Method/use: I smoke this as a treatment for symptoms of depression. Positives: This strain has, quite literally, been a lifesaver. Most commonly I'll use this when I'm experiencing intrusive thoughts (suicidal ideation, self-harm urges, etc.). The high from this strain consistently flips my mood from negative and hopeless to positive and excited about life. It also helps me to put things into perspective which, if you've dealt with severe depression, you know can be extremely difficult in the moment. (This perspective shifting effect combined with a marked boost in creative thought has made for some awesome and often cathartic art projects, too!) I also use this to stop my borderline personality disorder episodes in their tracks, but that has been a bit more hit and miss so I can't recommend it for that except to say that it might be worth a shot. Negatives: -Very little physical pain relief, in my experience. -Dry eyes -Mild paranoia as the high sets in, but it's easy enough to shift my focus to something else now that I know to expect it. Would recommend giving this strain a shot if you're dealing with major depressive disorder, but be careful if you're also hypersensitive to THC/psychotropics in general like I am. In that case, a little of this will go a LONG way and too much can make the paranoia mentioned above a bit more difficult to deal with.
