Most terrifying experience of my entire life!!! I was amazed to see that so many people gave this sativa strain 5/5 stars -- some even claiming that it helped their anxiety when I had the complete opposite experience. I was a heavy smoker for a year, took a tolerance break due to getting busted and living in an illegal state, and when I started up again I picked this as my first strain to get back into vaping cannabis... big mistake. I took 1 hit and all was fine. I felt very high and "blissed out." A few hours later I took 2 hits in a row... and that's when it all went downhill. Apparently I said to my husband, "I'm freaking out!! I'm freaking out!!" I kept seeing colors... rolling hills... shapes... a very psychedelic experience that I've never had on weed. At one point I heard a repeating loop of scary music and felt like I was on the brink of "going crazy." I also felt like I "died" and had one of /those/ kinds of experiences. My anxiety was through the roof due to racing adrenaline. My legs were shaking uncontrollably for 2 hours and I kept attributing it to "being cold" but it was definitely a case of "the shakes" due to taking such a long tolerance break. My heart was beating out of my chest and was racing for about 5 hours. I got NO sleep that night and ended up pulling an all-nighter. I had residual anxiety for the rest of the second day and am devastated because I've never had a negative experience on weed, and this one almost made me stop using weed when I find it to be so useful medicinally in treating depression and anxiety. Although it was a terrifying, negative trip all around, I would say it made me appreciate my sober brain very much. Ever since this strain I have avoided sativas and try to smoke things with a decent CBD/THC ratio.
