After hearing so much about Delta-8 as a milder alternative to Delta 9 cannabis, and since now I actually work for a hemp/cannabis company, I decided to give it a try. As someone relatively new to the hemp and cannabis experience, I was curious but also a bit nervous about what to expect. I decided to start with a small dose of Delta-8 gummies, which I’d heard offered a more manageable high. About an hour after taking it, I began to feel a gentle wave of relaxation come over me. The “high” was noticeable but not overwhelming—just a pleasant feeling that made everything seem a little clearer. I felt a little more focused, which was a nice surprise, as I was expecting to feel more spaced out. The overall experience was calming, and I found myself enjoying simple things like listening to music or watching TV.
One thing that stood out to me was how comfortable and in control I felt throughout. There was none of the anxiety or paranoia that I’ve heard can accompany traditional THC products. Instead, Delta-8 provided an enjoyable experience that felt perfect for a beginner. By the time it began to wear off, I was feeling pleasantly tired and ready to sleep. So, my first Delta-8 experience was a positive one, and I’m looking forward to exploring it more deeply. For anyone curious about cannabis but hesitant to dive into that deep end, I’d definitely recommend giving Delta-8 a try—it’s a great way to ease into the experience.
Best,
