A little heady, no couch lock, pain, and anxiety relief.
This strain just makes me feel good. Which is not an easy feat. I have RA, Myositis, and fibromyalgia. So needless to say, I am always in pain. I have good days and bad, but I always have a varying level of pain. I also have PTSD, and I am usually on high alert. This just mellowed me out and took all the pain away. My hands weren’t swollen and tight either like they used to be. I could actually enjoy life. It does have a few minutes of a derpy stupor in the beginning, but then I’m all set to conquer the world. Or maybe just the laundry, but still. I feel fantastic with this.
The only downside is, I can totally feel when it starts to wear off. First, in my knees, I’ll feel pain. Then it just works its way all over. My hands and feet started to swell back up, and my mood started to shift. It’s probably a good 3 to 4 hours of relief, but man does it suck when it wears off. Kind of reminds you how much pain you’re really in, emotionally and physically. I’d stay high 24/7 if I could. I’d be able to go back to work because this is definitely a functional high.
For most people, this will probably make you sleepy. If you have an anxiety issue and/or are always on high alert, like me, you probably won’t get sleepy. Just relaxed to a “normal” state. Also, I actually took this because I was feeling nauseous, and it happened to be next to me. So it works for that too. Does give a bit of dry mouth.
