Good luck to all the people who swear they're not addicted to their THC drinks, gummies, etc.

"Last month, Congress banned all intoxicating hemp products, a slew of THC-infused smokeable, vape-able, and edible products that are derived from hemp plants but could be mistaken for actual marijuana. In many cases, the drinks are just as potent as conventional weed." So who's gonna quit and who's gonna start going to the dispensaries? Some resources for those thinking about quitting (because you might be surprised how addicted you were and what the withdrawals are actually like as you detox): https://marijuana-anonymous.org/pamphlet/about-marijuana-detox/ https://marijuana-anonymous.org/pamphlet/detox-member-stories/ |

https://www.congress.gov/crs-product/IN12620 2025 Change to Hemp Definition In November 2025, P.L. 119-37 amended the definition of hemp under Title 7, Section 1639o, of the U.S. Code, changing the limit to a total THC concentration of less than 0.3% on a dry weight basis rather than only delta-9 THC. The Senate Appropriations Committee stated that the changes to the definition of hemp were made to prevent "the unregulated sale of intoxicating" hemp products in light of concerns surrounding the proliferation of hemp cannabinoid products. The new definition of hemp explicitly includes industrial hemp, which generally is hemp grown for non-cannabinoid purposes, while making a number of explicit exclusions, such as seeds from a cannabis plant that exceed a total THC concentration of 0.3%, intermediate hemp-derived products with more than 0.3% total THC concentration, and final hemp-derived cannabinoid products containing more than 0.4 milligrams of THC per container. The new hemp definition also excludes hemp-derived cannabinoid products that contain cannabinoids that are not capable of being naturally produced by the cannabis plant or are capable of being naturally produced and were synthesized or manufactured outside the plant. The new definition will take effect November 12, 2026. Additionally, the law requires FDA within 90 days of enactment to publish lists of naturally occurring cannabinoids, THC class cannabinoids, and all known cannabinoids that have similar effects as THC class cannabinoids. FDA is also to further define the term container. |

That's why their manufacturers are up in arms against this new bill. This whole industry goes away unless something gets changed before... 2027, I think it is? |

I love delta 8, take a couple nights per week to help with sleep. Has made a big difference in my life. I will stock up before next November. |

I’m at the point that if congress, the prez and in many cases the supreme court say do one thing, i’m doing the other. Especially if it relates to the sciences.
So, doesn’t affect me at all. |

A lot of those goods were already federally illegal. Realistically, t's not going to change anything.
The whole thing is dumb, frankly. A pure ban just keeps them from imposing safety regulations (like childproof packaging and testing requirements) and denies tax revenue. They're just creating wild west situation. |

| I’ve never taken any of the delta-8 products, seemed too sketchy even if it was legal. It’s not like it’s hard to go get gummies made from real weed at an actual dispensary. |

Yes, Maryland. If you live in DC or VA, we are just a short drive away. It's not a big deal. |

I don't do well with weed, Delta-8 products are much more effective and gentle for me. |

| Big alcohol and big pharma lobbies are hard at work. |

Delta-8 is no less addictive than other cannabinoids. If it's easier for you to use, it's probaby easier for you to develop a habit/addiction. |
