Effects

Whether you’re a novice or experienced cannabis user, you’ll want to be careful with how much you’re consuming with Gas Mask. Just a couple tokes can go a long way, and it’s pretty long lasting. Users might first notice a tingling sensation that first starts off at the temples, and a more trippy psychedelic, cerebral state may settle in eventually thereafter that can alter your sense of time. You will feel spacey, but calm and uplifted, and a relaxing sensation will wash over you, lulling you to a dreamlike, sluggish state. The feeling of heaviness will progress, so for the next little while, you’ll more than likely be couch locked and transition towards sedation. Because of this, the strain is recommended for evening use at home. Its uplifting and calming effects make it particularly useful for relieving symptoms of stress, depression, anxiety and PTSD, while its sedative nature can also help manage or alleviate physical pains whether mild or chronic, including headaches, migraines and inflammation. It is also a great treatment for insomnia.
