Been trying out edibles after many years without smoking or consuming weed in any way

First few times I didn’t feel much of anything but yesterday I experienced the most intense full body high ever… Like, only existing felt intensely pleasurable. It’s been almost 24 hours and I still feel a strong “afterglow” physical effect like a tingling sensation dripping down my spine.

Is this what weed’s supposed to be like? it never ever felt this good to me smoking. Yesterday I also experienced zero negative effects, while a joint would regularly get me paranoid, hence my question.

Follow up question for the ladies

Tap for spoiler

Does weed hits you different during different times in your menstrual cycle? Is the effect stronger when you are ovulating for example?

    When I’ve tried smoking and vaping, I usually don’t feel anything, but a handful of times it was very minimal…

    Edibles on the other hand get me there. The ones I buy give a good body high, and are energizing for me, but I stick to lower doses. It only lasts about 6 hours.

    I’ve heard that with an edible, you can chew it up and hold it under your tongue for a while, the mucus membrane will absorb it for a faster high since that avoids the process of being digested (at least until you swallow it). You could try something like that, as that would initially avoid your stomach acid.
