Edibles are a good choice, but sometimes it can be overwhelming, especially when you take too much. You should try micro dose vaping. Just put really small amount of herb 0.10-0.20, even this can be too much. Cannabis micro dosing isn't very popular, but if you actually do it for longer period, you really get the benefits while still being relatively sober. You also save money.

You should be very happy that you have the change to be a medical marijuana user. In some countries you can go to jail for a single joint. Appreciate the small things. :)
