helps me concentrate less on the current ptsd panic attack
Flavor:
Thick and heavy smoke but it tastes like grape soda, earthy too. It tastes like the color purple.
High:
Very relaxed and somewhat focused at a small dose. Everything became simpler, with less anxiety. A little sleepy too, but these feelings amplify the more you take. More of an end of day, nighttime strain. Overwhelmed by thoughts and background noise in your mind? This is the strain for you. At a low dose it’s almost like you’re in Autopilot or cruise control. Great for sleep, eliminates 3am thoughts that keep you up at night.
Overall:
+Very relaxing and anxiety reducing
+Simplifies the world around you
+Pairs great with a mundane activity like laying down on the couch.
+/- Sleepy
+/-This strain will banish you to the couch realm if you underestimate it
-Very thick smoke, so hydrate your throat and get ready to cough
I've waited a while to get my hands on some authentic GDP for a while now, that being said I was finally able to. The strain admits a scrumptious, sweet, almost grape-like aroma when fresh and gives even better flavor when vaporized. This strain is top notch, its effects are both cerebrally euphoric and physically relaxing which offers great relief for body aches whilst keeping your mind stimulated.
Usually weed triggers my anxiety and panic attacks so I had stopped smoking for a while, then I made a bunch of research and found this strain and since the first time I’ve smoked my anxiety had never been triggered actually the opposite! This weed is helping me so much in a period of high stress and insomnia. I sleep better, I feel calmer and happier!
Oh and it tastes great too!
By far my favorite strain, very nice smell & look, great indica, after a bowl instantly locked in the couch after raiding the fridge, great for pain relief, depression, & sleep, highly recommend this strain
As a person who has CPTSD, anxiety, and ADHD, GDP has been such a good way to unwind after a long day. The effects from this strain leaves you feeling more relaxed, comfy, and sleepy. Definitely a really good night strain or after-hours strain. Also, if you have “weed anxiety” like I do, this strain is GREAT for beginners and veterans alike! 😊🤎
I have had severe "buzzing and tingling" in my feet since having chemo over two years ago. I vaped this upon receipt and, in repose, THE BUZZING WAS GONE!!! NOTHING including a designer drug costing over $800/month could do this. It is the real deal for neuropathy sufferers. Try it and see if you don't agree. IT'S THE BEST!
Note: I myself am on the autism spectrum, and find it can be hard to find information of how weed affects neurodivergent folk like myself, so I hope the insight of this autistic girl (I'm pointing at myself. I'm really stoned so I think I'm funny (stoned on GDP, in fact!)) might help others like me. That said, everyone is different, so what helps me may or may not help you. <3
I suffer from frequent headaches, occasional migraines, insomnia from time to time, and chronic depression and anxiety. Grandaddy Purple is pretty much my best friend when it comes to dealing with any of the above for me, to the point where my partner has started jokingly saying "thanks grandaddy!" when I use this strain and it helps me feel better.
A very stony high to be sure, and lovely, fruity terpines to relax and soothe you into a blissful, dreamy state. Within about 10 minutes of vaping or smoking GDP, all my pain is just *gone* (meaning GDP does the seemingly impossible for me; kills headaches that conventional painkillers can't) and I'm just kind of chill, happy, and relaxed.
I've also found that if I get "too high" on a high-energy sativa or hybrid, GDP is the perfect antidote, and in no time Grandaddy can put a bad high back on track and turn it into a pleasant one for me. I've also used it for pain in combination with CBD oil to make up for GDP's low CBD content.
All in all, from the amusing name to the rich terpine profile, painkilling potential, and a really enjoyable, relaxed happy high, I very highly recommend Grandaddy Purple. An excellent indica all around.
