First Things First: Being “Too High” Is a Real Thing

Let’s kill the myth real quick.

Being too high doesn’t mean:

  • You’re weak

  • You can’t hang

  • You shouldn’t smoke

It just means your body got more THC than it was ready for.

THC is powerful. And when it hits harder or faster than expected, your brain’s like:

“Yo… what’s happening right now?”

That’s when anxiety, paranoia, and overthinking sneak into the sesh.

The goal isn’t to smoke less forever.
The goal is to smoke smarter.

Reason #1: Your Tolerance Changed (Even If You Didn’t Notice)

Tolerance is sneaky.

One week you’re smoking every night, feeling good.
Then life happens — you slow down, take a break, or switch strains.

Next thing you know, you roll up the same amount you used to smoke…

Why this happens:

  • Your body resets faster than you think

  • THC receptors chill out when you stop

  • When you come back, weed hits harder

Drodie Tip:
After any break (even 3–5 days), start with less than you think you need. You can always smoke more — you can’t unsmoke a joint.

Reason #2: You Ignored Terpenes (And They Matter More Than You Think)

Most people shop weed by:

  • THC percentage

  • Indica vs sativa

  • What looks fire

But terpenes are the real vibe controllers.

Terpenes decide:

  • Chill vs anxious

  • Sleepy vs creative

  • Focused vs fried

Some terpenes can turn your high into anxiety real quick if you’re not ready.

Common terp effects:

  • Limonene → uplifting but can feel edgy

  • Pinene → alert, can trigger overthinking

  • Myrcene → relaxed, body-heavy, couch vibes

  • Linalool → calming, anxiety-friendly

Drodie Tip:
If you’ve ever felt “too high,” lean toward myrcene and linalool-heavy strains and chill on the super lemony stuff.

Reason #3: You Smoked Too Fast (The Rookie Mistake)

This one gets everybody at least once.

You’re vibing.
Music on.
Friday energy.
Next thing you know, you smoked half a joint in 5 minutes.

THC doesn’t always hit immediately — especially with flower.

So what happens?

You think:

“I’m good… let me take another hit.”

Then 10 minutes later… 🚀

Why pacing matters:

  • THC stacks

  • Your brain needs time to process

  • Fast smoking = delayed overload

Drodie Rule:
Take 2–3 hits, wait 10 minutes, then decide.

That pause can save your entire night.

Reason #4: You Forgot Water, Food, and Basic Human Stuff

This one sounds simple — but it’s major.

Smoking dehydrated or on an empty stomach can make your high feel:

  • Stronger

  • Dizzy

  • Anxious

  • Overwhelming

Weed amplifies what’s already going on:

  • Hungry? → nausea

  • Dehydrated? → lightheaded

  • Tired? → mental fog

Drodie Tip:
Before you smoke:

  • Drink water

  • Eat something light

  • Set yourself up like you care about your future self

Your fade will thank you.

Reason #5: Your Environment Was Off

Where you smoke matters.

If you’re already stressed, around people you don’t fully trust, or in a loud chaotic space — weed will magnify that.

Weed doesn’t create feelings…

It turns the volume up.

That’s why:

  • Home seshes feel safer

  • Chill playlists hit better

  • Comfort = control

Drodie Tip:
If you’re prone to feeling too high, curate your sesh:

  • Familiar space

  • Chill music

  • Low pressure vibes

Set the mood before you spark.

How to Control Your Fade Like a Pro

Now let’s flip the script.

Here’s how to stay lifted without crossing into “why did I do this?” territory.

1. Start Small, Build Slow

You don’t need to prove anything.
Two hits > panic attack.

2. Choose the Right Tools

Joints, bowls, bongs, vapes — they all hit different.
If you’re sensitive:

  • Smaller bowls

  • Half-gram rolls

  • Controlled airflow

3. Respect the Pause

Let the weed speak before you interrupt it.

4. Stay Hydrated

Water is your co-pilot.

5. Remember: You’re in Control

You can stop.
You can chill.
You can ride the wave.

If You Ever Get “Too High,” Do This

Let’s say it already happened.

Here’s the emergency Drodie checklist:

Drink water
Sit or lay down
Breathe slow and deep
Remind yourself: This will pass
Put on calm music or a familiar show

No one has ever stayed too high forever.
Your body knows what to do.

Final Thoughts: The Goal Is the Perfect Fade

Weed isn’t about seeing how far you can push it.

It’s about:

  • Feeling good

  • Staying present

  • Enjoying the moment

The best stoners aren’t the ones who smoke the most —
They’re the ones who know themselves.

So this Faded Friday, don’t just get high…
