The Cannabis Maturation Effect: Why Weed Hits Different After 30

I’ve noticed this pattern consistently among longtime cannabis users, and a recent Reddit thread confirmed I’m not alone. The question posed was simple: “Anyone else feel like weed hits different as you get older?” The responses overwhelmed the thread—hundreds of people describing the exact same phenomenon. Used to get giggly and social, now more chill and contemplative. Used to seek adventure, now seek reflection. Used to be about external experiences, now about internal exploration.
