Does THC increase or decrease consciousness?

[Rahul yadav]

I have few question @Leo Gura and others request you to help me clear this doubt. 

When i try normal extracted cannabis leaf oil with balance of cbd and thc. I get very fast heart rate, not so great high, but i do have consciousness expansion with that. There is some negative tone to it. Which is very different from LSD high i.e more smoother, creative.

1- What is the difference in Synthetic cCannabis / K2 or Spice or are they same? 

2- Should i drop this plant based extract completely and should go for a synthetic one?

This oil sounds like a sketchy thing to me.

Try pure THC-A instead.

These terms are too imprecise. I have not done K2 so can't say.

I am talking about pure cannabinoids like THC-A or THC-B or HHC. These are not K2 or "spice".

Go for pure cannabinoids like above.

Depends entirely on your genetics.

For most people it does not increase consciousness but for some (like me) it does by a lot.

Doesn't just depend on genetics in my experience. I feel like when you take a huge break from it, the first time back is a jump in consciousness. But when you take it every day it actually takes you down and makes you a dumb animal.

I could take it daily and have crazy high consciousness. But it does have tolerance so daily use it not ideal.

I just ordered 12 THC-F gummies, hopefully they're good.

Do you use test kits for your THC-A, or send a sample to a lab to confirm its purity?

My cannabis is thoroughly tested, since it is used for people with serious disabilities and people at end-of-life stages.

With that said, one strong puff kills me momentarily and I experience what God is. This shit can increase your consciousness so much and you’ll want to respect it like it’s a loaded gun. Yeehaw!

It helps increase the fluidity of consciousness. love all around… subtly, yet obviously revealed. nowhere not not to be. 

i thank god for showing me who i am and who you are in everything that you do. you’re so freakin inevitable and pure. no agenda but to just be!

That is not necessary. THC is legally made and sold.
