Sounds like a good theory to me too. Someone once wrote on these boards that the key to good MMJ dosing is using small amounts on a regular basis. I find that the times when I'm smoking more than usual are the times that it feels like it might be making me depressed.
I like to envision my body as a marsh, able to remove toxins at a certain rate. MMJ like all drugs is a toxin, and the key is finding a dosage that's effective but also less than the body's capacity to clean it out. If I take in more than my body can clean out, then it starts building up in my system too much and I get too many side effects. MMJ more than other drugs tends to build up in the system because it's stored in the fat cells, so more than other drugs it's important to keep the dosage low, because the body is not only cleaning out your last dose but also all the other doses stored in the fat cells.
