LA Confidential is one of those laid back strains that packs a nice little 'punch'!
The key here folks is supplier. I had some LA a couple months ago from one dispensary in town and it was meh. Got the most recent bag from a place a little further out and holy Hannah! Much better quality = much better effect. Ok seems logical but not kidding I almost didn't pick it up b/c of my previous experience. Even after 25 years of using cannabis I still need the occasional reminders about these things lol
So here's what I liked most about this strain relative to my pain... it relaxes me enough off the top that I get some relief of pain not just from my ability to chill mentally but also physically. With some 'new to me' acute nerve pain, this strain actually broke through and made a difference.
I've not written a post in a while cause I've been dealing with spinal problems. Needless to say, along with my severe osteoarthritis, waiting for my knee replacement, my rebuilt other knee, my calcific tendinitis in my shoulders, my skin challenges, and fighting depression, I now have ongoing sciatica with nerve pain & numbness in my leg. Walking with a limp for so long has wrecked my low back :( So after hospital x3 I've been on muscle relaxers, opiates, anti-inflammatories, acetominophin, gaba- pentin, and the physical therapist has me walking with a cane. It's been about 1.5- 2 months since this all started. I've gradually lowered and lowered the pain meds to a point where I can still work p/t and do a few other things with minimal meds and more cannabis. I'm a Sativa queen who has very quickly crammed up on Indica info as a result of my changing medical and pain needs.
LA Confidential helped my underlying or parasympathetic nervous system chill as well as my conscience mind. I take a nerve pain blocker right now but that doesn't mean the pain is gone- I just can't feel it sometimes. My body still knows it's there and it makes it very challenging for effective pain relief and rest. This strain- when good quality- hit me in the "chiller" so to speak. In minutes I felt my spine muscles relax and my back adjusted naturally. That's a sign to me I'm relaxing. My headache faded and I felt happier in a mellow kind of way. I don't like the after high munchies, but for those who have mild to moderate appetite issues this is a good one to try.
Recreationally I would use this one around a campfire or on a fishing boat in the sun. Would pair well with a light beer or a cider. Best of the west right here!
Peace peeps.
Unfortunately. I chose this strain to fall asleep but I stayed fairly awake. It wasn’t bad though. I wasn’t anxious about not sleeping and I didn’t get too munchie, just enough to make sure I eat dinner xD
Felt very creative and it was amazing for listening to music. Fun strain to chill out yet I don’t feel like I have to be lazy which I loved.

This smoke was so good. Probably one of the best I've ever had. Went down very smoothly and left a wintergreen taste. Aroma didn't last long and was a perfect high. I recommend this with good friends and be ready to have the time of your life. You'll be high as a damn plane.
Excellent Pain Management. Great for Arthiritis.
Here’s my review of LA Confidential, a skunky but sweet indica. Keep in mind I’m no longer really a huge fan of indicas too.
My first three hits, about 10 minutes in and my eyes are feeling heavy and I’m feeling content and heavily relaxed.
Sudden urge to do my commission work instead of gaming.
I don’t feel too tired but I can see how it can put low tolerance bbys into a deep sleep.
All in all pretty potent for someone with a tolerance like mine.
(Replaced by a gross Primo cart they gave us.)
I have a really euphoric feeling in my head.

Good for insomnia. It is smooth and puts me to sleep.
But for me it’s not an exciting strain and just kind a dull but it does what it’s supposed to do for me.
