Harlequin reviews

Let’s rename this housecleanin’! Wow. I was able to focus, pain free, on tasks I haven’t attended to in a long time - like reorganizing cabinets and vacuuming crevices under the couch cushions. Not too heady, just good. Any thought that came to my head, I just compartmentalized and said, “ It’s ok. Just let it go. It’s ok. Definitely going to be a wake and bake for me!

Rating this strain is difficult for me because I have heard nothing but good things about it; so I'm sure Harlequin is wonderful- however, for myself, I found that it brought about some intense anxiety and uncomfortable introspection. Physically, my heart was racing way too fast and all around I just felt BAD, and I was praying for the effects to wear off. Now, I suffer from PTSD, and certain strains are capable of throwing me into anxiety, paranoia, uncomfortable self-consciousness and hyper-vigilance. I have seen that after discussing with a budtender that I have PTSD and am prone to the symptoms mentioned above; alot of budtenders, in their recommendations, tend to gravitate towards high cbd strains- generally also low in thc. Well, what I have figured out about this is that a strain high in cbd low in thc does NOT automatically make it appropriate or compatible with someone suffering from PTSD and/or anxiety, hyper-vigilance, social-akwardness whatever etc. I hope more budtenders learn to identify compatible terpenes and cannabinoids and make recommendations that way. I have found high thc strains, sativas, and sativa dominant ones that do wonders for me,(Bruce Banner3) though indicas and indica dom. hybrids carry the majority of my favorites (Obama and Apple Kush, and GSC for example)and i believe its a matter of the particular strains having specific traits that complement my psychology and physiology and are just generally compatible. To be fair, though, everyone is different. Everyone's experience is different; so it's very difficult to guess what will happen between a specific strain and person. You've pretty much got to try it out... Hope this helps somebody out there! And again, I chose 3 stars because it didn't agree with ME, but I know that Harlequin deserves her 5 stars with other patients. Thanks!

I have crippling anxiety. Been smoking weed for ~20 years, and recently my anxiety and paranoia have been through the roof after a bunch of stressful life events. I was going to stop smoking weed beacause every strain has been making me freak out... And then I found out about Harlequin. Holy crap. Just the right amount of THC to balance out the high CBD content to make you feel better. It seriously is the only strain of marijuana that I can smoke and not feel too weird to go into a store and do some shopping or whatever I need to do. It doesn't slow me down or make me anxious AT ALL. Works well for pain, although occasionally I'll get a mild headache from it but it doesn't last too long. I am so thrilled that my local dispensary was offering this to the recreational patients, as I decided against getting a medical card. Such a great strain. Five thumbs up!

I gotta say there was a lot of hype so I threw it on the list. My first couple hits, I was waiting for effects which took about 5-10min. The starting effect is a light buzz (2 beers). About 15 minutes after that you slowly start to notice a calmness slow filling the room. Coming at you from all sides. Before you know it your air bubble pops and everything is very calm. The best part is your buzz lowers so you’re functional for small projects. But there’s the focus and productivity that comes with it. Must-have in stash especially for a Monday.

Used this today. I noticed that I was distracted and panicky for the first 30-45 minutes. For the next hour I was just barely high enough to say stupid things and not realize it. I was jittery most of the day and it lasted around 5 hours. The pain relief is wonderful but a little too high for me. I'll have to get creative to fix it.

This is an excellent strain to have with your morning coffee. Light and lifting but yet feel the stress and pain flow out to start your day🌞

Great strain for my Fibro pain and inflammation issues. I have to smoke this in daytime or hours before bed, as it tends to keep me awake and focused. Also calms stress and anxieties for me. I like the smooth flavor and mellow high.

Almost magic effect on my benign essential tremor! Tincture leaves almost no head high at all, but vaping got me fairly high. Had a vape hit before bed and was really very restless trying to sleep--definitely a daytime strain for me. I'm seeking a clear-headed treatment, and this one seems to be exactly that. In terms of pain relief, I'd say it was moderate to very good--aware of pain but didn't care. Didn't do much for my methadone-induced nausea, however. After trying about 10 different strains for medical effects, this is by far my favorite!! Thanks to The Standard in Holistic Medicine in Graham, WA
