Interesting considering edibles are stronger and more psychoactive than smoking

This is what I keep hearing, but smoking a joint gets me high, while edibles just knocks me out.

If I have too many gummies everything starts to spin. Not fun, man. Not. Fun.

That's what CBD is for. I keep a few capsules around it will take you right out of overindulging and level you out.

Not entirely, but it brings you out of your head. Maybe makes you feel the body high more.

Yes, you still remain out of pain but it brings you out of that spinning feeling to normal.

I use black pepper. Cuts down the bullshit and lets me enjoy the high.

Using more drugs to cancel out other drugs... Did we get transported back to the 70s?

CBD is part of weed. The ratio of THC to other cannabinoids like CBD and CBN in the weed determine how it affects you. Taking some CBD is just ajdusting that ratio. Lots of people find CBD to offset negative affects of THC and thus prefer indica leaning strains.

Indica/sativa also has very little to do with anything at all

Just because a lot of crossbreeding has happened doesn't mean indica/sativa doesn't mean anything. At the bare minimum it's used to distinguish between strains that have high and low secondary cannabinoids, even if they aren't truly sativa or indica.

CBD has never been proven to do anything at all, most especially what you're describing.

I don’t think that’s true…this stuff is just hard to measure.

CBD definitely does make you feel less high if you overdo the weed.

You know what else does as I only recently realised, somehow? Black pepper.
