It has no carb btw)

Good Morning ☀️ Evening 🌙 and everywhere in between!! 👋🏻

First things first…please take your meds 💊 🍃💨and drink plenty of water 💦 to get your hydration started off correctly!!

As all of you know Sunday around my place is to toke as much weed as I possibly can and to tend to myself and my home in the best way I can depending on what kind of week I had 😉

This week I will be working on decorating for winter and tending to my person by partaking in the most relaxing strain I have available today which is a mix of “Luna” cbd and “trop cherry”thc that will help me get some stuff done but will also help keep the Sunday scaries at bay.

I will also be doing my EVERYTHING shower where (while I shower everyday) I, on Sunday do a special shower where I do all the grooming I need to do in the shower and take care of my skin and I love to also do under eye masks which is what I will be doing after my shower today! And while I wait for them to be on my face long enough I will start reading a new book I have called “Into the Woods” by Tana French. I would like to get a couple chapters in today!

So tell me..what are you toking and tending to today? How are you taking time out to focus on you? Tell me in the comments, share with me what your winter routine looks like. How are you tending to your mind, body, and soul? Let’s chat! See you in the comments! 💜🍃💨

I've been going through a LOT of stuff and decided I should feel the feels in order to get through it, and weed just kinda makes the bad feels go away, then the high comes down and I feel 10 times worse lol.... I feel a bit better and I finally managed to get out of my house and do things, and I've been craving a joint so bad 😭 Do you think I should or not? Like, has anyone taken a break because of a breakup for example to get over it? What was your experience? ❤️

This is our weekly post to discuss the current political situation in the world

All politics are fair game here, but we ask everyone to remember some of these topics can be sensitive. Please approach conversations with civility and kindness, even in the face of opposing views

Whats on your mind about the state of the world these days? Are you worried? Are you hopeful? Talk to us!

Hi ladies!! I’m going to be smoking for the first time in a year very soon, I was wondering what I should start with since it’s been SOO long? I used to use primarily carts, but I’m not sure if that’s the way to go this time yk. Any advice is appreciated 🥹🫶 have a wonderful holiday season!

Now what? Lol! I bought an Arizer Solo II a few months ago (terrible timing, I'm aware) and it came with a water pipe adapter, so I thought I would take advantage of some Black Friday and Small Business Saturday sales to get my first glass piece. But how do I use it?? I don't really have any stoner friends so I've never used a bong before, just been told that using them with vapes is like a dream.

Bones, magic bean water, relaxing plant, and research.

It doesn’t happen every time I mix the two, but sometimes I feel soooo buzzy and turbocharged afterwards! Today is one of those days. I rolled out of bed this morning without bothering to get dressed and enjoyed a nice leisurely breakfast while sipping my coffee and waiting for my edible to kick in. Man, did they kick in together today! I just ran 3 laps around my apartment in my underwear and tried to do an handstand (fell on my ass 🤣). Not sure what I’m doing after I type this, but I think it’s gonna be a good day!

Maybe it was the extra scoop of sugar I added today…

It will be another great day today. We are celebrating Thanksgiving today as everyone could be here. It is also my wedding anniversary today. It would be 57 years. Sadly, he passed away in January 2001. He loved smoking cannabis and we sure had some good times smoking it together or with friends. We still have some of the special brownies that I made left from real Thanksgiving to enjoy; we never knew about edibles when he was alive. I'm grateful to have my family with me today to help me celebrate.

Good morning, Elevated Queens! 🖤☮️

My husband and I just moved into a house from an apartment complex that was completely non-smoking, even outside. I already have a bong/DHV setup because it allows me to smoke flower inside without too much lingering smell. But! Our new home has a wonderful patio space and a big yard.

I’ve been taking my DHV and heat wand for outside seshes, but my bong stays inside because it’s glass and I’m worried about it getting dropped or knocked over on our patio and shattering. Not only would this generally be a huge bummer, but I’d also be worried about missing any of the glass pieces and hurting my dog (tax included in comments) if she were to step on it.

I’d love to be able to use a bong outside, so I’m considering one of the silicone ones or just any option that would be fine if it got dropped outside.

What are you lovely ladies using for outside adventures?

It’s getting super cold outside in a lotta places. I know many of us keep our bongs outside or in the garage. Please remember to dump your water out every night or you might wake up to a broken, frozen bong! We see posts every winter from people who lose their bongos. It’s sad. Be nice to your bong. Besides, dump the water anyway(indoors or out). Mold starts to build up quickly & you don’t want that junk in your lungs, right? And now, back to your regularly scheduled posts.

There is music thats fun to listen to when you're high. Then there is the music thats perfect when you're stoned as hell, just on the right side of greening out

One of my favorite songs for those moments has always been Welcome to the Machine by Pink Floyd. There are so many fun things for my ears in that song. You gotta be careful, though. The lyrics can be a bit of a kick in the gut if you listen too closely lol

What do you listen to when you're almost too high? Post a link if you want to/have one!

And don't forget, for the next 48 hours only weed related posts are allowed on r/Entwives! Can’t wait to hear about everyone’s cannabis adventures this weekend!

I need a candle to cover the slight (apparently not so slight) weed scent from my vape - but having a “GETS RID OF WEED SMELL” candle from the smoke-shop-slash-bodega defeats the purpose lol I don’t want people to know I’m covering that up. Just something that counters the funk but doesn’t make my house smell like it has 72 black ices hanging from its metaphorical rear view mirror.
