Question About Intermittent Usage

So I'm sure there isn't a blanket answer but I'd like a general idea if someone can provide their thoughts.

I usually smoke a blend Friday night, Saturday & Sunday and then take the weekdays off. I dont smoke a lot, literally put a few flakes in the bowl and smoke till I feel lifted.

On my off days I feel no withdrawal symptoms other than a slightly down mood.

My question is how many days on could I go before I start getting into dangerous waters and also how many days off would I need to get back to baseline?

By no fault of your own, you're asking a nearly impossible question to accurately answer unless you can provide the exact name of the chemical on your blend. If you were asking about JWH-018 or any of the other legacy compounds, I could tell you some decent personal history about use, withdrawal and a return to baseline timeline. But now, with the chems that are compromising these blends, it's anyone's guess. I can tell you that modern day "legal" blends are a very slippery slippery slope into a bad situation comprised of withdrawal symptoms, overwhelming re-dosing urges and a some weird effects on your general health / well being.

With all of that said, I was once like you when it came to the legacy blends comprised of JWH-018, JWH-073, AM-2201, JWH-019, JWH-250, etc. Occasional to infrequent use, no withdrawal symptoms, no health issues and no problems overall. But now, years later, I tried two blends available on the west coast and after a week I knew I had a whole different monster had me by the ass. I was acting like a crack-head and had horrible withdrawal symptoms when I eventually stopped. As I've said before, I'm lucky I didn't end up dead, hospitalized or jailed.

You need to develop a set of rules for yourself regarding the frequency of use, amount and activities to never do while using them. (ie. driving, attending important functions, etc) Once you find yourself bending or breaking those rules, you're on your way into bad, bad territory in quick fashion. Stop. The problem with modern day blends is that it grabs you by the head so hard you don't care about rules and you simply cannot stop until things are way beyond control.

Beware.

Appreciate the response and I agree with all that was said about setting up rules.
