How to be Good at Being Stoned

Lmfao, that was funny as shit!

 

Heh, yeah stating you don't mind illegaly bootlegging an author's book isn't exactly something an author would like to hear..

And MelT, I've critiqued quite a few works actually, I'm not the greatest critic in literary terms, but I will keep a neutral stand point so it'll retain credibility to those pro and anti cannabis. Can't wait to read it.

 

Damn paintballer, you are smart as shit. When I read that it all totally made sense in my mind.
That sentence makes me wanna read something...
Effexor with weed isn't too bad when you wanna be up for awhile so maybe I will finish reading that one book. shit why am i still typing.

 

BTW The price of the book is £16.95 for a print copy and £14.95 for a PDF,not the prices shown on the Amazon site. They're a nightmare, my publisher has been trying to get them to update the information for months.

As a couple of posters have already said, there's a chance that the first thing that ran through your mind when you read the title of this book was, "'I've been smoking for years, I'm already pretty good at being stoned...!" And of course I do appreciate that and don't doubt it for one second - but there are good highs and GOOD highs, with a lot of difference between the two.

Whether you're an experienced user or a complete newbie, the truth is that it's just too easy to accidentally ruin a good high by doing simple things wrong. For instance: how much tea, coffee or soda should you drink before and during a high? What should you eat? What's the best setting to get stoned in? What are the things to avoid doing and not doing? When should you take that second toke? How can you increase the depth of even a great high with simple techniques? How can you explore the mental states that being stoned creates? What kinds of meaningful experiences can you look out for?

Now ask yourself the following and answer honestly:

1) Tolerance is the number one killer of a good high. How do your highs compare now to those you had in your early days of using cannabis?
2) How much more do you have to smoke now to get as high as you could back then?
3) Do you ever have periods of paranoia, anxiety or just odd weird feelings and thoughts sometimes when you're high?

Very few people will be able to answer:

1) 'Just as good'
2) 'The same'
3) 'Never!'

But getting your high back to a semblance of how it used to feel - and using less weed - is far easier than you might imagine. In the book I look at each one of the problems above and show ways of increasing the depth of your highs and reducing your tolerance, without you having to cut back on consumption. I'm a daily toker, and it's important to me too that I can keep getting stoned every day without becoming tolerant unless I go nuts one night and have way too much. I know that if I do the right things my highs are good, long and consistent.

All marketing and book-selling BS aside, I stand by the fact that it does what I claim, and I really do hope that people read it for their own well-being as much as anything else. I haven't had a tolerance break for 15 years, why should you?

Yes, for crumpets on the lawn too! The book can be ordered from anywhere in the world and shipped via airmail, or if you want a PDF, downloaded immediately.

However, there are certain countries (such as say PROChina) where copyright laws offer no protection, so it won't be available to territories like these. Certainly canada, UK, US, etc.

It's early and I need to look up some weed brownie recipes before I head into work, so I'm going to be a lazy ass, skip reading the long thread to search for my answer and go right ahead and ask.....when will the book be available for the general public?
