The reality is all drugs by their nature cause changes to the body as soon as they are ingested. The dosage is what causes you to see outward signs of them. A guy who drinks one beer is receiving the sedative the same as the guy who drank 10, the difference is the dose and amount of sedative that leads to the outward signs of drunkenness.

The guy who takes one hit of a joint may be as functional as the guy with one beer in him and no more intoxicated. All drugs and their effects are based on dosage, pot doesn't magically take you to "high" regardless of dosage. High is the pot version of drunk. You can smoke pot and get buzzed similarly to how you can drink a couple beers and get buzzed, or even take a single hit to relax much like someone may drink a single beer after work to relax.

It's the propensity of abuse. Like I said, someone could ingest a small amounts cocaine and be fine.

So where is the line drawn?
