An exceptional strain with excellent benefits for anxiety patients. I use cannabis recreationally but also to treat generalized anxiety disorder and OCD invasive thoughts. Captains Cake is just what the doctor ordered. If you check the terpene profile on this strain, you’ll find it’s high in limonene and Caryophyllene, and low in alpha-pinene. Exactly what I’m looking for. Captains Cake provides an intense sedating effect on the body. Mentally speaking this strain has an interesting way of focusing your mind but restraining it enough to prevent overthinking or paranoia. Not great if you want to be active — this is for unwinding at the end of a long day or for clamping down on anxiety when it crops up. It won’t necessarily knock you out but I can tell it’s designed for deep relaxation. Listen to music, meditate, watch your cat groom herself for ten minutes, that’s what this is for. Don’t hit Captains Cake and try to work on your dissertation. The quality of the buds I got were exceptional. Sticky, dense, frosty buds. It has an incredibly pleasing aroma that’s lemony and sweet. Can not recommend Captains Cake enough if you’re looking for an anti-anxiety medication. This is top shelf cannabis. If you see it, try it.

My budtender described Bordello as "a shammy for your brain." That's not an inaccurate description of the strain's cognitive effects. It's very uplifting mentally, but physically it's like a deep muscle tissue massage. Just gets into your muscles. Makes music sound better! But I gotta say, the Bordello I picked up in preroll from my local dispensary tastes like cigarettes. Very unpleasant, unless you're into old cigarette taste. Maybe I got a bad batch? It has a pleasant psychoactive effect, so it's not total bunk, but yeah it tastes like an ash try. Not great.

Provides a wonderful calming, mellow high. Eases anxiety and gently just lays you out, relaxes your muscles and turns down the volume in your brain. Great strain to unwind with at the end of the day. Not super fragrant, but has resin-heavy, dense buds. Very mild, but I’m not always looking for a heavy experience.

Fragrant, beautiful tight buds. But buyer beware: as other reviewers have noted, this is NOT a good strain if you have anxiety or are otherwise prone to anxiety/paranoia. I smoked this last night and it exacerbated my anxiety so much that I was literally afraid to fall asleep because of nightmares. I was worried about people breaking into my house. Not good times. If you don't have chronic/severe anxiety or a history of anxiety related conditions, then this may be a good time. Uplifting, inspiring creativity, etc. But I can't attest to any of that because I was crippled by paranoia. Tread lightly. Know your body and your mind.
