Wow, old post. I smiled a lot while reading this and mulled the question over a few times.
I have definitely changed my mind about this, but not very much. I love weed!
I have cut back a lot, but i smoke medicinally every day. I still smoke when I trip but I have changed my methods drastically. I have noticed paranoia if I smoke right before the peak of anything, albeit dmt doesnt really matter, I guess I am mostly referring to shrooms or pedro, perhaps aya but its been a while, maybe soon. I start to feel so high I get worried i overdid it... I take huge dabs from a huge bong, lol. Now I smoke before ingestion and maybe another hit early on to combat nausea, but then I wait until I know I've peaked and then smoke like there is no tomorrow. Its just pre-peak that sends me for a loop.
Anyways it's always 4:20 somewhere.
