Suitable Substitute for marijuana?

[asina]

SWIM has been a frequent user for the past 5 months and is finding it hard to stop, especially at night time when he has made it a habit to vapourize a decent bowl and watch TV until he falls asleep in his bed. Is there a substitute that shares the same unharmful and (most importantly) low addictive potential (aka. nonaddictive) properties of weed that gives a high??

SWIM tried vaping tobacco and found it MUCH worse than the smooth effects of weed. And gave me a headache probably due too much of a headrush from vaping it.


SWIM wants to stick with herbs or other natural alternatives, but any suggestion of any substance is helpful.

Thanks.

Depending on legality, Spice is a good substitute, but is rumored to contain a cannabinoid, or so I have heard.

Don't listen to others preaching kava or kratom, should they come here; they are nothing in the world like marijuana. Kratom is an opioid, and could be compared to a weaker, more stimulating painkiller. Kava can be compared to a clear-minded alcohol. Kratom also does have, albeit minor in comparison to others, mild addictive properties. Unsure about that and kratom.


If one is interested, one could look into other cannabinoids. There are quite a few out there, and are peachy legally. Of course, check one's local laws before acting. Also, make sure to research one's cannabinoid; I have read of some cannabinoids that cause respiritory depression, which can be very dangerous.

Last: I believe this has been covered before. Just for the sake of saying it, please search for similar topics before starting a new thread.

Hope that all helps!

My suggestion is getting some LOTUS 20X extract. It's a safe, harmless herb that will uplift your mood, give you a strong head-buzz, and will aid in sleeping if that's your goal. Its totally legal and can be bought at your local convenience store, headshop, or if all else fails a wide variety of online stores, hope this helps.

Have you heard of salvia? Its a natural herb and I don't think that it's illegal so you can buy it from loads of on line websites. I haven't used it so I cannot recommend it and I'd suggest researching it before you try it. It seems to be closer to LSD than cannabis in its effects though.
