vaporizers - help!

[sandypossum]

I partake of the leafy herb most nights. Even my specialist admits - albeit reluctantly! - that it's less addictive and has less side effects than anti-anxiety medication. I like it because it is like a total mindfulness drug for me. It makes me focus completely on the present moment. I forget about all the horrors of the past, don't even think about the issues in the future, and for a few hours I am just right here, right now. There's the added bonus of it being a pain reliever, and I often have physical pain due to whatever, or tight muscles due to stress. I also suffer from nausea regularly, and it stops that too. All up, a helpful plant.

I am trying to stop smoking tobacco now, and bought a Magic Flight Box, then a Pax 2 vaporizer. In both cases... nothing. Lost some physical coordination and felt slightly woozy, but to quote Beatrix Kiddo in Kill Bill, "euphoria? no." Also no focus, no in-the-moment thing. So I am back to the old-fashioned method.

I feel massively disappointed and once again wonder why things that work for everyone else do not work for me. I have no idea how to find out about this sort of thing, but figure amongst the Cellarites there are bound to be some who know about these things. Also, I feel able to discuss it here without being judged. Haven't been here much for a long time, though, and don't know if the Cellar is still the non-judgemental place it used to be. I hope so, as I have no other forums where I could ask.

Hope one of you knows and can offer advice.
