Medical marijuana has helped so many people find relief for ailments of all kinds. Whether you're having trouble with anxiety or chronic pain, there's a strain of marijuana that'll help to sooth your discomforts. Unfortunately, trying new strains isn't always as fun as one might think it would be – it could leave you feeling a little more buzzed than you'd like. Here, you'll find a few tips that'll help you get the relief that you need when the buzz has taken you too far.

Stay Away from Alcohol

The absolute worst thing that you can do to yourself when you're feeling too buzzed is to drink any alcoholic beverages. You might think that it'll help to bring you back down, but the truth is, it'll cause the effects of the THC in your blood system to actually multiply, leaving you feeling even more buzzed.

If you've been drinking, don't try any new strains since you can't be sure how they are going to hit you.

Edibles work Slowly

Anything that you consume by mouth will take longer to hit you than preparations that you smoke or vape. Don't continue munching on the edibles until you've reached the desired effects. Give it at least 30 minutes to catch up with you after you've consumed it – the delay could be greater than a half hour for capsules.

Tip: Talk with the professionals at the recreational dispensary to find out how long it takes for each of their edible items to hit you. They will be able to give you a general idea of what to expect in a set amount of time and help you avoid over-consuming the edibles.

Stay Hydrated

Keep drinking water. Not only will it prevent dehydration, but it will help to keep your mind busy and manage your buzz. If you feel yourself getting uncomfortably buzzed, get a large glass of water. Take a sip, count to ten – take another sip, count to twelve – another sip, count to fourteen, and so on. If you give your mind something to focus on, it'll help you to quit dwelling on the level of your buzz and bring you back down to reality a bit.

Honestly, the best thing for you to do to avoid getting too buzzed from new products is to talk at length with the professionals at the dispensary. They are educated on each strain and will help you find the exact strain that'll provide you with the relief that you need without making you feel too buzzed.
