So when I was with my previous clinic and asked for a raise of my allowance as I was running short every month I was told I should be having a tolerance break 2-3 days a month... Anyone actually do this or was this just a mask to cover the fact he wasn't increasing my allowance? I can't imagine anything worse than a tolerance break...

Some people do them regularly but it what's suits each individual I'd say but if anything I just go easy sometimes but I use a fair bit of lower THC usually anyway but for people who have their symptoms present 24 hours a day it'd be a bit of a struggle ,the last tolerance break I had coincided with a few nightmares which I was unaware I even suffered so it probably is an individual thing , but it is right to try and keep on top of it one way or another 🙏
 
I don't do this

Yeah tolerance breaks don't work for me, Mamedica® mentioned it to me when I was with them "make sure you schedule a tolerance break each month"

I asked if they could let me know which day of the month I wasn't going to be autistic, wasn't going to have ADHD, wasn't going to be anxious, wasn't going to struggle with AT LEAST 50% of what I have to navigate each day, wasn't going to have a pain flare up, etc, etc. They just mumbled and moved on to the next question on the check-list

Then again I'm not sure what I expected since you don't speak to an actual doctor there very often as I understand it. My current clinic I speak to a consultant every time and they never said this

In any case, I do have tolerance breaks in a sense, because I have at least 3 strains every day, and try to vary also from day to day to prevent strain-lock - which comes on insanely fast for me - I usually have 10+ strains available at one time to counter this

Just sounds like some mindless backside covering bullshit to be honest that, when being said to a patient, isn't taking the patient's circumstances and conditions into account, it's simply statement/question #15 on the list to have to say

Yeah I feel like its read straight from a textbook with no physical understanding of the matter...

yeah I will add that on a given day I will virtually always try and use as little as possible
 
I feel I know what I need day in day out when it comes to consumption, recently learned that my tolerance ain't as high as I thought though when a few of the higher THC Indica Hybrid strains have knocked me out....

Yeah exactly, it depends what state I'm in that day, what symptoms are most prevalent, and so what and how much am I using is based on that

I tend to start with lower THC on the Sativa end and work up to only high THC Indica end at bedtime

Getting on to medical ruined the whole recreational element of it for me!

But in a good way (y)

I still havent even tried a Sativa yet on MC, I've always avoided them like the plague to be honest but I'm really thinking about giving it a shot now atleast for during the day... Some of the stuff I've got is quite heavy duty especially for just waking up to

I don't do T-breaks but I do occasionally have weeks of drastically reducing my consumption and/or strength.

Sometimes I get real intense head fog that doesn't shift for weeks. Then I know I need to bring it in a little.
