Sometimes we accidentally enjoy a little too much of a great edibles recipe because it tastes so good, or we simply lose track of time during a session. Whether you have a sudden meeting at your child's school, a job interview, or you simply want to bring yourself back to baseline, there are ways to manage the psychoactive effects of THC. Whatever the reason, it is easy to regain control. Here are the most effective techniques to help you feel like yourself again.
4 Tips for Managing Overconsumption
-
Use CBD: CBD is one of the most effective tools for reducing the intense psychoactive effects of THC. Smoking a CBD pre-roll or taking a few hits from a CBD vape pen can almost instantly help your mind and body return to a grounded state. You will likely still feel calm and relaxed, which is a welcome result when you are trying to de-escalate.
-
Eat a Balanced Meal: You are likely hungry anyway, so reach for something delicious. A bowl of yogurt with fresh fruit and a drizzle of honey, or a savory meal, can help. When your blood sugar rises as you eat, it can help lower the intensity of the THC. Just be careful—do not accidentally eat more cannabis edibles while trying to come down!
-
Take a Shower or Bath: Doing this while too high can be incredibly relaxing and helps offset tachycardia (a fast heart rate), which can be uncomfortable. If you have the time, try soaking in a bath with a CBD bath bomb to soothe your body and lessen the psychoactive effects of THC while you regain your peace of mind.
-
Exercise: Getting physical, even if it is just a short, brisk walk around the block, can help metabolize THC faster. Movement also increases endorphins in your brain, which will help decrease the intensity of the experience and shift your focus.
